5 channel > 3 channel. If you're selling to DIY'ers, a 3 channel needs another amp to run active, and if you're selling to the "Iwanna make it go bang bang loud y0" crowd, 450 watts won't cut it.

Since you're not competing in nationally sanctioned events, I assume you could run the voltage as high as you're willing to risk the amps

Why not simply run a separate electrical system for high-voltage loads? Run an alternator capable of being regulated up to 18V or whatever you want to use, and keep it totally isolated from the vehicle's 12VDC system...very straightforward.

Good tweet.

Class C is a lot worse.

The idea of a CA.com meet kind of scares me, in all honesty. There are a lot of people on there I definitely don't want to meet, even be in the same state as.

no joke...but it's fun for right now sweet yeah it is pretty sweet. I think I'm gonna head up to Tulsa for a meet with some folks up there, maybe check out the bars. Going to meet Mike?

I agree

you should be a hacker like me and hack the system. all the pron i can get on dish If I didn't live in an apartment, sure...I've got a 7' dish and mount left over from some amateur radio projects I tried sitting in my parent's basement, one of these days I'll put it to some use when I have the land to put it up...

But, something like the Klipsch Cornwall has a 15" mid, 18" passive radiator and doesn't need a sub for even really bass-heavy music. Little bit more effficient than a Dayton Reference though Off to go bitch at Comcast for my cable not working...

I think a 12" midbass is going to need some monstrous inductors in order to get the Xover point low enough for it...

I don't know if this is enough power, but it's not bad either way http://hometown.aol.com/phcatuan/833SE.html I want two

Class D amps are still entirely analog

Unless you tune somewhere in the infrasound range, I doubt it...

He's asking too much for this amp but it would be *perfect* for a pair of BIB's... http://cls.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?amp...&1199759664

Those aren't mine, that's at a friend's house in NC Hmmm.... Decware, Bottlehead, Wellborne Labs, Rotel, Parasound, Marantz, Antique Sound Labs, Transcendant Sound, Audio Research, Conrad Johnson, NAD, Cary Audio, Rogue Audio, Counterpoint, Sonic Frontiers, BAT, Classe, Forte, Krell, Hafler, B&K, Bryston, Outlaw Audio, etc, etc...

*that ended up on land

Were you in the one with the boat?

I know... I can't help it. I was into computers ALOT before the stereo bug bit me in high school... otherwise I'd probably be a full time computer geek now rather than an audio geek The last time I really kept up with the pace of computers, you were doing something if you had RAM chips with IC's on both sides I remember feeling bad when processors like the Pentium MMX were out in the 150-200MHz range...because my 75MHz tower wasn't top of the heap anymore. That's what I like about technology that's been obsolete for 20, 30, 40 years - nobody's coming out with a record that spins faster

Even with the forum discount, the stuff found on Ebay is a better deal...and if the consistency's close to what Ramos got for last weekend...it's the real deal.

The little black box with the analog meters in the center is an AudioSource Seven T-amp...to be honest I wasn't impressed at all. Just didn't sound...right, too harsh.

If you want a whizzerless, high efficiency solution, the Fostex Sigmas are the way to go, though with that Adcom you'll send them to the moon if you aren't careful.

Either would be fine.

I wasn't going to post pictures of mine, there's stuff like this out there:
