  1. Kranny, hey when I was a kid, I had an uncle in Minnesota, who had several snowmobiles. We rode the $#!+ out of them, and yea', they were a blast. The snow still sucked ;) LOL but come on, anything with a motor and steering, is going to be a kick in the ass, right ? :)

    Peace,

    I freaking HATE snow ! Snow is wet, cold, fucking bull shit !

    Here in my immediate area, we get like 1/2 an inch, every 10 to 20 years.... and that's 1/2 an inch more than I need. Now, I can actually drive up to the Sierra mountains (only a few hours away), any time during the Winter, and get into major footage of that BS...... But I could also shoot a nail gun through my foot, for fun like that. WTF ?

    Oh.... did I mention that snow sucks ? :)

    Have a nice day :)

    snow is fun when your buddy who lives down the street has 4 snowmobiles :D

    when it blizzards again i cant wait to go drive around the streets. last year, lots of people that were shoveling/blowing their driveway took pictures of us.

  3. ...or seen this done ?

    > Alright, so say a guy can afford more / bigger subs than he can fit in his ride, and he has plenty of power too... just not much space...

    What about running subs mounted face to face, with one wired out of phase ? I've read that this will basically give you the surface of one of the subs, but the motor strength of both.... and a guy can still say he's running 4 15"s, even though he only needs the airspace for 2 {or maybe even less.... wouldn't swear on that}

    Anyway, from what I have heard this can work very well..... and all of the speaker parameters {F's, Q's etc} can be easily re-figured out. I think a couple are doubled, and a couple are halved...

    Come on, re-teach my senile old arse ;) LOL

  4. Ya' know Sanitarium, I personally didn't think your reply was so negative. I pretty much of agree. I mean, if the OP has so much money, that it just doesn't even matter, that's all fine. But generally speaking, people usually do start out with smaller, cheaper equipment, and then by the time they get all of that stuff dialed in, they are totally ready to move up to the big, expensive stuff,

    Heck, if you can make smaller, cheaper stuff sound good, you KNOW that stepping up to SMD subs (or similar), and several Kwts is going to be redonculous ! :)

    Peace,

    100 square inches of port for 14 cubes?

    keep lurking, you have a SHIT TON more to learn before jumping into the deep end with that high end of equipment.

  5. Thanks guys :)

    Orion, maybe some day..... But I'd have to catch him again for that, as I sent that one swimming, after the catch.

    I'm actually pretty picky about the fish I eat. Personally, I think Stripers make better sport fish than they do food fish. Of course if I were hungry.... Wait a minute, "I'm freaking hungry as hell" !!! ....but that's on purpose. I'm on a cut cycle right now. Only about 6 more lbs to go, before I can get back to a very slow bulk.

    This skimpy arse 3300 cals a day SUCKS ! 4000 is better. Wish I needed 5000 ;)

    Peace,

    Fish

    You gonna eat him?

  6. Geez, I swear it's been so long since I went fishing (about 12 weeks), I was afraid I'd forget how :)

    But after an extended break, it sure felt good to stick a 12, a 13, and this 20.6 lb Striper today :) Had two more hooked up, which came off + several hits, all in only about 5 hours of actual Striper fishing.

    Then, this guy tried to land on my bald head. Must have looked like a landing pad, from half way across the bay ;) Of course it got the quick brush off, but it landed in my boat, then just walked around checking everything out, before it finally flew off about 2 hours later....

  7. Hmmmm....

    Okay, how about this >

    Take any, old beater car. Rip off the inside door panel. Use some sort of tape to cover all areas that will be deadened. This will make it WAAY easier to remove the deadener, after testing is finished for each brand. Blue painters tape would be great, but that $#!+ is expensive !

    Set up the term lab in the car (like maybe in the seat, right beside the sound deadened door) and get busy.

    Obviously you would need to play the same stuff (probably test tracks, and frequency sweeps), at the same volume, for each test.

    Now of course doing all this would be a TON of work for somebody like myself..... But if you already owned a shop, and a termlab, it doesn't sound too tough at all to me.

    Hmmmm,

  8. Actually, I do have audacity, but I'm not really great with it. If it can replace certain frequencies with lower ones, I sure don't know how..... or even how to boost stuff without clipping {when it's already close to maxed out}.

    I need like a tutorial for audacity....

    Thank you.

    Fish

    Download these if you haven't and have some fun with them, you'll be able to do almost everything you want and more.

  9. So, if any of you 1) like the song, and 2) know how to do a good / proper bass boost (meaning, you won't get carried away and drown out the actual tune... or push it to clipping)

    I'd really love to hear it, and would appreciate it greatly.

    BTW, besides just boosting the bass, I think there is a way to "replace" the frequency of which the bass hits hits, with a lower frequency ? 32-34hz would probably be great. Not sure what it's hitting as it is recorded ?

    Anybody ? Bless me with your skilz plz :)

  10. Very nice ! That setup appears to be slapping hard !

    Good job man :)

    -1 excessive 300amp alt

    -grounded the rear batcap to the front battery and resulting at 13.9v at full tilt

    -Pwk designs box

    -the whole truck is audio wrapped.

    Enjoy :)

  11. Well of course you know it's not the "original" original. That came out in 1973 and IMPO, it still sounds really good after 40 years. I'm sure the recording sucks.... but still: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgcYfKw0_TI

    But anyway, so far as I know, this is "Emalkay's original remix" of the 1973 song, and I just have to tell you this>

    After Steve and I got my system dialed in, on "most" well mixed tracks, I can boost my bass plenty enough with the bass control knob only, while the sub level is almost always at "0", but with this 1 particular song, I have to actually go down to -1, or even minus -3, with my bass knob at 12 to 2 o'clock.

    Of every song I have in my collection, this song is the very last one to need a bass boost.

    Peace,

    Fish

    Nice song! From what it sounds like on my weak computer setup, I'm sure it's great. Is that the original, or has it been boosted?

  12. Kinda' surprised, but I have to believe you.

    I bet it hits like a MF in your ranger then, huh ??? :)

    But yea', I wished they either carried that note longer, or used it more often in the song. Might be kind of cool to replace several other deep notes in the song, with this one ;) But I "wouldn't want the whole song bass boosted" per say. This recording has plenty enough bass to max out my system as it is.

    Peace,

    Fish

    My ranger peaks at 32 and plays down to 27

    Just played that track and the low note seems around 32-33

    Not under 30 thats for sure
