    DIY component choices

    125w x 2 should be all that's needed if you stick with good 4ohm drivers (mids atleast....due to the tweeters higher sensitivity 8ohm will still work good). Hell, even ~60w to most 8ohm mids would be great on all except the real power hungry ones (like the Dayton Reference). Max Fidelity MF-170-75L/4 is a good 4ohm midbass driver that is supposed to be very similar in sound to Dynaudio. For infinite baffle setup (i.e. in your doors) you would want the high Q version: http://www.meniscusaudio.com/products/Meniscus.cfm Peerless HDS, Vifa MG, Seas CA18 and L18, Morel and Usher all make great mids that would work. Max Fidelity Neo30, LPG 25 and Seas (can't remember model # off hand) are all small dome tweets that would work. Morel has some large format tweets that are great.

    Got my new box done. Going to have one of the 15" Coustic DR subs up and running tommorrow. Also realized that I should have the box from my old stereo (consisted of four 12's) laying around at my dad's house. Should be able to just plug up 3 of the holes, drop the Rl-s in the 4th and have ~4-5cuft for it to play in. Saves me having to build a box for it when it's my turn to play

    RC's Amp Challenge

    Okay..well, let me ask you this (you can wait to answer till you're sober ): Two amps. Ones a class A. Ones a Class D (full range). Both measure to have a frequency response of +/-1db from 20-20khz, THD of below .1%, power output is identical, set for the same gain structure, damping factor is sufficient (>50) on both amps, and both have inaudible noise levels. Slew rates are likewise both in above the sufficient level. Will those two amps still sound different? If so, why? For this, we'll presume that no internal processing is in use (crossover, equalization/bass boost, etc). Nick must be drunk...he misspelled a word

    WTF....why is this forum so dead here lately? We need a good technical debate going in the advanced section. Someone think of something interesting to talk about

    I "pad" my shipping costs when I ebay something. But that's mainly as a way to recoup the $5-$10 ebay fee

    Welcome to the IHoP

    It wasn't even just LMT vs XBL^2. It was just an "in general".....everything from Faraday rings to underhung to LMT to just a pretty damn flat BL curve for a standard motor

    Maxxsonics Acquires MB Quart

    The only thing Hifonics makes that's worth two chits in a bucket is the Gen XX series. They took a good name and turned it into a majorly sub-par brand. Autotek also is, for the most part, not comparable to the Autotek of old. If they do the same with MBQ.....well...... MBQ may be designing the speakers, but they'll still have the parent company, Maxxsonics, telling them what to make and how to make it. And thus far I think it's pretty apparent that high quality isn't the first thing on Maxxsonic's mind. Yes, I'm a pessimist.

    He knows his chit, though...or at least from what I've read of his line array work on CAF. Who knows. He just comes off as a cocky arseho, especially in that particular thread ... That he does. Ofcourse, I can't complain too much. From what I'm told, that's how I come off a majority of the time

    Maxxsonics Acquires MB Quart

    Well, if they do with MB Q what they did with the Hifonics and Autotek names.....I think we can kiss MB Q goodbye as far as quality mid-line priced products go.....

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Time to put your foot down and tell them what's what. Either they clean up after themselves and obey your rules, or find somewhere else to stay. If the wifey gets mad at you for it....she'll get over it. And if she doesn't, well....then she must not have much respect for you or your sanity, which makes her a non-keeper anyways.

    One of them a girl who's hot? Any chance for some killer 3-way action? If not, go stay at a friends house. Unless the apartment/house is in your name only. Then just kick all of them out, including your g/f.
