    Bandpass box? whats your opinion on them.

    Yes. 99.99% of Bandpass boxes are utilized for ALL the wrong reasons. The Type R is a poop cannon compared to the w6.

    And it seems that is the only play he'll ever be remembered for. Sure as fuck can't catch.

    Funny thing is it isn't the run around. Unrealistic goals cannot be met without compromise, not mine to pick.

    As with ANY part of the stereo the installation locations, budget, and goals determine what is purchased.

    Yep the big key is to change habits, everything becomes natural fast. Crap food draws itself to you though SUPER easily. Sort of like cigarettes, just have to completely stop. If it has a drive through DON'T go.

    Not fuel to the fire, just shows you what research shows.

    3.5 and 1.5 We promised one piece today on the way home. Before he gets home I am going to sort out the stuff I don't want him to have. One house gave out bags of poofed popcorn. He did eat that last night. All jokes aside, since your kids eat like you do, what have you done to make it so you didn't eat so much 'shitty' food? I ask because I keep finding myself going for crap frood for little to no reason besides convenience.........Any suggestions? Also, I will be making Sauce and maybe Cheesecake Sunday. Anyone find themselves in South Arizona feel free to come by. J I taught myself how to cook.

    Second Skin vs Sound Deadener Showdown

    Yikes. Absolutely not based in any scientific facts whatsoever. In fact, the whole point of CLD is to reduce panel noise. Implying that it then changes the output of your subs while possible, it isn't a guarantee.

    Considering 80% of the world is Asian that number seems low...

    It isn't about getting what you pay for and much of your cost will be integration and installation. The mid portion are difficult. Playing 80Hz at 140+dB isn't easy from a small diameter driver in particular if it isn't in an enclosure.

    If it doesn't have fat, I don't want it. *I know you weren't serious

    They have my eating habits, but of course I am the one that cooks. We eat a bunch of fat and almost no sugar.

    We have a ton of soda around. All happens to be unflavored and made at home. H20 & CO2 is it. I'm drinking some right now. Personally I consume probably 6L+ a day.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    That's no problem. He ate ZERO yesterday and will get 2-3 choice pieces and the rest will be back to normal food. You are so unamerican. Not letting your kid eat whatever/whenever and get fat, psssh. My boys are so skinny they either have "fall down pants" or highwaters. Aidan can easily squeeze into 2 year pants, but they are really short.

    Sub power handling questions...

    Fundamentally there are only two ways to damage a sub playing music through them. 1) Thermal overload: exceed the heat dissipating capability of the coil assembly 2) Mechanical: send a signal to the sub that causes it to move too far causing mechanical damage As for an efficient enclosure, amusingly I haven't heard that term being used like you imply; however, you can increase the output of a driver in a small section of the frequency range by tuning the enclosure to have more response there. Of course you lose elsewhere when you do this. Perhaps you were referring to EBP (Efficiency Bandwidth Product) which is a number that is calculated from sub parameters to help determine if it is better suited to a ported or sealed alignment.

    "keep up" and what your perception of "good enough" sound are the limiting factors. You've picked speakers so far that have NO midbass, NO upper midrange, and a top end that is brutally hot and needs taming. A little note on "keeping" up. In general it takes more budget for the front stage than the sub to achieve the same levels. Once you start limiting things out it severely hurts the response. A function of 6x the budget means you are going to have a lot of compromises. This means you can choose loud or sounds good, not both.
