  1. Thanks for the compliments everyone, this was a big project from the beginning and a huge learning experience too. I was the one that tracked down the Donkey Kong for Steve, after telling him I follow him on YouTube and was a member here for quite a while I told him about my biggest interest. I showed him a few pics that I had on my phone but they didn't really show the scale of the room so I decided to post here. It's a blast to see kids that have never seen a real arcade walk in and get excited but its better when people who grew up in this era see it, you can watch their memories flood back in front of your eyes. I opened the room up last night for Halloween and had several people walk through, the kids on the racing games and adults playing Star Wars and the other classics. The arcade it open to anyone local, that's why I built it, so people can get together and have fun.
  2. This was the game that started it all This was the arcade the day the carpet was installed and moments before the first games went into the room
  3. After finding one arcade game at a yard sale back in 2009 my collection grew out of control. From one stand up to 4 games, one a sit down driver, and then I had to move. I've moved twice, kept collecting and finally purchased a house in 2012. In 2013 I decided to refinish my garage in to a game room, some carpet and repaint, arrange the games so they are playable..... I ended up with this......
  4. Hey Steve, I'm the arcade guy! I have a few interests, car audio is one but the arcade bug bit me hard and I've invested a ton into it. I'll post up some pics of my garage turned arcade, the ones I showed you on my phone don't do the room any justice. Hit me up when you want to come play, you'll end up wanting some driving games too!
  5. I know what the amp is rated at, I also know Rockford is usually quite a bit under rated so I was hoping someone could tell me if these were a lot or just a little under rated. Thanks for the help guys, I know I came up on this deal. I was surprised to see it sitting in a Goodwill store in the first place.
  6. I was wandering through the local Goodwill when I came across a box with a 10" RF Punch and a Punch 100z2 mounted to the back. I got the whole thing for $25 and it works. The amp is missing the end caps but still, that setup for $25 I couldn't pass it up. Anyone have any experience with one of these, what will they really put out and how low can they be ran bridged? Just curious, I was thinking about using it in my work truck if its decent enough.
  7. Will this amp run at 2 ohm bridged? I need an amp for my work truck and want close to 6-700 RMS.
  8. I would buy it expecting to get something fake in the mail and call it a bonus if it was real. There are so many fakes out there right now on anything that cost more than $100, some are REALLY hard to tell the difference. I just found a thread on another site about fake MSD 6al boxes being sold on eBay, they look exactly like the real thing but only have a GM HEI module mounted inside the box.
  9. Tony C? If this does mean they've gone under, I'm a little disappointed. I've been wanting to see what their new line had in store. Though the Twitter account is still going, so IDK. They aren't going under, they just posted on Facebook that they removed themselves from "certain message boards". They compared it to McDonalds allowing Wendy's to advertise in their restaurant and getting mad when people choose Wendy's over them. I don't really get it unless they are pissed off that people don't just choose them hands down over all the other great brands that are also posted here
  10. I added them on Facebook a while back and saw yesterday they posted about removing themselves from "certain message boards" talking about it being counter productive or something. This message board is how I, and I'm sure many other people, ended up hearing about them in the first place. I don't know what's up but I decided to unlike their page. This was the best place for info and first hand experience on the products they were selling, without that I have no idea the actual quality is and spending that much money on subs isn't a drop in the bucket for me. I'll just plan on buying a different brand in the future when I upgrade my Memphis subs.
  11. I didn't see it listed but whats the story on that old Memphis I see sitting in the background?
  12. Is this you? http://www.recklesstortuga.com/video/online-gamer-s1-ep-3
  13. I looked into the GTab and several others but after playing with the Samsung Tab I got it. The screen is awesome on the Samsung, the color looked all washed out on the others to me. The only thing I'm not impressed with is the ram, it needs more. I run task killer and set it to kill all apps when the screen is shut off, otherwise it will slow way down. I just picked up a Google G2X phone and love it so I'm going to check out the new LG tablet here soon, might upgrade if its as nice as my phone is.
