    Welcome to the IHoP

    Just made some zucchini bread, homemade biscuits and country gravy with homemade sausage. I am feeling a bit bloated, but very satisfied. 10min to macchiato.

    oh plz do. I have some friends at best buy but I hate to ask them to give me a discount. Neon, I know how to make CAT5, so I'm curious as to how you make an RCA cable? Knowing how these things go it won't be that fast, but maybe I can work out something for the SSA store. Be great if they would private label I am sure that won't happen though.

    The Klarity is fine though, but I do like the Karma since you can get a 4 conductor. Less cables the better in my book.

    Curious if my neighbor can hook us up since he is the Monster rep. I will have to ask.

    Just had a revelation, how about in a gallery here. Then I know my thread will stay ok. I keep meaning to add a tuning section to it, maybe I will re-write it and do that.

    Ok, net noob. Is there a good way to upload a lot of pictures at once to somewhere? When I tried on imageshack it sort of shit on me. I need to restore my budget install or recreate it, but putfile crapped my pics out. Just found them on my 3rd and never used external drive I thought I had lost them though.

    No seat makes it easier, but the same box in a different rig and it would be louder.

    ?? damping and transmission loss in the same measurement setup? I'm not sure whether we want clamped edges... Not sure what the sound power measurement would be used for... but it would be cool, lol. You have access to an intensity probe? The book i've been looking into suggests merely hanging the sheet metal by a string that is 'long enough' to not damp the sheet any and not allow vibrations to travel up it to the support. Of course, hanging it by a string would require drilling a hole in the panel.What magnitude of differences in sheet metal are you talking about? Will it really be of that much difference to affect the measurements? Sound power would measure the acoustical transfer or transmission loss. It would be possible to see if one is better at isolating outdoor/inside vehicle acoustics. Not a measure of damping at all, but interesting nonetheless. It might make you choose a different type for wheel wells and such. I own an SI probe, but the mics are a bit out of calibration and currently have no way of verifying the phase between them without building a jig. I have some "friends" I could probably borrow one from though. Not sure what book your reading and am curious. I have tried that actual test, but instead of string we used a bungee like material (which is much better) and did the test that way. The problem is getting the excitation down for the bare metal as it is pretty lively and makes it really tough to do a baseline. As for the sheet metal, in the fixture above (suspended free-free) it should be fine. Clamped or held differently which really helps in applying a fixed force to it could vary it a lot. I know of some other jigs, but can't copy them or talk about them due to non-disclosures.

    That won't be a free-free condition which is necessary.

    Definitely. In a house it matters if you are near or far from a wall, in a car it will be a little bit of a guess unless you measure it in situ but an educated guess is better than a random enclosure.

    I work 7:30-3:30... ftw I also have to take public transit (skytrain/bus) No car just yet, aint got any monies I wake up at 7... get to work at 7:30... and I live at the opposite side of the city lol My commute is real fast at least when I am not travelling.

    Unless it was a SHO it we know it wasn't there were no manuals available in tore-asses.

    I hear the Audi. Betcha it takes her longer to change than me to shower & shave as well as get dressed.

    Sup fellas!

    What kind of vehicle? I assume since you have gone as far as you did that the inner door access you closed up as well? I have some Tool that I haven't listened to in my truck but will. Any tracks in particular that wreak havoc on them? At the moment I really feel that something is wrong. They are the CA18RNX that you have? Your setup sounds a lot like mine, I have an Rlp and a bit more headroom.

    RL-i 8...Magnet? VC?

    I have a .6 tuned to 30hz, if you think 35hz is long trying lowering it to range where it sounds great. Super long. Sounds to me like you are a bit short on space for your plans.
