  1. From my POV, when you pay someone to install a system the installer should mention what can and can not be done without asking. Like changing gains/amps/wiring/ ie. I was too lazy to do my own install, didn't have the time or tools needed but made sure it was done correctly. Tone controls and/or equalizers can be tweeter killers if not setup properly, did you test it before? Did you test for badly overdriven & clipped signals coming from the install? If you told him he needs to contact you before any changes, I would send them back for warranty repair. If you didn't mention to him about changing his setup, then you should just replace them. Tell him after this replacement he is on his own. Do you have any type of Disclaimer written on the invoice or given verbally? Telling and asking for replacements are two different things. I would be nice about it and inform the guy that you are a well-trained installer and you prevented things like this from occurring, hence setting the tweets at -2db. You do have to remember that most Mechanical or Electronic Breakdown/Failure occur with new products within a few days up unto 30 days after first use. It could be a bad pair of tweeters, I never had any blown tweets happen to me yet, but I don't clip or under/over power them either.
  2. Shit I wasn't going bald, my hair was 42" long. The ladies loved it, but my wife didn't like all the women feeling on my long hair. One day I decided to shave it all off. Now I sport the Mr. Clean look with a little fuzz for the French tickler feature! Most ladies still ask me if they can feel my bald head, I don't use a straight razor, I use a number #1 clipper cut. Having too much hair is over rated, trust me. If you don't have a nice head for the bald or clean cut look, I wouldn't do it. I do notice that when I had very long hair, I got treated good. When I shaved my head, people are afraid of me, and are always polite. I never got pulled over with long hair, but within the last 2 years I have been pulled over by the police 7 times! My wife calls it the mean muggin look!
  3. I like using Audacity, it is open source and free. Easy to use, also you can get third party plug-ins for it for free also. I used to use Cool Edit Pro before they started charging money for it. Cool Edit Pro version 2.0 was the last version I used until I made the switch to Audacity. If you want some post production studio stuff buy Adobe Audition. You can also get mixing programs too.
  4. Flush your DNS cache and renew your ip settings. You can try another browser, firefox sucks and I don't use it. Optimize your TCP/IP settings via allowing more connections at once and close the dns timing for errors. You can also try checking your DNS server: How to compare DNS server speed: ■1. Open a command prompt ■2. Enter prompt $t to get the current time ■3. Enter nslookup www.windows7themes.net 208.67.222.222 ■4. Write down how long it took for the nameserver lookup to complete ■5. Repeat 1-4 but this time replace the IP address 208.67.222.222 with the IP address of your ISP DNS server ■6. Compare the times and if your ISP DNS server is slower, consider using OpenDNS. You can find the IP address of your ISP DNS server via Google, search for [iSP name] DNS Server IP address Sounds to me that you might have some spyware, adware software running on your TCP/IP connections. Download a program called HijackThis and check to see what is running in the background!
  5. Crossfire is for AMD aka Radeon video cards. You can not do Nvidia cards via Crossfire, they use SLI. Your CPU and RAM will give you more bang for the buck verse videocard! Since you are going to spend $650 you can not get more bang for your buck based upon the previous posts. 2011 480$ Budget Gaming Rig http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afKIBJ3zC7M This will cover your needs.

  6. Visit this url and all the instructions are listed for your needs. http://prodesigntools.com/move-adobe-cs5-between-computers-or-windows-to-mac.html You should always save your keys in a database file so things like this do not happen. I know that CS5 isn\\\'t cheap, unless you get a student discount!
  7. I use http://keepvid.com/ for all videos. You can choose native flv aka flash or MP4 and if you don't want the video and just audio track aka the MP3 you can save it MP3 only. Hint for people who just want the rip the audio from the youtube vid! http://keepvid.com/
  8. Thanks for posting this! That kind of stuff is fascinating. I saw this a few months ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaTG9_1Qebg

  10. Why only post one video, when you can have it all? Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/user/UFOTVstudios
  11. I love knives, its up close and personal! In the right hands can cause more brutal mayhem then having a sidearm! Just remember: “Do not Bring a Gun to a Knifefight!” A skilled knife wielder can hit vital areas even with a small 1\" keychain knife (eyes, neck, abdomen, groin). Hard to shoot when you\'re tripping over your own entrails. A knife with a 3\" blade can split your abdomen wide open, it can it can be driven up under your ribs and into your lungs, driven into an eye socket to the brain, into your kidney or the base of your skull from behind or up under your chin and thru your spine... and there\'s always the classic slashed throat. Just remember, it is best to avoid all encounters if possible.
  12. You only see the light, can you touch it or hear it? Just because you think you see it doesn\'t mean it is really what you saw. Look into Project Bluebeam or take the The Pink Dot Experience. http://infiniteplaythemovie.com/infinite_mind_play.htm Now your avatar looks like some real UFO\'s that I could touch and hear :>
  13. Me too, ready to get rid of my RF P3\'s and get 4 SA 12 2ohm subs, so my box need are: My width is 41\", my depth is 30\", and height is 31\". I would like the tuning to be the lowest you can get for the space, I like 30 or 28 hz. I would like the subs facing back, don\'t like the subs facing up. Do I have enough room for 4 sa 12\'s? I want to keep my 2nd row seats. Any help would be great, and no I won\'t be building my own box since I don\'t have the tools or space. I just need a design so someone could build it for me. It will be going in an 2010 Escape XLT SUV. Thanks, no need for me to post a double topic since you already posted this one. The amp will be either a Rockford Fosgate T1500-1BDCP or Rockford Fosgate T2500-1BDCP. The SA 12\'s are going to cost $210 per sub with shipping included, if I could get a better price for SD let me know. I read that $175 was the lowest these subs sold for on SMD.
  14. Siccz azz track, I need that single! Them DAD subs look nastyz! I need to get a pair! Time to drop your new LP, got some skills if that was your Acapella voice intro!
  15. In CALI it does go on your record as a moving violation. If you do not come to a complete stop it will flash you. My last ticket I got was driving offroad on the interstate offramp. WTF drove all the way to Hollywood and back, not a speeding ticket but a ticket for driving over the freeway barrier! Damn. I did get a ticket for the failing to come to a complete stop at an intersection. It was a $280 ticket, but went to court and beat the ticket! The right light camera fine is $425 but if you contest it, 9/10 times the judge will dismiss the ticket on grounds of not having a eye witness. The camera can snap a photo, and yes they have censors, but like all computers it does make mistakes. All you have to prove is that your car had stop for at least 1 second without any motion forward and you will win. Just prove to the court that reasonable doubt is based on the facts. When a cop in California says: You didn\'t come to a complete stop because you didn\'t look both ways, or your bumper is on the white limit line say this: The law does not specifically state how long a vehicle must be stopped. What is the implied definition of a stop? I expect as long as your wheels stop moving, even for a fraction of a second, your vehicle is considered stopped! If you complete traffic school, this violation will be dismissed... as in it will not be reported to the DMV as a conviction and therefore it will not appear on your driving record. If you are found guilty, appeal it. If you lose again, take traffic school. Just remember the courts only finds the officer\'s opinion shall be considered fact, but as long as you question and raise reasonable doubt by can trying to argue to the court that your car was \"stopped\" for a millisecond, and that a millisecond should be good enough! I said one second, take photos and proved to the court that the officer location was blinded by street parking. The officer could not see the limit line nor was he in front or behind me! The officer pulled me over because he wanted to mess with me. I got pulled over 7 times within 2 years, 4 motorcyle cops stops and 3 CHP stops. Got 2 tickets, beat one and went to traffic school for the other. I got 5 warnings, the best advice I can give is don\'t admit guilt or make any excuse for why you got pulled over. The officer will write down notes about the stop on his copy so he will be ready for court. Just answer NO to all questions \"Do you know why I pulled you over?\" Say, \"I\'m sorry, but no\" Let him/her do all the talking. The silent treatment works best in court. Withing the first 30 seconds, the officer will decide if he/she wants to write you a ticket. You can only take traffic school once every 18 months in CA, but if you ask a judge to approve another traffic school before 18 months if you already went. In CA you can also have 2 trials and you can even have a summons by mail only. The officer doesn\'t get paid to write a report in a mail only summons, but does get paid to attend traffic courts. Most cops won\'t write or respond to a trial by mail summons. No response by officer, your case is dismissed. You do have to pay the fine upfront first, if the court finds in your favor, you get a refund check in the mail 30 days later!
  16. DO NOT DELETE THE WHOLE SHELL FOLDER! YOU WILL MESS UP YOUR SYSTEM SETTINGS. YOU SHOULD SEE SOMTHING LIKE THIS WITHIN THE FOLDER. (default) AppData Cache Cookies Desktop Favorites History Local AppData Local Settings My Pictures NetHood PrintHood Programs etc.... it should display the name type data field. Just right click you mouse on the right data field and click delete!
  17. Get yourself the ipad2, it is a present for you! Your ipad2 will still be slower than a new laptop but you don\'t have to carry a 5-7 pound brick with you. I went and got an Alienware 11x notebook instead of the ipad2 since I play video games and like some power in my tech, but based on what you are using it for I would get one. BTW my cell phone is has more power then the ipad2 just a smaller screen. Don\'t get white, it doesn\'t wear good. Black is better, and the ipad version 3 or 4 will be the one to get. I spent $1,100 on my Alienware 11x but you can get a base model for $700.
  18. Yes just delete the key, close the editor and restart the computer. It should work after that!

  21. Quit 15 years ago, the ladies complained about the smoking. I guess that was my way out. Besides, after my dad was told he has stage 4 lung cancer which spread to his brain about 2 months ago I will never smoke again!
  22. It is part of the admin control lockdown on Windows. If you are computer savy read this: http://forums.cnet.com/7723-6121_102-104829.html I will warn you that if you edit the registry and mess up, you will mess up your computer! If you got a new computer, just create a new user account and set it up as the Administrator. Since you have a Dell, you need to create a new user within the user account setup. Go to control panel, click on User Accounts and create a new user. Make sure to set it as Administrator access and download i-tunes again. This should fix it. My wife had the same issue with her Dell 410.
  23. Hands down, this is the best free converter on the net period! http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html You can download the DivX playback kit with a free 21 day trial of the DivX encoder included. It's easy to use, just drag and drop. Most videos are in flash, very few are used as DivX formats. Youtube vids you need to convert the .flv to divx format. It is easy to do.
