///M5

Why does no one hardly post in the hop anymore? All day I am gone and not much changes...

I will repeat. EZ Locks are a way better solution.

Weeks? How about an afternoon with a Makita buffer and a chitpile of 3M products. Turned my M from an orange sunbleached beast into a reflective red.

I'd be glad to give them a review, but would prefer if it happened after I move. Put me on the list last.

not the drz9255..i have the dxz955mc...but the drz9255 is clarion's version of a p9. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Kent, I never responded. If the 955 had bandpass filters in the x-over I would have PM'ed you. Regrettably in my kicks I need a high pass on the mids and my amps have none.

holy cow man that sucks. I would have been one pissed off person if that was me. Oh as far as the EQ question, I know it was a built in parametric EQ I was just saying if you ever wanted more like 31 bands what would be a good option. Not really much since you would have 4 independent outputs and therefore need 4 eq's if you wanted to eq everything.

All cabs where I live take credit, this one said he did when I got in. As for the plane, who knows. Hope I get home. He obviously just looked at the name and picture.

I think you should finish your install first.

Since you are talking a sub, to what range is your upper frequency extension?

Your links don't work, but either way I don't even really like their components.

I'd make a 6.5/7 fit. If you do 5.25 I'd do a diy set.

My night in summary: Fly to LAX since Org Cty plane tickets were ridiculous. My bag is the second one on the converyor "woot: Hop on the bus to the rental car place. Hand the lady my drivers license, she looks at me and asks for papers. What the eff are papers I think? She says that my license is expired. Hop in a cab. Drive all the way to Costa Mesa, the exit is closed and said cab takes a detour $120 cab fare later I arrive at my hotel which is a chithole and overpriced Cabby won't take my credit card so I have to walk to the liquor store to get cash. Not happy am I.

Sorry to hear about your luck Ryan.

If you want a "full range" 12, I'd go with one of these open baffle. http://www.madisound.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi...d=1812291.22904

tru that! also does anyone here have experience with a clarion drz9255? I've been reading a lot about it lately on diymobile and elitecaraudio and it seems to look nice on paper and reviews but who actually has used one? Having a 4-way built in crossover would be nice but what kind of EQ would be good for it? Just wanting to know what you guys think about it. *drools* If Kent had one, I would have bought it from him last week. Only downfall is its lack of mp3 capability. I don't understand the what kind of Eq question though as it has one built in.

Nope. Leaving town for the week in about 40 minutes too. The wife isn't coming with me though so she'll be home. Off to sunny CA when it is 75 and super sunny here. grrrr.

*goes to look

If it were West Virginia Tech it would be easier to understand, but I suppose WV & tech are sort of an oxymoron.

That will add to your crossover cost significantly. The TN28 is no gem either and you can really find a tweet that will blend nicely with the Mli so it is unecessary.

21 dead, 21 more wounded, yes Jim is there as are a few others, along with my Uncle and aunt are professors there. Just made a topic about it. Holy Fuck!

Regularly on Bm'ers the aftermarket intakes don't work as well as stock. My M5 is a classic example. The K&N filter is significantly worse than the stock paper (I have both). They normally aren't under sparked either. Funny you comment on the suspension as that is the one thing I would look to improve, but I love the feel of the ///M cars.

Start with cheap OEM parts for replacing whatever needs it: www.alloembmwparts.com On the performance side, I can't say that I do all that much modifying; however, the local Bimmer club has a bunch of guys who are that I am tied in with pretty well. What are you looking for?
