Damnit, making me want the 70-200 2.8 again myself. WHY am I so cheap.
-
Is the .95cuft sealed for EACH 10 or total? I've seen up to 3cuft under that seat although you need to lift it then. I had an 02 and a ported 12" Gcon would have surely fit under my seat if the box builder were a bit clever. That box may up the ante pricewise on what you are looking at significantly though...

So happy the site works again!

Maybe I suck at all this though and should be ignored. Exercise and Sean aren't really coincident.
-
Perhaps that is my disease I am compensating for though. If I know how far and how long I ONLY focus on improving that. And the bummer is only in the short term, ie the day I am doing it. To combat that I am doing something similar and just riding my bike 30-45min 3x a week at lunch time. Goal is to get to lunch and sweat a ton doing it. One of the three days I will interval the whole time, one rip as fast as I can, and the other get there expeditiously. Figure if I can muster 3 days a week of doing something the rest will come.

Okay, that was mean. Either way, IMO you shouldn't connect distance to time atm, instead just go try and run for 45min. Fuck the distance. Point is to get out and do something.

If it makes you feel better, my 59yr old colleague ran the Boston Marathon in 3:01 this week.

Can only one speaker be out of phase, and the other be in phase?
///M5 replied to Florida_Audio's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
There is one wire with two conductors going into your door (and therefore into the crossover). You need 2 wires with 2 conductors going into your door (and therefore need to pull one more wire with 2 conductors). Don't completely blame the installers, they were doing I am sure what they thought you and everyone else wants. -

Problem isn't the gains... Time to move the crossovers? Need to find out where you can tap into the wires that go into the door and then move them there. Will require pulling another 2 wires into each door. ANY driver can have the phase flipped. Just reverse the +/- and it will be 180deg different. -
All fixed!!

At his TOD I was discussing the listening room in his house with the guy who designed it. WTF.

That was one helluva flu

Now if there is a way to take out the RSS feeds from the "Unread Content" button it would finally be fully functional!

And I come back later and still logged in!! No error on the top either. Nice.

The bummer with the in door installation is now you need to go in there and unplug the mids to listen to just the tweeters. Curious if the sibilance follows them or the mid. Then you need to start swapping phase in every combination. First just the tweeters playing alone, then the mids alone, then all together in ALL combinations. I'd adjust everything to flat first.... I'd seriously contemplate removing the crossovers from the doors and putting them where you can reach them. Serious pain in the ass to swap things back and forth a ton and put the door back on. You CANNOT do these tests with the door open, you need the whole car as it will be as you drive. -
I think it may have. It accepted my login with one try!!

It is preferable to use a single one. I like my mids to dig deep and run the HPF as LOW as possible without causing them stress. What do you mean by sibilance? Please don't post the definition as that I am not asking, but am wondering what you are hearing. Yanking 6dB on the crossover and another 6+dB on the eq is monstrous....can't be right. I wanted to see the crossovers for a reason. You need to change the phase for 1 driver at a time. Did the idiots who did the install put the crossovers in the door? If so, they should be shot... -
Yep, although for the first time in a week I could actually get to the forum on my phone. Took 10 refreshes, but finally worked. Uber annoying for sure.

Odd as in done without thought. "oh look, normal, let's pick that!" HPF at least at 40Hz if you are always cranking the piss out of it and you hear a problem on the low end raise it more. Safest to start higher, but you already did lower (ie off) so no real reason to. Where are the crossovers? How about the eq/fader/bal on the h/u? -

One of my neighbors commutes on one, let me take it for a rip. Makes me want to build up a second set of wheels with an electric motor in them. I could hold 30mph on it all day pucking long.

I drove a Specialized Turbo S today. Holy shit is that a hoot.

Hop being idle for 7 hours?? Boo.

What about your headunit? Pictures aren't necessary, but knowing the settings are. Odd gain setting at "normal" and personally even without a sub I would have the mids on a HPF...bummer it doesn't go below 40Hz though so it may cut too much bass. Depends on how well they are installed in the doors. -

It is always a good idea. There should be zero voltage at the speaker terminals with the amp off. Measure first if you don't pull the neg terminal
