i wanted to get the Girls 6.5's installed so we would have more than 1 channel to listen to when we go to gainsville. I am so music deprived right now

for 30min untill i get off work Boo for rain.

I like that suggestion. Unless you are going for the bling bling factor.

He could also piss off old ones...and end up dead Solo X's arent the only thing locked up. 2 TV's, some Comp 10's, and 22" rims for his truck.

I am prety much with the whole horn idea but either way, Im helping

That would leave some cash over to help with the enclosure too. After i sell the e12a and BX1205D as well. Ive got it for 150 + shipping on CA but i might strike up a different price for the nice people on SSA.

Im thinking about an Atomic AP150D Dual 1.4 coils to get a 0.7 nominal load. Tad more power from the amp. i can get it for $255 shipped from atomic.

Heh, its his friends garadge. But im with you on the locksmith.

He was telling me about it. It was some local competition. The winner got a head unit, amps, componets, and two subs of any kind theshop carried. There for a while some kid was winning with 151. No one could beat him. The owner of the shop called him up and asked him to come down so he didnt have to give out all of this crap. He rolled in and as soon as the kicker rep that was there saw his truck he turned to the guy that was winning and said "you just lost." No lie, i felt the bass in my chest inside of the house when he drove by and parked.

yes, 144 Solo X's Why, i have no idea...but he says he has them and i beleive him. You should see his daily truck. 10 Comp VR's and 10kw from custom amplifiers. Externally regulated alternator so he runs 17v in competition. Just did a 162.X in miami on audiocontroll.

Got any ideas of good 15" SPL driver? IA still has no soft parts for me. Ive got like $350 to spend. I was thinking a pair of L7 12's My GF's uncle has 144 SoloX 12's in a garradge that he doesnt have the key to, and the guy that has the key just went to jail.

one sec and ill draw you a diagram

Passive crossovers take the full signal (ie after amplifier) and split it into two or three chanels with the cross over slopes. An example of a passive Xover would be the little boxes that come with almost every componet set. Active crossovers take the RCA level signal, split it into 2 or 3 seperate chanels and then modify each chanel with your desired crossover slopes and points. Passive is great on a budget for one speaker and one tweeter and dont need steep slopes (like 24db/octave). However passive crosovers will drop voltage huring the final power output to the drivers, they also limit power capasity. Active crossovers are generally fully adjustable meaning you can fine tune the crossover toyour particular setup. It also allows you to use seperate amps for each frequincy band and usually has steeper slopes for greater signal seperation. A passive crossover for that many drivers would be a female dog to design and achieve a desired impeadance for the amplifier. It would also have to be 1st order butterworth for simplicity so you wont get a very steep Xover frequincy. The componets to build it would likely cost you as much as a decent active crossover (~$100 would be my estimate). On top of that you then need to SOLDER the female dog. You also have to set it up so that it doesnt introduce any noice into the singnal (inductors + signal = bad). I'd imagine the circut would take up a good 1'x1' square of bread board and you would have to use massive (and probably multiple) resistors to handle the power going through them. In the end active is the way to go. Active + a good powerful 2chanel amp for the midbasses and a good powerful 4chanel amp for the speakers and tweeters would be the route i personally would choose if i where doing what you are doing.

I ' M A W H O R E I may still try the backflip thing BTW I hope the lawsuit doesn't stop the project from moving forward.

So is spelling, and checking over your finger's handy-work..........but hey we all can't be master carb. tuners. J <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Show me a spelling error in the above quote and I will try a backflip, on video, without a trampoline.

"attention: hold my "

well there you go. 4 MJ-18's: $250 New Enclosure: $100 Drywall spacking (5gal bucket): $50 Wife scared chitless: Priceless

Next Step: Think 4 MJ 18's wired to 2ohm with a 1000w amp oh and put the wife on a ladder right below hte opening and play some tones. In home hair trick

He still needs ass loads of midbass. Horns still seem like the way to go. Super efficent > super quantity.

M5, you should get togather with some of the other big time SQ guys here and do a write up on the basics of tuning a soundstage.

lawl... off to eGay to find an XM-6
