Forevrbumpn Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 I want your guys jobs Car stereo got boring, and got in to home audio, but Pro seems to be legit, and good business I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

You don't sleep, you injure yourself, you fend off hookers from the monitors guy etc etc I'm glad I rock a day job for most of the time. If you want to get into it, find a function happening somewhere near you and say you want to help out the FOH guy or Radios. It's a good foot in the door, and a hoot to do a show.

Forevrbumpn Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 for the past 2-3 years I have been doing appliance repair, now I work as a comercial appliance technician, servicing $20k ovens, $8k fryers, $4k microwaves, its not bad, and the side gig, speakers, but I don't know about the appliances any more, just waiting for my 4,000v shock from a capacitor to wake me up, and get me moving on something else I have a ritual called "terminator".

S15_Silvia Posted October 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Pro audio really has always intrigued me...just looking at such high-end stuff makes me salivate. I don't know if I could ever get into it though, at least not now. (not nearly enough cash) Rocking some pro subs at home would definitely be where I'd start though. 2016 Subaru BRZ | Sony XAV-AX100 | Rockford Fosgate DSM 4080 & DSM 40ix | On 6/6/2012 at 6:32 PM, 'LZTYBRN' said: 3.

qu1cks1lver56 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 I only got to see the Danley, wish I could tell you how it sounds but alas I have not heard the unit myself.And yes, the McCauley is massive. I can't think of anyone who would want to lift that thing. As for IBO; They design and build their own drivers in house. They seem to be of decent quality. Again, no VDOSC or CQ-1, but they do hold their own. I was quite suprised that I could get a flat +/-2dB response from 120Hz to 17KHz with a W-6F. Though the amps are heavy. Trade-off I suppose. In regards to power, it will be; 3 MX3600 3 MX2400 4 EONS 1 Lewis Legro Series 4500 01V96V2 Drive rack and processing Band Power All off 96 Amperes......yup.... Cheers, Mick sounds like its going to be fun... haha I use the software SpecLab with just a generic DBX RTA mic that comes with the Driverack 240. It does the trick once you use a FIR filter to allow for your PC RTA'ing itself...no soundcard is perfect, though I find DigiDesign products are very good for it. DBX RTA mic -> DigiDesign little box of computerised inputy-outputy - SpecLab I used to use the Behringer to be honest, it did the trick quite nicely. But then it burst into flame. We no use it no more. Cheers, Mick you like the software stuff? we've used a klark tech RTA mic forever, and that thing is pretty damn accurate. used to have a klark tech RTA unit too, but something happened to it and it doesnt power on now, so we use the driverack 480 now.

S15_Silvia Posted November 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 All right, I just bought a QSC RMX 850 for $170...not bad I don't think, and will put out roughly 860W into 4ohms bridged, which will definitely work for my sub (in sig) while I have it out of a car. EDIT: It's got XLR inputs, which I can buy an adapter for to run my RCAs to them. My question is, since I'll be running it mono, should I only get one adapter to put on the Channel 1 input? 2016 Subaru BRZ | Sony XAV-AX100 | Rockford Fosgate DSM 4080 & DSM 40ix | On 6/6/2012 at 6:32 PM, 'LZTYBRN' said: 3.

qu1cks1lver56 Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 if your receiver has a sub output, then yes one is all you need. when it's bridged it uses the channel one input First Gen Xterra: Always changing DNX 690HD RF 360.3RF T3002RF T4004RF T10001bdSilver Flute 6.5"s Tang Band 1" TweetersSundown X18 in 7cubes net tuned to 32hz Trust me .25 Blows your Load.

I won't be running it off a receiver though...I'm going to have an iPod running through a crossover with L+R RCA outputs, so would a 2-to-1 RCA adapter work for this?

S15_Silvia Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Here's the amp... I tested it out today, running an iPod into one of the 1/4" inputs and some 12ga wire to a random JBL coaxial I had lying around. I don't know what it is, but the sound was pretty terrible. Channel 1, channel 2, and bridged. Stereo and mono. Clipping limiter on and off. 50Hz HPF and 30Hz LPF tried. I don't know if it's the amp doing this, but I'm really hoping it's the iPod/wire/speaker's fault. Anyone got ideas? 2016 Subaru BRZ | Sony XAV-AX100 | Rockford Fosgate DSM 4080 & DSM 40ix | On 6/6/2012 at 6:32 PM, 'LZTYBRN' said: 3.
