Don't worry about it, the suspension will break in from normal use. Nothing special you need to do.

A loose connection would add resistance, leading to heat buildup...make sure all the connections are solid.

Pictures are all well and good...but how does it sound

Why just not turn the front stage off with bass music? Are you truly missing anything? I'd recommend a set of horns...and forget the rear fill.

what* If you could find some, a used pair of Kicker RMB8's would be a good choice, along with Adire Extremii, or Peerless midbasses...

Ramos had my kind of amps back when they were new...

If you're willing to stretch your budget by $50, Jake's got a nice sale on some Sundown SAZ-1500D's.

Nope, don't have an account there.

Every time I hang out with Dave and Ramos it's an education on late '80s/early '90s rap Still waiting to hear "My Hooptie" on an SQ demo disc...

Maybe I'm just shallow-minded, but wtf does a video tell you about buying a sub? It moves a lot...wow...

The idea of setting your stuff up properly is so you won't damage anything...why it's important to understand the balance between the head unit's preout voltage and the input gain on the amp, and how that affects what comes out the other side

Could always add bracing perpendicular to the sides of the box...would work fine.

The record player's in the main setup

Alpine 7893 Boston FX6 coaxials Avionixx 800.2 eD e12a.22 (only part to have not changed to today )

Oh, don't think I have anything that short...got a bunch of stainless phillips screws laying around, always end up buying way more than I need.

How long do you need them?

If the Z1's don't explode on you first...

Is the front stage in?

I haven't seen the finished product yet, the last time I saw everything you were still prepping them for paint. Dave doesn't know it yet but he's helping me move my speakers in once they're built

Not always. For example, the upper end Hifonics lines are vastly different than their lower end lines.

The Promitheus?

On the other end, PG ARx series cables have probably the worst ends I've ever seen...tiny crimped joints, barely any solder, pitiful strain reliefs.

WBT Topline ends are $50 each. Eichmanns are close to that. No thank you. Really makes Knukonceptz affordable, considering the quality of their ends

One problem with hardwood that I see is that it's got some issue that ply or MDF doesn't have...voids and such.People have beaten you to the punch though, do a search for Fostex on Audigon and you'll see what I mean I'm not a big cable nut either, but I'm all for excuses to try new products...and figure the home audio section here could use some more exposure.

I still have a pair of 1cF sealed cabinets that I have sitting around, once the Fostex project gets completed I think I'll start looking for drivers to stick in them...
