  1. Either I don't watch enough TV, or Nicholas Cages movies have gotten so bad that there aren't any previews for them and they go straight to netflix without theater presentation.

  2. What's a good way to start your day? Not pulling into work with a flat, that's for sure.

      I just spent $480 on two new tires and an alignment. It could be worse you know.

      It could be. I almost told the guy to put me down for four new ones and he quoted me $550 and I cringed because that would mean less audio money. So I'll just stick with $150 for one, the other three are still in good shape, plenty of tread

  3. Dremel problems... Not enough battery life. My only cutting disc broke and I already went to Home Depot once today.

      yea really I have as much luck with a drill and the dremel bits then I did with a dremel

      I'll have to look into the sonicrafter. Thanks Aculous, I'm making it work with 10-15 minute charge times and the sanding wheel attachment. It's messy, but it's getting the job done.

      Shit I didn't even think about throwing it on my drill. That ain't a half bad idea. I'll grab some more cutting wheels tomorrow on my way home from work though. Not sure if I'll finish up cutting the excess fiberglass off tonight. The wife is home and I was on duty yesterday so I gotta spend some time with her before I catch some sleep

  4. Dremel battery died on me as soon as I started cutting the fiberglass down :,(

      i have one of the cordless dremels wish i had a corded one. they seem to die way to fast and bog down to easy

      Yeah. I love having the cordless because I can take it anywhere and use it, but that battery sucks for the most part. One day I'll have a little work shop with all corded tools, and then I'll have all my cordless twins when I need them too. Haha dreams right?

  5. Today's the day, TDH in Petersburg, VA. First show ever for me, gonna be a blast.

  6. Maybe I can convince the wife to let me hook the LC7i up in her 4Runner for a small system as my AudioControl test dummy.... One day..

  7. Update on the Tahoe build: had a little sunlight when I got home so I started pulling all my wires out of the explorer. All that's left is the battery, HU, amps, and subs. Sunday will be crunch time once I'm home off duty.

      Save it for the build log, lol

  8. Another great transaction with SHCA. It's been almost two months, the things I wanted weren't in stock, and after being kept updated on it all, it's finally falling into place. Always great CS.

  9. The good good feeling of eliminating a very bothersome rattle

      You'll get a new one now..Usually how that works

  10. Tony C. has me scared with his turn-on relay kit. Two amps (mono & 4-chan) on a single HU remote out (300mA) should be fine right? Using 12ga cca on a 10ft max run? The Tony's make me overthink shit.

      I never priced everything separately. But to me once you consider time spent making all the connections, double checking that everything is done correctly, hunting down/driving/ordering different stuff online vs. the fact that Tony gives us a 10% discount and you can spend your time on other parts of your build, and just plug and play when it shows up, it's a great deal.

      Yeah and considering I'm not too familiar with how to even go about wiring it up, I don't really have the time to try to figure it out now.

  11. Bought some supplies to try glassing some tweeter pods for my door panels, see how it goes this weekend hopefully

      don't forget the pics bro! best wishes!

    2. reedal

      reedal

      Haha thanks. I'll take pics while I do it, but it may end up being a "don't do it like this" lesson, cause I've never glassed anything before.

  12. Someone with money to blow away, buy a big box truck and wall it. And drive to norfolk so I can get a demo.

    1. Keith77

      Keith77

      There is already a Demo Bus

  13. let my family use my truck while i was in san diego for a month and half. Come back, i have a broken RCA, broken foot on my amp that helps secure it in place, fifty million napkins stuffed in between the seats, and trash hidden behind the back seats. Never again.

  14. Today is going to be a great day. Graduate my first C school in about two hours, then I get to get on a plane, fly five hours to Georgia (hopefully sleeping on the way), two hours to Virginia (squeeze another catnap in), picked up by my fiancé, and head home for a few hours before I have to report to my ship tomorrow morning. I love this San Diego weather, but there's no place better than home.

      Thanks man, it's all good. I'm sure I'll find someone on the east coast to throw me a couple demos. Maybe get to a couple comps in or around virginia

  15. Bit the bullet and bought the 80prs.
