Did my best to set my EQ and XOver's today. Started out on AC/DC. made that sound good. Then moved over to Michael Jackson. This is It. Orchestra version. That song is beautiful on a great system. And it sounds pretty damned good in my truck if i do say so myself. lol.

make fun all you want. But I love the music Michael Jackson produced. No matter what he was as a person.

Then I added my sub tonight. Set my gain. Played around goin through my entire ipod on my HU to see what sounded good. Everything did at Full Tilt. lmfao. after like 45 minutes of playin around. I set it on Bass Mekanik LowD SlowD and let it go through a few songs for about 15~25 minutes.

Now i'm here. lol. I'll still be tuning for a while on the EQ. But the Sub is done. :woot: :woot: :woot:

P.S. My Logo was flying around. So i pealed it off. lol. No more Logo.

Edited by Brett_the_Vandal

I'm not sure why these companies continue to put cheap stickers on their dustcaps when they just keep coming off. You would think they'd want the logo to stay on for advertising purposes.

Yeah I jam some Michael Jackson on my system too, it sounds so good with the Epic-160 :morepower1:

So i was tinkering in my garage. Preppin my Dirt Scooter's engine for when my crank shaft gets ready.

And i decided I'd paint one of my black FI Vinyls.

This is how it turned out. What you guys think?

DSCN0508.jpg

Had Hemi Orange sittin around for my Charger's engine block. So i went ahead and threw it down. Took nearly 4 coats to cover the black with this color. But i think it turned out alright.

I love that orange color, came out great. :)

Why stop at the colors that FI offers??

there's plenty of paints out there. Took some work. But. Well worth it.

thanks! :D
