    I'm not tired, just feel normal. My balls ache though.

    BL Question

    Usually because people read what Julian typed and think they can make a gain that they won't. There are some justified installations that way, but 99% of the time it is someone who thinks they know something that they actually don't understand.

    I'm already sick of relaxing. To be fair though, almost no pain. The 6hr window on the Vic just occured and I really feel pretty good.

    Amp Upgrade?

    Not where I'd spend my dough...depending of course on what else you plan. Overall budget and goals make a much better discussion than will this help.

    Still alive. Came back from anesthesia

    Never seen anyone complain of that in a fixed install and over the past month or so I've seen an awful lot of them. Guess I'll find out. Mine will never shut off though, just go to sleep

    Including albums from Japan & UK that weren't available here, but then again I can't guarantee all of those as I don't speak Japanese.

    ANd I shouldn't have said everything that was released. Just everything that was released before 1996.

    You did make me start playing some Jimi at home, so the net result was appreciated

    PWX 10 box

    Stop... Give suggestions for his pwx box. Instead of saying they are junk. Never said they were junk. If you know ANYTHING about audio then you know there is absolutely NO FUCKING way to give a suggestion that is worth a shit without parameters. What I have been strongly hinting at however is that he is going about an installation that will give him a ton of benefits. One that takes time, planning, and money to put together. Wasting that on ANY driver that isn't optimized for the install is stupid. As in really fucking stupid. It is also rather factual that most likely the PWX's are far from optimized for what he is doing. It would cost more money to pay someone to measure them or to buy the gear to measure himself than it would to replace them with something more appropriate for his needs and install. My recommendation is very clear in this regard. I like his goals and attempts to reach them. Makes sense almost completely except of course the current driver selection since they are completely unknown and come from a company that most definitely made compromises that will adversely affect their performance in his install. This is absolute audio 101. Can't get around that at all. Not quite sure why you'd find that confusing. Perhaps an analogy. Guy comes onto board. Has 1cuft of space and wants to design a box for an 18" sub. Should you "help him" design a box or point out perhaps that it won't work. This situation ends exactly the same of course with the caveat that potentially the driver wasn't designed as expected, but the possibility of that is VERY small.

    Yep

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Slightly random? I didn't watch it..due to the audio quality bs of youtube. And the fact that I have everything that was ever released that he recorded. Any particular reason that was a must watch?

    is there any concern with battery damage from heat? Well there is an issue with that, I've seen a few ipad installs most tablets will not turn on until they are cooled off from the heat of the car baking in the sun. Not sure if the Minnesota summers are that hot, but it could be an issue.Ipads are pieces of shit

    is there any concern with battery damage from heat? Have enough of a power supply that the battery will hardly be used. I live in MN by the way. The difficulty here would be cold killing the battery.

    I figured I need to make some quick release bullshit on a slide or something. That seems reasonable enough. Think I can get away without even doing any fiberglass work even Best part is I'll be able to sell the stock radio for way more than I'll have into the Tablet solution.

    ok, that was easy

    while I should never "have to" get at the back of the Nexus once mounted, I may want/need to. Trying to think of slick ways of making the panel "quick" release. Obviously compounded a bit by not having the car or knowing what it looks like yet.

    Yep, Craftsman shit is more or less disposable these days although most of the time good enough for me.

    PWX 10 box

    You can't but perhaps it is a good time to not buy another... My guess is that they are far from optimized as they made some compromises that I'd rather shop around. How did it blow?

    Only a problem on the 1/4" ones

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    WTF do you work on that takes 32's? I've got a couple 11/32 wrenches, but other than that not much. As I said, I don't need them but I have them so I need to store them somewhere. They are old. Like my grandpa old.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Ship to store. I "could" have had it shipped to the house originally too. Fuckers.
