To each his own, i guess... Personally not a fan of the two tone, everything else looks good though. Seems like this build is more towards looks + performance than previous builds.
Not what i woulda put as my 7th post... http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/01nocomment8so.gif

that's nice what program is it? Were planning the box to fit wide where's as with the picture shown the woofer would be onthe right side of the box and the exit port would be where the port begins firing beside it.
the box is drawn up in sketchup..PLZ dont take the model literal,im still learning sketchup and 7/10 times now i have been off in the model by a couple tenths in cubes or a few hz on tune.
Not trying to thread jack, but...Where did you get that program?...I used to have it till my computer crashed about 2 weeks ago.http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...mp;#entry569214

http://www.google.com/products?hl=en&q...7&scoring=r

,the FI Is going to totally out perform the JL. I have owned a shit ton of JL equipment in the past and they were never anything for me to complain about but it todays day and age..JL audio is a little out of the realm of what other companies(FI,DC,AA,AQ to name a few)can produce if you want my 2 pennies.
I guess a few questions..
What amp you plan to use, and what its going in because your gonna need some room to do a 18 box.

I have it really bad, and have for years. I get 2hrs of sleep, them im up for 20-30hrs, then get 2 maybe 3 hrs and am back at it. Then other times, I will lay in bed for 10hrs but only sleep 30mins-1hr of that time, the rest is tossin and tuning, up to smoke or piss, back to tossin like a fish.In the past i was known to go for 6-10days without sleeping at all, then crashing for 15-20hrs straight, but i havent done that since about 02-03.
I am on day 17 of drinking little to no caffine, and have cut dark sodas out altogether..The first week or so was absolute hell, with cold sweats,tremors,headaches,muscle aches, like coming off Morphine when i was release from the hospital with my lung. I would actually say the morphine withdrawls where less painful/intense..I have notice now that im over the initial BS i can sleep for up to about 5 hrs now, before i wake up. Im still up for a dumb amount of hrs between sleeping, but at least im getting to a resonable amount each night.

If it has a big monster-notch or rear-halfed, it might just be an issue of them being a tad off when it was welded, just a shim or 2 under the bed can fix your gap if it looks bad in person,or if the body lines are a little off..

google maps, scroll a little to the right, i live next to Prairie Park. just to show how close
Damn thats alil too close for comfort...

Last night was the first time i saw the show, and i was hooked! To see that big ol bohemoth man and lil ol oscar dance was just like a Rocky movie..i think the announcer even said something about Rocky vs. thunder lips..lol
-
As i mentioned, everything in my OP was just an idea or what if situation, the final call would obviously be something the man himself would have to be on board with to even begin to think about this actually happening.
-
I totally agree with Andy, as far as startin smaller, then if it takes off, go more full blown. The planning for an event like i spoke of did take 75 people approx, 10months to get together.
-
good god sir....didnt know u were gonna get so detailed..but i like it!
i was thinking just something more casual....like a demo day...
everybody with a meter brings it...and we can meter like different orgs
but the way u speak...its like creating a entirely different organization....and i kinda like it!!!!! ;
Ya, i guess Bill Strong had the idea to make the Mr2 known to the community, and have fun doing it. The first yr he planned it entirely by himself, with a forum a lot smaller than what SMD now is BTW, and it grew from that. The mr2 forum is right at 43000 members now, and i heard that the last event(after i left the mr2 world) was close to 2900 cars, but wasnt there to say for sure. The last year i was involved, we had 1500 some odd people and almost 600 cars show.
-
WTH is a "geet"? LOL, J/k. If it was close enough I would see about it. I like the idea.
U type out all that shit, and not misspell a word or 2..lmao
Sounds like it would be pretty complicated depending on how many people actually went through with it. IMO it would take at least 30-40 dedicated members to pull it off, but if it goes down im definitely in.we had 75 on the planning team, everyone was responsible for a certain function of the event. it wasnt easy.

A lil’ background on the idea:
I belonged to the International mr2 owners club for yrs and was a diehard, as most of us are with Audio. That being said I bowered this idea from Bill Strong, the forum owner over at mr2oc.com.
What it is:
Street Motivated Designs National Meet & Greet
What it consists of:
A central location(in the US obviously) used as the host city for that yrs event.( Memphis in 10’, Tulsa in 11’ for examples)
A Hotel with large capacity that will allow use of the parking lot/banquet facilities, and allow Group-discounts for all involved.
Audio related seminars free to attend.
(Ex.) Say “X” sub company signs on, and agrees to hold a seminar on the basics of sub design. They would use their product to show how and why a sub is built the way it is, go into the manufacture processes, assembly, materials used, and why, etc. Anything audio related would be available to hold a seminar to better inform the users/consumers of said product/service.
Even basic How-to classes can be offered like how to read an O-scope, How-to correctly layer fiberglass, whatever. Of course, all Companies would be supplying the materials used for hands-on demo’s, paper information on said company/product/Process, as well as hand-outs and giveaway raffles. This is the key to keeping the costs down! The people/product/company has to be willing to do this and in turn receives the free advertising that comes with the internet exposure of a 10-14month planning, and personal relations that will be built upon at the event itself.
EVENTS:
Obviously we are a “on the meter” kind of event based community. That being said most events would be multiple variations of traditional SPL # recordings, following the most common recognized organizations. In addition, non-rule following “games” can be played. (Ex.) Who can knock a paper cup off a table edge the fastest from X feet away at 23hz, within a max 30-sec time frame.
Team events could also be an option if a local business, say Home Depot would donate the rental tools and materials to have a Sub-box Build-off one day, then the signed on companies of the stuff we use, put up the equipment, we throw it on a meter, and Blue team wins. Like a 1 day Monster Garage episode. Make the builds simple but challenging.
The week Before the SMD M&G all Convoys that had been organized on the forum will start the trip to the Big Day with meeting points pre-determined throughout the route to the main location.
A basic agenda might look like this:
Thurs.
Convoy groups will start arriving at Hotel, name tags, and rooms are issued and forum members start to get to put names with face/set-ups
Fri.
The remaining groups arrive and a Host (in this case Steve) Parking Lot BBQ-party
Fiber glassing seminar
Monster Garage style Build off
Awards for the days events, more chillin’ with friends
Sat.
Competition Day!
If it can be made a contest and the Term Lab is there, the day will be a success..lol
Maybe advertise locally beforehand and get a local-sound off/car show poppin’.
Seminars-galore.
Awards for the days events
Sun.
An early dinner Event, maybe a more dress affair than the weekend’s Jeans n’ Ts attire. In our community, this would be a great time for the companies everyone sees on the forums, or at the comps to give small presentations on the Goals/plans for said company, and for Steve himself to maybe have a chance to say a few things about how he feels about the strides he has made in the Car-Audio world or the friends that car audio has brought him, just general good stuff about the thing he and all of us love so much. I don’t know details, these are all just ideas.
Everyone leaves and waits for the next one!
I guess the point of this thread would be to hear from all of you that would be interested in seeing this happen, but more IMPORTANTLY, would like to be involved in making it happen.
This is just an idea, and I have not spoken to Steve about this, just a few Mods in chat on a couple different occasions. I was told to post up a thread and see where it leads, so
Whatcha Think Steve?
And everyone else too

Sealed or Ported?
