I pay him $280 flat rate, if you're looking let me know, unlike him i'd actually pay you on time too....at thsi point i do everything i can to get a new note waiting for me on the stairs :-D

no i won't be here past this spring(when i ...don't graduate, lol), and i need a place to live NOW, i'd move out now if i could find a place. I've been avoiding giving him rent just in case i find another place.

the problem is i cant get angry therefore shouldn't cuss. I'm a very quiet person, mostly cause i'm an arseho and don't need more trouble than i have. Perhaps a napoleon complex (i'm 5'6"). But the cousin is a total ass and has no respect for me, treats me like i don't live there. We have 3 full bathrooms, and one is mine, one is his and his wife's and one is for the kids, and every time they get sick, they use my bathroom and don't clean anything up, and i'm talking nasty sick. They also eat my food and when i told them to buy more they agreed to but told me i should keep my groc in my fridge upstairs (you know the tiny door style) or in the spare fridge in the garage (ok, thats reasonable, i'll sit in the back of the bus) and take my dry foods to my room. I pay rent, i should get my own frickin cabinet. Furthermore he makes 96k/year but still has to borrow money off me about once every two weeks ($20, for gas). They can't handle their bills, they're in debt over their heads, and they went so far as to ask me to get a Lowe's card and put a washer and dryer on it for them and they'd pay the bill. I personally think they are both on pills like crazy but thats just an opinion and i could be wrong (HAHAHA). he's got up at 9am on a day i needed to sleep in (late shift at work, inventory) so i could take him to the hospital cause he was sick, we were there till 3:30 cause he kept having more pain and they kept giving him more meds (insert tom green from freddy got fingered"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm"). And then the next morning he woke me up at 6am so i could move my car so his wife could park 5ft closer to the door. I've had to park where she would have had to parked about half a dozen times and never said chit. I just ignored him though and went back to sleep. The worst part is i have told them both where my spare is and they could have just gotten it, thats why i left it with them! She is a hypochondriac like crazy. I'll give ya a rundown of whats wrong her, these aren't separate incidences, this is alllll the time, about 2 days ago i was cooking and she came in the kitchen and ketp talking about her back burning...allow me to quote "shewwwwww my back hurts......its burning......i don't know whats wrong" i didn't even look at her, she wants everyone to pity her!!!! bone disease which leads to the osteoperosis or whatever jaw problems nerve problems in her face from jaw surgeries allergies like crazy (we can't have the windows open, she gets sick) her stomach hurts her back hurts her eyes hurt Headaches and i'm sure i've missed other things as well, and if you're around her for 5min she'll start whining and hope you'll feel bad for her on top of all this my cousin's sister (hey hey she's my cousin too) said that the wife even complained to her, why is this special? the cousin's sister has parkinson's, an honest to god problem and the wife needs pity even from her! i have gotten notes nearly every morning when i wake up. ...ranging from don't turn the outside lights off (always have a negative tone, and i don't touch the ouside lights), to don't start the dishwasher and even explaining that he has to leave. I was told that i shouldn't shower with my gf when she's there, the kids ask questions. I PAY RENT, if i want we'll have loud anal sex in there while screaming the good word and the kids, oh the kids. there's two, one only there on the weekends. I'd be hard pressed to choose which is more spoiled, i think they should just share 1st place. One is his, (the weekend warrior) and one is his wife's (both from another marriage) and his is awful, she pics on the other one constantly which is half her age. When i first moved in i was trying to make nice and play with them and she got the idea to throw a rock at me...apparently nobody ever got stern with her, cause i told her if she hit me with a rock i'd hit her back, i wasn't her father and i took a rock, threw it to demonstrate...she cried, i laughed (the girl is like 12, not young enough to justify the actions). Note she wasn't throwing the rock in a tantrum either, she just knew she could get by with it...well with her parents. The other girl gets whatever she wants when she wants it. The mom says no then the girl says yes and cries till they allllll feel sorry for her. and i have to hear it. every night at about 11 i get to hear the whining of her going to bed, she's like 6 or 7, she should be in bed by 9. Lets not forget that the little girl is actually not the wife's daughter, its her granddaughter. Apparently she couldn't raise the first one good enough to raise her own, so she's getting another try. And yes i think the kid is a bastard. The mom is preg again too...bastardx2. How about that wife...lets talk about how i come back one weekend from a visit home and her car's gone, which is strange cause she doesn't work (she's disabled, you probably guessed). He finds out she's not paying any of the bills that he's giving her money to pay, thats two new car payments, power bill cell phones, land line and i think the cable too. Hadn't paid for two months, you do the math, thats a lot of money to go missing. And yes they borrowed money off me during this time, strange strange strange. anyway, he confronts her and she leaves....suspiciouis anyone? He tells me about it and says he also found some of his medicine gone...hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.(lets also add that this is when i had to take him to the doctor...you all are smart, figure it out,....pity drugs?) He left her a letter apologizing for being angry with her and talking about how much he loved her missed her. It had been like 4 days....blah. I would be telling the ugly runt to get my money or ...well n/m hows that for a rant?

also i was looking at some 6.5 kickers and i like the way the grills are, i think i might try to reproduce it with some creativity using a metal rod and a blow torch:) maybe you all know what i'm talking about, its almost girly i think, three way metal star. I'm thinking do two of them per sub, one bending opposite the other, and then have them powdercoated with something close to black chrome, but since i've never done any metal work i'm sure it'll never happen

man what a day, here at the frickin math empo doing work cause i don't wanna go home and deal with my cousin (my roommate 50years old, hot mess) The lights keep dimming here and if they go out i'm screwed and will have to go waste time at B&N or something. I need another place to live, i'm so fed up with the cousin, called some people today, but they were foreign and couldn't understand them. I'm not racist or anything but if i live with someone i'd like to avoid that language barrier thing...unless they're female, then bring on the language barrier. ok i think that was a good enough rant...don't have to work till 4 or 5 tomorrow, don't really have anything to do so i get to sleep tonight. and the big one I got my rear door panels apart, i'm going to cover the cloth part with black vinyl, the back deck is going to be covered in black vinyl too. I'm hoping it'll look good. I will do the front doors this weekend as well.

yea what i wouldn't do for about 6 beers and 15 hours of sleep

in 2 hours i will have been up for 24 hours(7am). on top of that i have class tomorrow until about 7pm and then have to meet some people about a possible living situation

how'd you know i didn't shower today?

i want my old daytona back and stick 4 15s in the back, fire them straight up and give as much wattage as possible, everyone always said they were great for audio setups but i owned it when i was poor as balls (now i'm just poor). I still "own" it but it is sitting and rotting, what a shame

if you're shooting for the lotto its a good thing you're in socal, cause VA's mine. and my system has overpower bass but only when i turn it up, i think i'll have to let him get in and shake his brain a little. I just need some friggin midbass.

just got off the phone with my gf, she knows a little about car audio, not much, only what i've been able to teach her between her ADD spouts. At work today (hospital) she says one of the clerks or something was flirting with another registration chick and was bragging about his "system". My gf is as mean as me so she steps in and says oh..what do you have? he's amazed she asks and adores the attentino so answers "i've got the whole system done with the same brand, xpolds, they'll shake you" my gf replies with "really? my bf knows a little about audio stuff, he always said sony was basically crap" "i don't have sony, they're XPLODS" -LOL "Who do you think makes xplods??????? Have you ever heard of any companies like JL?" she knew better than to even begin to ask about the lesser known brands, but yet he replies with no, he only runs the TOP OF THE LINE "how many watts are you running to them?" "3000" "no you're not" at this point mocking him in front of the girl he was trying to impress from here it goes on to him arguing with her and her eventually saying yea i bet you do i told her to ask him next time how much amperage he's running, just want to see what crazy number he pulls out of his arse.

2:30am and i'm studying for a sexuality test. This crap sucks. I'm going to have to use my last 3 withdrawal credits on my film class because i'm going to fail, i rarely miss class and i am not passing, such crap. This semester is blowing and i've actually put forth more effort than usual. i think i'll pull an all-nighter, maybe i can offer oral services to the sexuality teacher(fem) in exchange for a good grade.

BEAUTIFUL, thats pretty much exactly what i was looking for (your drawing) i've heard how it works and sorta understood it but could never visualize it. And looking at adire's model i never actually saw the gaps, i guess i just overlooked them.

man that sucks about the cat, if it was my dog, i'd be hunting bastards down. As far as the gf chit, i wouldn't stand for it nor would i be calm about it. I would have been calm if she was 30min late, i'd be pissed as hell if it was 3 hours though

i used to have an old pop bottled wedged in the back of it to keep it from moving around....but that was tight (lol) i considered carpeting them but its not worth my time, i want a new setup maybe glass boxes this time around, maybe IB, who knows

i know and i've stuffed blankets on the sides to try to fix that, but i think the bottom of the trunk just isn't flat, i can't figure it out to save my life. it looks really crappy with all the loose cloth stuffed around it but man it sounds a lot better

actually what i was thinking was if i went IB, just seal the deck and keept he speakers the way they are now. I realize it'd be a lot more work, but i think it'd look better. I was thinking maybe weld angle iron onto the sides and put holes, have a piece of MDF cut to the right shape and have it attach at the sides the angle iron. Hopefully someone understands that.

there is little to know importance in how they look visually. Unless You are asking something else in this post, I do believe that You are headed in the wrong direction. The motor MAKES a driver. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i understand that, i'm just saying i like to see how something works before i try to understand it.

do you go to class too? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Every quarter is the same. I start off ambitious and say I'm gonna go to every class, and I do. About 4 weeks in, I stop going to the inconvenient ones (when I have an hour gap between classes, I wont go to the second one). Most of the classes are tested on reading anyways so I don't really need to go. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you mean you can read? man schools are way better on your side of the earth

Ok so speaking purely visually, i understand a basic motor and the LMT but XBL^2 i've never seen a good pic of, what exactly is it and how does it differ? what pics i have seen, i can't tell the difference from a normal motor. Now, someone explain in some more depth for me, or point me to a good link, the way the magnetic force helps hurts the voice coil movement. I'm not understanding why a lateral force is necessarily a good thing. Next, why is the cone concave instead of convex? Has anyone ever experimented with flipping the cone over? What affects would this have on the frequency? Obviously i'm procrastinating studying and my mind needs anything else to think about instead of my intro to film test tomorrow, a few more hours and then maybe i'll study :-P

do you go to class too?

Me too. 16 hours of studying...speaking of which, I need to get back to that. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 16 hours of studying? you have to be a freshman, the only thing i do for 16 hours is sleep

ah, who needs an alt anyway? thats like oil, you only need it for a while i'm really drawn to the XXX's because of all the hype, I think i might try to pick two up next year when the scholarship money comes in. Make them 12s and see if they're as good as everyone says.

yummy, so with my 900-1000W i'd probably kill the suspension, no fun there

lol i'm so new to car audio i wouldn't know cancellation if it smacked me in the face. And yea the rear deck looks like swiss cheese, if i was going to seal it i'd just sand the hell out of it and weld some old sheet metal over the spots, it'd probably be easier than anything Buttt that sounds like a lot of pain to get better SQ but what seems to be a huge loss in SPL. and do you mean i'd be giving less power because of the loss of the boxes and impedance rise?
