    Who else loves alcohol?

    I must agree! Except I try not to drink too much while installing electronics/fabricating anything... But a beer here and there is always good while out in the garage I use to love being hammered, but now I love to just get nice and drunk so I can still at least semi-function. Thanks for moving it. I love a good frozen margarita with some fajitas, but its Corona w/lime if I order anything else... If I feel like getting drunk for cheap while still tasting good-monster and mccormicks. For the most part, im picky about my vodka. Tito's/Absolut/Belvedere, but this monster+cheapy is surprisingly good!

    High Excursion Drivers

    Ah hell, should I wait for these instead of doing 4 MJ18s? When are these coming out???
  5. I love the old round solobarics, but I REALLY miss the 8800 series(TC-7 if I remember right) Eclipse Aluminums. My first set of subs were the MTX 6000s, my second sub I ever owned was an Eclipse 8812. Absolutely LOVED that eclipse! Really makes me want to pick up a T3000 that is on sale right now, but you just can not beat the value of the Mach5Audio drivers...

    My fucus install thread... MMMM fiberglass :D

    Damn Sean, I didnt even know this was your sn over here! Pending on how much I like them in my car, I still might work something out for a bookshelf. Just no time until I finish up this install Once its done, then it will be time to venture into the world of DIY home audio, and I cant wait Thanks man, I really love doing this stuff... Just wish I had more time, but between working 30 hours a week and taking 14 hours this semester, not much time left over. Thanks Thanks Denim, I intend to once I get the other box built. Im still incredibly surprised at how accurate it is, even in a 6.5 cube enclosure. I just hope itll work well in 4 cubes net, because that is the only way I can fit 4 of them

    Mach5Audio MAW-10 review...

    Hey everyone, figured I would copy this review I did from DIYMA First off, I wasnt honestly expecting much from a $30 subwoofer. I figured it would sound decent, probably be a bit sloppy, and hopefully give me a little thump... Boy was i wrong, big-time... I have tried a single MAW-10 in a 1.2 cube ported enclosure tuned to 26Hz, a pair in a 1.8 cube common chamber sealed enclosure, and lastly 4 of them in a 6 cube ported enclosure tuned to 45Hz(talk about a fart cannon!). I really wish I would of got around to making some different size enclosures tuned differently, but these were what I had lying around. 1.2 cube ported enclosure tuned to 26Hz- Sub had great transient response in this enclosure, it was just as "fast" as the pair were in the sealed enclosure. I really enjoyed the response of this enclosure, and it was no doubt my most favored enclosure out of the 3 I tried. The low tuning helped it extend low, while not being over-powering. Even with any sort of tweeters hooked up, I actually enjoyed hearing the Exclusives and the single MAW-10 on the song Lateralus by Tool. Chemical Brothers- Star Guitar has an extremely fast bass-line, and this thing kept up PERFECTLY well with no overhang what-so-ever. Stayed very linear and tight even at high volumes. VERY impressive, if I do say so 1.8 cube sealed enclosure for a pair - I never really have been a fan of sealed enclosures, unless a high xmax driver was used, because of the not-so-stellar low end performance. I guess I really like that lower octave to actually be noticed and a bit more pronounced than necessarily transparent. The subs were very accurate, and had great response between 40-80hz, opposed to the ported enclosure having great response from 25-60 or so. 6 cube ported fart cannon- This was a common chamber enclosure built for sheer SPL. You know you have a loud system when you can set off multiple car alarms with the windows UP, lol. The subs were still accurate until you turned it up just before clipping, but once it became a bit painful they started to lose some accuracy, no big deal as this box wasnt going to make them shine in SQ Id really of liked to get this metered, as it literally hurt off a mere 1000wRMS... They held up perfectly fine with no VC smells what-so-ever All-in-all, absolutely great drivers for the money! If you are on a budget, Id highly recommend these subwoofers!
