  1. Didn't hardly use any bondo. Not sure I understand, all the parts structurally are 100% fiberglass or mdf. I just skim coated bondo on top for smoothness. Even on the tweeter pods, I used 3 layers of glass....
  2. Getting close now! I just glassed up my tweeter pods, pics will come after I trim the glass off as it looks like a bunch of fiberglass now. Here are shots of the tweeter baffle and the insert that I made to hold a laser pointer for aiming the tweeters. Currently they are aimed at the opposing headrest like the originals. I will play with their position after I have a chance to break them in and listen to them a bit.
  3. Beware since the box dimensions are for two subs in a normal mount, if you mount them isobaric you only need 1/4th the volume as you would for the two subs mounted normally. You will lose 6dB or so Isobaric but the subs will handle a bit more power allowing you to make a little of it up. That is such a small box already, so I wouldn't bother with the ISO setup.

    You were up when I left for work... X2
  5. Anyone have any recommendations on software to turn a VHS video feed into a computer to rip a DVD? I need the software, hardware and it would be a bonus if it would work as a tv tuner as well. I have looked at Newegg and the like, but there are a lot of strange options and I thought someone might have done it already.

    Sweet, now you gotta teach him to open the fridge, grab you a beer, bring it to you and open it. Then he can go get his bag of treats and get one for himself--the real trick is just one.

    Looks like the dog has "walleye" vision, I think I will come Saturday morning though too.
  8. Assuming you corrected for the box volume so the inverted sub and normal mounting each had the "optimal" enclosure volume the differences would not be audible. The cone shape in this case couldn't really affect the wave. The angle is really the same inverted / \ = \ / and the motor structure is only nominally in the way and not at all when you consider the length of sub frequencies so it can't create that much extra destructive interference (less than 100Hz is more than 10') I am sure the difference is electronically measurable and "noticeable" in some realm (like an in an anechoic chamber) but really isn't auditory nor repeatably measureable with a measurement mic in a standard room environment.

    Oh, and I finally realized what a camera phone is for.

    That reminds me of what I helped my buddy do for prom. He had a rusty out skylark that was a bit tricked out but rusted to shi-io, but conveniently it was black so we duct taped over the rust and spray painted it. It looked super funny coming off for the next few weeks.

I mean wtf color is that fool gonna paint his car anyway, to match??????? black with neon green racing stripes?? hot pink with a neon green graphic??? I mean who drives a chartreuse car? Or even puts it on their car, except for two weeks in 1986

    Are you a roadie for a band?
  14. Are you close to Chicago? Depending on when you are on the list I might go that way if you are. The M does like to stretch its legs and winter is coming. I'd much rather do it before snow--in fact I have a set of tires I want to wear tf out.

    I was driving home in my pickup tonight (hauled stuff for the parents) and pulled up next to a Neon with HUGE pipes on it for four stoplights. Everyone he revved up, so I let him have it. Smoked the piss out of it at all four, but he kept trying. Not quite sure how he thought 4 car lengths to 80 was going to get less? Wish I would have had my camera. Huge dual pipes (even though you could see them connected to each other right under the bumper and he also had some shiny 5 spoke wheel covers over steelies. Running a radar detector and the stock stereo turned up to uber distortion levels. Super funny chit.

    This is really a must do, I would even say if that is someone's car that is on the site it still needs to be posted. I thought at first that the car had been photoshopped to look like that. That is seriously wrong.

    I'm working on a Fro as we speak. Way out of the norm for me. I usually grow it out a little for the winter, but I'm pretty much bald all spring and summer. I hate long hair too, but I want to see how stupid I'll look with an afro. Do it.
  24. X2 Love the Seas.
  25. Hey are the wires going anywhere near to MN? I would love to help someone with the AB tests if they are nearby.
