jizmj. So.....I got a new job. start in 2 weeks. It's with the Kansas Dept. of Health & Environment over in Topeka. But I'll still live in Lawrence and just commute the 30 minutes because Topeka sucks. I'm pretty happy. I'll make 50% more than I'm making now (I guess that's what happens when you get a real job), good state benefits, and pretty strict on no overtime. Which is good for a guy like me, who defines his life by who he is, not his job, and while liking your job is important, it's more or less just to pay for you to live.

lost power....

as I was reading through this I kept thinking it was an amp problem. Then at the end I see you found it. I know the newish Orion amps don't like being fed under 12 volts or so. I've heard a number of people either having the problem or warning about it. -
Get a few FI BTL's, Incriminator Death Penalties, or Mach 5 SPLs, etc, and a few Sundown 3000d's, IA 40.1s, etc. Then get a larger alternator or two and maybe a couple batteries. Then get about 400 sq. feet of sound deadening products and put about 5 layers throughout your entire vehicle. that should cost you about 5 grand.

This last weekend my family was staying in a hotel by the Kansas City speedway and there were cars running around it all the time. My stepdad and I wanted to go out there and race our vehicles, my Explorer vs. his Durango.

That's what I was going to say. If it doesn't make the noise outside the box, it's an airleak. If carpeting goes underneath the sub when mounted there is often not an airtight seal there. Plus I doubt those people used sealant on the inside edges of the box. Also check the wire terminals on the box. If it does, something is probably wrong with the sub. The voice coil may be a little out of alignment or a little mangled in some way to make it hit the motor.

Try some Image Dynamics Chameleons.

I agree. All of my cables have been 17 dollar Lightning Audio or Schoches. In my home theater I'm even still using some old radio shack, probably 4 dollar RCAs. Kinda want to change those out soon though, haha.

how much are the older Eclipse Aluminums going for now?
-
those are some huuuuge sub boxes! I hope you put some handles on them

is that dude on the powered chair part of the tour? haha. I hope that one blue truck is packin' cuz it sure ain't pretty.
-
maybe try and find an older SI BM. Or maybe an Image Dynamics.

I don't think the L5 would compare to any Fi sub because it sounds like poo. Unless they changed them a lot from the L5's and L7's I heard a couple years ago.

Damping Factor/Slew Rate/Muddy Sound Question
KU40 replied to JonnieBlaze's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
I always get so confused when the Rockford 360.2 gets mentioned because I think of it as an amp, not a processor. Didn't they make an amp with that exact number? I know they made a 360a2, not sure if that particular amp made it into when they started using . instead of a. -
I thought you didn't like your CVX's and were looking to replace them? Regardless, you don't need to put them in separate chambers. Put them all in one with one port. Easy and done. Just make sure to brace it.

I don't know that the Lakers can win all 3 consecutively at home. I think it'll go back to Boston 3-2 Celtics.

my brother got married this last saturday. It was a real fun weekend. They had a metal arch over them while they were doing the ceremony and the wind almost knocked it over in the middle of it. But I caught it. Not sure if my brother and his wife noticed or not, probably not. But after the ceremony one of my brother's friends said "That was a great save, you probably saved the wedding. Too bad that also lost you the MVP of the ceremony because if that would have fell we could have won $100,000 on funniest home videos." haha. I also spent about 6 hours total in the casino between saturday night and sunday and came out 10 dollars ahead. Not too bad I say. Had my normal down-on-the-slots-but-made-it-up-on-roulette thing going on. Maybe I should just play roulette all the time. ha. But slots are fun.

does anybody know why my shoulder hurts a lot? It's like a nagging thing, not a sharp pain but dull and irritating and zaps all my motivation. It's kinda right in the middle of my shoulder. Not up top on that muscle connecting to the neck, but just under it. I've felt it or some lesser version of it for the last few months. I'm wondering if it's because my right arm is propped up on the computer desk all day at work now, since I've started working full time at this place in January.

yeah I just drink tap. MUUUUUCH cheaper and still has some minerals in it (dependant on where you live).

maybe he likes more midrange/midbass? I don't know, I was just trying to clarify.

So......the lesson of the day is that 30% HCl stings a little.
