Ok guys, I didn't end up buying a new headset, my girlfriend keep telling me just wait till we had little more money. well on the 26th(my birthday) she told me she got me some and they were being shipped out soon, she got them from tigerdirect.com so i figured she spent to much one some so so headphones. well i just got them in the mail today on the 29th. so i'm happy how fast they shipped. i opened the box seen the words "Creative Labs" and "Fatal1ty" and was think ok she spent an arm and a leg being there from tiger. so i asked her how much she spent she said about $55 with shipping. ok so she didn't spend that much they must suck ass then or something. well i got them out played my normal game for little bit sound nice voice chat worked great, next test was some music since i love playing with and listening to music, first start was a few bass tracks, all i can say is wow the bass was nice and clean, very punchy when they needed to be and picked up the lowes very nicely. next was some slipknot again i was a little shocked how well they sounded. next up some techno music i listen to the most and the music i mostly mix/remix they we so balanced i don't think i will need my 5.1 house system to see how well songs are mixed anymore. all in all i think they were worth what she spent and i'm pretty damn proud of her for picking these out. thanks again for the help guys but well lol i didn't need to worry about it since all my bitching about my old ones gave my gf the idea to get me some new ones heres the link to the ones she got me if you guys want to see or know more about them New head set Jon

alright guys, i have broken down and told myself i need a new head set, speakers on this on are going crazy going out from side to side and have to play with the volume knob to get both sides to work. anyways just wanna hear what you guys think what are some good ones. looking for some nice comfy ones (prefer ones that go over the ears instead of sitting on the eats) has to have a mic on it, usb or 3.5 plug doesn't matter, sound good when playing games or music, and around 20-30 bucks i'll be looking thru some site as well so please feel free to drop some ideas by me Thanks

Electrical Problem
LordArcane replied to skinny16's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
go out and take a magnet to it odds are its going to stick sorry but magnet won't still to aluminum -
he was really good. i think its funny tho you can see hes trying not to laugh. atleast it looked like he was about to bust up a few times. hes got some skills tho
-
in some case's i understand why people do it like myself and in his case the wire is free at no cost just some time putting it in. if your spending money on the wire on the other hand like you said might as well save little more and do it with 1/0 from the start. just saying some of us do it cuz thats what we got at the time and its better then nothing
-
kranny did bring up a very good point to remember, what ever wire you use make sure it can handle the amps your alt puts out.
-
you can do it with stock alt but this is you really want biggest wire you can ideal 1/0, i myself only have 2 gauge with stock alt cuz thats biggest wire i could get at the time. but really anything bigger then the stock wire will help. bigger wire just gives better flow, kinda like your graden hose smaller hose more pressure you need to get the water thru bigger hose easier it is to get the same amount of water thru. hope that kind gives you an idea of what it does yea it made sence, but im kinda using wat i have because i love car audio but i have very little money to work with. i can understand, thats why i just got some 2gauge welding wire from work. its the wire u got is bigger then your stock wire then it will help. hell i'm sure even if its same size i'm going to guess it will help having to runs instead of 1 since you see everyone running multi runs of 1/0 thats something you would need to double check:) or someone might chime in and let us both know

Set up help
LordArcane replied to eric78702's topic in General Audio - Can't find a category for your question? Ask here.
honestly if you doing this dreamin or for real, first get the box calculator from here, google sketch up or something where you can draw the 3d box and figure out how big box is inside and out with displacement of everything from port to sub/s to get a good system it takes alot of planning of the box if the box if f'ed up then it don't matter what sub or how many you have it will sound like crap thats one thing i've learned but you did come to the right place there are many here who can help you and know ALOT about boxes and well everything you need to know about setting up a system you will find someone who knows and is willing to help you out -

could look at it like this also if you get the 270 you have room to up grade later nothing wrong with being able to add little more power later on down the road with out having to get new alt

URGENT help
LordArcane replied to StreetSlappah's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
if you having pumped the brakes yet its not in your lines so what you could do is suck all the fluid out with like a turkey baster or something like that and replace it with new. other then that i think you would have to drain whole system lines and all, i'd just sucks out whats there and replace it with new, that way even if there some still in there its not much. in all my years of working on cars and semi's i never ran into this so not 100% sure if it will be a big problems but. if was me i'd do like i said then just drive careful keeping close eye on how the brakes feel. -
New to 4x4
LordArcane replied to Bakerman's topic in Suspension and Brakes (4x4, street drops) - Lift it, Drop it..STOP it!
ok boiler posted as i was writing lol but hes right. forgot to add if its IFS there are also k frame drops, they lower your k frame so your able to get more list in the front of truck that hase IFS body lift, lifts the body off the frame. suspension lift, lifts the frame off the axles. all depens what you want to do, and how big you want to go. to much suspension lift can change the pinon angel and the angel of your inner c knuckles, that in time could cause damage. -
Sounds little weird...... ok lets watch the video see what this trunk monkey thing is about. ok i WANT one..... now just have to figure out where to buy one
-
The Prodigy...... one of the few that i first started listening to back in the day, they are still around and still putting out some good beats. ATB, Darude, Dj Tiesto, Plummet, Foggy, man the list goes on and on..... milk inc, so many more i could name anyways good luck on your techno,house,rave hunt

hair trick from what i seen takes some time to figure out since every car/suv/truck is different, big subs will help since they can move more air around, power helps as well, then you got to think about the box and placment of the box and how its ported and way the subs are facing, from what i seen its alot of testing unless you know what your doing. i'm sure everyone on here would love to do hair trick but fact is, its not as easy as just puting big subs and alot of power to them got to think about alot of other things that deal with box, and what car your putting this all in. i'm not expert here but this is how i look at it from all i seen so far

if she is listening to rock also i would say go with sealed for sure, i got my 2 10's ported in a 33hz tuned box and when i listen to rosk or metal it just doesn't hit or is that punchy if you know what i mean, rap on the other hand ya if she listens to mostly rap more then anything then go port just my 2 cents

if you have a compresser or someone you know with on... you can do it yourself easy, prolly less then what a shop could do if your looking for cheap paint job and with litte bit og time praticing could be even better then alot of shops. go to summitracing.com but a spray gun with a good tip and they for ALOT of summit paint and clear for pretty cheap and i've honestly seen ALOT of nice paint jobs done with it if you take your time
