  1. Sorry, off topic but i love your sig "got slap?" Sounds like a pin got bent inside or something. just grab a decent USB external sound card. Simple, and effective.

    But that requires a tiny bit of extra thinking. Not rocket science, but for the dude who just barely read up, and uses ALL his wire just because it looks cool, he's screwed. But you're right, it could work.

    Rockford Fosgate 40001bd

    I was gonna post this in the off topic section, but it's slightly audio related, and i just wanted to ask because it seems ridiculous. The RF 40001bd amp is supposed to be 4k rms at 1ohm, pretty sexy, whatever. If i recall it has ONE set of 1/0ga power and ground terminals. With a fuse rating of 500amps, and knowing that 1/0ga wire has a capacity of ~300amps doesn't that mean they failed? Off the top of my head, the Sundown 4500D has dual power and ground, and for what seems like a good reason. The only solution to this problem i see is to have your amp ridiculously close to your rear battery bank. Just me rambling on, thanks for comments.

    Addiction sucks.

    Actually, it is exactly that, a lack of will power. "You're powerless to your addiction." I heard that shit a hundred times a day. I can tell you've never been to a treatment center. Addicition is more than a weak will and being lazy. If that was it, i'd be cured by now. As to your Triple C's comment? Ffirstly wrong chemical, secondly, i'd like you to find ten square miles, outside of unihabited land, where you can't find huge amounts this crap. It's everywhere. Not easy. I'm willing to work, but people like you make it easy to not want to. If you have nothing productive to say, don't say it. Edit: I want to smack you with my NA book.

    i have not been around much

    I got a few friends caught in the game. Things can get bad, but don't quit man, don't give up. God man, i'm barely 16 and the world's already fucked me. Shit sucks, but you know what happens after shit sucks? It gets better. Give it time, do what you gotta do to get by and keep comin to SSA. Friends make the world go 'round. Keep them close, and keep your head up. You're the cool dude, with the Linc and the 'Shades. Keep it pushin bro. Sorry for my language. Bad day

    Addiction sucks.

    Sure there's very little evidence that it's physically addicting. (Still doesn't mean it's not) But then you still have the psycological aspect. Hell dude, you can be addicted to chocolate and the discovery channel. Anything in excess is a problem (except loud bass ) We all have ways of dealing with stuff but you have to look at it long term and decide if you see yourself where you want to be down the road. Personally i would rather be addicted to weed than a chemical that after [only] a year of use has me disoriented and seriously wondering if i'm knocking on death's door. Addiction in general is bad, but to everyone their problems are big. That's not a diss to anyone; look at it this way: over in africa people are wondering if they will get anough food to live through the week, thats the biggest problem in their life. Over here, Timmy's date dumped him for the football player for prom, and he got rejected from another college. Thats the biggest problem in his life. It's all relative.

    Couple questions about my sub & amp

    I like Pioneers. Good starter subs, never gave me any problems other than with an AQ2200D on a pair of 150rms subs

    4th order bandpass

    true dat.... Just curious as to why you tune higher. Guess it's back to books for me!

    4th order bandpass

    I recently read Galamonkeys avalanche build and the specs of the box were something like 4cuft sealed chamber for two 18" btls, with a high tuned ported chamber. He commented saying the lows were quite good. now, separetly a 4cuft sealed box for two 18" btls would sound bad, and a high tuned box would not hit any lows. How does that add together and work well? Off the top of my head, it seems like a large sealed chamber with a low tuned ported chamber would be the smart choice. I've never been able to experiment with bandpass boxes, so cut me a little slack.

    Difficulty Finding Enclosure

    Only problem with that is sometimes they don't cut the wood exactly to your spec. I got so pretty shady looking "straight" cuts

    Upgrading from BL 15" to BTL 15"

    Very true.

    Upgrading from BL 15" to BTL 15"

    Fosgates are hungry. Yellow top up front and one or two in back would be good. Sounds good though

    Building a Transmission line

    I don't think i'm understanding you. What plans specifically? The plans for your box specifically. No one here is going to make a design for you. You've worn out any spoonfeeding potential you have on this site. Either post your plans and goals the next time you post in this thread or don't post in this thread again. Oh. Dimensions and specifications and such? i need to learn more about T-lines in general to decide that. I'm gonna stop now, and hit the library today. I'll post again after hitting a few sites. Links to good sources are also appreciated. -Chris

    Building a Transmission line

    I have read that T-lines can be more efficient (sound produced vs power used), as well as beneficial to drivers with less motor strength. I have had ported boxes, several actually, and i like them overall, but the low low end is stil a bit lacking, and though it might be corrected with a bigger box, or little more power, that isn't really an option. Basically, i am after efficiency.
