Thanks, that clears things up a lot. I didn't get no nut though.. not the end of the world, but was i suppose too? Wondering how come i didn't get no paperwork..

Alpine best for function IMO

Lookin' goooood & clean!

Okay great! I thought of this.. but wasn't sure if it was recommend or a "boo boo" way to wire it lol I hope sooo!

i'm sure it won't sound all that great on music, it will be tuned for burps only this time around. but your more then welcome to sit in it lol I get home in a day or two... then its crunch time. I have to make a stop at HandCrafted Car Audio too What numbers are you thinking you're going to get with this?

Yup, you're going to finish before me lol can't wait to get/give a demo!

Why?

"Some of you know that I have been testing and writing about products like these for more than four years. Here’s what I’ve learned in a nutshell: To control panel resonance you should use the best vibration damper you can find and only treat the 25% at the center of the panel. You won’t have to worry about asphalt melting or falling off and you won’t get black goo from cheap butyl compounds on your living room carpet. You will spend less, the project will be easier and the results will be better." - SDS

I'm looking to buy a new laptop, Alienware is what i want... The Alienware M15x. I need some opinions/thoughts on the configurations below. Dell customer service helped me out picking them.. (Its all gibberish to me) I told them i want it fast, dvd player, cd burner, and able to play Call of duty with no lag. How does this look? Alienware M15x, Cosmic Black Intel® Core™ i5-540M 2.53GHz (3.06Ghz Turbo Mode, 3M cache) 6GB Memory (1x 2GB, 1x 4GB DDR3) 15.6-inch WideFHD 1920x1080 (1080p) WLED 1GB GDDR5 ATI Radeon™ Mobility HD 5850 500GB SATAII 7,200RPM Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64bit, English Adobe Acrobat Reader Slot-Loading Dual Layer Blu-ray Reader (BR-ROM, DVD+-RW, CD-RW) Internal High-Definition 5.1 Surround Sound Audio Wireless 1520 802.11n Half Mini-Card Automatic Updates: On Primary - 9-cell (85Watt) Lithium-Ion Battery 1 Year Basic Service Plan Steam and Portal™ Factory Installed Internal Bluetooth 2.1 Mini-Card - 2.1 Enhanced Data Rate Standard Nameplate Total Price w/Discounts: $2,127.75

I'm on the Falcon website now, so far it looks good. The one with the i7 you were talking about is the DRX right?

I think he sepnt like 3,000 on it it was obsolete within 6 months, slew of problems. you can do much better with other companies. Do you HAVE to have a laptop? You could build a killer desktop for less than probably 1,000. I need a laptop because i stay in hotels roughly 200 days out of the year. Since a lot of you guys are saying that is an over kill for me, do you think the base model + a couple hundred dollars of upgrades would be good enough for me?

Great read! "DC Power High-Output Alternators are incredibly good at maintaining the set-point voltage as they can monitor and change their output up to 400 times per second!" ^Didn't know that, god daaaammm lol

I want an Alienware M15X. I don't want to switch up companies or computers. The 2 grand is fine with me. Why didn't he like the Alienware?

I'm pretty sure I have the electrical needed, but what do you recommend? -This is for Sundown Audio, not regular members that haven't owned the amp i am referring to in this thread.

This. Windows 7 is exactly that, ease of XP with the look of Vista. Have no complaints. Linux is great, but for someone with little to no computer knowledge, I think it is just to much a pita. Just for everyday use and gaming, stick with the Windows 7. So easy to use, everything is pretty much plug&play now. No hunting for the right drivers and compatibility (a MAJOR issue when using Linux). Window 7 it is then More interested in what people think about the configurations

What electrical are you going to be running?

So, i could have windows and ubuntu, then when i turn my laptop on i can choose what OS i want to use, right? Will it still have my stuff though? Say i save a song/desktop/program/picture will it be on both OS?

15 inch AA SMD should go on that list

Other then that, how does the rest look? - All i hear from people that use Alienware, is that its a great gaming laptop. I've never been into PC gaming.. it's just to fool around with after work. (Hotel life is boring)

I don't know if i need it.. i told the guy my budget and said i want a Alienware M15x and he upgraded some shit. Using it for web browsing, to watch dvds on, gaming. I like the sound of that

Let me check, i think its a few hundred.

They do look insane! lol What is Ubuntu? & why should i put it on? Good thing to hear!

My electrical consist of a 320alt from DC Power and 4 XS Power D3100s. Even if my electrical will be sufficient, i still want to know what JACOB recommends.
