So I used to be in fantastic shape during my military career until I destroyed a couple of discs during my tour in Iraq. Here is a pic of me before my back started falling apart And then I got slammed with a bunch of anti-anxiety / depression meds for ptsd, as well as opiods for my back pain. I don't think the drinking helped either. Well I'm going back to the gym this week to get back to where I was. Sometimes it's hard because I can't get too aggressive at the gym, but we'll see and I'll post progress here as we go.

ROFL. WTF is this?

I'd rock a BK800.4 for $140. That's what I'm doing lol. Selling my Linear Powers and buying a cheap PPI.

2003-2004

Oh shit! Hope you're ok man.

With enough pull, I would love it. SO much potential, but it will never reach it. Dealing with old "SQ" competitor owners who will not move forward.

Anyone ever walk out on a job before? My head was fucked up too many times in the desert for me to deal with car audio sales anymore. Wife says just get the fuck out. Any advice? To all the kids wanting to work in a shop for a living, don't, it burns you out faster than you could ever imagine.

Holy shit, those are bad as hell. Those compression drivers tho..... mmmmmmmm

Yea Q. There's so many high frequency options, full rangers, horns, tweeters, etc. 6.5-8" midbasses that blow others out of the water is something I think that would be extremely profitable. How much time do we spend arguing with rookies about why pwx's are crap?

would be interesting. If anyone can... it'd be him.

Wow, there's a reason I love SSA. Now there's another one.

Installed an Audison AV5.1k the other day. That's a badass amp. Expensive as all hell but wow.

Everyone's worried about 18's and 10's and I'm just sittin' here waiting for Q to kill Exodus Anarchy's...

And seriously, thank you. LOL no problem. You all need to relax. I used to be like a lot of people on here. All kinds of gung-ho and getting mad at sarcastic responses but shit after awhile, that's all you can do to keep from banging your head against a wall. People have to be honest to truly help someone. Wasting money sucks, but it happens! Once we learn, we go "shit that sucks, ok, where am I headed". There's only so much hand holding before people get burned out and start getting annoyed. Facebook audio groups are so bad it's to the point that the only FB audio friends I follow are bigjon and Aaron. As someone that works in the industry, audio terrified me. Shops are selling supertweeters and "pro-audio" all day long and then they come to my shop to try and "troubleshoot" the install for better "SQ and SPL" All I can do is try to educate. Don't let Sean bum you out. He's honest, and he's fucking smart. Is he too much sometimes? Yea but generally smart people don't do well with people skills. Oh well. I've spent a lot of time chatting with Brad and Sean. They let me pick their brains all the time and never complain. The thirst for knowledge is never a problem here, the assumption of knowledge and desperation for acceptance and praise is a problem.

No 70% is ~45mm Goddamn

Why not 3 DSS Ethos 15's?

I work in the car audio industry, and I have to say, Aaron did EXACTLY what he could to rectify the situation. People have been driven by electrical devices for so long that they assume a machine is customer service. The machine says I have 3 dash kits in stock, but I had no way of knowing that last month someone stole one. I apoogize and try to fix it. That's customer service. Human beings make errors. It's life. If you were at McDonald's and they ran out of Sprite, would you hop on the internet and piss and moan about the worst service you've ever had in your life? I think not. Grow up. This just solidifies my faith in a fantastic company with outstanding customer service. You should have thanked Aaron, and moved on. Don't be a dick. My love for car audio dies more and more each day because of a generation of spoiled bastards with no regard with how the real world works. What the hell happened?

Called it.

In before "SPL and decent SQ"

Thanks for the good Northern California having good shops comment! Hehehe, besides that, damn this post is hard to follow.

Thanks for making this harder Q. If my wife leaves me because I decide to buy this, I'm billing you for child support.

Like I say man, it WANTS a smaller box! haha just grab a 15" box with an 18" hole. May need a little bit more port, but it'll be fine. Yea, broke for awhile. Lol VA's messin' with my money recently. Otherwise I'd be beating my piece of shit trailblazer to death with a smile on my face. It would be so rad to own the prototype lol.

GODDAMN. If I had money, I'd grab. I don't even know what I'd put it in! LOL

Smells like bullshit and cookin' coils, lol
