  1. has not set their status

  2. I know its a pre fab but I got my polk box with 2 12" polk db subs for $149 new from frys on sale. They seem to be as good/loud as most other entry level subs.
  3. I've got the polk db 5x7s in the front and rear and a pair of polk db 12's. For the price they seem to be as good as anything else in the price range.
  4. Sorry to also post here but I've found someone local selling an RE SE basket/magnet with the FI BL soft parts was hoping for some advice on if this seems like a worthwhile combo? Seller is asking $150 for it. Also would this be an upgrade from my 2 polk db 12s in a prefab box assuming a proper box is built for the RE/FI hybrid? Thanks for any words of wisdom or advice!
  5. bass boost will just bump the voltage and most likely cause the subs to clip thus doing damage/frying them lots of good guides here on setting gains. all it takes is making a test tone cd, a pre done spreadsheet and dmm.
  6. Now I'm gonna have to dig out my old NES this weekend. Got it new back when I was 8-10. I still have the gun and the kids get a kick out of duck hunt
  7. Mad props for the unique build. I hope you like how it sounds so all that effort pays off in the end. I agree the plexi window would be hilarious or perhaps put a photo of a normal open glove box on the so its like an old school wylie coyote cartoon
  8. I tried some of it in my trunk. for the price it seems ok. I got a roll for 17-18 bucks
  9. I'd 2nd the waiting. my entry level setup I got cheap except I'm already wanting to see how big of an amp I can go on my stock electrical and get some better subs that can handle more. If your patient you can find some deals. I know they are entry level but I got my prefab polk box with 2 Polk DB 12s for $149 new from Frys electronics sale and my Punch 600.1BD I got used off craigslist for $80. If he's wanting something cheap for now I'd look for someone who is upgrading and trying to unload a decent amp/sub combo
  10. what state? nothing ive ever heard of. In TX if your vehicle is over 25 yrs old its a safety only inspection but no cap on repair bills
  11. Check the for sale section here or the local craigslist I picked up my prefab polk db1222 box for $149 on sale at a local fry's electronics. They aren't bad for now but I'll likely upgrade at some point. My amp I got used off craigslist for eighty. I already had all the wiring so it was easy to test the amp worked. I even picked up all four of my 5x7s off craigslist for $90. I know my current setup isnt anywhere in the league of the typical SMD member but for a starter set up on a budget its loud enough to annoy the neighbors and the wife fusses she can hear it in the house from the driveway
  12. Agreed. A managed gig switch is very pricey. What's wrong with a little 5 port linksys gig switch? I have one of those I use for my wired connections back to my server.
  13. I hate to say it but do some research on the software, buy a book, snag some templates and just play. That is the best way to learn html. I'm not a heavy web dev but have taught myself html over the years and today was working on how to drop cookies on hosts. You will learn and retain more if you do it on your own or at least put some effort into it then ask specific questions when ya get stumped.
  14. Looks like those guys go some great work and the hoe looks right at home in the new shop!
  15. Sounds like ya need to get you some internet and a wireless router so you can reply to posts from the new shop
  16. talk nice to the IT guys at work. They have a box of em at my work and I just ask them when I need one and they usually hook me up as long as I don't abuse it
  17. This looks to be the ultimate man cave. I can't wait to see some hair tricks with those banners hanging from the ceiling So many possibilities. Will be a fun journey to watch and see what a guy like you can make of the place! I hope you don't shake the place down the first night you get the hoe in there!!
  18. Wow the color came out great and looks to match the photoshop really well. The color effect reminds me of the old mystique cobra mustangs.
  19. Make use of all the knowledgeable folks here on this site. Provide the info that has been asked and I have no doubt you'll get some great advice. What you do with the info is up to you.
  20. I'll agree with Avira or AVG. Microsofts new security essentials is also not bad for free. Having worked at McAfee I can't recommend their products too much
  21. Good to see your doing good things to keep the site up and running strong. Dedicated servers aint cheap. Any chance of sharing the specs for the techie folks of the new server?
  22. Noob to these forums. Found Steve's videos on YouTube. Been tinkering with car audio since I was 15 and in my mid 30s now. IT guy by trade and enjoying getting more involved with car audio again. Seems like a great forums with lots of info.
