  1. Never heard of her before, but that first song's pretty tight. Just downloaded it
  2. To say one size speaker has more bass than another is... just wrong. However, 8's will probably have a slightly larger cone area than 6x9's. You say the 8's are gonna be for mids, then you say you want them for bass? You might as well just get subwoofers.
  3. I could be wrong, but I think it's as simple as putting a vertical board with holes for the woofers, and sealing it up.
  4. Well then according to this calculator, a 10 μF capacitor will give you a high pass of 3978 at -6db/octave. So that capacitor you linked should be just about right. And I don't think it really matters where you set the amp's crossover, but I would just set it to all pass.
  5. If you live in Johnstown, PA, it looks like there's someone with a DD-1 about an hour from you (if it's worth it to you.) http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/137758-smd-audio-tools-map/
  6. Correct. It's not accurate at all. Most people say not to pay any attention to it.
  7. i hate to be that asshole, but dont listen to this guy^^ distortion IS clipping. is the DD-1 an oscope? no. it will just tell you at what gain level distortion is being sent to your speakers. I hate to be THAT asshole, but everything he said was correct. Distortion does NOT necessarily imply clipping. Anyway, the DD-1 detects distortion. While an o-scope gives you a visual representation of the sine wave going through your speakers. The DD-1 is more accurate in the sense that it will detect more than just clipping, and it will set it to exactly 1% THD.
  8. Do you have a clamp meter? If so, see how much current is being drawn with the car on, and all accessories off.
  9. It might be easier to make the whole front piece (with the port) removable. Then you can have some pieces that come out more, and each piece can have its own appropriate port on it. Edit: Kinda hard to explain what I was talking about. Something like this: Then of course you just bolt it in and use some sort of gasketing tape.
  10. I also have the 154-piece set. It's a good set of tools, but I don't really like the case. The smaller wrenches fall out some times, because they're kinda just sandwiched in there. I'd personally get one those toolbox-drawer type sets. In fact, now that I see those, I think I'm gonna try to sell mine and get one of those.
  11. Haha, I'm in the exact same situation as you. And I was just about to make a thread about joining the air force too. Anyway, I talked to a recruiter about a year ago, and he said the doctor can just sign it off. And I personally wouldn't risk it, but I know a couple people that lied about it. They're not gonna look at your records, but again, I wouldn't risk it.
  12. That does sound like one cool mofo. Sure knows how to take care of his customers. Congrats on the new subs man.
  13. I don't know much about it... And xs doesn't put any info on their website for some reason. But from what I know it steps the voltage down to 12v. You basically put everything but your amps on it (up to 50 amperes)

  15. Dude change your pic back to toy story! that als toy barn shit had me rollin with your name Lol, that's funny you remember that. The avater didn't fit right after the forum upgrade, but I'm gonna change it back now. I think I liked it better too. EDIT: Fiiiiiiiiinally got it lol
  16. Skar VVX, Fi SSD, Obsidian perhaps. I really have no idea what you're saying, but three separate boxes does not sound like a good idea. And since you seem to be new at this, I would recomment NOT trying a 4th order. Start out with some ported boxes. Build your woodworking skills, find out what sounds good to you, etc.
  17. I would definitely aim closer to 1.25 for this setup. Did you put in the length of external port? Doesn't look like you did, but could be wrong. Something like 1.25 cuft. with a single 4" aero should be good.
  18. quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad Anyway, I don't think going and listening to different brands would do much for you at all. Every car and enclosure will sounds completely different. Are you set on a pair of tens though? Could probably get "better" with that budget.
  19. Those look pretty good, would eliminate the need for a couple ring terminals. I've been trying to find these other ones that I liked, but I can't seem to find them. I'll let you know if I do. As for a torch, I've had this one about 6 months now, and it's served me well. You could probably find a cheaper one though if you want, like: http://www.amazon.com/Trademark-75-TZ6915-Igniting-Refillable-Ceramic/dp/B003DX6JF6/ref=sr_1_21?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1337836097&sr=1-21 http://www.harborfreight.com/micro-torch-42099.html
