Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

Unless the guy SERIOUSLY drops trou on that mack-alack I am not going to buy it. Shitty part is now I want one...with Forced Induction. Probably going to cost me more to build it, but fuck it.

Only BS with Asus is their idiotic marketing. They make it so fuckign confusing to figure things out. I love my UX31

Yeah, you really have to pay attention and stuff changes all the time

I'll probably end up with an Asus again. I see other manufacturers stuff that pretty much meets my needs but I'm always worried the build will be crappy.

Sean, how is the 1080p on the 13.3 screen? Seems like everything would be tiny.

I got rid of my 19" monitor because 1080 is small.

I have only had the V for a few months and now I am looking at 2011+ F250's - F450's. Never realize how much you miss the big diesels till they are gone.  But that goes for speed aswell, I need to just suck it up and quit looking around on cars.com

I do it all the time, it drives me nuts.

Sean,

I know my diet is shitty. I don't even need to write it down. I have trimmed back on sweets, and am trying to cut down on soda. Next will be processed foods.

Once you eliminate the garbage things like fish will all of a sudden taste better.

I do not eat fast food...but when I do I want it the next day. Fucking empty calories confuse your body. Best cure for fixing your diet is to eliminate processed foods and your taster will evolve rapidly.

what really helped me cut a lot of soda and fast food was honestly my wife. We MAYBE eat out once a week, its usually not fast food. But having someone there with you makes it a lot easier. But I do get the random craving for processed foods, usually pizza. But I just end up making something better instead and saving it for a cheat day.

Will be ordering Exodus Anarchy's in 8 ohm. No need to run 4 ohm with LP amps. I will probably be installing tweeters in doors above midbass. Was originally going to run ID horns but new vehicle won't allow it. Looking to get loud without harsh metal sounding. The build is.

Alpine cde-hd149bt

Audison bitTenD

Linear Power 2202 to xxxxxx tweeters

Linear Power 3002 to Exodus Anarchy (thanks for the link, I thought they were long gone)

Audison SR1dK to Crystal cmpx2 15

Definitely open to tweeter recs. $100-$150 budget for tweeter pair only.

What is "loud"?

In the doors you are going to be better off with something that is good off axis, but those never play well down low. The Anarchy can reach up higher than dedicated midbasses, but it isn't its forte. Considering it is the doors nearly any full format tweeter works.

The HDS is reasonable if it isn't terribly off axis. It won't be "loud" per se, but you are going to be limited by the mid anyways and not the tweeter.

At that price point they are winners. If you want to spend less they are other options. I don't think they are perfect for your needs, but nothing can replace horns.

I second the HDS because that's the combination of drivers I'm using in my car (ex-anarchy + hds), and I've been extremely happy. I have my tweets installed in the a-pillars so they aren't quite off-axis as they would be in the doors though.

 

Just to give you a rough idea I have the tweets crossed ~1950hz with an 18db slope. Don't remember the filter type off hand though.

Dexter's sister Deb looks so much like 13 from house it's freakin me out.

Olivia Wilde is WAY hotter, in my opinion of course.

I like both a great deal.

Officially moving to Dallas. Has been in the plans for a few months now. All details ate finalized with jobs.

Found this little ditty for a decent price. Overpriced for the neighborhood but the house has potential.

Tune extra, but that'd be the same on either.

Of course the other rig only had 28k mi so the value when selling would be higher on it.

Except of course the build here would be WAY more robust.

Just called up Doug Rippie. His guesstimate was exactly that. $10k for a procharger and $5k for forged guts.
