Who else loves the old skool MK series like i do !!!!

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 284 Registered: Jul-05 | Not the current 1s found on the ps2 but those on the Ps1 & SNES . Though i'm a hugh fan of MK i don't like the gameplay on the new 1s as much . MK trilogy is my all time fav fighting game - NONE of the other MKs can touch that 1 ! |

Silver Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 989 Registered: Aug-05 | Scorpion....and Raiden. that was my favorite game for a long time on SNES. |
|
Silver Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 990 Registered: Aug-05 | but my ALL TIME favorite game on SNES was Super Mario World. the one where you walked around on the map w/ different colored Yoshi and then selected the level you wanted to play. *sigh* to be a kid again lol |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 457 Registered: Jul-05 | Hey Muddy - u know what , i still got my SNES in my closet ! i traded off my old carts yrs ago but i kept only 2 games for sentimental reasons MORTAL KOMBAT 2 Super Mario World damn spooky u should say SMW , man the hrs i spent playing that game & MK2 over & over . In my bedroom I had hooked up to my 20" tv a pair of 3way 12" stereo boxes & MAN did that sh!t sound sweet , when a fatality was done in MK it sounded like OMG someone's actually getting murdered ! & we all know the happy music of SMW . Playing Mario give u the happy feeling of eating some good ice cream ... ah .......  |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 470 Registered: Jul-05 | No i'm on the same exact time as u . Thing with games after a while it all seems generic to ya just like Tv/movies & music . Example - Right now theres a ton of car games coming out sometimes 2/3 in 1 mth & there all trying to do the fast/furious NFS U thing so u pretty much doing the same crap all over & from the time u get into 1 another comes out . Same with action everybody doing stealth MGS thing . 1st person shooters - everybody wanna be like Halo . Sports - all sports pretty much the same . Fighting - Tekken & Soul Calibur 2 set the standard so every1 following them . So even though i own them all i only play 5 minute when a new title comes out & hardly play any games @ home . BTW - arcades are extinct in the US but alive & really kicking in my country . My shop is also an Arcade ! & its here i get my daily high when i compete against customers in KING OF FIGHTERS '98 - possibly the most tactical greatest fighting game of all time by ppl who really know arcade fighting games . My new vice is my ride & car audio ....  |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1020 Registered: Aug-05 | i really like the Splinter Cell series. very addicting, and the controls flow like ice cream on a hot summer day. lol i would have to say that i enjoyed playing NFS Hot Pursuit 2 much better than i enjoyed playing Underground 1 or 2. they should setup NFS HP3(i'm praying they come out with one! lol) like NFS U 2 and have it where you can drive your  or  around the city stomping on ricers. lol |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 477 Registered: Jul-05 | Dude - U & I are so much on the same boat ! look what i posted on Sept 3 on the thread " PS3 " "They might have to open 'a few therapy centres' when those new systems come out !. Don't be hating - but i can't stand the Gran Turismo series !!! . The @#$%! controls are so damn hard , 1 mistake & u lose the race . Have to say its the most realistic looking series but i can't stand the gameplay - it sucks ! BTW - Need for speed is THE best racing of all time . No not that flashy Underground 1 or 2 but my all time fav car racing is NFS Hot Pursuit 2 on the Ps2 . None o those cheap @$$ $20,000 cars but 100 gs Exotics - now thats what i'm talikng about !!! ". What a small freeking world - lol , i have that game NFS HP2 5ft away from where i'm typing this ! How do u like this 1  |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 517 Registered: Jul-05 | I meant i would go with 2 each of the same series when i'm ready - in case i made it sound like 1 of each type ,lol On their site its say the IDQ = 500wrms & the IDmax can do 1000wrms . I don't know if i wanna go deaf with 2000wrms as yet so i might just do 2 IDQS on next upgrade . I told Tyler that u to never connect 1 coil & that a sub's total rec rms rating comes when the 2 coils are combined - the retard keeps argueing that u can get the same power if 1 coil only is connected ... so i just let him be ,when he does to his own & damages it then he'll come crying to the forum to explain wha happened ! He's arrogant like the guy who posted the 'audiobahn' thread ! |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1107 Registered: Aug-05 | i knew what you meant, and 2 IDMAx's with a total of 2000wRMS would be VERY LOUD! i agree with you, it is pointless to put two VC's on a sub if you are only going to wire one of them. if you did that, you would melt one of the VC's b/c it couldn't handle or dissipate as much heat if it was spread across two VC's with full RMS power. that guy from the Audiobahn thread really got my blood boiling. he would spit out random information in an attempt to sound smart, and then try and pick apart someone's answer to sound like he was winning the arguement.  |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 554 Registered: Jul-05 | Its a 2001 Nissan AD Van/Wingroad - none ever landed in the USA . Extremely popular here in my country . Embarassed to say that i have mine totally stock since i got it in Dec 03 (BZ with work) - totally original only oil/filter has ever been changed . No rims only stock 13" steelies - this wk or next wk for sure i'm going 15s/16s 5 point rims but its tough to see something u like or get the bolt pattern cause i don't like universal fit rims . Rims then flare kit as well as rear hatch spoiler to also be fitted soon - of course music to be attended too . Trunk with seats up is 3ft deep x 4ft wide ,with rear seat down almost 6ft deep . My new music will be 860 Premier deck ,4 Inf Ref 6.5 1/door ,Alpine F545 & 2 12" Pioneer subs in a ported box i had from b4 & a MB Quart REf RAA1000 amp . No xover ,all signals controlled by deck & filtered through amps filters - if i still need a xover after hearing it then i will buy 1 . |

Silver Member Username: StarsPost Number: 229 Registered: Apr-05 | ... |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1144 Registered: Aug-05 | around $1100 and up depending on what brand. mine were $1300, but my friend spent $800-$900 a rim and $200 a tire on some 18" volk racing rims. |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 561 Registered: Jul-05 | Lost for words there , Jill ?! MW - whats your personal opinion of what my new system is to be ? apart from the cheap subs ... $1100 huh - well i'll be , it costs around US$720 here & up . Rim brands Binno,Fienze can't remem the rest but tire brands incl are either Dunlop, Nexon, Nankang ,Federal & a few others . Rims i'm talking about are regular silver & not hyper silver or chrome which goes about 3 time$ . Those u got are 17s right ? - we do have in my country those p!mped out 22s with spinners etc ... |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1146 Registered: Aug-05 | "BTW Muddy - whats a typical set of 15"s rims with 195/50 series tires costs around your area ? ,just curious to know" sorry, didn't read the question thoroughly, you could get some off brand 15" rims around here for cheap. i was thinking of 17" and up, and a known brand name. my rims are 17" Motegi RT-5's, and my tires are 205/40 Toyo FZ-4's. i think your setup will sound great, with those infinity's and that HU, you should be impressed. i was at the my audioshop the other day and this guy came in with a tan Chevy Tahoe with 26" chrome rims!!!! |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 574 Registered: Jul-05 | 26" chrome rims - hell now thats hugh ,i never even seen bigger than 22s by me . My stock wheel height = 23" , that guy's wheels must be like 32" tall ! . Music - i do like loud like everybody else but clean loud thats Y i chose them Inf ,woulda like the perfects but they r 3 times more but i made sure to spend the $ power wise that i @ least got 2 solid amps . |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1165 Registered: Aug-05 | it is pretty obvious who posted that. do the initials JH mean anything to you? he posted about Alpine HU's, then if you look at his post count and click on his username, it shows he posted only once more before logging off. he was a little fired up in his post about the Alpine HU, so it would only make sense that he would be the one to flame you about the list in the following anonymous post. either it is a BIG coincidence, or he wasn't smart enough to post a few more times after he did that. ------------------------------------------------- Detective Waters lmao |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T...

If thats the case then u really are 1 smart fellow . So easily a guy gets ticked off eh !? Forum admin should post that good/bad list up somewhere so ppl can easily see it so that us guys won't have to post it always in some1s thread - but i guess admin would get sued by all the companies who fall into the bad section - lol |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1168 Registered: Aug-05 | yeah, this website definitely needs some upgrades. -a constant moderator -stickies at the top of each forum -only allow registered people to post, so that way when someone starts flamin or spammin, the active moderator could boot them off -avatars would be cool, but those pics get annoying some times.(the one right next to your name on other websites) -active moderators would be the biggest help. it would eliminate a lot of riff-raff, like double-posted threads and people using insane amounts of foul language in one post stuff like that. actually CAC has an updated list of those good bad and ugly brands in their sticky threads. and they haven't been sued yet, but their is a first time for everything. lol yeah, it would only make sense that it was him, b/c it sounded like that anonymous post was just a continuation of his rant, and it isn't likely that some newb would come into that thread and start bashin you about posting that list, saying that the majority of the people that post that list haven't used the half of the products listed, implying that he has, and JH has some sort of ASE degree or something related to car audio. |

I do keep a copy of it on my pc desktop for my own personal reference though . I do happen to hate follow along reading on CAC & keep reading da blasted 'quotes' 2 the bottom of each post . His profile says 'ASE Certified Master Mechanic' hmmm not car audio certified - but still he should not have been such a dick about it ... |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1174 Registered: Aug-05 | i am changing the bass amp i will be getting. i gave my audioshop $ for the Treo amp, and he called to order it(August 21st) and they said it would be 4 to 6 weeks before they could start shipping them out b/c they are due to get in new circuit boards with a few upgrades on them. so a week ago he called Treo and they said they got a shipment of the new cb's in and they didn't like a few of the things on it/how they were operating, so he told him it would be another 4 weeks. i am a very impatient person, and am surprised that i was able to wait this long, but i can not wait any longer, and i have decided to fork out a little more $ and go with a DLS amp, the DLS Ultimate A6 in particular. i can say nothing but good things about DLS, seeing that i have two sets of their mids and highs and have heard their top of the line 3-way components and was left with my jaw on the floor, so i think it is money well spent, and besides that, they are an extremely respected company in Europe, and will have it in stock ready to be shipped.(or i am taking a plane flight to Sweden. lol) here is a link to the amp: http://www.dls.se/english/index.htm tell me what you think about this amp selection. the main reason i chose the Treo was b/c it does 375wRMS at 4 ohms(which is what my sub is wired at b/c it is a 4 ohm SVC) and does 1500wRMS at 1 ohm, which leaves me a lot of room for upgrading. however, i am REALLY leaning towards the IDMAX, which you have almost sold me on(like a car salesman lol) and i do not need 1500wRMS for one IDMAX, that is just overkill. i had planned on getting 2 Treo SSi 12's(750wRMS each). but i want more SQ over SPL now that i have been on this forum and respect clean sounding bass a lot more than balls out bass before with only moderate SQ. i just wrote a lot lol |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 606 Registered: Jul-05 | I have dial up & am currently online downloading some music (i really like old skool so i'm downloading some bruce springsteen songs) - so my speed is really slow right now doing that . I have never really checked out DLS website b4 - I have about 70 of the more popular companies that i know of on my desktop but there are so many companies i find out about everyday on this forum that i haven't gotten to em as yet . Will give u my 2 cents as soon as i check it out . Treo - hmmm , says on their website that they ahve been in car audio only since 1999 ,they are famous for their DJ loudspeakers though . How are DLS prices/quality compared to Rainbow or even ID comps ? I have to give credit to Jonathan/Isaac for giving me the idea that the IDQ/IDMAX are so good (they compared it to JL in SQ ) in my thread 'idmax vs jl' - but i actually got their inputs 1st on some1 elses thread then i ran that 1 . Have u considered Zapco amps ? - these guys on this forum says its like the ultimate heavy weight of current amps available . Like u i do prefer SQ (maybe SQL) than lousy SPL , but i don't know if 2 IDmax might even be too loud ! . My current subs combined do 800wrms & thats pretty loud to me ,not sure i'd want to jump 2.5 times up to those maxes , maybe 2 IDQs might be enough . Will check out your soon to be stuff later on ... Impatient huh !? - by chance u were born in December like me ? , let me put it to ya this way ,I got very little patience with living objects but non-living material stuff i got a ton like perfectly building/making something ...lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1177 Registered: Aug-05 | i am looking at DLS amps b/c my audioshop carries them and i can get it at dealer cost + shipping i am not sure, but i believe one or two or so of the guys that founded MMATS audio broke off and formed his/their own company(Treo). Treo is know for their durability, and loudness. they started in SPL comps and are slowly working their way around to SQ drivers( the TSX series). DLS's pricey(est) set of speakers is their Iridium 8" 3-way components that retail $1200 or so. Jonathan highly recommends them, and the owner(Steven Head) of the audioshop i go to won the Iasca World Championship with them in 2003 in his repsective class if your pioneers with 800wRMS are loud to you then you wouldn't want to sit in the car with 2000wRMS on two 12's(IDMAX's no less). i was born in June. if you go to www.dlsamerica.com (which makes more sense b/c i live in America, not Sweden lol) and click on US Dealers, and scroll down to Florida, you can see the information of the audioshop i go to Audionutz i am thinking about getting an IDMAX 12" and putting it in its respective sized ported box. or maybe 2 IDQ 12"s in a ported box. i really like single sub setups, b/c when people ask to see what you or whoever may be demoing their vehicle have, i really get a kick out of it when they say "there is only one sub?", or "that's a really big box for only one sub." then i think to myself, thats b/c it has the proper airspace. lol |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 607 Registered: Jul-05 | i just thought of something a guy who post on the amp/sub section name's Mazdaman has 2 IDMAX 12s in his car ! - this wk sometime i asked him how they were & he said they were some of the best SQL he's ever heard . U can look into some threads & find him & hear from him your self . He said he removed 1 of his subs & has 1 now so he'll be the guy u wanna talk to . MMAts - heard that word mention less than 5 times since i signed on here & apparently even less than 5 ppl know them too . But i do know about them cause we got quite a few enthusias here who has em & i heard a few - can't believe that much power comes from such a small amp , their Juggernauths subs are killer too . (heard a rumour that a guy is coming out with a van full of 10 15s in my country !) $1200 - hmmm thats what my soon to be new system is gonna costs not incl new type of subs . If your guy knows about DLS 1st hand & giving u a good deal then go for it . Seems very few guys on the forum go for the really good/high end stuff like u . Fully understand what u getting @ in your last paragraph - too bad ID didn't make a 15idmax ,maybe the SQ would drop if they created a 15 . Like evrybody's talking about RE & their xxx - would u not consider 1 too or u wanna be separated from the crowd . Thats pretty much all Jill says in her posts - she just likes acknowledging that shes around - lol |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 609 Registered: Jul-05 | Well then get 2 of the top o the line BOSS subs , pretty sure no1 else got them - LOL . Am using limewire to get their songs . U would also lol if i told u in my country Boss amps r VERY popular . See its pretty cheap & alot of ppl get caught up in 'wow its a 3000w amp - & plenty power cheap' even some of them know about rms they would still say about that same amp its '2300wrms - thas damn good' ! . Some brag about Boss Hu too , Alot of ppl here have Pyramid stuff too & for them thas da bomb . Pioneer subs like mine also very popular cause its cheap (amped by Boss of course !) . But we do have a liitle of the real audiophiles with MMATS , JL , MB Quart stuff too just that these ppl don't show off their stuff as much . You're finding it hard to pay $400 a sub huh - what about JL's 13w7 - $799 online !!!!!!!! |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 618 Registered: Jul-05 | Treo looks nice - but will they match the SQ thats reported on the IDs ? |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1187 Registered: Aug-05 | no, i was just giving an example of my prices. ID would wipe the Floor with Treo in terms of SQ, now in terms of SPL, Treo gets out the mop & bucket. lol here's the link. these are the brands that i can get really good deals on. https://www.ecoustics.com/cgi-bin/bbs/show.pl?tpc=4&post=448025#POST448025 |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 620 Registered: Jul-05 | Uh - u mean the brands that those guys have pics on ? But if u went Treo on subs it would mean u after more spl then sql . What about 1 of this for some sql http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=2148 or even a lil bit more SQPL ,1 of this http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=2150 Hardly anybody heard of this brand so u can definitely stand apart from the crowd . Does your audioshop pal carry them ? Check also small/neat looking their amps are . |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1207 Registered: Aug-05 | i dont plan on getting Treo subs anymore i am either going to get ID or DLS. here are the brands i can get: he sells:Arc Audio, Image Dynamics, Cerwin-Vega, Treo, US Amps, DLS, Focal, JBL, Pioneer, Morel, Alto, TRU Technology, and Digital Designs. |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 623 Registered: Jul-05 | Now i see y your mind is set on certain products cause u will get a good price from him . Either of the 2 brands u chose should be good - would be best to audition a sub of each in your car ,thats the true test . So what do u do by him - just hang around & help for free hoping to learn more & get experience off it ? For a sub amp i'd pick US amps then 2nd choice Arc outta all them brands . I saw he carries Pioneer to - u ever personally heard that 5000w model of Premier ? |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1212 Registered: Aug-05 | "So what do u do by him - just hang around & help for free hoping to learn more & get experience off it ?" exactly, and in an exchange for a paycheck, i get things at a severely reduced cost. "For a sub amp i'd pick US amps then 2nd choice Arc outta all them brands ." Us Amps went down the drain after they got bought out by some Japanese company.  Arc Audio Amps are Really nice, but i just found out that the amp i will be getting, the A6, is a high-current class a/b amp(kinda like the ones in Glasswolf's setup that he uses to power his 2 XXX's) so it will be lots of very clean power which is cool for me now that i will be buying an SQL sub. i enjoy talking to you more than talking to newbs in the car audio forum, it's too bad we don't live closer, or we could hang out and talk car audio, instead of my fingers cramping up on the keyboard. lol i was thinking of getting a 12" IDMAX, but now i am thinking of getting two 12" DLS Iridium 12's and running the amp at 1 ohm. i change my mind every 5 minutes, so i might never decide on some subs. lol |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 636 Registered: Jul-05 | Oh yeah - i heard that about Us on the forum but 4got . If u can still get the good ol USA made 1s that would be cool . Yep too bad location is not closer - BTW do u even know where my country is located , pull out your Atlas , Trinidad is an island just west of Venezuela (South America !). Only 1 other guy from my country i saw posted here , JusJase is his user name - i helped him locate a JL 10w7 locally . I fully well know what u mean about talking about cars/audio - just this Friday i went to guy i do business with who also does some car customizing as a sideline job & we both talked about cars/audio for about 2.5 hrs while i hanged around his shop . I didn't realised the time passing by so easily & that day i ended up having lunch around 3.30 ! Also did what u mean about not being able to settle on audio products . Just b4 i told u what i was getting as my new car audio , i had changed my mind 3 times b4 i settled on those . My bro lives in Florida & ended up sending 3 lists to order each wk & he said i was driving him nuts trying to decide which to order . Just b4 i joined in on this forum on May i was going with Hifonics for 4 chan & mono amps & Soundstream for components . I knew that long time they were really good brands but when i joined on i found out mass marketing etc that their standards dropped . So to i picked out my final selections i sat 3 days about 6hrs each time online non stop searching . U are getting it all @ costs so u can experiment & sell back if not satified . I know this guy near me who changes equip every 4mths or so cause he just like trying out different set-ups ...... |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 640 Registered: Jul-05 | I already picked out the other stuff u see in my profile & by my bro has already the MB amp from CF & the other stuff he should have ordered by now too .He's gonna post it all down to me hopefully this wk or early next wk . Will use my cheap azz Pio subs for now .. they r pretty agood econo subs though , gets loud but SQ could be better especially when its playing @ low volume - more spl than sq , got them in a pvc ported box , want to experiment & build a slot ported box to see if there's any major difference . But don't u change out too often or your guy will think u r doing it to make some profit off his generousity . 'I know this guy near me who changes equip every 4mths or so cause he just like trying out different set-ups' - this guy just yesterday was telling me that he sold off his BOSS RIP3 amp which he bought in May & he got back same price he paid for it ! He now wants to try the smaller sized BOSS IQ series amps which is same rated power as the RIP3 . Didn't want to burst his bubble so i said 'Y don't u try Power Acoustik instead _ sell same price as Boss ' (u & I know that should be better than Boss !)  |

Saw a 13w7 in a local audio store but never heard 1 - but man, that things built impressive . From far ,the front looks like a cheap azz Audiopipe sub but behind the cone i was humbled from what i saw !  Do u get speed channel & look @ "UNIQUE WHIPS" ??? |

If i ran a thread on it ,it might end up long like the 'audiobahn' thread. So u work part time & still attend some schooling eh - what are u currently studying ? What'll be 'da baddest/loudest' & best SQL systems u helped on in your buddy's audioshop ? Well ya - if JL was priced like Kicker/RF/Orion/Alpine , then who da hell would buy those others ! . I mean if a Benz/Bmw was regularly priced like a Lexus for eg nobody would buy Lexus . Something these guys who bad-mouth JL should understand ... Getting back to the show "UNIQUE WHIPS" - its nice to see JL exclusively being used there . |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1315 Registered: Aug-05 | OKAY......... i have FINALLY DECIDED on my new setup.(always wanted to do that. lol) i am going to get a 12" IDMAX, and run it with my DLS ULtimate A6(which i will be getting by the end of the week hopefully) and it will be going in a 2.8 ft3 ported enclosure tuned to about 28hz(i will not be building the box, Steve will ) What do you think? I think i will be very happy, b/c i was already happy with the amount of bass my 10" put out(around 130db) and it will sound Great! i was going to get the Treo's, but i listen to Rap/Rock about 60/40, so i still want very good SQ, but i know the IDMAX will get loud enough for me when i am listening to my rap.(gotta have my rap lol) |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 672 Registered: Jul-05 | Well guess i really sold u on that IDmax eh . Really hate it on the forum when u give some newb an idea & they ask u every single detail on what to do (convinced that they WILL do just that) then all a sudden they post a thread that they got something else & wanna know what amp/sub ....... U r jumping from a 300w sub to a 1000w so u'd better darn well be pleased . 130db - on that termlab mike them guys always talking about ? Then guesstimate that maybe 140dbs it would hit ? . White boy pounding rap cruising down the mains huh - lol . Eminem is the only rap artist that i listen too - i like more old skool 80s pop/metal/rock/dance stuff . I like all the 80s early 90s 'hair bands' - The Scorpions are my all time fav Metal band . i had long hair too ,lol - u know that was the trademark when u listen to metal but i wore normal clothing & NO g@y earrings ! I'd always go for SQ (& L) system for me personally - i can't understand Y ppl would buy some big spl subs & blast themselves deaf just so that they can get attention driving down the street . Now if they got a really loud but CLEAR sound system - well hell yeah play it briefly loud/proud , lol !  |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1364 Registered: Aug-05 | "U r jumping from a 300w sub to a 1000w so u'd better darn well be pleased" yeah, and i am only pushing 180wRMS to my single 10" and i will be pushing 870wRMS to the 12" IDMAX, b/c i read on another thread that no more than 800wRMS is needed to bring out its full potential, besides that, i can run my amp at 2 ohms instead of 1, and that will put less of a strain on my amp(which is Class A/B. glasswolf said he would pick it over the other Class D Treo amp i was going to get too, so that means it has to be halfway decent right? lol yeah, i used to be into all that loud thumping bass, and i finally got it through my head that i would rather have my music as accurate to the original recording as possible, instead of having really loud, sloppy bass. i used to hate rap, and then about 3 years ago, i started listening to it, and couldn't get enough. you would never guess what i listened to when i was a kid growing up.....COUNTRY!!! lol |

Definitely, right now, i am splitting 75 watts RMS between the front pair of speakers, and the same in the back. When i get my Bass amp, i will be able to use the other one on just my mids and highs(which are very loud right now) and will split 150 watts RMS between the front and the same between the back. |

To tell u how different it looks when i was coming back home with em , i stopped by my sister & her husband & he seeing a car parked in the yard had to think twice who's car is that . He knew my car is the same model but did a double take when he saw me & ran back to really check it out . Will post some pics to ya soon as i can .... |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 704 Registered: Jul-05 | Mighty impressive ! - i would fraid to have earlier eaten & go sit it that car - cause i might soil his seat !!!!! Sitting in there that thing must have your ear lobes flapping like a bird . What brand of HU is that ? - can't see it clearly . SQ might be pushed aside in favor of Sp - but how does it sound generally ? Run a thread on it entitled "A 152BD SET-UP !" Er - i think that i got 1up on his rims , mines definitly looks better . lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1409 Registered: Aug-05 | it is an Eclipse HU. it has an anti-skip feature in which it stores 10 seconds of music. perfect for that setup! lol yeah, i think he needs new rims. i think i will run a thread on it, but i just posted a new one in the sub forum(remember how i said i change my mind like every five minutes) lol |

Hope that when its time 2 pick a wife u don't go changing that easily - LOL I recently had that frustration of picking products but finally settled & if i feel i can get better i'll sell em off & buy again . U have the major advantage over many in that u r getting it co$t price & can still sell over if tired of it - i'd still say go with your original instincts & get that 1 12' idmax .... though personally i must say i would think that 2 12s IDq would be louder with more SQ & louder than a single 12 idmax .......  |

You are completely correct in every aspect. I will stick to Image Dynamics, and have considered 2 IDQ's, but like i said before, i really like single sub setups for a number of reasons.(cheaper, better shock factor when you show someone, less space required, etc.) |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1463 Registered: Aug-05 | I thought i wanted an IDMAX, then i thought i wanted something else, now i am certain that this is what i will be getting.(for around $280 shipped no less!) thank you Rovin, i can't believe i wasn't smart enough to look up review online, DUH!! lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1464 Registered: Aug-05 | oh, lol about the hungry post. sometimes i eat dinner late, but i am starving like right before i go to bed, and can't wait to wake up the next morning and get something to eat!.(cuz it's not good to eat right b4 you go to bed, your body stores everything as fat.) that was one of those nights. lol |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 741 Registered: Jul-05 | Forum is really slooooooooooow 2day so i had nothin better 2 do so i just google it - like what u been tellin alot of newbs !!!!! Actually i was thinking about my options too cause a couple days ago a fellow countryman named Rawle & i met online on this forum & 2day he actually came 2 see me in my shop & is considering buying my 2 Pioneer 12s with box ! So if he actually does - i'm looking around 2 see whats out there & online retail price . All the time i was thinking that the IDQ model = 500wrms when its actually 350 so thats y i said get 2 of em b4 - so my bad . Actually seeing they have a 15" IDQ = 450wrms Right now i'm looking @ this site http://www.infinitecaraudio.com/cgi-bin/icastore.cgi?user_action=category&catego ry=Shop%20by%20Brand & listening 2 Eminem's Encore album -lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1467 Registered: Aug-05 | you want to know something creepy? right now as i type this post, i am listening to "Superman" by Eminem! lol |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1468 Registered: Aug-05 | that webiste lists the 10" IDMAX's at $395 and the 12" IDMAX at $299 seems kind of odd to me. |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 742 Registered: Jul-05 | "Actually seeing they have a 15" IDQ = 450wrms" - no that should be = 350wrms .... |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1469 Registered: Aug-05 | a 15" IDQ is rated at 600wRMS. or at least the V.2 is. http://imagedynamicsusa.com/products_page.php?id=idq&type=sub |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 744 Registered: Jul-05 | Oh crap - u r right , i shoulda done like u & get to their website instead of reading that bunch of misinfo on online sites . 1 online site said its 350 other said 450 , damn pple like they don't proof-read what they advertise ! Since i already ordered & my bro in Florida received that C.Field MB Quart amp RAA1000 1000wrms @ 1ohm - i have 2 look @ options to work with that in case i sell off my subs . |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1470 Registered: Aug-05 | you could go with two 12" IDQ's. that would be perfect for that amp(i'm sure you already knew that. lol) Muddy-->  -->IDMAX LOL |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1471 Registered: Aug-05 | Rovin---> ---> LOL |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 747 Registered: Jul-05 | Maybe i'd go with the advice i gave u & do 1 IDmax 12" - lol Cool picture ,where'd u steal that from ? I noticed though those terminals r cheap looking - is that how they actually come or is taht an older yr idq ? Notice those gallery pics on id's site . I posted in your "another idmax ?" thread ... |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1480 Registered: Aug-05 | i googled the words "image dynamics IDQ" and it was on the 1st page. i think that is an earlier model. the new ones are more of a teal than dark green. |
