Poor Dude
Autruche replied to MarioB's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
That's just fucking sick and wrong. They should wrap barbed wire around a pole and shove it up her twat repeatedly, then light it on fire. -
Well, get to it, dammit! lol, I need some opinions on it.

Not sure how to word this - Flush Mounted MDF Rings?
Autruche replied to rickyfromthe407's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
Tee nuts, Hurricane nuts, whatever, if it works like that, it'll work for what you want it for. Tee nuts are much cheaper online than in a store, so if you can wait a few days for them, get a bulk pack online. It's like a buck for 4 tee nuts at my local Menards and like 2 bucks for 8 philips head bolts, so it comes out to like 4 bucks a sub with 8 mounting holes. You can get like 100 tee nuts and 100 screw head bolts online for like 10-15 bucks otherwise, and then you're talking like 1 dollar per sub with 8 mounting holes. At the end of the day, either way is cheaper than buying a recone cuz you had to slam on the brakes and your 60+ pound sub ripped those wood screws out of the baffle. -

Yeah, like BlitZ said. Use tee nuts. You might have to drill out the mounting holes on the subs though in order to fit the bolts through them though. Use 1/4-20 screw head bolts, and 1/4-20 tee nuts or M6 screw head bolts, and M6 tee nuts. You should be able to buy the tee nuts and bolts at your local hardware store (lowes, menards, home depot) for less than 5 bucks for enough to do one sub. Look through this slideshow and it shows you how to install them. http://caraudiomag.com/pictures/Use-T-Nut-Fasteners -
In the transition between the 36Hz note and the 32Hz note there was a little dip in the bass line that was annoying me, so I fixed it and re-uploaded it. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UOM7THD6 New link is also in the first post.

Looking for t55 torx plus bit.
Autruche replied to captainhook426's topic in TOOLS and TESTING Devices
It's not just a T-50? that seems odd. I picked up a whole torx socket set at my local hardware store for like $10. They are fairly cheap. If you want it now and don't care about the price, I'm sure the auto parts store would have the one's you're looking for. -
IMO, do less internal bracing, and more external bracing, like a 2x4 outer frame or something instead, if you can.

I'm confused... You said the loudest car of the day did a 155.9, but the website you linked us to says the loudest was a 155.1

clipped songs bad?
Autruche replied to elastic's topic in General Audio - Can't find a category for your question? Ask here.
Keep in mind that audacity will highlight a DC offset of just a few samples when you use the "check clipping" function. Even a really low note (mid 20s) can make Audacity freak out because it's such a gradual up and down motion. Your best bet to see clipping is to play the song in Windows Media Player with the scope visualization on. If there is visible clipping (horizontal flat spots) in the bass line that way, then you may have issues with that song. You could even more accurately see what your bass amp sees by first running a 100Hz 12dB/octave Low Pass Filter to the song and exporting it in audacity, then playing that file in Windows Media Player with the scope visualization on. -
calculating shipping costs
Autruche replied to homiewes's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Try boxing one up and taking it to the UPS store or Pack-N-Ship place in Menominee. Usually it's the same price to ship anywhere in the continental US, so it'd probably be your best bet to get an accurate quote. -
Try this: Take a piece of wood and trace the cut edge of the headliner onto it. Cut that shape out so that it's a notch. Mount it at the top of your wall so that you simply slide the back of the headliner into it before you put the moonroof trim and visors on. You can even get fancy and round the bottom part of the wood so it flows into your wall more smoothly.

Was a hot one today. Hopefully it'll be cooler tomorrow.

FIrefox wont work :( help
Autruche replied to 99GPGTX's topic in Computer Talk - News, technology, advice
Simple things usually work the best, try a system restore. Usually works for me when I have problems like that. -
All of the info in that thread explains a shitload if you read it all. When you invert a sub you are adding the amount of airspace of the subs displacement to the box, which will lower the tuning slightly. However, you may gain or lose loudness in doing so. If your box was a slight bit too small it could gain on the TL, if it was the right size it could lose a little on the TL. Almost every time, when metering, people find out they meter higher with the sub regular because there is a big ass basket and motor in the way of the forward sound waves when you invert the sub.

Make it so that the port is mounted to a removable plate. then you can have your big high tuned burp port in for competitions, then take the port out, then slide the lower tuned daily port and plate in.
