    That doesn't always tell the story....but it sure can.

    Don't make me want a truck damnit. Lucky there isnt enough suspension love to make them city vehicles...
  4. Would have helped to know what you were contemplating for needing the crossovers. Had I known I would have said neither. Many other better options for a 3 way front stage.

    Cant decide... Advice needed!

    Is the Envoy still NA? As long as that alt does what it is supposed to you'll be fine....although I am having a hard time understanding how/why you are going to have 1kW on your front stage. 7.5 cuft out to fill the hole in your trunk area nicely. It will also be fine for a pair of Xcon 15's. In that size box you'll get more out of the 15's than the 12's although upping the size a bit wouldn't hurt either. The C'do will be fine powering the subs. "upgrading" further won't really yield you an audible difference in the box you describe.

    Sundown SA-8 T/S Specs

    I measure the whole surround and then subtract 2/3 of it.

    Guess What's Inside The Box

    That's good, they are a huge waste of money. Of course that should be obvious by the case, rofl.

    Matt you are dehydrated. Probably more than the booze to conquer. Considering you referenced sinuses it hints at the same. Guzzle a gallon of water in the am and get it beyond you.

    BOO. Frozen marg's are a waste and your liquor to mixer quantities are really weak. Too much sweet and not enough booze. Try: Rocks glass full of ice Juice one lime 2 shots tequila .5 shot/splash of Cointreau Sweet syrup to taste. none is necessary with good limes, but we sure the fuck rarely get those. Kind of chuckled because my frozen marg recipe is just my standard on the rocks recipe, diluted down with water to ~10-11% ABV, about the same as a standard highball like whiskey and coke, rum and coke, etc.: Juice of 1 lime 3 oz. (2 shots) of tequila 1 oz. (1 pony shot) triple sec/orange liqueur Sugar or syrup to taste Pretty similar, eh? 5 oz of water is as much as the drink and 1/4 cup of sugar is HUGE. Otherwise yep. I like my drinks to do the job.

    Need help tuning a box

    I don't think Maxim magazine has an SPL issue. If your goal is truly SPL get ready to build 3-10 boxes depending on how fast you learn.
  19. Side note, my phone had nearly a volt out so it is VERY equipment dependent.
  20. 280mV with a 0dB and I split it. I am by no means promoting 4v headunits as the solution as that whole marketing ploy is a joke, but at the same time a sub 100mV signal is somewhat weak.

    Make shift pools rofl. Make shift douchebag pools, yes. and then run a pipe from the exhaust so they can have a jacuzzi. and get high at the same time. Sounds like a Southern thing for sure.

Tried muddling the lime with the booze? Does wonders. I am definitely a muddler in general. Comes with tending bar for four years and trying to figure out how to improve your tip jar

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Like they say when cooking with wine: "don't use anything you wouldn't drink". I don't buy any booze that I can't sip straight. That being said I typically don't buy anything that costs more than 25 bucks for a 1.75 L bottle, either. Agavales Silver/Gold, Sauza Silver/Gold/Blue, Canadian Mist, Benchmark #8, Rebel Yell, Old Crow, George Dickel, Diplomatico, Flor de Cana, Mount Gay, and Cruzan are my current go-tos. Sauza Hornitas is my go to Marg Tequila
