I know guys never do anything wrong ... but what the hell did you do? my ex and her friend went to vegas for the weekend, while they were gone, i moved all of my stuff out, and i told her that it was over when she got back sunday night i now realized this is uber insensitive, but i thought it'd be the fastest, cleanest, most drama-free way to do it at the time My buddy did that to his girl once, but instead of him moving out he just moved all of her chit into the front lawn.

By on axis I would mean pointing at your ears, off axis would be how many degrees away from your ears. Are you building custom kicks just for the drivers you pick?

I love that picture.

Bummer Ryan.

Thanks for clarifying, I was trying to err on the conservative side.

How relaxed and how on/off axis will it be?

haven't even finished the truck yet. Of course, all I need is carpet. I hate pulling flush mount drivers once they are installed as I pull a retard move and scuff it always. Effin Rlp is heavy too.

I have modeled the enclosure and everything looks fine, but since modeling doesn

I just walked into my basement and saw my 1500gti and nearly posted myself. I do have to find a use for the beast.

As those of you who know me know, I like to do a bit of research before spending any money. In the case of building up my shop supplies, I have diligently compiled a list of tools that will stay the course and provide you with years of service. I thought it might prove beneficial to some of you. Note, I haven

As most of you know, I do measurements for a living. So I have a few pet peeves about how things are done in this industry. Nothing is standardized and the accuracy of everything is questionable and typically quite subjective. In this thread, I would like to address something I would like to see standardized and that is the sensitivity of loudspeakers. There are a lot of you car audio nuts that are afraid to run home audio drivers in your car due to the fact they are 8ohms, but you really shouldn

So you designed and built a box and think you know what it is tuned to, but there are a lot of reasons to verify that you are right. Some of these are: 1) To make sure you understand the math behind designing the box 2) To check up on the person that did the design for you 3) To check on your building skills 4) To verify where you are so that when you redesign to deal with an acoustic difficulty that you found you are able to. Whatever the reason, there is a simple way to do this. You will need the following equipment: 1) Your system installed in your vehicle. 2) A CD with a variety of low frequency tones on it, I

Beyotch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mmm 1500D

Slightly subjective, no?

Only wrong part was you assumed it was going to be larger (I know it was discussed) and that wasn't clear in your answer. There is also some leeway in the word substantially. It could be possible to make the box larger, increase the port area, and still have to add length to compensate or perhaps not. The truth in your statement is larger box with the same port area has a shorter port for the same frequency, but once you change more than one variable it depends on which one you change the most. I originally read your reply as no change to the box, just make the port area larger and the length shorter.

Ryan said it right. Prep is by FAR the most important. The most frustrating as well...along with sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding and more sanding.

And sorry Tom, one of them is not how to set up active crossovers. I'd really like to spend some time on that one as it will be critiqued by a ton of people and want it to be spot on. Currently I am not sure how many parts to split it into, so many things to consider and possibly alter. Recreating what I have gone through a few times isn't as easy as doing it all over, but I don't have time right now. I also think it will be stronger if I include measurement data but have my analyzer rented out to a customer for a couple months. (for $47k btw) going to go mudding on the snowmobile this weekend. Eff the hi-fax, I have a spare!

My work day will never end!! Trying to finish a couple write ups for the site too

It is a rather big undertaking for someone who hasn't done it before. Personally the only whole car I painted was my 59 beetle, but I took everything off of it and smoothed the whole car. It is pretty easy to paint then as it didn't require the taping of anything. Other than that I have just done repairs on driving boo boo's or rust spots which are a much easier undertaking. If you think sanding a box for paint is tough, wait until you try a whole car.

I've got a bit of bad news. One of my favorite auto makers is going to the Middle East it looks like. http://www.just-auto.com/article.aspx?ID=90691&lk=dm I was really liking them being owned by Ford too.

Zipzoom has screwed me in shipping a couple times. Promised in stock, paid for 2 day delivery and then it took a week to get out. The Egg has also done me well.

Newegg is the PE of computer parts, if you don't know them you should.
