August 1, 200520 yr Author I'm surprised no-one noticed the mods to the drivers themselves...I edited the name of the thread so it "matched" the sealed extremis pod thread, dunno why, I'm tired, bored, and I've got a chit TON of caffeine pumping through my system, I DON'T HAFTA MAKE SENSE!

August 2, 200520 yr Author I HATE (refuse to use) spade terminals. those were off a blown quantum sub that was given to me.
August 2, 200520 yr You and me both.I hate those things with a passion.Allen terminals> all !<{POST_SNAPBACK}>fudge allen terminals, there's just no need. Spring terminals that easily accept up to 8awg are TEH WIN!!!NG
August 2, 200520 yr Author they're much faster too..On a side/gay note...Noah... you never return any of my calls....

Spring terminals that easily accept up to 8awg are TEH WIN!!!NGThe allen terminal will provide a far better connection in way or contact area on the wire. Think about it. The spring loaded deals only contact a small portion of the wire. It may or may not make a big deal, but in actuality, the cheap spades and the allen connection provide for more contact and a far superior connection.

I'm talking about ease of use. I like push pin on speakers (yeah, we were talking about speakers Supa_C look at the Jason's extremis's above I actually prefer STRONG/SOLID bare wire insert for amps, with regular Philips set screws that don't strip out (on the head). There is nothing worse than need to tighten/untighten a set screw...and not have any or the correct allen wrench. NG

I prefer that my chit doesn't strip the head... ever...Hey ryan, as noah kinda talked about above...Will the better connection of a set screw make a differance in this case, or is it just overkill?

By ear, you probably will never notice a difference. Hence my statement in my post. Measuring equipment will tell you otherwise. I'm a former electrician, so I myself am all about contact area and a FIRM connection.
August 4, 200520 yr Author I can feel the breeze atleast 2 feet away. Problem is that I get a little port noise at high volumes. gotta work with it a little more to see if I can get it to go away, if nothing else I'm hoping that the HP will take care of it... of not... I'm gonna have to try and firt a 2" port.
August 4, 200520 yr Author rediculous, but they don't get REAL low... they aren't set up to get REAL lowIt should be noted that I am powering them with the receiver from an audiovox shelf system... so, who know's what they'll sound like on a real amp

August 4, 200520 yr Author After some dicussion I've decided to try 2" long ports instead of 4" and see if that helps anything....God I hope so...that'll tune me to 58hzish
