Teehee....yeah, I was hoping my inquiring would turn into a delightful conversation about the technology and it's advantages/disadvantages, and about SS having the first production driver to use it.....but the damn guy wouldn't stop simply trying to sell me last years models, so we never even actually talked about the new Eclipse subs (other than "he can order them if I want them....but I could get the older models that're in inventory for 'cheap'". Oh well....such is life at the local dealer Makes me wish we had more than 1 local Eclipse dealer...LOL now i'm definitely going to the eclipse dealer monday..lol.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

part of the reason the imp is on pause..lol.. some of the highlites... 2x memphis st1500d 1x memphis st3004 1x audiocontrol epicenter 3x optima yellow tops 4x various screens (2 headrest, 1 in dash and 1 drop down) 2x iraggi alternators 2x memphis 15" mojo's (will be LVS's soon) and some pics.... the 3004, epiccenter and two optimas are in between the seat and box..the truck was still in pieces so i couldn't snag those pics... also, it has apline componets thruout, they came from a previous install. teh alternators are 1 gm delco and 1 ford..lol....neither fit, had to fab brackets thru out....but hey they work!! (iraggi provided the brackets to mount the ford off the factory location, but no instructions...or even how to wire the sumbeytoch) it slams.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

well, i've always like the mobile es stuff... and except for the skipping, loved my sony deck... HOWEVER.... i will never, ever like a (non mobile es) sony amp, speaker or sub on the market today. even though i install quite a few of them.i'll never buy them. sony h/u's though....i'll back them up just about everyday...lol.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

ryan...i need a 5spd tranny!! any hookups? it's for the stang.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

vladd, i'll have a price this evening.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

hey.. steve that sucks. yesterday, my silverado was hit by a customer as they were leaving the shop. pointed my bumper to the sky. and drove off. luckly, scott (the shop owner), saw them do it and called them right afterwards. the guy is supposed to come drop me a few bucks to make up for it...i doubt that. but anyway, i just pryed up on the bumper..looks almost new..lol. of course i've gotz a bit of 300m burgandy paint on me chrome now..lol.... and i gotz to go to work..lol wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

cb..the car will get brown breaded..lol...the brand the shop carries... m5...don't i know it..lol... thanks for the comments so far... here's a few pics of a trial fit and a shot of the ports thru the 6x9 holes.... more later as i continue working on it whilest not working on something else...lol.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

why? Sony puts spyware on their audio CD's (and tried to lie about it); even if you say no, it still load's itself deep into Windows. The fix opens up you computer for attacks. Now, I never was a big fan of Sony anyway, but there's sure as hell nothing great about Sony ever since they released the Xplode series... I'll stick with a factory radio (with a L.O.C. and line driver) before I would use a Sony Xplode radio... lol... ok, well, at least u have a reason. but the upper level sony's...starting with the 605x, are definitely worth a look. i'm seriously looking at the 805...BUT the 2006 clarion 755 is a sweet looking lil bastage too! not too mention i get a deal on either one..lol.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

ask dave_edwards..... or get it to the shop u bought it from. there is a place that people here recommend for that but i don't recall the name....maybeask tirefryr, he's made mention of them. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

yep..port that sucker!!! a 12" rl-p in about 2ft^3 tuned to 34hz (or ask denim how one sounds in 28hz) off 600wrms will get silly loud and sound awesome doing it!! if that doesn't rattle ur brains, get the 15. basiclly the same size sealed box as a ported 12".. btw..the 2 id's will need roughly twice the box that u have now....so if space is an issue.... same with the 3 AA 10's... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

One thing to remember.....anybody who uses XBL^2 likely has a NDA (non-disclosure agreement) with Adire and/or their buildhouse, and the company using it is not required to disclose/advertise their useage of XBL^2 if they do not want to. Which means.....there may be far more XBL^2 drivers on the market than you know about, simply because 1) Dan/Adire/the buildhouse cannot disclose who and what companies are using the technology, and 2) the company using the technology isn't promoting/advertising their useage of the technology. Dan has made mention many times in the past that there are far more XBL^2 drivers out on the market (car audio and home audio) than we realize. well, that's what i was missing...lol.. but still yet, IMO, xbl^2 isn't all that's it's cracked up to be. on paper, maybe. but in real world, with real ears, it's not all that. i'm not trying to say any other topology is better, but IME, there are other very well built subs that can compete. like the man ramos has said...85% install, 10% equipment and 5% beer. the wrong install and xbl^2 falls flat just like everything else. but then again, what do i know??? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

look for james herron and the rest of team sweep. james just painted hi sexplorer..blue over silver with orange thru the middle...u won't miss it. he's in street a..kevin is in street c...greg, i can't remember, but his explorer is on 22's. anyway, call james saggy and thank him for taking the shop's big crimpers..lol....tell him kent said wassup. and good luck man!! who knows, maybe everyone is down a little (saving it for WF). wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i signed up for the mouse and the auger bit...lol.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

pics of 71 imp install vladd...the sony cdx805x ( i believe is the model number) is the one u want...u have a 7 band eq PER speaker. not to mention TA, DSO and some other technical goodie for sq. i can get ya a price if ya want. i'm thinking about puitting one in the silverado. and i gotz to go to work... ryan...i need a 5spd tranny for my bro's stang.....got any hookups? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

nah..lol.. just been busy as hell at work...lots of custom crap. literally. guys who want glory, but don't want to spend the money for it. like the el camino i finished yesterday..yay..all sony.except the h/u, that was kenwood. though in all honesty, it didn't sound bad, but didn't get loud at all..even tuned to 40hz (pair of the red 10's, each in it's own 1ft^3 box, 3" round port)..pics? hell no..lol... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i think a lot of us are waiting to find suitable plans to build such an enclosure I've got plans for a pair of 8's in a tline modeled after my ADS 3 series. They have a higher fs so the plans wouldn't work. I'd draw up some plans for a single RLP 8 if ya all want, prob something like the photos I posted already. I like the driver to fire out of the same side as the port. But as far as getting it underneath a seat with lots of curves and stuff that will be really hard to plan in advance. I think a fiberglass TL under a seat would be super sick. I've seen plans for 8 8's in a tl that fits into an extended cab truck! that would be sweet. hook me up with the plans, please!! i'm extremely anxious to get this done...be it FG or mdf...i just need plans..lol... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
