    Makes you realize how "smart" they are.
  2. Depth is more my concern than diameter, how far can you kick it out?
  3. It isn't even that impressive in the right size enclosure much less when it is choked.
  4. You aren't going to be able to do what you ask. You should really just describe your goals and budget and let us push you in the right direction.
  5. Yep, they meant LOC which is why I asked why you wanted to know. The next time you make a topic make it more specific and you will get a much better answer. No doubt on the eD crap, those bastards lie like hell and shouldn't be allowed to do business.
  6. In particular with the L7 which not only isn't loud in a sealed enclosure but sounds like crap. Out of all drivers to seal, that is the opposite of one that you should try it to. A different enclosure will really, really open that thing up.

    The solution is easy, make crimes with guns have ridiculous punishment. Trying to remove the guns that are already proliferated around is IMPOSSIBLE but addressing the issues that this creates is not. As far as I am concerned, life in prison with no parole for any gun related crime. Hell capital punishment is fine with me. I am sure that the number of gun crimes would go down, way down. And as you nearly state in a post or two there is a direct correlation with decreased gun crimes and allowing people to carry. Pretty much has happened everywhere and as you state the opposite is true as well. Removing them from the market will only "protect" the innocent, what we need to do is address the criminal.

    He has also supported a ban on the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns :lame: The Democrats this year are basically Woodrow Wilson/FDR clones And the only reason the history book has anything nice to say about FDR was because of the path that Hoover laid for him.

    I am actually shocked at who the liberals are promoting, for the first time since Reagan they have a chance to not only take control for 4 years but really switch the power. Of course to do that they would have to pick someone who on the outside looked rather centrist and instead they pick a Socialist and a Communist to duke it out. Frickin' retarded. At this point a social liberal who had some economic conservative sense would be uber logical. Dumb asses.

    I am sure it wasn't worth the read.
  13. Not getting the bass you are looking for isn't very specific. What exactly don't you like and what exact enclosure did you have it in. First and foremost we need a baseline to understand your issues.
  14. For a 2 way, I really like a driver with some throw and pretty much they are deeper than 3" As an aside the Alpine W205/B Bird will control the H701. Not that you want to start over though.
  15. Not even close to the same use.
  16. link?

    Cash can actually sometimes hurt the negotiation as they make money in finance. I'd actually tell them you plan to finance with them and when it comes time in finance pay cash. What will make the salesman move is to be firm with your offers and 100% prepared to walk away if you don't get the deal you want. 9 out of 10 car deals I make, I get up to leave at least 2x in the process of negotiating. So I am guessing that the money made financing through them goes higher up than anyone concerned with cutting me a deal (dealership included) ... Well it is another way for them to make money. If you pay cash they get the same amount if you write the check, another bank writes the check, or a credit union writes the check. If they finance, you might get approved for 5% and they charge you 6.5% (as an example) guess where that extra 1.5% goes?
  19. Z1 does not have crossovers, those are "protection" cross points. Heck, those are hardly adequate for a sub 3" will severely limit what drivers you can use. Can you fit a large format in the a-pillar or just the kick?

    mmm, dark and oily.
  21. Jeremy you need a tripod And send me some of those M80 like things.
  22. Most definitely. Why do you ask?
  23. You really, really, really should not do anything until you now how much airspace you have. If you assume wrong no matter what you buy could end up sounding like complete ass. The first thing to know in any install are the installation parameters and for a subwoofer that is how much space you can give it. Choking a sub will murder its response.
  24. IMO there is a huge disadvantage running active with just a simple crossover. An electronic processor is a huge benefit, nearly necessary if you ask me in particular for a 3 way setup. The H701 is a bit overkill for a simple 2 way though as you don't need all that processing, but considering you already have a headunit it is hard for me to recommend another processor that doesn't overlap what you already have. Of course a somewhat cheap, but unusual recommendation might be to run a separate headunit to be used as a crossover. You could take the outputs of your current one into a used 880prs, Eclipse, Alpine or another h/u that can do 2 way active. Not as clean as an offboard proc, but way more processing power than an XM6 and that you need. I am also still very curious on your space limitations. In particular the door mount and wherever the optional places you had thought about mounting the tweeter.
  25. Packing peanuts, just pour them in and measure how many fit. Considering you are running sealed that will be close enough. On that note, you better be damn sure that the baffle seals up really, really well. Any air leaks will kill you. For that reason alone I surely wouldn't buy one, but build my own.
