Welcome to the IHoP

[Godsmack 361]

The amp and wire arrived safely Jordan!!! Thanks again Homie. I will see you tomarrow nite!! BRING ON THE FLESH!!!!!

Glad the packaging allowed it to arrive safely. I'm taking the next day and change to eat a bunch of food and up my nutrient intakes for the ink marathon I have ahead.

Sweet, more than normal pictures are required in this process.

Would love for this head ache to go away.

Yay for finding Snap-on on Amazon!

Try water.

Or get a boner. The less blood in the brain the lower the pressure.

ROFL

That should be published in a magazine, boners cure headaches, and bitches shit out of luck?

Finished pouring some concrete, two big slabs for driveway. Mixer makes everything easy.

The above pic of the iso setup is Steve meade's, so you shouldn't talk about the negatives.

He da shit!

Well is seems I forgot how much nonfun siding was. My ass is tired and I only hung 6 sq today and removed 17 sq of the old.

I'm pretty certain there shall be pics galore.

The egg is warming up for pork loins today. If I am going to work, I need good food!

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

The score of the day!!!!!!

Should run some mids nicely!!!!!

I would drive that fucker into the ground.

And the same thing could have been accomplished with one driver versus two.

Actually running them isobarically requires 1/4 the power and IIRC 1/2 the enclosure size to achieve the same output.

Is not the idea being the iso to use the second driver for control to make a smaller enclosure work? I've never seen an instance where efficiency is increased, especially to the point where you need 1/4 the power. You've decreased enclosure size, and added a driver, so if anything, efficiency is increased and more power is needed.

With the drivers wired inversely they act upon each other through coupling. One sub pushes the other, reducing the power to reach full excursion. I expected roughly 1/2 the power, but someone somewhere explained how they amplify each other, making the required power 3/8-1/4 the required power.

You decrease the enclosure size because you are doubling the motor strength by coupling them isobarically

System efficiency for isobaric loading is 3db less than that of a single driver in twice the enclosure volume (i.e. same alignment). So not sure why you think required input power decreases, when actually the necessary power input to reach the same SPL level compared to a single driver in the same alignment doubles.

The ONLY advantage is 1/2 the enclosure volume. Since everything is a set of compromises, the trade-off is less efficiency and the requirement of 2x the power input to reach the same SPL.

He da shit!

I dislike SMD as much as the next guy, but if this audio thing ever falls through he should be at the top of the recruitment list for most Fortune 500 companies. The guy is a marketing genius.

Armed with nothing more than youtube videos & online forum promotion, and despite his obvious lack of understanding of the basic principles of both acoustics and electronics, he was able to turn his name into a fairly prominent brand with nothing more than mediocre builds and primarily ignorant logic in the process and design of the system.

That takes some real marketing talent to pull off. Companies would kill to be able to build a brand out of absolutely nothing (by "nothing" I mean no real skill, talent or knowledge) the way he has.

you saw the market value of eD, this industry is good at rewarding the wrong people

[trod2902 26]

I guess its all about appealing to the masses, and since the majority of car audio consumers are ignorant someone like him can capitalize.

[Adrian_D 520]

The fuck...

Isobaric...

[Adrian_D 520]

Bah, I'm slow...

[MKader17 332]

As is the H0P!

[nem 2,019]

Almost done! My hands are hurting and back is sore!

For Sean..........

A few things wrong with that one, but I'd TAKE IT!
