    I did that in a year in my 328i. I do prefer the 6's over the 4's, not just for power but reliability. They are indestructible.

    Surprised you haven't heard of them before Wikipedia Article Name just didn't ring a bell. I have tried a pair.

    I personally prefer to buy from a camera company and not an electronics manufacturer. It is all in the lense, but as for which I'd have no idea at this point.

    not alot most can be made fairly easily and im willing to go that route Umm, not really. To build a LP, a HP, and an Lpad you could easily have well over $75 in parts. It will be cheaper to get a little amplifier. Plus if you truly want to do a crossover right you will need more than $100 in measurement gear. It will be by far cheapest in the long run to buy an amp and sell it when you don't need it anymore.

    and of course how is little dre?

    How's life dre?
  8. You don't need a 6.5" midrange if you add a midbass driver. Just a little 3" would be fine. I'd put the midbass driver in the door and the midrange and tweeter in your kicks.

    ultimate ears?
  10. 8w, you power hog
  11. Depends on the rest of your install. Personally I'd get the Cascade version if I were to get one. On a side, you should really probably adjust your crossover frequencies on your mid. 130hz is way too high as is 5k

  16. I have zero tolerance for people who are selling a product and specifically give you advice saying that it doesn't do something it can or does do something it can't. An, "I am not sure, but will check" is always acceptable but what he did is complete bullsh*t. That is the sort of thing that makes all sales people look bad and even worse if it is an owner of a store. I'd say screw that store. It is a shame he is so closed minded as well. Considering people who are using drivers such as the OP spend time on the install and making things right, he should realize that the best and most profitable thing his store can sell is installation. And since it is BY FAR the most important part of the install he should have seen the dollar signs and offered to help. Of course this is exactly part of what is wrong and killing the car audio industry as many of the people in it shouldn't be.

    Gotta love institutes of learning, you have time to write custom code and stuff.

    A couple of my employees used to be technical application engineers there, what do you need? Surprisingly enough I got in touch with a woman who seems competent. What I need is the copy of the old software that we had to run the digital front end on the 400k turret press that SATEC rebuilt in '97. The software is obsolete but I'm trying to get them to see if they have an old copy somewhere we could get, and if we can't she is trying to look up all the specs on it to see if we could even upgrade to the new software for the machine. The kicker is we need to have it operational by next friday. We could get it done by sticking another pressure transducer on the pressure bladder at the bottom and hooking it up to a Keithley data acquisition unit and get it to work for us but we want to fix it right and be done with it. In a perfect world we would get all servo control hydraulics with MTS gear on it instead of the old manual control valves, but no way in hell that could get done in a week. Acquisition and control are two very different things; glad you found someone who can help. I really doubt that I could find old software for you, but technical help I know I could. We can still make it go up but we have no way to read the data off.... Ah, the Keithley sort of a bitch to get data off though. <-- hates non-pc based acquisition systems

    *drools I LOLed loud enough to get my boss to come by my desk. =X that thing is so goofy looking. I love it. we could go test drive it
  20. Unless you are mounting a sub IB in a house, going with a cone that big makes absolutely no sense to me. The box size trade-off at that point just isn't worth it. On top of that no one buys subs that size so you are right in that it is unrealistic.

    Then get a cheap used amp for the components and sell it when the rest of your stuff comes in. It should only cost you shipping which is trivial. If you only use a "bassblocker" that is going to sound like complete ass.
  22. I think if you did measurements before and afterwards you would find that it is all in your head that the peak changed. It is NOT possible for Ensolite to help out that wavelength at all. would said speaker tweeker pad have any effect? At a 125hz, nope
  23. And double check your wiring. If you run you midrange amp outputs to your tweeters you will have issues. Always start with the gains all the way down and play around with things at a really low volume.
