yeah, that's what i thought too, lol!! iron block 5.3 flex fuel. it's teh new brown, can't remember what it's called. i like it, it's a truck. going to be watching the fuel mileage (by math, didn't get the trip computer thingy). i want to see if the active fuel managment is all it's cracked up to be, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i just bought a new truck. i think i'm excited, lol... traded the trailblazer in, so i have yet another sub/amp combo that i can't use. but at least i have a truck again. pics later, was already dark and the flash on the camera is broke. oh, it's a 08 silverado x-cab z-71 4x4.(gotta include that because now they make a z-71 2wd ) like i would own anything else, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

A pair of Icon 12's in a ported enclosure tuned around 32Hz would give you way more output and still have the control you are looking for. As long as you can fit the space. A pair of 10" Icons ported would probably get you close as well. Thank you for the help and recommendations. Someone told me that I dont have the amp to push two of them. I think I do. I think pushing around 700-750 rms a peice would be plenty. But do you think it would be too hard on my amp? a pair of ICON 10s ported (personally, i'd shot for 34-36hz, but i'm a bit of a basshead) off that 1500d will flat out kill waht you have now. it'll sound good, get loud and not strain neither sub, nor amp. (box dependant of course) wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

No. Loud is not the most important. I want good SQ but It has to be louder than what I had. My M-class are quieter than before and I want more. I dont have alot of space. I have about 16" deep by probably 42" ish wide by about 30 something tall. Thats my whole backseat, well, what was a back seat. My two 10's take up a little over half the width of my seat. I could fit sealed better though. I thought about maybe building a sealed box for my mclass and see the difference in sound. Amusing since personally I think the M-class drivers sound a bit like fart cannons and you are asking for something louder... m-class as fart cannons??? with a 200wrms rating?? fart cannon? lol, the m-class is their sq woofer. memphis lineup from entry to highend.. pr m-class s-class m1 m3 mojo teh s-class is their shallow mount, m1 is a cross breed between the pr,m-class and m3. but the one thing the m-class doesn't sound like is a fart cannon, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

jsut like your SQ comment there, it just depends upon what class. again, bass race 130-139.9 isn't all that hard. burping low-mid 50's isn't hard and will place you fairly high. grab a 60 and you're a god (in street) adn that's when it gets hard. but because SQ is subjective, that bug might not have won somewhere else, whereas a 155 on a TL is a 155. (within a few tenths usually, lol) wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

The P9 has a great EQ...Dave has not touched it in this install Time alignment, yes, but since you can always refer to the manual to learn how to do it I'd hardly think that's something "difficult". Very true, the enjoyment of SQ happens in the vehicle, not outside. I happen to think that's a good thing i won't argue that using the TA feature isn't difficult. on some decks, like my old alpine, it was rather easy to get to, and to adjust. i didn't because i didn't want to screw up what sound i had, lol. and i don't necessarly think sq costs more then spl. but true clarity is harder to achieve in car then loud. a vehicle sucks for proper staging. it's too short, too narrow and and the transfer function sucks. but for loud? it's perfect. find the transient frequency and boom away. i'm not taking anything away from teh 160+ plus crownd either. that's when it starts getting harder and even harder. but for loud, low to mid 50's, can be achieved far easier then building a similiarly competitve sq vehicle. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

lol, yeah... i'll try and get another one sometime this week, and get in on camera. hopefully the boss men didn't take them all out, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i like a good oatmeal stout, even a blonde ale ever now and then, but the ales tend to be a bit sweet to me. it's getting mainstreme, but sam adams boston lager is a good beer. and i won't hardly drink bud, bud light or anything like that now. oh, i did get a $.25 miller light last tuesday, lol. out of the soda machine at work. they are under the "out of order" button, lol... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

That's a total myth Getting to the pinnacle of either requires a lot of time, a lot of testing, and knowledge of the black arts that go into it. And the Camry shows that you can come across something that does pretty well for SQ, just by playing around with things Likewise, there are people that have gotten some pretty good results in the SPL lanes just by trying something right off the bat. [ see, i don't think it's a total myth. i can throw jsut about any system together now and get into a 150. people are breaking 50's all day. which used to be the pinnicle. now they are pushing 180, and there is more then one person knocking on that door. now, getting into that league is a bit rough and goes right along with what you are saying, HOWEVER, a 150 is easy. adn a 150 is LOUD, no matter who you are. and even LB breaks a 150, so it can't be that hard. see what i'm getting at? but to truly sound good, really good, takes work. time. eq this. attenuate that. raise this. shift that. i've never even messed with any of the time alignment crap on any of my decks, lol. i have a eqs, never used it. wouldn't know how to process sound if it bit me in the ass, lol. to most people, it's far easier to get loud, which gets you noticed, then it is to sound good. and i think the getting noticed part is what most boomers are after anyway. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

was a sexy lil vid mr. mark! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-
but it's what i do. for work, lol. it's the start of a set of simple channel letters. these will be LED lit, on a raceway with a different font set of letters that are neon lit. i'll add pics as the process moves along. supposed to be done tomorrow, lmao. yeah. that's going to happen!! these are cell phone pics, so don't judge too hastly..lol anyway... how it all starts. a pattern, a piece of .090 aluminum for backing, and 5" wide strips of .063 alum for returns (or the sides) look closely, that red line? it's the carbon paper tracing i did of the pattern onto the alum. a few bends gets you this a few more bends gets you that..... to be continued. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Just a tip, its myLSQ, not myLSQ, LSQ is a database coding language. ok, it's my SQL, (i'm no programmer). however,denim has changed something in the forum to make SQL appear as LSQ. as it's more fitting to audio, and more accurate. but if mySQL is coding language, then maybe that's what is causing the issues? the automatic changing for regular members of SQL to LSQ. and shizzon probably got it right bose, lol. the forum changed it on him. btw, LSQ = loud sound quality wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

with a really big hammer? i wish i could remember, but it's been awhile. i'd need one in front of me. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-
I kind of saw it coming... I wanted to see how it was going to end in a bad wreck?? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-
damnit, lol. where the hell is aaron?? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-
i wish, lol $45k is just a bit outa the price range at the moment, lol. though we are looking at a new 08 xcab silverado 4x4. i really miss my truck, lol.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-

-
rampage jackson has one. TUF showed him driving off in it in the last episode. tis a sweet ride!!! and yeah, i think you deserve one. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

the fact is, IMO, lol, that sq is so subjective and spl is definitive, that spl is here to stay and will continue to flourish. and let's not forget, it's way easier to get loud, then to sound really good. and that's the american way. and with some many new products, the internet and god knows how many tutorials, it's far less expensive to get loud as well. a couple runs of wire, a couple of batteries, an alternator, a big box, a huge amp and massive subs....lol. and with today's music seemingly concentrating on the lows, why build for anything else? besides, it's way too cool to piss everyone off with the knock then it is to impress them with the clarity, right? ask LB, lol.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

awwwww.....hpos and a 1000d?? pure old school memphis sex there brother!! probably the best under seat setup i ever did in my silverado was that exact setup. save for the ICON and memphis belle!! welcome to ssa!! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-
truck? lol, the truck gave it's life for a mini cooper. unless you meant the trailblazer. in that cse, it might be forgoing living with us for a new silverado to move in, lol. i really, really, really miss my truck. and some stupid old man owns it now and drives it at 35mph everywhere!! left the flame grille in and everything, and it don't even see dirt/mud anymore! oh well. gotta move on, lol. and thanks wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

tom, you get the cookie for the Y. it is indeed the sharp junction that makes the Y a Y. <-- heh, spells yay. jim, i'll give you half a e-cookie. it is an hitachi router, not a festool. but since you mentioned it, you win! can you spot the ghost? (i just saw it myself) wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
