    Welcome to the IHoP

    Ohh and I have physical therapy today, as well as I am supposed to mow the lawn... Sleep is over-rated anyways.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Good morning people. I am really happy, I thought I was getting my bonus check with my normal paycheck on this upcoming Friday, when my Nursing supervisor hands it to me last night at work. So now I am not broke. Just waiting for the bank to open so I can cash it, and order some 1/0, new battery terminals, go pick up some more wood, buy my friend a present, put money on my phone, than fall asleep to go back to work tonight.

    I like alot of 8 ohms drivers No reason to rate a car amp for 8 ohms, though, as most "general public" people would shy away since "less ohms are better." Didn't you get the memo *laughs* I was saying something that makes me think uber quality, is having an amps main ratings in 8 ohms. Seeing as so few drivers are 8 ohms, although if I remember correctly, the higher the impedance the greater the channel separation. Plus, most compression horns are 8 ohms.

    And I do???? I drive a 98 Dodge neon that I paid 800 dollars for. Either you have a classic or you don't spend a lot of time with your car. Me I spend a lot of time with my car, and am never really awake when home. Plus I can completely destroy an 800 car with stereo stuff and not feel guilty.

    How much louder is the 18'' ?

    It is probably noticeably louder closer to fs than the 15 from increased cone area. If I had the space I would go 18".

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Your ht set-up already makes me jealous. as when I buy a new cd I have to listen to it in my car as I lack the equipment to give it a proper audition in my house.

    Memphis MSYNC8 questions

    they'll get lower for sure. louder maybe. and they'll work fine in door, jsut seal it up well, and you'll love those 8's. if the right offer is made, i might be tempted to pull my sq 6.5s out and sell them to ya, lol. i've got a pair of kicker ss 6.5s on my floor waiting to go in.... with a pair of rmb8 midbasses...hehe wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I traded my sq6.5's for a DD m1. But that was after I totalled my sq car and was lost, and just wanted to turn over a new leaf and do something different.

    What screams uber* quality to me is when an amplifier company rates their 4 channels @ 8 ohms rms for the rated power, even though they are stable to 2 ohms. lol. But there aren't too many 8 ohm drivers laying around right now, except for some hlcd's.

    Memphis MSYNC8 questions

    The good news is you could probably use the parts express dayton tweet with this set up and the 8" mid will reach down lower and should have a little more midbass. I wouldn't be mad, If you are after output than these should work pretty good for you, if you are after all out spl, you would definitely have some issues with the msync's.

    Memphis MSYNC8 questions

    if ordering the replacement silk tweeter like jim suggested ( i prefer the silk one as well. the sq's in my truck rock), order the sq crossovers if staying passive. like mentioned before, you can biamp..... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yep, I went to the msq6's from the msync's. Biamping just makes life a little easier for me.

    Memphis MSYNC8 questions

    I had a major issue with the original tweets in my msync8"s and I returned mine the first day I onwed them. I had the mids in a modified qlogic kick. I would do separates's with a better tweet if it were me.

    I know I already worked the first eleven hours of my sunday (midnight to 11 am) and I am going back soon to work the last hour of it as well.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    IMO, OBD-II cars are easier to get through emisions. OBD-I cars have to be put on the rollers and they measure the exhaust while OBD-II cars they just plug in and check the computer. Well that is cool, b/c than I can buy a 96 and have body color matched mirrors and stuff!... Awesomeness. (I am thinking a nice head/cam swap and a nice true dual exhaust would sound very nice). 97's have the LT1 too FYI I know. I also know that 96 is the first year for obd-II on this car, it was also the first year they offerred body colored mirrors and all of that fun stuff. I am just settling, I would love an ls2 camaro, but their owners always want soo much for them (they sell for around 14 grand for a 98- and so forth). The lt1 cars are a lot more reasonable, and for some reason are generally less beat on.

    That is awesome... gives me an idea for once I can finally drink as I have extra motors and transmissions laying around, although mine will only have 4 cylinders.

    my btl blew

    The only possible way I can think of that he blew up a btl in 5 minutes would be with two severely clipped signals and the voice coils wired backwards. Which shouldn't happen with "professional installation" We are all curious as to how you managed to kill a sub that could probably out last a circuit breaker on a wall outlet. And need I restate my point...

    How did you guys find SSA???

    Im guessing that mine would be one of the familiar names from TC sounds forum. Anyways I found SSA when I got bit by the Fi bug.

    HiT dEM LoWS!

    I am glad you found the website Another personal favourite is the Beethoven album with "Piano Sonata #14." It is not a bass track, but it is so beautiful on decent mids/tweets. Most would recognise this song as "Moonlight Sonata." Yes, but I believe fur elise is such a better song to show off good mids and tweets. With great staging this song really comes to life.

    15 btl vs 15 bl, which fits my needs?

    I would still go bl. As long as you are responsible and don't clip your signal too badly the bl's should be happy with 2000 watts rms as music is dynamic.

    Scrubs is awesome, as well as Grey's anatomy and House. Maybe i do love hospital shows, damn.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I am thinking of finally buying a more fun car than my neon... I am thinking 93-95 lt1 camaro (obd1 so easier for inspection/ emissions). The alternator is right in your face when you open the hood making that an easy swap, and god knows that there are too many large body h/o gm alts to be had. I was thinking street C, like 6 10" woofers and 6 sundown saz-3000d's. 2 group 31 nsb's, 16 runs of 1/0, and a very large dominic irragi alt. If I get the car, I am definitely doing 8" kicks and compression horns for the front soundstage.... God I need to stop daydreaming out loud and get some sleep.

    10's the debate

    I think the oem 10"s are the best deal for that price range. I love mine.
