    Twin Towers BUILD LOG

    Thanks Edub, it makes it so much more fun bringing the family into it and teaching them how to run it as well. Glad you dug #55, over the years I've caught a lot of heat time and time again... I've gotten pretty good at acting like a child and lashing out, that was one of few times I think I habdled myself quite well shoulda picked up a PS3... wish i was a gamer.... I almost grabbed one anyway numerous times but I couldn't justify paying 3Xs for something I'd never use

    Thats silly string all over, the black lights and colored lights light it up... looks cool in person, dirty in pics so 2 of my gaskets were warped from sitting outside and were rubbing the surrounds so I took em off. I get the new 4 any day now, Ill put the new ones in the HT and use these in the van. built shelves to set stuff on on the sides of the bleechers. wish I couldda got the crackhead to help with that back during summer, much better speaker placement means everything got the four 18's today for the VAN, decided to put them in the towers cuz I am getting serious buzzing I hope the new gaskets will cure, and my reconing job was as pretty as my speaker stands

    my camera sucks, trying to clean it with rubbing alcohol Of course speaker placement changes everything, I knew that, but my initial plan was ordering six 21" Maelstrom-X's and 14 Anarchy's, doing seven MTMs for 7.1 surround. To get me buy until then I was just gonna use those cheap walmart cubes, but they work surprisingly well and I just can't afford better for now. They are HIDEOUS and one has a bad stain, so I tuked them back into the entertainment center to hide them. Well with the added two 18's my substage SQ went way up, so Ive been doing more critical listening (sure those cubes are as bad as it can get, but the receiver sure milks them for what they're worth) and I just couldnt take the "tunnel vision" from them being 3' deep between the towers. I brought them out, real ugly I know, but OMFG! I had to back things down 2dB off the batt, but even my woman looked at me right away like "wow, did that really just happen? Did that really change things that much?" Cuz now it's actually surround, not mono muffled The surrounds faced forward, were hard to hear, now theyre standing out like they should.

    http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1231247&page=11 So my lady wants me to build some ugly stairs to go with the ugly clown room, and I wanted to test the Towers to see how much of the flex is pressure VS driver vibration... if it's mostly pressure and I need to brace all 6 sides, I need a minimum of 40 2"x4"s, 8 front to back each, 8 side to side each, 4 center to top each. But I put some white stickers in diff spots to see if it was the same flex all over or just by the driver. Lucky me! 24Hz is where it is worst, but a few Hz in each direction and flex is minimal. Took the drivers out of the 10 cube box, put them back in the towers. Ill most likely put the 2nd driver's on the inside top otherwise outside top here's the vibration vid

    Blade got back to me, he's considering doing a run of them, but overseas shipping would be a killer. There's a guy on caraudiotalk.com that'll do them for $25 with measurements, but I can't get the measurements from Blade, and I can't make them without the alt. rock/hardplace lol

I am trying to get ahold of this guy for dimensions of his adaptors, maybe the OP can fabricate them?

    alt it is, thanks guys! any idea when (if) iraggi will be back? Everywhere else wants almost $100 more for the Iraggi I have.

    more batteries or more alts

    well for any system, if you have more current draw than you can support, what would be better. batteries or alts. whether my sony xplode 1000 watt peak amp isnt getting enough, or my 16 SAZ4500Ds, if I need more either way but can only do one, alt or batt
