  1. sentence structure is different than capitalization imo. just like he said, that one comma made the sentence all different. however, if i start a sentence with a capital letter it'll still mean the same if i started it with a lowercase letter.

    people type and type and type and dont use periods or commas or anything to cut up the paragraph into readable sintenses and it all run togeter you dont know where to stop or go or what some words even mean in the context their trying to say and yu waste half yur time reading it for or five times not knowing wtf they is sayin ur lucky if they will at leest spell words right

    ...that is also quite the pet peeve of mine. so many times must i just close a window so i don't become the grammar police lol.

    spell check>you. just sayin.........(sintence)

  2. I just don't understand... their job is to lift random shaped and weighted objects. How fucking hard is it to pick up a heavy rectangle. Did they not think they would have to lift heavy things?

    same way that a moron cant look at a menu screen and make my meal the way i requested it! always plan for the unknown, dont leave the responsibility up to someone else. when doing ANYTHING in life, before you sign off on it....ask yourself....what can i do to improve!!

  3. holy hell man why'd you sign for it??? now they probably won't do a thing cuz you were at the residence. but was that all that was in the box for packaging? I would have built a small crate around it to make damn certain it couldnt be touched.

    anytime i ever ship a sub i comepletely pack it in foam, 1 inch thick all 6 sides. and shape it around the motor and cone. that way it CANT shift. that foam shit i saw in those pics look haphazard at best. just my .02

  4. why i like DC.....

    i had been running RF since the Series 1 days. amps and subs back in 92. when I get to world finals level with my ALL fosgate car, that I paid for all the equipment, I blew a T2 two weeks before the show. I rushed the sub back to RF and wait patiently for the new one. (I had been in contact with them letting them know the seriousness) With 2 days left, I call agin and they hadnt even processed it yet, but they were looking at it on the shelf. I get hooked up with Rusty,, He builds me 2 subs that were equal to the power of the T2. and I have them the next day still wet. I put them in the car and the sound quality of his speakers were better IMO than the T2 and also a little louder. FOR HALF THE $$$. also at that first wf on the west coast, he brought enough spares for each compettiter if they blew one during the meet. Rusty always has time to talk to all customers, or people just looking, and feels more like a friend or close relative than a business owner. emails get answered timely. and product so far has held a good reputation for performing as advertised or superior. Because of this type of reputation I will stay with DC till any of those pros become cons. I will also be trying his amps out this year. To see if they can really deliver for me. __---Yes there may be cheaper out there or more powerful, maybe even more reliable? but what manufacturer has all 3. including the customer service? Thank you Rusty for the last 4 1/2 years.

  5. those are the powerbass amps i had in the sleeper. nice clean undistorted and loud

    They would match my XA3000ds.

    I'll see if i can't get them from yousometime after SBN.

    they are the asa 400.4 and the asa 600.4, if you buy all 3 ill pay for the shipping!

  6. im headed out to arkansas driving the I40 the whole way from california. im looking to maybe bring a rifle back with me. I like long distance bolt action style shooting. something accurate at least 300yrds. 500 would be great. i want a good scope etc, 30-30, 308, maybe even the right 223, and definately not something that has been introduced to DOJ. so if someone has something affordable laying around and you are on my way???? send me an email with the price description and picture.

  7. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817709011

    each one of these can do a stable 300 watts of current, and for the price, buying 4-10 of them isnt that bad.

    or this

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817709019

    can do 250 watts stable, for $5 less. $0.10 per watt isnt bad at all.

    and lastly

    those computer supplies only give 25 amps at 12v. that is not much at all. and is that 25 amps under a load or free-floating? just like everything elso...you get what you pay for.

  8. Are you going to be able to get terminals for 3/0 wire? That would be a major reason I wouldn't go with wire that big.

    if you are at a welding supply retailer they will have lugs for any size wire they carry. useally up to 4/0. but do yourself a favor and ask if they have them in bulk on the back shelves. cost less than the little 1 or 2 packs that are on the racks up front. also get a 2lb spool of solder. those lugs hold alot.

  9. thanks to all...i'm actually typing from the hospital now. i was home for less than 2 weeks after the surgery and had to go to the emergency room sat morning because of lung pain. tests located a blood clot in my lungs, so now it will be a week of shots. weekly blood checks and pills for 6 months. re check to see if it went away. as for the neck....that was part of the original injury it was just a pain that went away so we only focused on the back. well after the surgery i had nueropothy in my left arm from my elbow to the fingertips.(extreme pain pins and needles) couldn't even use the hand to hold a piece of paper for 3 days. so they did a cat-scan on my neck and found a buldge on a cervical disc. don't know at this time if we are going o knife that one or not. depends on my comfort level. hope to be in the comfort of my home and family today.

  10. ill have to throw up some pictures of the jet boats ive been around.

    My uncles building one now with a camaro engine. havent been around to see it yet but it's supposed to be done this summer.

    lets see those pics

  11. okay kinda noob question if theres 2 15s in a car with trunk compared to the exact same setup in a 2 door hatchback how much louder would the hatchback be? same box same amp etc etc. lets say the car with trunk hit a 147 on tl how much more would the hatchback hit? 2 dbs more? more or less? i know it will be louder just dont know how much louder. its a ported box. i feel like a :noob:

    there are too many variables to get an honest non-biased response to the question. fact being you could have the exact same 2 vehicals with the same setup and go to taco bell in one and burger king in the other and your meter readings will be pizza

  12. nice!! i have a soft spot for jet boats.. although im a outboard fan myself.

    not a jet boat but a boat i helped build

    DSC00658.jpg

    DSC00659.jpg

  13. nice!! glad to see its coming along, plan on putting it in the water this summer?

    dont know i was planning on fathers day but i have back disc surgery in june so i hope for the boat to hit water before the smmers over. surgery going to lay me up for a few months of bed rest only. then i get to do the phys therapy thing again for 6-8 months
