    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Ha, I've spent some time in FL in January. Ladies in fur coats while I swim in the ocean. It's funny.

    NO Eggy. 8's for midrange are useless since he is running horns. Even worse. As long as you pick the 10's appropriately they will EASILY blend with the horns. Do not mix the horns, morel's and 8's it will absolutely suck and be impossible for you to tune. Every car you've seen done like that is owned by an audio moron. Every forum you've been to that proposes that solution is full of people who don't know anything about audio. Of course if it is just bling you are after carry on. If it is sound, then you need to rethink everything you think you've ever known.

    Just afraid that grabbing and ungrabbing will piss me off.

    At 40mph (normal trail speed) when it is -5F the windchill is -60F. Only big day on the sled so far this year was at -5F. You've seen my bars, my hands are exposed. Got a little chilly but I'm buying some bigger windscreens for them today!

    Don't get me wrong. -10F or more sucks to be outside in...although i have clothes that can more than deal with it.

    15F or -10F you need to dress the same. 15F might even be harder on you than us. Our 20F feels warmer than SoCal's 40F. Moisture makes a HUGE difference in the bone chilling nature of cold.

    If we had snow I'd fatten up the jets and go for a rip. Only bad part would be yanking the carbs to swap jets in the garage. Of course it's now up to -8F so I wouldn't have to.

    Suggest a loud 10" sub for a sealed box

    You don't have room for anything but shallows. 8" - 1.5" for wood - .75" for pole vent - 3" for excursion = 2.75". That doesn't account for the diagonal which makes it worse. You REALLY need measurements before even thinking of shopping. Will completely get you excited about all the wrong drivers otherwise. I also find it super funny that you were contemplating 8's but don't want to run shallows.

    My post got lost in the server update. OP you should be looking at sealed 12's not 10's. And Roland, for what you want 8's are absolutely stupid. Box ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS needs to be understood first and then drivers chosen for it. Just like the OP, asking for advice without a box size is not going to net you a logical answer. Anyone who answers without knowing isn't really helping you either.

    That's almost as bad and idiotic as using bullet tweets. Yay FL! Represent yo. The horns you are looking at will seriously smoke your previous idea for a setup in a very big and positive way.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    why? Why not? I enjoy chewing my food, not drink or sipping it. Now I don't mind stews or good old chicken noodle soup. Ah, so you don't like vegetables. I hate stews.

    Wife is sore as hell. Rear ended yesterday. Hard enough to push her 8' forward into the trailer hitch of the truck in front of her. CRV that hit her is WAY totalled and a 2012. The XC90 looks pretty good actually. Rear bumper cover, rear lower hatch are shot. Small hole in the front plastic from the hitch. Only thing that isn't so great is that the fuel door won't close now. Tells me the whole quarter may be tweaked. I assume that would total it out. Figures since we bought tires 2 weeks ago.

    Great with champagne Matt if you didn't drown it all in OJ this am

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    No, because a simmer isn't a boil. Simmer is a single small bubble every few seconds. BTW, it's great with champagne....but beware of too much garlic if you add to it. Carrots are somewhat like potatoes they tend to soak up the liquid and then when you puree them you get a velvety smooth feel. Nice stock helps this of course. I don't normally use a ubery chicken stock that I've built with a ton of veggies and other items but more of a standard can like consistency stock but of course with the collagen influence of the bones in homemade.
