seat belts have always been a pet peeve of mine, #1, why is it considered uncool to wear one...seriously? #2, why don't auto makers put real seat belts in?

i are here now

Don't use bass boost at all. You can eq on multiple sources, it just multiplies the difficulty as well (and usually redundant). Dash mountain can be in the a-pillar firing towards you, in the dash reflecting against the windshield, or even in the a-pillar firing across the windshield (more towards each other, not you). don't bother with the 6x9, get a good 7 or 8 in your door. Full range is a type of driver that will play most everything from a few hundred hz up ( http://www.madisound.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=45_241 ) by no means is this even your "best" option, but just one I am throwing together quickly http://www.madisound.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=1386 http://www.madisound.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=45_241_282&products_id=8585 Where I differ from the other opinions is I personally wouldn't go 2-way with an 8" driver, but that's just personal preference.

i need some pussy badly and baldly

the holy grail....jesus's pimp glass from his last supper. I meant there is no right answer, it depends on your install. mounting/aiming is almost 100% dependent on YOUR install, not your car, not your drivers, EVERYTHING. if you want to come close, try to get all the speakers the same distance from your ears, pointing towards you may work...but it may not (i usually don't like tweets aimed directly at me, i like window reflecting tweets, you may be like 99% of people and prefer them firing across the windshield). Get everything ready, wire up drivers and listen, or guess and hope for the best.

sealed vs ported is simply personal preference. I've heard/built good low tuned boxes and they always sound good, they just don't sound like I want them to. Every ported box i've ever ran has always at some point been replaced with a sealed setup. Hybrid audio is great, but not even close to his budget The absolute best mounting position for ANY speaker is 3" left of the holy grail....good luck on your search. The only way to properly aim speakers is to get it all wired up and listen to them in their places, wadded up towels seems to work well behind the speakers. Listen..adjust, listen adjust listen adjust....it should take a long time if you're doing it right.

Excellent post, thanks for taking the time to actually list what we need to know, but...where are you located? There may be some members close to you with nice frontstages. Do you want a set of components or do you want to make a set yourself (in my opinion you get WAY more for your money this way) Sundowns have great xovers IIRC and are more than versatile enough to go active. That being said, I would never personally do it. Adjusting a crossover from the amp is much harder than it sounds, having your crossover control at your fingertips while siting in the listening position is essential for me. Tweets: Where are they going? Stock location, are you going to make pillars? what size speakers fit? Any pics of the stock mounting locations? Mids: I'd go 7" here if at all possible, unless you can fit 8s, heh. Speakers to look at.... check www.partsexpress.com or www.madisound.com for DIY drivers and www.zaphaudio.com for a bunch of tests on speakers I dont' listen to a lot of metal so I can't really recommend speakers, I can say that if you're going to be chasing quick tight bass you may want to look at running one or two subs sealed (two to increase the output to your liking). I can tell you that I ran a 15" Q sealed off a 1500d and was beyond happy with the results, it could easily drown out my frontstage if I wanted it to but it was also extremely accurate. edit: crap lithium was way ahead of me, i type too slow

and he's a gay fish

i just moved from glen allen...i'm ...nowhere in virginia at the moment

^^ty sean

and, i'm getting laid soon since i'm single....

FWIW my gf just broke up with me i have no job and just quit pharmacy school because it wasn't for me my car was totaled a month ago and it looks like the guy may get away without ANYTHING, not even a charge on his insurance I have more debt than i'll EVER have $$ and my friends dad has brain cancer and has months to live...and i am happy as shit that my life is only as fucked as is....everything in my life can be fixed by yours truly..

I hope you heal up in 5 and can enjoy a few days. Thanks man.............I am 2 days into my con-leave and still feel like ass, but not needing the narcotics as much right now.......... inguinal hernia? was your surgery laproscopic(sp)? my inguinal hernia open surgery took 7 days before i could even stand up straight and barely able to walk. Then again i purposely took it very slow, that's not an easy spot to have pain in.

ohh i picked up the top earlier

there is a microbrew of the month club that is pretty badass if you're just getting in to "good" beer, it's actually what turned me on to good beer.

i've had a few abita's, they were all good but i honestly can't remember anything about them in particular.

god damn misfire god damn misfire god damn misfire

Solid choice ! Don't forget about 4runner's I really want a wrangler/cj or a bronco (prefer early style but would never foot the bill) they would be the perfect camping/kayaking snow play vehicle

(good quality rubber is fine too)

so i have a misfire in the fiero, high charging voltage and a random miss in the idle (maybe knock as well but it hasn't been ran hard because i can't scan for knock yet, nothing more than about 1/2 throttle). i really need the scan cable to come in so i can identify what/which cylinders are misfiring, then start tracking down the culprit. anyone here know where to buy cheap/decent quality silicone vacuum hoses?

and the fiero is charging at ~15v, is that something that should worry me?

what kind of dog do u have? he's 100% mutt http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/vladd06/Dogs/?action=view&current=12-15-05_1926.jpg old pic but he looks the same, just a little more grey EDIT: wtf, if won't let me use img tags?

p paypal credit

oh and that's my top

layed down with the dog to go to sleep, he lays with his head on the pillow usually...i get up to piss and find that he has apparently drooled a 8" circle on my pillow/bed and is still passed out snoring....
