:rotate: nice.
You're my hero Ferris Biju... :cool:
nice!! i think i need a moment alone with those photos.... ;eekb;
that looks awesome!!:thumbup:
Thats a really great job done. I could sit here and look at those photos all night because how nice they are.
thx.
i'm pretty happy with the results thus far. barely finished this for moab - and didn't even have a chance to 'tweak/tune' her until weeks after i got home.
i figure this project is 85% finished - still have the rear fill to fabricate in the ceiling, and midbass kickpanels. i'm burned out on the project tho - and need to step away for a while (my wallet will appreciate it too). i'll pick it up again this winter maybe.
for now - it does sound good. and that's all i was really going for. sound quality.
-beej.
So, when you going to put a stereo in that thing? :_confused
:_drool: :_drool: :_drool:
I am sad to see all that zesty space go to Jesus-Land for a stereo, but at least it looks nice. As I say in all threads about systems that are showy.... wouldnt last long around my way. :p
i know it's a compliment - so, thanks wormgod..! *if* i did live near you, sounds like i'd have no choice but to add the only thing i didn't add to my security system...Quote:

hmmm, wonder why they don't sell em anymore...
u Americans r crazy. ;)
just a question' why did you decide to face them up? also what did you meter at?
why not? ha!Quote:

the meter numbers? ;puke2; i haven't metered it. i won't meter it. i have no interest in the SPL numbers - more interested in the frequency peaks/valleys and the imaging of the front stage for overall sound quality. (i'm more old school that way...) don't get me wrong... i'm sure it would 'meter' well. i mean, they're two resonant engineering 12" MX's with a solid supply of power!
(sipping beer...)
at one point i was even thinking about putting the subs in an acoustic suspension enclosure to maximize SQ - but didn't have the mono power from the M2 to feed em' what they'd need in that type of environment (less efficient enclosure). In the end, I went with the bass reflex enclosure for more efficiency, but again, didn't want em' pounding directly into my back/ears so up they went!
besides, i had *really* good results from my two mtx 10's in two decware deathbox's that had ports firing up (granted different enclosure, etc., etc...)...
(sipping more beer...)
the spl craze is sad to me. Just my view. There's more to music than trying to figure out how much money you can spend to loose your hearing in the shortest amount of time...
i dunno. i need another beer... ha!
(it's been a rough day).

Ha, yes, it's a compliment. Sick, sweet system. You know me though.... I tend to cut to the chase. ;)Quote:

(i know, different subs amps boxes etc)hence the question. anyways why mx's for sq and it seems that the dd amps are made for spl. 1% thd??
Im not hating on your system, its a fantastic install, with good componets. just conversation.
so have another beer and learn me some more.
I suddenly feel very, very old. I'm gettin' another beer for each hand.
how did i miss this reply? :confused:Quote:

my definition of being a hobbyist is exploring, testing and taking chances on brands that interest me - and the only way to entertain that curiosity is to dive in and give em' a try. once that's done - i'm able to form opinions on the equipment - and refine as necessary (to my liking).
thus the choice of the dd amps.
now the re mx's?... sexy, eh? i had the opportunity to hear them in a (optimum volume) acoustic suspension enclosure. i was sold. so i figured i'd give em' a try, and i did! loved them in the vx, but not so much with the ported enclosure i built. (read above for why i decided to go ported if you're wondering...) that's why they went to a new home.
i saw another post from ya where you ask 'what's next'? well, i usually am not one to spout off about 'i'm going to' or 'eventually i'll have' or 'i plan on' getting this equip or that equip. (in other words - i usually wait until i have it and *then* post about it.) however, i think i have enough past history where folks know i'm not just a schit talker - so i'll share some of what i'm *thinking*...
* improved signal quality
* more efficiency
* better imaging
* improved damping/slew rate
* less 'boom' - more tight, low, clean bass
some products i'm researching right now to help me achieve that: zapco, fi, sundown, jl, us amps
not that those are the only ones in the running. they're just the ones i'm doing research on currently. we'll see. i have a long way to go.
i love this stuff.
