More likely in your neck of the woods obviously

That many courses force a simplification. Plus can you find a good green papaya in MN in Dec? If so, where??

Nothing fancy this year, just soul food

Trivial as in easy to do. If the autosense leaves it on all the time you will want to use a remote wire. Remote wire here is the jargon used for the wire to "remotely" turn on your amplifiers.

The Dayton's are a poor mans W18...but with more usability. Tweeters have balls too.

Thanks for looking but I am way to cheap for that Have to wait a year for the next model and then I will step up.

A bit of extra hardener and it still works....but I wouldn't want to either. Sort of like when I had to yank the motor out of my sled since the damn carb floats leaked and filled the crankcase with gas. -25F and it was so gassy in the garage it had to be open. That sucked.

nice gear. Don't jump off the edge, we'll figure it out!

btw

Looks like she gets stuck No need to lurk too hard, just ask. If you base your questions stating your needs instead of this hardware vs that hardware everything is much easier to help you with. Lots of things to think about before "shopping".

Really hard to get better midbass than from an SLS. Indeed harder to get the blending. A 3" full ranger in a ported enclosure can easily reach 80Hz, but that requires a few liters of air space. If you are truly stifled up top (which is a reality in most cars) and want perfect blending then Ryan is dead nuts on as it will be easier with a driver that plays higher. That being said, my GM doors were nearly overwhelmed by the CA18 7" mid from a midbass perspective...but I could have tried harder to resolve that.

More enclosure volume is your friend then. If you are limited, I'd measure and then model the drivers in your enclosure space and possibly use that to pick the one that digs the best. If you can't get a larger volume of space or enough you could aperiodically vent them into the car, but this will also reduce power handling on the lower frequencies.

How were your 3's mounted up above? I assume you mean they lacked the cohones necessary to dig to 250?

Yikes, got a ride in a neighbors truck yesterday and he had wireless Android Auto, made me shop for headunits. The Pioneer w8400nex has network mode and wireless AA. If anyone ever see's them go reasonably somewhere I am all in. Will have a Kenwood to part with then.

I like those, but these are more my speed

Awesome. They'd just be in a box here. Dying to know what you will end up choosing.

Didn't say the Volvo had issues, just said the X3 was better....albeit fairly significantly.

I have a dream to never own a new car.

Where/how/why do you have access to finding that fast

The only headaches are taken care of. Considering the car is a toaster otherwise and I can't find other horror stories I thought maybe I am in the clear. Worst case if something shitty happens I am only back to where I am now but of course even more anti BMW which is sad considering I've owned more than 20 of them.

And I HATE run flats.
