    Billy Ray? No even. All he did to create his awesomely horrible mullet was buzz everything on his head but the very back. It looks so aweful.

    My dad has a mullet. Not joking. He decided to grow a mullet. He thinks he's funny.

    Team SSAudio T shirt pre order

    Yep We'll see......
  13. As many of you know, I was looking around for a high excursion 18" driver with a relatively high efficiency, low inductance, mid Q and low Fs for primarily IB use at a price of around $300 and couldn't find anything that combined all of my criteria. So, I got ahold of Adire to see what they could cook up. Info is down below. They "quoted" me a cost of around $250 per driver for an order quantity of 12. Plus shipping and a little give and take of the rough cost.........For now I'd say that one would run around $325 shipped to the lower 48 states (may be a little on the high side, but I'd rather over-estimate than under-estimate). I'm not making a profit on this....your price will be nothing more than actual cost + shipping. What I'm looking for here is an official "who's in" thread, as I'll need to have a minimum of 12 of these drivers sold. Also looking for any constructive criticism if you may have any. Proto's would be built mid- to late-January.....so this will take some time to arrive at your doorstep if it all goes through. So be sure you'll have the money then......stick it in a 3 to 6 month COD at your bank if you need to T/S Params: Fs: 22 Hz Qms: 5.2 Qes: 0.42 Qts: 0.39 Vas: 670 liters Sd: 1180 cm^2 Xmax: 28mm one way SPL: 94.1 dB @ 1W, 1m Re: 3.9 Ohms Le: 1.5 mH BL: 14 N/A Mms: 152 grams Cms: 0.35 mm/N Adire's Engineering Dept comments: "Nice and flat and extended.

    First Loss

    I can't believe you guys keep score in T-ball. When my daughter was in T-ball they didn't keep score, and with every hit they got to run all the bases. Heck, even now in the lower level softball they still don't keep score.

    SSAudio.com ....

    One of the reasons I don't post as often here as I do some other places is because of the quality of members. Most of the questions are answered, correctly no less, before I even get a chance to log on here. Just a pleasant place to be aswell. Everyone is always polite and cordial to each other. No out of control flame wars or nonsensical, worthless posts in threads where they don't belong. Just great answer to car audio questions from great members. The way it should be

    CRAP!!!

    Had something similar happen to me, twice. One time it was that my belt tensioner pulley had given out and fallen off, the other time it was the battery crapping out on me.

    high of 96 today too hot Holy hell! Must suck to live in AZ. For about the past two weeks or so it's been a cool 60-75 degrees outside everyday, which is about perfect. 60 is a little cool...but when it's around 70-75 it's just great. So nice.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Haven't posted in teh IHoP for a while Have some free time on my hands, so I've been slowly working on my stereo. Just need some odds & ends from PE to arrive tommorrow, and the amp rack should be ready to go in for semi-permanent mounting. Which means I'll actually have music in my car again for the first time in..ohhh....a month or so.

    How would you guys feel

    Yeah...beaming will be your worst enemy when trying to play 20khz through a 2" driver. If you read that "what DW thinks will happen in car audio in the near future" thing over on SIN...that's basically what Dan said is where he sees the market heading. A good, long excursion 2" full range capable of keeping it's composer down to ~250-300hz, playing all the way up to 20khz, with a shallow mount 8" midwoofer (which, by the way...if you're going to do the 2", you might aswell have them design you a shallow mount, long throw 8" midbass aswell and offer them as a set). What I would like to see, is an XBL^2 HLCD with a good full bodied horn body attached to it. Something that will play relatively clean down to ~250hz (with some EQ work)...but at 105db+ efficiency I had mentioned this to Dan a while ago in a thread over on ECA....he basically said it's completely possible. I just don't have the funds to do it.
  22. I'm using Mozilla Firefox. And it's only on this forum...any other webpage or forum and it works perfectly. But on this forum, anybody with large avatars and sigs (like mrray or Eldorado) causes the page to scroll very slowly (actually freezes up the browser for a few seconds) and the loading is very slow aswell. Any fix to this? Any settings I need to change in Firefox? Any other firefox users experiencing the same thing?
