Thanks guys. Derrr.

Well the amp has two channels of output. I was just not sure of the Input Impedance on the hi-level. But now that I think of it, it would have to be in the 4-8 ohm region since it is fed off of regular home amps. I could just figure out the input impedance and figure out what set of outputs to use on the amp based off the Zin and speaker combo. Forget what I asked before. You save some unnesessary work Jim I overlook some stuff a lot.

Oh yeah the S-10s are some older model Scott speakers. Late 60s era speakers if I had to guess

scott s-10? passive after the amp? what passive? Passive after the amp. Much like a car audio X-over. One for each speaker and have a plate with two sets of high level inputs. I guess I could Mod the interna; X-overs on the speakers too.

Now that I have pics, as long as the W gives the okay those will be coming here. I say don't even ask. Just do it. She'll get over it. She'll have to! Lol You are in the Twin Cities area correct? You may have to let me stop by and listen to them sometime on my way through the cities. That is if you get them.

I've been playing with some ideas in my head for about twenty minutes now. What do you guys think about adding a sub. Run my tube amp with a passive X-over then then run the highpass to my Scott S-10 Speakers and run the lowpass to the high level inputs on a plate. Just want to compensate on the low low end that the Scotts are lacking. Think it's a good idea or bad idea? Just thought about it on the drive home.

I still need to hear a set of those! My tech says they're great speakers.

Well I am out for a bit. Time to help a friend move for a bit!

Bah , there just trying to convince themselves the 10 g's they spent on a turntable was worth it That one's only $3g's The one they make out of solid cocobolo is the 'spensive one I still couldn't justify spending that much on a sexy turntable.

This Place is HoPping today! okay that was lame I know.

Definitly bleeding from the ass region. That is funny, and reminds me why I never ever want to do that. OMG bleeding from the ass region. what horid hell that must be I wish i could find the video on youtube. I found it on a contest for filming and editing site. My buddy was enetered for snowboarding.

I should post my Stanton on there! People would be like WTF who is this n00b lol.

I know what you mean there. My Kenwood Receiver has the analog meters on it and it is fun to watch if you don't have anything important to do. It's like watching a McIntosh, Just without all the black and green lighting.

Lol a purpose? What's that? I saw a video last night of some skateboarder try to do a handrail and bailed before he even had a chance to think. He started turning backside and one leg ended up each side of the handrail, then to top it off there was probably about a foot of kink at the bottom of the handrail(probably a ten stair). Well he defnitely missed most of the rail and landed at the kink! Definitly bleeding from the ass region. Showed a chair he was sitting in and was covered in blood. I'm BLEEEEEDing

MMMMMMMMMMM Watermelon!

I'm just installed a new battery in my nano... but... I don't have a soldering iron! My roomie does, he just has to find it though. Just called Wal Mart about the replacement plan and I should be getting this one fixed or replaced! Walmart carries iPods? sweet, maybe I can "return" mine there I'd be lost without my music this summer. I need something to listen to when driving a mower But go to BB or apple if you want one. Otherwise Just don't get one All they do is break! On number 3 right now. Probably number 4 if they send me a new one! have had mine for 4 years now.... What? How? My last one I took such good care of. Bought it a nice case and even did that clear plastic protection over the thing and never dropped it or anything. Lasted 3 months! The ones I am rough with have lasted A little over a year at the most.

Lol I did that back in the day with a ceiling fan. Whole different story and a big mess! Lol and I actually did laugh out loud to myself.

I agree with the cone area thing, I've been running 4 10s for a long time here and there. It was all I could fit, but I managed 4 12s in this car on about 400wrms. Not quite enough power but it does put out. Can't fit 4 15s, even thought about 8 10s but no amp room then and back to the weight issue again. These infinity sound better than I thought they would, but they really don't get moving that much either. At full tilt they are hitting maybe half of xmax...maybe why they don't sound bad. My system is gone at that point as the high side can't keep up. I don't think big xmax is the way to go IB, but hard to find info on that. That is why I always used as many drivers as I could so each would run easier. This can get fairly loud with them hardly moving at all. I can't find a weight, but they are heavy subs. The car was even without the subs and then was a little low with them, it is just not made to carry weight I guess...typical econo car. The rubber things lift it just a hair, all I wanted to do. It only has 65K on it, and only 125hp with an auto trans. If I could halve the sub weight I'd be happy, this is heavy as a box. Weight is only one reason, I want to try efficient subs anyway unless someone says they will not work and my memory of them is all wrong. I have plenty of amps to try, from 350 to 1kw RMS. Not sure what it will need, I assume less with more efficiency yet it may sound better overpowered (not overdriven). The subs I have looked at usually say half rms for IB, so I am around 100-200rms per sub with most I have found with better efficiency. Most of these amps are class D to help use less power. On the other hand I don't like overly dynamic IB subs a large amp can make. When pushed they seem to top out more, makes that typical IB issue worse. Trying to get an arc audio tripath to try, don't know much about them but seem to be pretty good? I tend to figure an amp has to be pretty trashy to sound bad on subs. I'll agree with what you say about an amp has to be trash to sound bad on subs. But from what I have read on heard about Tripath or Class T topology, it isn't anything special at all. An over-glorified class D amplifier. They changed some stuff with the feedback loop and the modulator and compacted most of it into a single IC instead of having discrete component output stage. You'd be better off with a proven Class D amplifier IMHO. I'm not 100% sure, but I am pretty sure. I was told to avoid Tripath for those reasons when I was looking into building a Class D for a school project. Not sure about you IB stuff though. Never had any experience with it. Lol

Wait now? It's on AIM? I have an account but never use it. Some details please

Off to my chitty job now. I might just quit after today. I really hate it. They want me to do all this chit for them and then drag their feet so I couldn't do it even if I wanted to. Lazy Motherpuckers! Just a waste of time. Big waste of time.

My iPod has officially taken a chit on me! Damn that's pisses me off!
