Me too.

Hmm, I need some $$$.

I would like ya'lls input on something.

What type/style of custom speakers do YOU guys think would sell best in a college town? I'm strongly looking at just starting to build and sell for some extra money and curious as to what you guys think would be the best direction to point.

Loud and cheap. If they look cool and not homemade that would help as well.

It snowed here for the first time this winter yesterday, so I decided to take the old car out for a spin to test out the new tires. The new tires made a HUGE difference in traction as I would normally spin in the snow unless I started in 3rd and you could absolutely forget about starting on a hill w/ the old tires in the snow. The new tires, the only time I could spin them was when I wanted to.

Tires are the best thing you can do for any vehicle to make them handle better for any condition.

Words outta my mouth.

it's almost tire time for the stratus again.... i think i might just put tires back on the old steel 15s, sooo much cheaper

The truck and the Audi need them bad too, I am just waiting for a good sale.

off to Seagate

Bored as fudge

[Godsmack 361]

Okay lemme put it like this to the God post

God is like an umbrella. Believe in it and u don't get wet. Quit believing and u get soaked.

We get tempted by evil to step out and take the easy way out but then in the long run we get soaked. We may of been under a overhang at the moment but we won't be forever.

As for cancer, floods, etc. God doesn't give us things we cannot handle. May it challenge us? Yes. But if we keep the faith things DO work out.

I know ur not far from Ft. Riley

Military guys quite often are like that too.

It helps if u make them so they will work on some of these chit low powered home systems too.

Make sure the bass is STRONG

most of them have no clue as to SQ (not that I have a huge one myself LOL)

Sean, great post on the HW.

What tires are you using now?

Possibly using something like a 10/12" and a horn in a floor standing type using PA drivers, high effiency, tuned ~50ish or so. High efficiency, should be fairly loud, and have decent bass?

[JimJ 11]

The one problem I see with PA-type designs is that they're big. Hoffman's Iron Law, sure, but we're like a Mongolian horde that descends on a town and packs up just as quickly.

If it was me, a loud set of three-way bookshelf monitors would be the perfect dorm speakers, as well as being apartment party 'peekas. Maybe something along the lines of a Klipsch Heresy with better crossovers and without the squeaky Tractrix midrange horn. But the Heresy does what every college student wants...

[Adrian_D 520]

found some deep cycles.

pretty cheap compared to the big-name brands and pretty strong. maybe i'll upgrade the battery in the heep to withstand the whopping 550w rms total system power

Have to be huge to get any bass as that is not really the focus of a PA driver.

How are lower-mid line coupes/sedans from Mercedes / BMW in the snow? Canadian snow, eh ... not "we're shutting the city down today because we got 1/4" of snow" snow.

50-15 at best, as we say here.

The lower line Mercedes are maintenance nightmares, I wouldn't buy a benz right now if someone gave it to me.

Neither are optimal if they come with z speed tires. In fact they suck then, with a good set of snows the 3 series in particular is outstanding and a hoot to drive.

Fucking retards running the internet for the rooms here have throttled port 80... so webpages don't load well at all... but you can download at over 1mb/s on the T1. No brains included.

That would be one of the reasons why I haven't been around much, I have the time believe me haha.

[///M5 2,833]

I hate retards

A 3-way with decent crossovers for cheap??

[///M5 2,833]

That is sort of an oxymoron, unless the bass bin portion was truly just that.
