  1. Risky painting outside... Possibility of extra sanding!!! but it looks like you know what you're doing! Where are you at, just in case I want to have some doors done!
  2. Oh i got the ups tracking number in my email from you guys... but no delivery date that I can find... just where its been... tonight it said it was about five hours away and on the road about 6:45 at night, meaning it will probably get to my town tomorrow and then delivered thursday... oh well... Stupid UPS... but I hear that its worth the wait!!!
  3. Hey Ant, How long does the shipping usually take? I've been scouring the SS site and checking on the ups tracking info... all i can find is that UPS says that it should arrive on the scheduled date , but neither my emails, nor the ss site(that i can find anyway) even give me an approximation for arrival. I'm up in Washington St.
  4. I heard there were so many camaros down there that you couldn't sneeze without spraying a camaro!
  5. As far as the drivers go, I haven't hear of those particular brands, but that doesn't mean they aren't good, only that i live in an underdeveloped area of the country! (hmmm... ever think about ripping apart a couple of Yamaha NS-10s and tossing those in your car? ) As far as the tweet placement, as you know, highs are directional. Doing something like you're suggesting with time delay sounds cool, yet more expensive than need be. Aside from the idea of a time delay, you could always make sure that you have an adjustable tweeter pod that will let you angle the tweets up toward your head a bit more than having a 2 foot gap in between either speaker(which would also look goofy IMO) These are just some thoughts!
  6. A moment of silence for the fallen and their families............ R.I.P. And then shove the guilty parties heads next to Meades box port at full volume for an hour each as a precursor to punishment!
  7. I gave a panhandler my leftovers from a mongolian BBQ one time as i was leaving. I usually load up my meals with fire oil, and after being cooked, make it orange with the sriracha chili paste. I asked him if he liked spicy, and he said that anything would do at the time. Don't know how the evening turned out for him, but I know that for me, it was like razor blades coming out... for about 25 minutes!!!
  8. For me, I've just moved to this area within the last 5 months. I went into the shop initially for a job, and eneded up talking with the guys a bit. Kept going in, ended up buying a few things, and asked them about how they do sponsorships in their store. They had actually told me that someone else was supposed to be getting the sponsorship, but was only going to do it for the low end, and to keep up with their deal through memphis, they need to do enough equipment for a full system. They had already heard my mids and highs during install and said (initially) "if you're interested, we could get you going on the mids and highs whiloe we bump up this other guys lows, and just order it all together." I said that I would love to get that taken care of. A few weeks later, they called me and told me that the initial sponsored car owner was not responding back, and if I wanted to beef up my system, then it was mine. So now, (and I've read this on other posts) I will be paying for the equpiment still, just at cost, and the shop is getting a price drop on their cost to purchase it at, so I can get it way cheaper, and the shop can still make a profit on their sale... I will be (hopefully) working along side the shop on this install. I have never done anything this big before, and I'm trying to get involved in the 12v world more than ever. Thats my story. I understand that you're not trying to be a "dick", and honestly, all I can really tell you, is that this is what I know about the shop and what they're able to do with some of their product. When they get back from SEMA this next week, i'll have a bit more info on how things work, because they will be chatting with their rep on the matter, getting more info for themselves on the matter, and hopefully they aren't hammered off of all the cheap L.V. booze, going from booth to booth. All I'm trying to do right now is to come up with the ideas to do to the car, like the asked me to! If you would like to help come up with some sweet ideas for a scion xb, i would greatly appreciate it!
  9. As i stated before in the previous post, its a local shop sponsorship using memphis gear... Memphis apparently does this with the shop allowing one car per year to get the gear cheap to advertise in the area, but likes you to go crazy with the install, as opposed to getting a couple MC 8's and a sc 1.500. All i know is its through the shop, not direct memphis, but I am wanting to use this to work up through the sponsorship ranks, and if the shop want to do this, then by all means!
  10. well, I'm not sure what the prices are going to be... I just got a local shop sponsorship and they told me to start thinking about what I wanted to get going in my rig. It's going to be a memphis sponsorship(if you couldn't tell). I've already got a dingle m3 10d4 running at 2 ohms on an mclass 1100.1 because they were ordering me in a second d4 to match when they started talking about sponsorship, and was informed two days before they took off to SEMA that they were going to give it to me. I'm just trying to come up with ideas around my existing 10s that I already have(one in my car, one at the shop), get my sponsored pricing, and start building in january.
  11. That has yet to be upgraded, but will all be done at once. I already have 1/0 running through the rig... Gonna beef up the alt... Two kinetic 1400's... maybe i'll just go with 6 10's on this. I havent completely measured the whole area, but i definitely want to leave some room for a nice amp rack who knows where. But the spare tire/storage space area is going goodbye, and so is the back seat
  12. I have heard and understand that if you're going to be mis-matching sizes, its good to skip over a size, but does anyone have any experience with mis-matching box styles? I don't know if it could work or not, but i'm getting ready to toss 4 memphis M3 10's in my ride(sealed) and was considering the idea of tossing a MOJO 15 in a ported box with the 4 10's. I'll be running 2000 rms to the mojo and about 2200 rms to the 4 10's. Is this going to any phase cancellation or any other weird problems? Has anyone ever heard of a sealed/ported mix? Or tried it yourself? Or would it be better to seal up the 15 and port the 10s? I would like to go for SQl which is why I was thinking seal the 10's for the good tight hits and the port on the 15 for the boom. This is all going to be going into an '06 scion toaster, so there's plenty o' room. Let me know what ya think!
  13. I say avoid the orions... their older stuff was phenominal... picked up an hcca 12 a couple of years ago for my truck... the cone separated from the spider in a week! And i was pumping it the 1200 rms it was supposed to take! If you want something cheaper, but good sql and a bit of spl, look into memphis mojos or c3's.
