Ohh eff me. My girl has been wanting to do this diet/cleanse/fast for a long time and we have a week we can commit to it so I agreed, but damn it's killing me.

Goes like this.

Day 1 : Fruits

Day 2 : Vegetables (and a medium potato with a pat of butter for breakfast)

Day 3 : Fruits and Veggies (no potato today)

Day 4 : Bananas (up to 8) and milk (up to 3 glasses) (:wtf:)

Day 5 : 20 oz of beef and 6 tomatoes

Day 6 : Unlimited Beef and Veggies

Day 7: Whole Grain Rice, Fruite Juice and Veggies.

Any time: A soup that involves lots of onions, cabbage, a 28oz of tomatoes, celery, bell pepper (I found it is 33 calories per cup)

We are on day 2 and my body is like WTF?? We are using the core definition of fruit and veggie so I had some avocado,and zucchini along with other typical fruits and the soup yesterday. But today it is straight veggies and there are not real veggie "cheats". Luckily, tomorrow is fruits and veggies and olive oil is a friggen fruit in my book! :P

What the fuck is wrong with you?!

Don't listen to the gf! :P

That sounds absolutely stupid.

Left and right are independent. Almost annoying when you want them to match as you have to manually copy them in particular with custom biquads.

I bought the parametric version as it has the capability of more than enough bands that graphic makes no sense.

As far as I can tell there are 6+6 bands per channel, correct ?

With a graphic I'd have about 20 bands in the mid passband, which is where it will be used. But they will be 1/3 octave apart, while with the parametric I can address things better frequency-wise...

really really need to stop reading bbq forums

They are more full of idiots than car audio forums. Be wary what you "learn"

Learn? Heh, I just enjoy watching how creative people can be with scrap metal. It's interesting what they come up with.

Last time I saw somebody "play" with scrap metal was when a group of gypsies asked me to load a dumpster with 3 chunks of smelting plant residue, to sell it afterwards. Well over one ton each, quite some cash, that's also creative tongue.png

Even weirder is that they dug the chunks out of the ground.

Cleanses do not work.

Diets do not work.

End of discussion.

6 + 6 is right for BOTH L & R. The second 6 can be custom biquads though so they are uber flexible. 12 non-restricted parametrics are better than 40 fixed graphics. I used one as a shelf filter in my installation to fix the stupid passive.

Frequency response is determined by install. EQ fixes the BS.

I want to try and fix the BS on my left side midrange and try to get some better focus through L/R cut and boost.

Right now it's pretty stupid, I can only match left / right levels through balance, which applies to both midrange and midbass, so it's a huge compromise. Bridging the 4 channel and using it for the midbass will allow me to level match them left / right and the miniDSP = tons of extra tuning for the midrange.

Wish they made a 7 channel. Would make sense for 3 way active + and also for home audio although in the latter case only for eq, time delay and some crossover.

2 99$ ones should make for an 8 channel, just split the source output and presto !

You mean 2 $95 ones :P

That's what I have in the boat. One 4chn adv plug in one 2.1 adv. Sub and in boats on the 2.1 and the 4 chn for the active towers.

Do beware the source voltage input/output limitations. If you are running cheap amps *coughs* a line driver may be beneficial to keep thermal noise from being a concern. I haven't actually tested the polks for thermal yet, but will when I finally do the towers.

I am never owning another Sundown Multichannel amp. I have hd nothing but problems with my 125.2.. this will be the second time warranty-ing the amp.

When the amp turns on there is an audible WHIIIIRRP sound, one channel is bad.. it crackles even with the HU rca's out, etc,etc,etc.

Can do, I'm not sure what other amp I'm going to go with. I plan on going with a 2 way active setup involving the new Rockford PA stuff.

The new Pa stuff actually sounds great.

Thanks, I may know somebody who is looking for one.

I am needing something that does around 100.4 at 4 ohms.

I'll be running active off of my 880prs so processing will be handled well... hmmm

the tweeter will be an at 8 ohms and the mid at 4 ohms.
