yea near 5 bar crackberry
and dont joke about the lead jockstrap, my roomate last year got diagnosed with testicular cancer and the first question the doctor asked him was "so, which pocket do you keep your cellphone in?....just out of curiosity"
it was that side of course, so he ran around telling all of us to put it in our ass pocket so atleast we wouldnt be losing nuts.

any particular reason you're set on building your own woofer? just looking for the experience of building it? because honestly if you look around you can kinda find a woofer with whatever looks, specs, and price you want, without all the hassel of having to build it yourself

i <3 the xl's
they definately drop, and my box is tuned to right about 30hz and they dont mind dropping down into the 20's, and theres no hairtrick like a 26hz hairtrick.
they definately streetbeat or groundpound or whatever you want to call it. and 4 15's ftmfw
-
hear it
generally low fs and a "dead" material for the cone are god determinants, but the box and tuning make a huge difference too
-
his box is magic
hes got like a dozen more db's and i spent more on batteries than he did on his whole system...
we must contact him and discover the secret of his box, maybe he sacrificed a virgin to the devil...
anyone know where i can find virgins? they've gotta be somewhere.

07sonata was running an aq2200 on his 12 with no smelling issues, it honestly seemed like it could take more (not some "saw a guy thing", i helped him install/wire/tune it)
these subs take a surprising amount of power, 2k to each daily wouldnt be surprising at all. every application is different but 2-2.5k apiece should be about what they can take daily.
-
no
you're going to run into all those fun issues of it going into protect, overheating quick, having to roll on for spl runs, etc
just dont do it, why does everyone have such a boner over 1ohm? on an amp like that you would really only get 300 watts maybe extra, effeceincy is like halved because its not designed for that.
look at all the older rockford power amps that did more at 2ohm than 1, not because they couldnt handle it, but because IT MAKES IT LESS EFFECIENT, which means more stress, more heat, and mroe likelyhood of blowing it the hell up
-
yea, the l7 definately seems to move mroe than it is rated for
and you can get a very tight clean sound out of an l7 in a proper box. hell i've seen solo-x18's in a very sq oriented setup where it performed pretty damn well
honestly it comes down to whether you want round or square, and i'd go round honestly, if for nothing other than the fact that the L7 is the new alpine type R and on its way to being the like most common subwoofer.
-
yes
the lvl 3's will def work, but its going to really be pushing them, and depending on how everything works out you run the risk of bottoming them out on a really low note, or stinking them up or frying them if you're trying to show off (or you like let your friend borrow your car or something....
-
max power is a few jiggawatts from what i remember, all dc's are somewhere around there
1000 rms apiece for each is really pushing it for daily, they can certainly take it for burps or a bass race run if you knwo what you're doing, but daily it would prob be too much and a lvl 4 would be a better bet
honestly, if you run a sub, especially something underrated a bit like the dc, at rms, you can play whatever music for as long as you want as loud as you want and never worry. its so nice to be able to blast everything from gucci mane to chopped and screwed stuff to metallica for 6 hours straight and not smell anything or bottem them out or blow anything up. yes some people run way more than rated, but why the hell would you want to always worry!?

i'm a skinny boy trapped in a big body
my 110lb girlfriend eats considerably more than i do (like double) and does a whole lot less than me (work 10-12 hrs a day, standing, jogging, and moving shit all the time while she pets her bunny and watches tv) and i still gain weight.
losing the weight isnt the problem, its the feeling that "holy shit there is no way I ate 5lbs of food just this weekend" thing, im pretty sure I metabolise air into fat somehow.
-
i'd have to say i'm way inconsistent. usually i'm to bed between 12 and 1. if its a weekend that shifts to 1 and sunrise where it just seems wrong to be awake.
but then again, chances are i'll crash out tonight like 10pm cuz i just feel like crap. i def used to have legit insomnia when i was younger, like staying up till 6 or 7 am for no good reason just watching tv or browsing youtube until i got bored and then playing videogames until i could fall asleep...or just not falling asleep and going to school without sleep and then crashing when i got home from like 4-12 and then being screwed up even worse.
-
i just wear the free shirts i get at work, i have like half a dozen company ones, 4 kicker ones, some rockford ones, some alpine ones, etc....
and at school i just rock fraternity shirts or white tees
im one of those people that cant see spending that much on a shirt....17$ for a clearance billabong shirt makes me cringe
-
thats what i figured, lol
everyone i asked was like "uh, you dont...."
-
off skin i usually wipe it off real fast, but other than that wd-40 and gojo and a shower gets rid of it
anyone know how to get it out of pants? i have a pair or two of shorts with mad spots on them
-
if you drink enough water/gatorade i guess you could drown your sperm, like that lady who died at the "hold your wee for a wii" competition who like drowned her brain after drinking gallons of water and died
and all i remember of surge is ALWAYS having to pee after drinking a can....its like worse than beet after you break the seal
-
i'm gonna hop in the boat of "i used the wrong glue and it peeled"
super 90 worked much better, getting the wrinkles out was a skill thing, and getting it around curves was just some elbow grease, heat, and a bondo spatula to help press and smooth
at work we use some beast like "sign a waiver and show ID to buy it" sprayglue that stinks up a city block and i've never seen it peel, i got it from a local upholstry shop but it was a real hassel and we have a dedicated glue airgun cuz it kinda desstroys it for painting
-
i know some paints are crazy expensive, but like some other guys have said here some of the basic stuff is only like 50$ a quart
the main cost is the labor....unless you're painting your car with printer ink cuz that shit costs more than pure platinum on the open market.
-
most of the people that piss me off are the ones that walk in and go "do you guys sell eff eye subs? like those btls" ....i usually just tell them that no store in the world sells em and good luck.
the only time i was ever a dick with my bass was at taco bell. it was like 2am and they were empty and honestly left me infront of the board for a full minute or two before taking my order...slowly and wrong...and then left me at tthe window for 5 minutes. At that point I just started seeing if i could pull a steve meade and get their little doors to open. I didnt, but it wasnt 20 seconds before i saw the guy running around the kitchen putting my stuff in bags and handing it to me.

storm was disappointing. My cuz is on his 3rd cuz he keeps breaking them. they're damn slow as well, which can make something simple like replying to a text infuriating. but as far as a touchscreen interface goes theirs is awesome with the click. the HTC is sweet but the screen isnt so forgiving to someone with big fingers.
i've never seen the samsung so idk about that.
if you dont mind losing the hype of a touchscreen phone and would like the added benefits of a traditional phone (like real buttons to press so you can use it 5x as fast with less errors, smaller screen=better battery life, more durable, lighter, smaller, etc) look at blackberry curves. You can go in and erase all the bullshit on there and its one of the fastest phones around. it does everything you could want, and does it well.

there was this whole controversy about how yellow #5 (the thing that helps make mountain dew green, it s a food dye) kills sperm...basically it lowers your sperm count by a measurable margin. its the matter of you busting a billion compared to 996million, but those odds arent for me.
i think its blue#5 that makes your poop green (which makes your pee green too but theres soo little in mountain dew you gotta drink gallons. blue gatorade on the other hand....2 bottles and you piss and shit green the next day.....aaahhh what you learn in middle school)
-
most of the expense is the labor unless its some really unique paint
for reference a 4-5000$ paintjob isnt uncommon for a nice paintjob, of which maybe 200$ is actual paint, lol.
be prepared to drop some stacks, idk what white diamond is, but irregardless dont be surprised to spend 3000-6000 on a real high quality paintjob done right, not some maaco "rough up the clear and spray a single coat of color down" paintjobe
What do you guys use to trim molds?

i used a diegrinder with a generic cutoff wheel, it lasted for friggin ever, cut through like butter, and made a clean cut, and you could use it to smooth it out, round edges, etc
otherwise really fine tooth holesaw, but thats a whole lot more work, diegrinders are like 30 bux at loewes and 3 bux or something for a wheel
