    i need to give up on eating spicy food. Of course, I am the guy that eats at the shady looking places in Mexico as well. I say fudge it I want the real deal. Doesn't mean I am stupid and eat lettuce and other water carrying raw things, but everything else you bet. Never gotten Montezuma's revenge from it either.

    The worst is: Killed, frozen, thawed, cooked, frozen, thawed, cooked, frozen, and then reheated. How is that good for meat? Fast food probably does the whole freeze thaw thing more often than that as well. We can get King Crab from a variety of places here. One of them is a special importer. That importer only gets crab that are cooked and then frozen right on the boat. Nothing to rot and it is never defrosted again. On average when you buy crab legs at a grocery store they have gone through more than 7 freezing/thawing cycles. The flavor/texture difference is insane. It is so much better I can't hardly eat crab that isn't from my guy anymore.

    Thanks for clarifying Scott, I definitely meant only for in car use. Different world when you can control your environment like you can in a house.

    Hell, in my favorite one here I cannot even read the damn menu. I know for a fact I ordered a tripe enchilada once and it was completely by accident but it still tasted good. To be fair, since I realized what it was I haven't ordered it again.

    yep, and I think that's exactly why Sean included it Definitely part of the reason. I can't believe that there aren't some little local burrito stands that aren't at least 10x better. Hell if we have another 8 options or so here in MN you guys surely have to. We are about as far from Mexico as you can get without going into Canada. There are the little Mexican places that look like they really are straight off a street in Tijuana, but for the sake of my digestive track, I usually avoid them. Nothing wrong with your water and they pretty much stew everything so it should be safer than some corporate pre-cooked and shipped meal that is dropped off in pseudo-refridgerated cars shipped around the country. I would feel much safer eating in a spot like that than in a standard fast food restaurant. Plus think of the other shit the big chains add to their food, it just isn't natural while I bet those stands are. I'd also guarantee the flavors are worlds better as well.

    One other note, running multiple drivers covering the same frequency range in particular for midrange is a bad idea. Don't even think about it.

    Holy crap, perhaps a bit less rambling and a bit more questioning would be good. Your comment on 8's previously doesn't make sense. Why would you do a 3 way with 8's playing to 2kHz. In my book 300hz is plenty high for midbass. You really need a driver that can really put up from 30hz to 300hz for a midbass. Why a 2" driver instead of a 3"? You wont' gain any high frequency extension and lose a ton of lower midrange. There really aren't any great performing 2" drivers that I have ever seen, unless you are referring to a dome and then it is really a big tweeter and also something I wouldn't consider ideal for a 3 way in a vehicle. The main goal is to get most of the audible spectrum to ocme out of a single driver. 5x7's are generically junk and will never do anything good for your system. A set of 5.25 components would have been 1000's of times better.
