Wow the msnbc reporter just said the cause of the fire could have been tear gas canisters
I just told my dad the cabin was on fire and, not knowing anything about this event, he said "I bet it was from tear gas" so I guess thats a common outcome.

I still dont see where all of this "highly skilled" stuff is coming from, i mean like yeah he has some type of training but is he really like navy seal army ranger level.
I dont see it other than him ambushing a few but all this hype i thought he would bring out the explosives, booby traps, grenades, he did say he was going to do a lot of things in that memoir.
You've been watching too many movies.

if he's in that cabin, he's dead.

you said silk then aluminum so I'm confused.
in my opinion, thats too many tweeters without mids. we may like different things but if you go to a show, mostly everyone will share my opinion. just keep that in mind.
dont get cheap ass PA super tweeters unless all you want to hear is a "TISS" over the bass.
-
just stick with the same type of dome on the tweeter and you'll be ok. metal tweeters are brighter and silk domes are smoother. different people like different stuff.

I have 1 pair of Crescendo FT1 tweeters ran off of a little $45 Lanzar amp.
I sat a good buddy of mine in my vehicle for 2.5hrs doing demos and after that, he was complaining about the highs being a little too excessive for Loud music...
So, i popped the back and measured power output to these tweeters. I didn't measure current, just voltage.
At max AC voltage, it was putting out 0.7v on a test tone!
that means that what we were hearing wasn't even 1 watt per tweeter yet.
I'd say if you know what you are doing(and i re-tweaked the line driver to an ungodly output), 1 pair of these tweeters is ridiculously plenty.
I have 1,700w of front stage, 200w for tweeters, 1,500w for midrange. It keeps up fine on 4 18s on 22kw.
that's not quite how it works lol. the amp could be producing 5amps, for example, and .7v. the 4ohm load is neither constant or solely used to dictate the output of the amp in amperage. its not as simple as V/R=I in this situation.

hey fool, if you watched any preview/demo/update/trailer, you would have seen that it is no secret that prophet is in the game.........................................................................
thanks for the spoiler dick head...With the Negatives out of the way, how sick does Crysis 3 look! THANK GOD PROPHET IS BACK!!!!
its not a spoiler...............................
thats why I dont watch trailers. they always have spoilers.
-
lots of tweeters and lots of bass and you think you need to care about "blending"??? you don't lol.
look at partsexpress.com or woofersetc.com. they have a lot of individual speakers for sale.
how are you wiring these up?
dont come near me with this setup lol. tweetered out cars are fucking annoying.

its not %100 of the time for me. maybe %30-40

ya, I was just about to post this too. does it on firefox at work and chrome at home.

if you are just replacing your stock battery then it wont make much of a difference, but yes you could. If you want have any chance of seeing a change then don't get "an average" battery from walmart or something. get an XS battery.
-
Finally did this. Starting voltage was 12.1v. After 24 hours on the charger, it was at 12.56v. Now, 2 days later its at 12.51v.
Toss it?
EDIT: Haven't taken it for a load test at Autozone, yet. I has no time LOL.
doesnt sound like trash to me. i would definitely test it before throwing away good money.

careful putting it on an ipod. don't want to be hammering a song at full tilt and then a 40hz tone comes on lol.

copper corrodes a lot faster than aluminum so it was the copper plating that gave you your problem. I've bought brand new OFC from JL and it was green when I took it out of the package. if you dont want wire to corrode, get tinned copper.
Hmm... That's really strange. I've never had any issues with my OFC corroding. Maybe the jacket was slightly acidic or sealed in moisture or something?
for the most part, our cars are a friendly environment. wire isnt subject to direct moisture so it souldnt be a real concern. perhaps what the other guy saw was the result of heat from a bad connection or over current.
have you had issues with CCA corroding?
One thing confuses me. He says aluminum gets hotter. I thought aluminum voice coils were made to take more power because they don't get as hot, or is it because they can withstand higher temps?
Never thought about that... Now I'm curious too
The only advantage I saw of aluminum over copper was weight
the resistance in the aluminum VC vs. the copper VC will be the same, it has to be. now while copper is a better conductor of heat, it takes more energy to cool it down (and heat up) than it takes to cool down aluminum. so the air cooling, that speakers use, is more effective on aluminum.

That temperature difference explains quite a lot on why there is a need for fuses to prevent fires...
And I've also noticed some CCA corroding and had to basically throw it out. Such a waste.
Never going with CCA again.

the fuses protect against overloading the wire. in a comparison like this, they put more current than the CCA is rated for but the OFC can handle it. it would be like saying 8awg is crap because it cant handle 200amps but 0awg can handle it, so everyone should only use 0awg.

ya ive seen a few of these comparisons. the trick is where price and needs meet. for instance, a run of 1/0 OFC is generally thought to be good for 300amps. if you have a draw of 400amps then one run of 1/0 OFC isnt enough. now you can get two runs of CCA for a lot cheaper than OFC and it will easily handle your 400amps.

I dont think there is enough bracing.

they should.

I dont think he gets on here anymore but... ya, I heard he wasnt a good guy to do business with from other locals. always sad to hear about a deal gone south. hope he does see this and does something.
-
dont worry about sealing them. it'll be fine.
-
yes, car speakers will work. hell i have home stereo speakers in my car and car audio speakers in my home. its just for fun, go for it.

itll look like this
bolt, ring terminal, washer, box, washer, nut, washer, ring terminal, washer, nut.
edit, use two nuts so you dont have to reach inside the box if you ever want to change wiring or something.
*FIXED* When i click on "my content"...its all gone.
