Damn it looks snazzy in there.  Must be preparing for isobaric... ?

Nope, rebuilding this winter when I get the other 2 Neos.  Did this bracing because the back wall was flexing pretty bad...it's amazing how much force is exerted on the enclosure when you're running 10kw lol

I ordered a termlab magnum a few days ago, so it will happen soon lol

It's going to be semi gloss black with a big lime green DC Audio logo on each side

Definitely!

 

So we had a pre-DBs for diabetes meet on Sunday, I gave a ton of demos and tons of videos were postedoing. Here are a couple:

My buddy's 10 year old son wanted a demo...we agreed that I would roll up slowly at his signal and back off if it was too loud.  To all of our surprise, he took it full tilt!  He was wearing ear plugs (his parents are responsible people :) ) and I didn't play the more painful songs (high notes aren't as violent but definitely hurt more). But anyway, he actually took it better than half the adults! Definitely a future basshead!

This guy actually caught the elusive eyebrow flex! Watch my eyebrows closely between 18 and 20 seconds lol

I taped up the Passenger door to see if I could match the 157 from when I had the orion.... well, the windshield decided it couldn't take it and completely let go at 156.4 on the roll up around 3 clicks from full tilt.

Here are a couple videos of it spitting glass on the only demo I did after it let go

 

 

Taped it up yesterday so I could give another demo last night:

This was actually one of the worst times for it to happen since the biggest show in Wisconsin is Saturday and they say to give the adhesive a week to fully cure and the soonest appointment they had open is Thursday.  So it's either shower people with glass Saturday or likely blow out the seal on a brand new windshield.  That or miss out on a show I've been planning on all year.  Well...

Since showering people in glass is quite a bit less of a pleasant option, I decided I'm going to build a stripper pole, get the new glasses installed and just send it!

 

More updates tomorrow when I get to work on the roof

Got a delivery today!  After I ordered the termlab I purchased a new laptop a few days ago to replace my current machine.  That way I could use my old laptop as an audio laptop since I purchased the term-pro enclosure software and promoter pack.  The fact that I have 3 extended life batteries for it and the chassis is magnesium were two main reasons I decided to upgrade vs buying a cheap laptop for audio use.  The other bonus is that my old laptop is still quite a powerhouse, it has a 2.6ghz core I7 quad core, nvidia 5200m video card, 12gb of RAM and a 120gb SSD.  Probably a wee bit overkill, but overkill has kinda been the theme lately hahaha.

I also did a thing today...I tried talking myself out of it a few times, but ended up closing my eyes and clicking:

I think this is the first component I have bought for the truck that I couldn't legitimately justify to myself hahaha  But I gotta say, JY's customer service kicks ass, they put up with all of my questions and attempts to talk myself out of it as well as giving me accurate, no bullshit, unbiased information to base my decision on. Definitely a great company to work with.  It should be shipping out tomorrow.

 

On another note, I really wish I had time to set up my new meter and play with the new enclosure software.  I'm really curious how it's accuracy compares to winisd.  Unfortunately I have a business plan I've been working on for the last 20hrs (minus a few of those hours for short breaks like this one as well as a 2hr nap lol) and still not done with yet!  And when I'm done with it, then I have to get the welding on the roof / reinforcement done asap since my windshield will be getting installed tomorrow morning and I haven't even started on the stripper pole or welding or anything yet! ugh, there needs to be more time in the day lol

Finally got started on the roof reinforcements and stripper pole mount only to run out of wire. To top it off, I can't find my damn spare spool. Satellite will be here between 8 and noon and the store doesn't open till 7. Gonna be cutting it close.
