    Help pick sun/components, 2012 Gmc crewcab

    Don't take the suggestions too much to heart. What sounds good to someone is mostly subjective. For example, I seem to prefer my music a little "brighter" than most, but that's how I like it. Everyone's hearing is different. The only thing people can really tell you is what they think sounds good. There are some extremes and exceptions, but not too many. How do you want it to out do the system in your integra? You're loosing a small amount of cone area by going from the single 12 to a pair of 8's, but you're going to end up with a significant more amount of motor force. Are you going to port the SA's? I had a pair of the 15's in both a sealed and ported box. In my opinion, they fell short in both output and sound quality in the sealed box. I liked them much, much better in the ported enclosure (as do most people).

    I just can't remember if it happened on this site or if it was just a link to SMD or CA or something. The point we're trying to get across is that scams happen ever so rarely here, and if they do, you better believe you hear about it and that persons name gets skarred.

    Can't recall us having a scam on here in the past 4 years or so. Maybe from Kevin S. (owner of Skar Audio), but I'm not sure. Welcome

    That black and white photo of the bridge is awesome. I've done some work in B&W (classes) and I wish I could produce something like that. Glad to see you're back posting awesome photos

    One of my favorite things about music

    Welcome to the IHoP

    For me, sometimes it is the lyrics and sometimes it isn't. Some people think songs with no lyrics cause the musicians to get their ideas across a more soulful medium. Those people commonly think that lyrics take away from the ambiguity of the music (Tchaikovsky for example). Lots of song writers also feel like they can get their emotions across more accurately with an instrument as it's capable of doing things that human vocal chords simply can't. However, I am a huge fan of vocalists. I absolutely love good singers. To me, the lyrics themselves don't really matter that much to me. But I totally understand if anyone does. I'm a huge fan of music. It's by far my favorite art form. This is one of songs that chills me out the most and I can listen to no matter what. I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I literally just wanted to know exactly what you meant by living it up. I'm a stressed out college student and I'm seriously open for ideas to ChiLL. But evidently I'm a dick and a douchebag. Kind of hypocritical. I understand if other people talk shit about you, but don't take that hostility out on someone who is having their first interaction with you. Take your own advice.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    You're so very quick to point fingers and call people names... that's saddening for an optimist like me :/ Plus, it's a lame frostedflake's pun. Tony the tiger.

    So what's your advice for giving in and letting go a little? This should be interesting

    Incriminator Audio 6.5 Components

    Hey! I just wanted to know if the components you buy here: http://store.soundso...components.html come in a set or if they come with one woofer, one tweeter, and one crossover. So if I were to purchase that item, would I receive two of everything or one? Thank you for your time!

    Question on power cable routing

    Very, very good point sir! Then I would run it through the cabin. It just seems like the right place for a wire to go and comes off as being more professional. My opinion only, of course. As stated before, you also have less wire exposed to the elements. Even though there is only a slight chances that the elements can danger the wire, it's still one thing less to worry about.

    Question on power cable routing

    Do not connect the grounds of the two batteries together if they are that far apart. Ground the D3100 in the rear to a much closer point.
