    Those might be the grossest chips I've ever had. Tried some last night. I am pretty sure it is a southern thang.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Someone wanted a tribal tat? Was a couple I have tatt'ed on many times. They showed up for their appointment and I was running 5 minutes behind as i am working the shop by myself as i fired the last incompetent MFer. I was straight up with them and told them that I am struggling with a ruptured disc, running a few behind, had an MRI this week, and they are up next. Stupid MFer's obviously watch to much TV and had pre conceived notions that when they walk in a shop that there will be 10 artists ready to do their tatt's in under 30 minutes like on the tv shows. As i said earlier, the shit people waste their free time on. Dumb ass TV baby's.

    I am on my 8th Honda car, have a pressure washer with a Honda, A Honda ATV, have ran a cement mixer with a Hondie, VERY reliable. Mixer would start at 10 below on the first pull. YES the cars are pop can's and a death trap at that, Who doesn't like living on the edge though. LOL

    Mid-Bass Driver Selection

    He claims it will fit, as that was my first thought also. I am by no means an expert but since no one else seems to do anything other than tell him not to do it, I have taken it upon myself to help the guy out as I can see from the equipment the OP is using he is sincere. I wouldn't even waste my time if I didn't think the guy is serious. You know what you know, you know.

    Homie is going to run 12" mid's. He followed the SSA rule's in asking the question. It may not be what a lot of ppl would do but thats up to the OP. So lets help this guy pick out the driver that will perform the best possible for his application. The Phase plug will help with the upper freq's or they wouldnt even use them. We can debate how much it will help, but the fact is its going to help more than a driver without. Would a 12" be what the people with super human hearing would run, probably not, everyone has already agreed on that. The OP is aware that asking a 12" to perform that high is a tall order. He is aware of the compromises his is making. Sencheezy, I assume you asked Eric about the EA driver? Is it possible the reason he suggested the other drivers is perhaps because they are one's he is familiar with? So is more comfortable with suggesting them. Lets take a look at what Eric suggested. The Faital Pro: http://www.usspeaker.com/faital%20pro%2012pr300-1.htm The Beyma: http://www.usspeaker.com/beyma%2012G40-1.htm The Eminence: http://www.usspeaker.com/Delta-12LFC-1.htm The Beyma: http://www.usspeaker.com/beyma%2012p80Fe-1.htm The driver you found on your own. Good job btw. The EA: http://www.aespeakers.com/drivers.php?driver_id=7 Of course they will all meet the requirements you are after. Each one has its own strong points and will have a different sonic signature. I personally feel the EA has the most going for it for your application, as it's going to work well in your IB setup down low, and is designed to be ran in in a car to begin with. The phase plug is also a plus. I may be wrong, SO lets hear what the experts have to say?

    Thanks for getting in on the conversation 95. I respect your opinion and advice. The OP is set on running a set of 12s. I have taken a lot of my time to help the OP understand why and what he's doing. The link to the EA speaker is above. It has a phase plug and a good range, plus decent Xmax.

    ^This is why the phase plug is important If you're going to do the 12. Midbass is a product of the Xmax X cone area=sd.

    Could you perhaps graph these out so I can compare, or tell me why you believe the the AE will blow this one away? It's not too late for me to cancel the order.

It's not too late for me to cancel the order.I have no problem modeling when I have time. I personally spoke with Eric Stevens before and yes he knows his shit. But at the same time he is a busy guy and will go with the easiest suggestion. I took the time to analyze and give you the best recommendations I can. Have spent the time to get you what is best for your application.

    The EA driver you had chosen will blow that driver out of the water in ALL aspects. Eric S. must have stock in that company or gets a kick back. I take it nothing we discussed here, in PM or the chat sunk in if you are going to grab driver B just because Eric said you should. YOU really need to understand why you are doing things, not just go with this persons or that persons suggestions.

    Considering it is a one lane road (or sure as hell felt like it at the time) I certainly had the pucker effect going on. I will say this tho, you may drive like a mad man, but you know what you are doing. The trip wass certainly woth it once I saw the view. Have my fingerprints finally came off the door? J

    Equal Loudness Curve and SQ

    The equal loudness curve is measured in phons not db's. If there was as much harmonics going on up high people would want to boost that too for the same subjective reason. There is not a lot going on in most music above 10-12k.
