If u share a budget I'd peak up a few prospects for you so you can get an idea

The reckhorn is awesome, wish I still had mine. In Germany right now....with more warning I could have brought one back

taxes are higher here. Fucking socialist bullshit.You can easily lose 50k here if you jump too soon the real estate market is not friendly'. An early purchase is an awful idea

yes. You should really live here at least a year before buying. Get ready to hate the prices too. Starter homes are in the 300 range

Other people can answer this better than I, but you'd probably be surprised how much $$$ they are spending on research to get these things to pass the emissions. There lies the problem. The emissions were better before the aggressive and shit EGR systems. And thus better before DEF. So you plan to reduce emissions by forcing everyone to add another tank, pump, hose, chamber in the exhaust, and fluid to add to the vehicle. Well how the fuck did you get the DEF to the trucks? In a package that had a carbon footprint and a truck hauled that DEF so there is more carbon footprints. You cannot tell me that the DEF system reduces more bad stuff than the process of making it, the systems in the truck that squirt it, and the transportation of the fluid itself and it's containers. God damn psychopaths. yep. Funk u obama

did u already offer? That is so close I would do it mattrer of factly 3 to 4 years

I am in Ze Duetchsland atm Dunno if the guy speaks English... Three low-balls would probably be too much If he's German he speaks English. I am "on base" here. Okay nowhere fucking near, but hey Sean, I owe you a big one if you can find 2-3 minutes to give him a ring and lowball him This is the ad: http://suchen.mobile.de/auto-inserat/mazda-mx-5-16v-mit-hardtop-hildesheim/182740653.html What would you consider a lowball?

Figures. Ignore everything you read or hear on Steve's forum. Whole thing is full of bullshit and marketing propaganda. Why do you feel the need to constantly be negative man? Look where he's posting... So I should pretend shit tastes good? What's your point? He is posting in the speakers/subs section and asked for guidance. Shared what confused him so we ought to clear that up. I really don't understand why this is confusing to you.

I like German beer. That might be all.

Not sure we understand your question. As for the enclosure volume, what about the WinISD plots is confusing? Beware if anyone answers on SMD as the last I looked no one who understands jack ever posts there. You are confusing to help. You cite frequencies that are not near reality, built a box that has a rather reasonable frequency response in car but claim otherwise, and ask loaded questions with essay like answers instead of defining what about what you have isn't working for you. It makes it very hard to help you. It is obvious to me you've been reading on lots of forums and are rightfully confused as you haven't understood that much of the info you have read is wrong. Then when you don't paint the full picture but instead fill in details that this info has taught you to share makes us all wonder what you are asking.

$2k isn't a small budget, you can do a ton with that. I've had a bunch of SHO's, including one that was doctored a shit ton. Super fun cars.

Am I way off?i don't understand where you got that idea from. how did you go about determining the other enclosure specs?I figured that you use the recommended enclosure size from what the manufacturer gives, and then you tune the box with the fs depending on whether it is higher or lower.NO. One single specification tells you NOTHING about a driver. There is a reason that Thiele & Small have a list of parameters. They ALL need to be accounted for to design a reasonable box. As for following the manufacturers recommendations that is generally the best idea if you don't intrinsically understand ALL of the parameters. Just don't go changing the tuning though either-follow the recommendations completely.

Figures. Ignore everything you read or hear on Steve's forum. Whole thing is full of bullshit and marketing propaganda.

You are ignoring the transfer function of your car, ie cabin gain. In situ measurements are required to understand that. Did you follow the manufacturers recommendation at all when you built your box?

Drank ze German beers last night. Oh how I miss them.

The biggest anti-Packer you know started who in both leagues? Eddie Lacy. 1 carry and BAM! Fuckin' nice.

Do yourself a favor and take a writing class too

You don't want pro audio but instead are choosing to do something that will sound worse? DO NOT read that as you can copy some asshat from FL's car with some shitty as PA drivers and craptastic crossovers and sound good...but at the same time, you can't really make 4 drivers playing the same frequency range sound good in a car either. Enough, probably, just happened to be on the wrong things.You have to understand, no one here is trying to be condescending. You just happened to have made a decision that would have been better served another way. The real question is how bad do you truly want to fix it. If not pretty bad, then you are probably better off carrying on with your original plan.

Eq's only make things worse unless you know what you need to fix with them. Once you know that it is easy to shop for one as well as you will know what you need.

Ha, I didn't hear boarding. For once I board withh the peons

No, fix the box first then listen to it.

If you reboost you will be overdriving. Going to need a serious proc that will get younin way over your head if you try to implement what you have. Just focus on fixing your box and then use your ears.
