  1. so i was searchin around on another forum i go to and i found where dayton just released a new driver. it is their reference series. well recently i had planned on buying a RL-p but i realized i couldnt afford it. so then i decided on an RL-i 10, but now for about $50 less i can get one of these daytona drivers. here is the link: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=295-464 i was just curious if i would be happy with one of these. i plan on gettin 1 10" whether i go with the dayton or the Rl-i and i will be giving it 400 watts. i mainly want SQ, i want to hit every note, hit it hard, and hit low, loudness isnt much of a factor. i would be perfectly happy with 120-130ish dB's. any help or advice is appreciated. thanks

    i swear i can never make up my mind...

    alright, i guess i will just go with my first instinct and go with the Rl-i. im 900% sure i will be happy with it. thanks for all the help. also i will be running the sub at 2 ohms since it is dual 4 ohms, is that ok? anything else i need to know? what is the best sealed size for that amount of power? i was gonna go with about .6 ft^3

    Test Tones

    this may be a dumb question, but at the top you have like 0 dB and -3 dB, what exactly does that mean?

    E-Mail question

    what im saying is, the only account that outlook is showing is our old dial up e-mail. it is not showing our new DSL account but our new DSL account still works. i am wanting to get rid of our old account but im afraid that if i delete it then our e-mail will not work since it is not showing our new account. would it be safe to delete the old account?
  12. ok today i am going all thru our computer just looking for stuff i can delete to free up some space and i just ran into the e-mail accounts. my parents recently got a divorce and after that my mom got DSL. well our new e-mail with our dsl server works just fine, it is thru outlook express. well i found our old e-mail account but our new account is not there. i would just delete it but our new account is not there so i dont want to screw anything up. what can i do? if i wasnt very clear just ask me to explain better. thanks
  13. not bad PS, all i had to do was short out the green wire with the black wire on the power connector.
  14. i am currently bored so i decided to do some stuff to my room. so i am just messing around and i decided i want accent lighting. i want to get some cathodes off oznium.com and somehow wire them up in my room to one switch if possible. i plan to hook up a rocker switch in my nightstand and wire all the cathodes up to that. i just need to know how i can power them. can i take a computer power supply and just lay that under my bed and run all the wires to that? thanks in advance for any replies
  15. ok well i got my cathodes in and i got greedy and put them in my car instead of my room, well, some of them. i still have 4 pair left.. anyways, i just happened to find a computer case, all it has is the power supply and i was gonna use this for my actual computer case but i thought temporarily i would hook the cathodes up to the PS. so i hook up the power cord to the PS and hook up the cathodes to the molex connectors and all that, should work. i flip the switch on the PS and nothing. do i have a bad PS? blown fuse? whats goin on? did i do sumthing wrong?
  16. no, i have already listened to every song on the soundtrack. none of em are the one im lookin for...i guess im just SOL
  17. someone else suggested that but i have yet to find it. i cant find it on cdnow.com or bearshare.
  18. alright. thanks for all the help. i should get the cathodes within a few days.
  19. ok thanks. i'll either get that first computer power supply or go to goodwill. what i thought about doing is taking out the switch on the power supply and extending the wires and just switch the power supply instead of the lights. that possible? also i ordered green and UV lights and i am wanting to mix the colors. can i cut off 1 green light and 1 UV light and switch them to the opposite color so you have a green and a UV connected to the same transformer?
  20. so could i use this and not need a motherboard or anything... http://www.allelectronics.com/cgi-bin/cate...-511&type=store or would i be better off with something like this... http://www.allelectronics.com/cgi-bin/cate...1534&type=store
  21. i will take your word that 34 Hz is about equal to sealed, that makes me feel a little bit better because i was afraid that if i tuned too low it wouldnt get too loud. i am running stock 6.5's and 3.5's up front and i have the rear 6x9's disconnected. the stock speakers sounds real good for stock, and i dont plan to upgrade for a while but hopefully someday i'll get some comp's.
  22. i have an audiobahn 4002T amp and i am gonna be getting some money from my scholarships that i didnt use for tuition. i dont have a whole lot of money and i am runnin stock battery and alternator so i cant go too many watts. i may get a new amp someday, but if i do it wont be over 600 watts. anyways, i have 400 watts bridged at 4 ohms and i am trying to figure out what sub i want. i know i want 1 12" and a ported box tuned to 30-32 Hz. i want pretty decent SQ, i want it to hit low, hit hard, and get loud. so basically LSQ. i am between the RE SX and the Rl-p but i just cant decide. since the SX is only dual 4 ohm, i can wire it to 2 ohms or 8 ohms. i am a little worried about this because i am used to 4 ohms. i am pretty sure my amp is 2 ohm stable but i've only had it at 4 ohms. any advice?
  23. i think i may have decided on the Rl-p but i am not for sure. how would the Rl-p in a ported box compared to an SX in a sealed box? i dont really know what i am looking for here because i havent had a lot of experience in car audio. I know that the lower tuning frequency you go, the better SQ, but i dont know what 28 Hz or 34 Hz sounds like so its tough for me to decide what i want. the only ported system i've heard is a friend of mine has 2 12" RF T1's in a big ported box, i dont know what it is tuned to though and neither does he. i listen to a variety of music from jay-z and three 6 mafia, to mushroomhead and hawthorne heights. i am just afraid that if i get a ported box custom built, that i will not like it because i dont know what to expect. any advice is appreciated.

  25. the computer is running soooo much better now. im pretty sure i got everything other than altnet and huntbar and those i dont know how to get deleted, i tried everything. i've got killbox and when i type in the key for those, a window pops up and says the file is nonexistent. i didnt try ewido, but i think i got the bulk of the problem, the only thing is those internet links dont work, but our printer works all the time and the computer is so much faster.
