Seriously. I feel you on that one. I tell myself that is part of being a "grown up" ...but that doesn't make me feel any better about it. Just like you are talking about OP, I've got all kinds of crap in my head I wanna' do, and stuff here and there, but I have to make myself not start those things because I haven't done other things that have been sitting on hold even longer. More speakers, system revamp, more lights, body work, paint job, on and on. I feel you tho- it is frustrating as Hell.

Bad Gas Mileage.
Colin - STAPUFT replied to Relyks's topic in Engine and Performance - Anything for that couple extra horses!
You said it is like someone is stealing your gas.... Does your vehicle have a vented fuel tank / system? Or call for a vented gas cap? If the gas cap isn't vented, then check to see if it is vented somewhere else. If you have a vent that is stopped up with grime, mud, bugs, etc... it could be pressurizing and pushing fuel out instead of venting off like it is supposed to. I've seen this madness happen. Nearly drove me crazy looking for it once. -
What does that say? "Smile When You Say Damn XXX" Yankee? That is funny. Thanks for sharing. Looking at this is like- no wait, it is amp porn. What a sick Amp. This thing has soul.

There is $$$ up in Lake Tahoe that we "normal" people don't even know about.

I've been a chevy guy forever and have at times even hated mustangs.... But this would be a done deal. A Shelby GT 500??? How could anyone really go for a Camaro over the Venerable GT 500?!?!? Seriously. Plus- the Mustang is pure Sex. Wicked exhaust note too. Capitalism at its best. Psh... Black with Black Stripes with Black interior?!? Done.

I have a 44 Special Magnesium Ultra Light that is very similar to what you have there. You aren't joking about being LIGHT. When it is empty you think it is some sort of trick because it is so light. I love that little gun. Gotta' love those 10/22's as well. Yours is sick! All Very nice acquisitions sir!

What about an Expandable 4th order

Check out DECWARE's "Death Box" http://www.decware.com/newsite/dbk10.htm This guy has had this design around for a pretty good while. Just tune your box by sliding the sealed portion further out to get the sound/output that you are after. . The deal is- you are planning it on a LARGE scale. -

My New Acquisition!!!
Colin - STAPUFT replied to Colin - STAPUFT's topic in Pro Audio / Home Audio / Home Theatre
This one has one reel. It is stuff my grandmother recorded... that makes it double cool to me. ;D Really fun to play old records over a tube driven console. It is fun stuff! -

I know this thread is ancient... but I got bored the other day and made a vid. So- it does play. ;D -
Like has been said- they are power hungry, but it takes power to make power. Just feed them with the big 3, big alt if you can do it, and the batts. I've had mine for a minute (brutus series) and have never had issue one.

ouch dam...
Colin - STAPUFT replied to rubbernutz1's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
I had just 2 of mine pulled Darrell- While I was awake too, just a local anasthetic. Afterward, I was all like: "I'm going to work" and my wife said: "Let's wait about 2 hours and see how you do when that local wears off..." So- 2 hours later I was in the 7th level of Hell! Until the Lortabs kicked in! hahaha. My head swelled up and I looked like Stewie from Family Guy. I have no remembrance of this part- but my wife said she caught me stumbling around the house and when she asked "What are you doing?" I shouted in a much crazy state- "I WANT SOME MACARONI AND CHEESE!!!" at the top of my voice. hahaha Stuff is no Joke Brother. Get feeling better soon. -
Freakin' nice. I'm coming in late on this one, but yep- putting the subs on the port face, facing it forward and sealing off the sides will be night and day from your original plan. Just be sure you bolt it down somehow! I dunno if Tahoes/Suburbans have them, but Astros had a hook up for the bench seat. I just used hooks to attach to the former seat hook-up. Get that part done too and you will be golden!

2 different schools of thought on the whole rear fill thing. Just depends- I also only have speakers in the front, but I have had matching sets at all corners before. Every time, I end up liking the front only better. If you want more volume, you can plug your back speakers off (like you were saying) and run a component set up front off of your front speaker output. I'm assuming you are using just the Head Unit? If so, why not run some extra tweeters or mids in the kicks up front off the power for the rear speakers. Then you can still fade them out (less or more added tweet/mid/whatever)? Just a thought...
