why do certain songs hit harder than others?
Torres replied to casemods's topic in Tunez - All things music related
what's the cheapest one I can get that isn't complete garbage? $50 is about what I would like to pay, maybe $60... good luck trying to find one for that price. and an O-Scope is the only true way to tune your system to know whether you are clipping or not. 12/14 on your phone volume doesn't matter, your head unit will clip after a certain volume level on it, even if your phone is only 12/14.. Just because you don't hear distortion, doesn't mean you're not clipping. thank you for saying this. i was going to say the same thing. volume or gain 'position' has nothing to do with output. just because a gain is turned 'half up' does not mean it's 'half as loud' or could be twice as loud if turned more or whatever. preout voltage determines gain position. higher pre out voltage from the head unit equals less gain, and less pre out voltage equals more gain. results are the same however regardless of position. if your phone is on 12 out of 14 on volume, and when it's any higher you can actually hear distortion, then chances are you're distorting at your 12/14 volume, you just can't hear it. only way to tell is with an o-scope. and 200 dollars is cheap for an o-scope, so good luck on getting one for 60 bucks that actually does decent readings. the base o-scope is good enough for audio (the $200 kind). they can get as pricey as several thousands of dollars. -
just a little bump is all

How big of a difference would this make??
Torres replied to Mr.basshead's topic in SPL - SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL
if you seal the trunk, then deadening the trunk would be pointless imo since everything would be sealed from it. also, 3 db is a lot to gain in doing modifications. i'd do it regardless tho -
Clear this For me?
Torres replied to Winn's topic in General Audio - Can't find a category for your question? Ask here.
also, i'd adjust it to whatever you primarily listen to. a while ago i used a cd to adjust my amps, yet listened to all my music from my ipod. my ipod had a different voltage than my cd player when played through the headphone jack, which would make my music play louder at lower volumes than a cd. which when turned up could have hurt my equipment since it was now seeing a higher voltage. so if you listen to only ipod music, tune it from your ipod. same with a cd player. and be cautious when playing from other sources. unless you know the output voltage is the same -
i can build one and ship it too you if all else fails. shouldn't be too bad for a pair of tens

ADD / ADHD
Torres replied to HotRodHam's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
imo it also depends on how interested in a certain topic you are. if i had to do a paper on politics, it'd take me months to finish lol. hate politics in every aspect. but if it was something i'm interested in, then i'd be much more focused -
i bought three tonight. in ky they're not gone yet. store i went to has em in full effect still. got four in the truck i plan on keeping. gonna add to it as my stock pile and buy an extra to drink btw drunk drunk drunk...all day long...drunk drunk drunk...while i sing this song they're going to redo the recipe i hear. i'm sad for that. i'm going to cherish the ones i do have until then. i have a backup drink i think i can do that'll be just fine. but i have yet to try it EDIT: i think they're gone in indiana too

Open links in new tabs
Torres replied to micah_jones's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
before the renovation this site used to do that. kinda tedious to do when you were used to normal clicking. i have a middle click so i've been in the habit of using that when clicking links to automatically open in a new window. easy work around -
Poetry
Torres replied to ryde2idie's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
here's a couple i had to write for english 101. i think i took it a year ago. this one is about running and facing your past For what seems like forever, He runs in despair From the beasts and shadows That are forever there. He runs fast as sound And quiet as night, Thinking that just maybe, Maybe, he might, Escape from the horror, Torment, and blight. Still not fast enough, He keeps on his mission To find himself peace With enduring ambition. But in order to do this, To achieve such a task We must learn not to run, but to face our own past. then a friend and i wrote this in high school for english. 9/11 happened that year or the year after The day was young, So beautiful and clear. The people lived on Not knowing what to fear. Some were just waking And others were working Inside the Trade Centers When terrorists came lurking. All of a sudden From out of the sky Two planes hit the towers And thousands will die. Some saw it coming To others a surprise. People all over the city Couldn't believe their eyes. Everyone ran Not wanting to die With only thinking Of saving their lives. Thousands of people Are now in despair From the family they lost Who are no longer there. Even to this day Many still cry From the thoughts and memories That keep Passing by -
new seller on ebay
Torres replied to chevscalade209's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
i use free shipping and adjust the price to compensate for it. i find it easier than trying to make a set shipping price. could be more and you're out of money, or it could be less and the buyer may wonder why he got charged $25 to ship when it only cost $10. so i estimate a price for shipping (flat rate boxes work great for this) and add it to the price i want for the item. make sure to specify if you offer returns or not. if not, state 'as is' somewhere in the auction so they cannot complain since it was bought as is. if you have a low feedback rating i suggest putting your ebay name in pics along with the item. buying an iphone from ebay was the hardest thing because of so many scammers with 0 feedback -
