    It sure can. Typically it means your seat is mispositioned, mis-sized, or you aren't riding aggressive enough. On a mt bike you aren't supposed to sit, but use your seat as a balance point. see now on the forums I read....they say that you aren't suppose to be sitting a lot whenever you ride. I forgot the reasoning, something along the lines of it doesn't put so much strain on your frame and something else. But for the most part you should stand most of the time. Were as a bike shop said the exact opposite. They say, you should be sitting a lot unless you are doing aggressive climbs. So I don't know who to believe Do not read what I said as stand, you definitely cannot stand in the classic sense you need to use the seat as a balance point but not be sitting on it. Basically I am saying take the load off a bit and think of your seat differently. When you do you will adjust it into a different position that blends with your hind end better and keep your arse from being sore.
  2. Hi pass filter passes all frequencies higher than the crossover frequency with a certain slope Low pass filter passes all frequencies lower than the crossover frequency with a certain slope Band pass filters require 2 crossover frequencies and will pass all frequencies lower than the higher crossover frequency and higher than the lower crossover frequency with a certain slope at each end the crossover frequency will always be the 3dB down point the slope of the crossover rolloff is described as selecting 6db/12db/18db/24db and so on the processor typically. The x db means that an octave lower/higher than the crossover frequency will be down/up x db's. an octave is half or twice a frequency. As an example an octave below 1200hz would be 600hz. And the answer to your question. You can combine a high pass from a headunit with a low pass from an external crossover and end up with a bandpass. an example: High pass set at 100hz on headunit, Low pass on crossover set at 5000hz. Together these will make a bandpass from 100hz to 5000hz passing all music between those frequencies.

    i am sure this is a repost, but wasn't for me:

    what kind of tractor?

    I am bittered when no one hops in 3 hours.
  6. Some other time
  7. An eq is a completely different story. The only advantage of an offboard x-over in the case you describe would be to combine with the amps crossovers to bandpass like HT mentioned above and this would only be if your headunit didn't have crossovers at all. However, if you bought a stand alone crossover/processor like the H701, P9, DCX730 you would gain the capability of controlling your crossover points with a control head in the front of the car as well as a lot of eq, time alignment and other goodies. All of which can be extremely helpful and sometimes necessary in an active install.
  8. The on & off thing is getting to me. Since it happens when it is off, I assume there is no noise if you try with a completely external battery? Or if you are jumped to the battery direct?
  9. Glad I could be of help, I do wish you were still driving through though as I'd love to hear your setup!!

    Meh, the LS2 is a joke. Just drove an 02 Corvette Convert, 07 Trailblazer SS, 06 Trailblazer SS and another Jeep SRT8. The Jeep was by far the quickest and actually felt like it handled the best. My vehicle plans have changed and perhaps did again today. I left to drive them thinking I would sell the truck and the M5 and get a TBSS and some sort of muscle car. Now I don't know what to do again. The TBSS was a joke compared to the Jeep, albeit $12k less money which would easily pay for coilovers, sway bars, and perhaps a whipple as well. I was really hoping that I could buy something to tow the boat and snowmobiles but that is also fun to drive so that my second car could be fun. (by fun I mean perhaps not really streetable depending on who you ask, a huge bumpstick and something that doesn't idle to me can still be streetable ). Now I don't know what to do. Perhaps a Lincoln LT Truck with a supercharger and a muscle car. Problem is now, I have the itch. I have kept both the truck and M5 longer than I keep most cars. Ooo, also looked at a 2004 Ranger 522DVX today. Man does that boat have space for a bass boat. If it weren't $36k and my house not being sold I might have accidentally bought it. Maybe I will put my boat, snowmobile, truck, motorcycle, and car all up for sale and start from scratch when I move...aaargh!!!

    Try the dry ice and see how that doesn't work either. Was worth a shot.

  16. If I am lucky, I may (small but growing chance) be heading your way sometime between July 9 and the 23rd. I'd love to hear it if possible, I will know more on my schedule later. I might have to go up to MN next week! IF thats the case how far are you from the big town? Not sure how long i'll be there though I am 20 minutes from the airport, 15 minutes from downtown, and really, really close to Lake Minnetonka. I will be flying to NC on Monday and returning Wednesday. Depending on when you are here, let me know!

    I think I am going to go drive an LS2 powered Trailblazer.
