    i'll paste my story from the 1st annual sw va meet... i've been pucking with the subs all evening, and they are acting seriously weird. they are atlas (one 2ohm coil, one 4) i have htem wired to 1.33 ohm (two 2ohms in series, paralleded with the two 4s) which was sucking after i ran a separate wire for the two 2s. I hook it up to just 4ohm each and they sound great (blown 2ohm coil?) so i hook them up not using the new wire as a 3ohm (2/4 in series then parallel with other 2/3) and they still sound great??? so the only variable left is the wire. I hook it back up to 1.33 ohm, running two runs of speaker wire from the amp(mono) and each strand goes to a 4ohm coil. I run a strand from neg on one 2ohm coil to pos on the other 2ohm coil. Then branch from the pos on one 4ohm coil to the pos on the unused 2ohm's positive. Use the negative from the other 4ohm doil to match up to the leftover negative 2ohm coil. Hopefully you all understand that. I don't think its "right" to do but it still gives the right configuration, its ugly, but guess what...1.33 ohms this way sounds good. So...still means that new wire i bought must have been crap. Also yesterday one of my 4ohm coils were reading 8ohm, today its fine?

    actually i can tell him to get something and take it to "name" and he'll do it, usually he'll complain about it first though

    i have the smartest, my damn dog is too smart, the scary part is he learns on his own, from friggin watching. I can't leave any kind of drink in a bottle around him anymore cause he'll take the lid off (not chew it off, once he opens it, the lid is still usually intact).

    finally...dog>cat here's my gf's dog http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/vladd...-25-05_2229.jpg my dog... http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/vladd...-22-05_2120.jpg my mom's dog (i love this pic) http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/vladd...-22-05_2121.jpg ok enough sharing pics with you ugly women

    its so horribly handy when i'm driving and see these crazy cars...the fact that i usually run off the road trying to snap the pic is beside the point whichhhh reminds me, some stupid c-word in a mustang almost hit me today, we were facing each other at a redlight, she was turning left, me right, we were turning onto main street (i was heading out of lowes) light goes green (and i even get a green arrow) and by the time i'd pulled out into my lane, she's coming over into mine (not taking first available, but wanting the far right lane) she's trying to push me out of the way, fat female doges need to learn what right of way is, she was turning left on a solid green...stupid runt

    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. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> no i took the picture myself with my camera phone...the location is easy to recognize too, and the pic does not show how friggin bright the wheels were either, they were neon
