  1. I've finally decided on a sub for the new build, going with the Pioneer Stage 4 10"

      I have not seen that sub until you mentioned it, googled it, looks really nice man!

      A little pricey, I will source one since I only need one small sub it may as well be badass I figure. Wish I could afford the PRS components to go with it.

  2. I've got some Zapco gear in the mail! Lets just say its high tech...

  3. If I had any sort of connections within the government I'd have db-r raided. Whoever runs that place is a prick.

      Sensai had a bad deal with them a few times.

      He definitely acts like a douche because he can, he admits that much. Pretty much always willing to tell you that he is the best and if you go somewhere else it will be a hack-job because they aren't him.

      yeah thats the vibe i got too

  4. Ignore the false flags. They want our rights.

      Yup. Convenient, with the timing of the shit going down aint it?

      Too convenient for this guy

  5. Is there anything lame but necessary about going active that I need to be ready to deal with?

    1. Leo1103

      Leo1103

      how many speakers you going to be running active?

      Making it sound good is necessary. That means hours of tweaking and tuning, which gets lame.

      2 tweets 2 mids... hours of tweaking with anything really.

  6. It doesn't need to be expensive it just needs to be good. Usually those conditions aren't in agreement but once you learn what good is, of course, the rules don't apply.

  7. It is now day three with no shipping invoice and no service from the guy on feebay I ordered some stuff from, I asked that my order be cancelled because had it been sent on time with the free ground post it would be here the same day as the expensive airmail I've been trying to pay for. Fuck that.

  8. It's a real shame to watch Thinkpads become the sticker-laden trash that every other me-too manufacturer sells. I really don't know what I'm going to replace mine with, and it needs a replacement right now...

  9. It's all fun and games until you get out of bed in the morning -_-

  10. Just changed 28 outlets and 8 light switches in my parent's new place. Phew.

  11. Just ordered my front stage JBL MS-62C comps and Rainbow CAL 25 fabric dome tweeters!!!

  12. Learned me something today: old resistors sound better than new ones. After a long time, resistors finish their aging process meaning their parameters no longer change. This leads to a cleaner sound, surely something a lot of "old school" equipment benefits from since almost all electronics contain resistors. Some new high-end equipment is made with resistors "aged" in an oven creating the effect of hundreds of years of use!

  13. Looks like Comcast is starting to do some blocking on behalf of the music industry, now is the best time to be an IT guy who has his own VPN server...

      interesting, so things like pandora wont work? or?

      how much for this vpn?

    4. 8ight

      This is only by my own observation. They are blocking websites, it throws back phony page load errors that are obviously not the fault of the website you are attempting to access. I can get through to site "X" on mobile hotspot service (laptop connected to phone) and with my VPN on but not directly through my home connection (which is Comcast).

  14. Made some buss bars today, that was a cool little project !

      Pay for the supplies I can email you receipts. This batch sucked by my standards, when I get my D3400 I'm making fresh ones 1/2 X 1-1/2 stock, staggered terminal placement.

  15. Meet someone awesome, get blown off by them a few thousand times, no longer talk.

  16. Metal dome tweeters can burn for all I care

  17. Moved the entire contents of my parents house into a 24ft box truck by myself today. Nothing that anyone says to me will matter for at least the next 48 hours.

  18. My 4ch amp is in for internal gain matching. Why do people feel the need to goof with those internal pots? ugh

  19. My hand is partially numb today from being in cuffs so long yesterday, I need to go to the doctor

      Inquiring minds want to know what you did to get cuffed

      I didn't do anything. I was placed in cuffs for being with a group of people who were drunk and giving the cops a hard time when they came to tell us to quiet the party down.

  20. My old school Plextor PlexWriter just arrived, happy happy... Time to burn up some CDs!

    1. WastedTalent

      WastedTalent

      Why would you burn up CDs man? What'd they do to you? That's a little harsh, to set em on fire for just being CD's. Lol jk. What you burnin?

  21. My Zap is getting a paint job!

  22. Need a single SQ 10"/12" that can soak 780W of class A/B power mounting depth is a concern got about 7"

      7 5/8" mounting depth for the 10" is gonna be cutting it close, pretty sure it needs motor clearance for the pole vent too. I have always wanted an IDMAX, gotta find some way to make this work before I fold and buy an SD-2.

      IDQV3? I can always turn my amp down.

      Could you do a spacer ring ontop of the baffle to push the sub out a little..give you another 3/4 of an inche.

      If its close to something maybe run a grille over the sub to protect it.

      Just thinking out loud here lol

  23. Need an hour to pass...

  24. Need some SQ test tracks...
