Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 995 Registered: Jul-05 | Just logged on . He received it a lil while now this upcoming wk'll make it 3 . Wk b4 last he plced an order for my Inf comps but turns out d 1s i ordered unknowingly were last yr's model & it so happened that d company we ordered them from were out of stock so they told us that info . So again now he had to give them d new order just this Wed gone so i guess it'll b another wk to receive it . Talk about being anxious about getting stuff - i've been planning my new set-up since May & partly due 2 my bro being bz with his work & other stuff too - its all now being organised . He also has 2 see about organising some PS stuff 2 b sent 2 me too & @ d sme time wants to come down here 4 a visit by this mth's end so i'm thinking he will most likely bring my new deck & comps with him then so again its another mth -  JL thread - not really , i mean we already have so much in common that there @ least must a different view somewhere along d line . I bet ya a 100 bux if your shop carried Jl & say u coulda get a 13w7 @ 1/2 online price that sub would be sitting your trunk long time now & u'd like "er what's an idmax !?"- LOL I say ur pal BloodyW is on ya case again - that guy just doesn't give up & @ 2am ! very few ppl were on d forum last night u know so that can narrow d list of possible suspects .....  |

Silver Member Username: StarsPost Number: 248 Registered: Apr-05 | ok u guys, if u 2 r talking about car stuff and crap, may be u should go 2 the car audio thread, and talk there. this is the PS2 thread! |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1001 Registered: Jul-05 | Jill - i'd gladly discuss Ps2 games itself with u & everybody but like i said a few wks back ,all that ppl use this section is to WHINE about problems that their ps2 is not reading disc etc . Days & sometimes a whole wk will pass b4 ANYBODY post anything actually related to Ps apart from console problems . Its a free domain so MW & I created our own thread 2 discuss matters relating 2 both of us cause we don't want to clog up the forum like some ppl do with threads that are like a yr & a 1/2 old . Anybody can freely read what we both say here - so its nothing personal like & i doubt very much we are bothering anybody ...  |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1867 Registered: Aug-05 | Jill, you need to chill. haha, that rhymed. that is also the most i have seen you say in one post. if the admin had a problem with it, they would email us, or simply ban us. *prays not to be banned* and like Rovin said, this is one of the, if not the slowest forum on the website. |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1006 Registered: Jul-05 | Hey - i just came in the house , i was installing that new deck like i told u i would . Some photos will b posted later 2night . Started kinda late like 3pm ,actual work did not take long but i had 2 keep runing up/down d stairs 4 stuff . Looks & sound remarkably better as expected - Funny story though , throughout d time i was doing d install d key was turned in the ignition so as to stop that annoying "ding,ding" sound your door makes when its open . So after d install i sat there 4 about an hr or more admiring what i'd done & of course blasting it - i decided well thats good enough as i turned d key 2 park my ride , d engine WON"T TURN OVER ! .....apparently da battery drained down - LOL !  So i had o push it in d garage . I did run d wires & rcas for d amp so maybe 2morrow i'll get 2 that . But i'm thinking a new battery is in d cards cause apparently thats d original battery my car came with - car was made in 2000 & i bought it 2nd hand in Dec 03 so i'm thinking that battery has more than done its duty & i don't wanna b shutting down all over da place & looking 4 a jumpstart .... See u on d forum a little later 2night ... |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1016 Registered: Jul-05 | this box was built around June or July & is intended 2 hold my 2 Pioneer subs - each chamber has a a vol of 1.88 cu.ft as opposed 2 d 2 separate boxes way above whose vol = 1.65 . This 1.88 is said to b better 4 these subs - have never tested out this box yet but i fully expect it 2 rock since its built strong as a rock - lol top,bottom,front are carpeted , 2 sides & back are Arborited in black ,currently tuned to 50 i think but i'll redo d port lenghts to rec 37.55hz . Note how i join my 2 dvc wires - i use electricians connecting strip terminals . Those fancy designs hanging on d wall r all made of steel by ME ! - just over 5yrs ago i had my own shop doing ironworks like steel gates,windows ,burglar-proofing etc ... got tired or getting strained lifting heavy work so i had 2 retire from it . I'm self thought & loved creating stuff with steel . 2 dogs everytime they see me with a camera they luv 2 pose so i must take 1 pic everytime -lol last 5 is what i did 2day showing how my dash easily comes apart & new deck in . Did not install d frame around d face cause that'll require some bracket fabricaion & since this is temp , y bother ..... |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1934 Registered: Aug-05 | hmmmmm. that will cost a pretty penny to ship, unless he brings it with him when he comes down. that kid had me pretty p!ssed of. i was going to post this, but he finally submitted. lol ------------------------------------------------- also, i know how loud 150db is. i hear it twice a week, every week. i won't go into it, nevermind yes i will lol, but i sit in a car that does 152dbs every time i visit my audioshop before i leav, and i assure you, yours does not hit 152 on a TL, maybe on am AC. this car 2 12's each of which has 4" peak to peak excursion, and it has 1 USA 2000x on each, a total of 4kwRMS of power and they are in a fiberglass enclosure in which the subs are right behind your head, and the ports are above your head. so your telling me that your 2 Lanzar(low build quality subs) with only 2000wRMS in a box in your trunk hits louder? i'm sorry but i don't think so. ------------------------------------------------- looks rather harsh now that i read it a second time. lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1935 Registered: Aug-05 | how i was able to get that, was b/c i typed it, then i right clicked it and hit copy, and waited for him to say something else, but then he gave up, so i didn't want to beat a dead horse. lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1960 Registered: Aug-05 | yes. besides that, when you order online, there is no middle man that has to make money. but i don't no where woofers etc. got the retail prices on those Image Dynamics subs! lol got 2 go 2 work se ya later, around 8 p.m. or so. |

|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1976 Registered: Aug-05 | everything seems kosher on that website, except for the 1-year warranty. the only website that can offer a warranty of ID subs is SoundDomain, they are the only authorized online dealer for ID. but those prices are the cheapest i have seen. i used to watch WWF, back in the days, but now i like to watch UFC. now that is some hardcore fighting. |
|
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1036 Registered: Jul-05 | "everything seems kosher" - thats mean they're OK/legit !? if so i may order 2 IDQ 12s from them very few online sites sell ID subs ,sound domain does not have any in stock - b@stards ! R u getting yours even cheaper than that ? coming back just now - looking @ headline on Leno ... |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T...

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1997 Registered: Aug-05 | yeah, i was going to repost, and say that i would be the one being childish to let some pointless and inane comments get under my skin, but i got preoccupied with the Green Bay-North Carolina Game. lol yes lol, everything seems kosher means they are ok. lol yes, i can get mine cheaper than that, but not much cheaper. |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1042 Registered: Jul-05 | Ok now u got me really curious - what he giving u it 4 ? & don't worry cause its pretty deadsure this info won't get back 2 him & even it does ,no effect . I'm guessing $250- i'm guessing that u would b able 2 afford it b4 Xmas cause that ain'y much $ . That WWE is really wacked - haven't seen it in 2yrs since it went on PPV . We all know its scripted but sometime they tend 2 overact like beat up d owners ,this evening Stone Cold did his trademark move on d whole McMahon family father,son,daughter then d mother & apparent u don't get fired or taken 2 court 4 kicking d bosses azzes ... What i enjoy is d acrobatics/physics of d fights - d pain those guys feel falling 2 d ground etc is real . BTW - i'm searching d net 4 a good multimeter ,what u think about this 1 ??? http://www.sears.com/sr/javasr/product.do?BV_UseBVCookie=Yes&vertical=TOOL&pid=0 3481077000&tab=des#tab i'm thinking about getting 1 from them so as 2 save s/h charges .... |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1043 Registered: Jul-05 | Chauncey B - Welcome to d 1-on-1 forum of MW & Rovin  , we talk about our crap here so as not 2 bother others on d forum ...... Well their power tools are not really d greatest sorta like basic Hifonics,Pioneer - works ok to good but a bit not too precise & seem like they cut corners & can b a tad more refined like say Milwaukee/Makita/Dewalt or others like that . What i should have included 2 ask was - does that model have good features 4 installing car audio stuff & is it a reasonable price ? |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2006 Registered: Aug-05 | we should suggest an OT thread in Car Audio in the suggestions forum. |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2007 Registered: Aug-05 | my shop uses Makita power drills. i would buy it, bu then again, i don't know any good or bad brands of multi-meters, just car audio!! lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2016 Registered: Aug-05 | DUDE!!!! while me and steve were hooking up my amp, he asked me what the sub model and VC was, and i told him it was a SVC 4 ohm 2000a sub. he said "No, that's wrong" and i said "yes it's right, b/c it is hooked up to my amp at 4 ohms. he then said "go get the dmm and well measure it" so we did and it came out to 8 ohms. WHICH MEANS IT IS A DVC 4 OHM SUB. WHICH ALSO MEANS IT CAN'T BE A 2000a sub. so i was in awe, and i asked him what model of sub is it then? and he said he remebered ordering it and that it is a 3500 series rated to take 500wRMS. so anyway we had it hooked up to my US amp at 8 ohms in series which meant the sub was getting only 90wRMS!!!!!!!!!!!! and it pounded with 90wRMS!!!!! so now we are hooking it up to my A6 to give it 870wRMS!!!! hahahahahahaha i'm so excited!! i can't believe i didn't even know what model of sub i had or how much power it was getting.!!! |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2017 Registered: Aug-05 | WHICH also means i probably won't be getting an IDMAX, b/c i wanted louder, but NOW i will be getting way louder!!! 90wRMS to 870wRMS!!!!!!! and that sub has Excellent SQ due to contrary belief that DD's are SPL subs, but b/c they have such great build quality ppl use them in comps. i am so excited!!!! (i know i already said that) |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2018 Registered: Aug-05 | i still can't believe that i didn't know the model of the sub i have or the ohm load. that sub hits 128-130dbs wih only 90wRMS!!! just imagine 870wRMS!!!! |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2019 Registered: Aug-05 | my bad, my bad. it is a DD 2500 series. but it's still 500wRMS. |
|
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1057 Registered: Jul-05 | "while me and steve were hooking up my amp" - horrible english , boy - horrible ENGLISH ! Corrected : While Steve and I were hooking up my amp ....... LOL So - wait just a darn minute here , it now means u r NOT going to get an idamx again but now going 2 give your 500wrms sub its rec power ???????????? How r u gonna explain 2 all d guys that u did not know what ur sub was connected too & apparently u did not know .......hmmmmmmmm thats d main reason 4 d name change !? - lol |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2025 Registered: Aug-05 | no, just a huge mixup. but i'm tellin ya, you would have never guessed that sub only had 90wRMS going to it. yes, now it will get its rec power, instead of it only getting so little. i changed my name b/c i was tired of peeps trying to test my patience with their smart*ss unregistered names trying to mock me. and b/c i felt no need to hide behind a name that wasn't mine. |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2026 Registered: Aug-05 | what happened was D-Bo, the guy who installed it over a year ago knew what it was and knew what it was wired up to, but he never told me, so i just assumed. as you know, the first three letters in assume are. lol |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1063 Registered: Jul-05 | Your last line was what my teacher when i was 10 yrs old used to say to my class whenever we used that word - so that pretty much was stuck in my brain & i have NEVER since it since that time ---- LOL thas y i like doing stuff by myself - no 1 2 assume in this case -- heh heh ........

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1073 Registered: Jul-05 | whad up , dudes !? Chauncy - u can catch up on all da crap Josh & I have been yaking about on our former thread https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/video-games/158994.html |
|
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1075 Registered: Jul-05 | Josh - apparently what i've read (a couple mths aback) in GW site about your 90wrms applies https://www.ecoustics.com/electronics/forum/video-games/158994.html thats y he's considered d unapposed leader here - lol |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2038 Registered: Aug-05 | actually D-Bo said that 8 ohms mono on an amp is the same as 4 ohm stereo as far as output, so he said that if my amp does 75 a channel at 4 ohms, then my DD was getting 150wRMS. i have everything installed, except for the Alternator. when he ordered the alt, he told the guy that there were mounting brackets at 12 o clock, and 4 o clock, so the guy sent my alt with the cooresponding mounting places on the alt casing. WELL, he messed up, b/c the mounting brackets are at 12 and 5 o clock, so the alt didn't line up with the brackets. but he is sending it back, hopefull tomorrow, and i will have a brand new one with the correct casing mounts at 12 and 5 oclock, and then i will have it put on. i will say even with my stock alt, the sub is easily twice as loud, SERIOUSLY. BUT, the car STRUGGLES to give the amp its proper power, and everything dims very badly(so no loud listening for me until i get my HO alt back.) but when i rev the engine a little bit to get the voltage up, IT BECOMES EVEN LOUDER!!!, so i think once i get my alt, i will be "quakin", and i still have(and think it is even better with this A6) Impeccable SQ. |
|
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1080 Registered: Jul-05 | so u gonna keep that DD 10" a bit longer or r u gonna continue with your plans & still buy d IDMAX ?????? |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2043 Registered: Aug-05 | i would really like to get an IDMAX, REALLY, but it will not be first priority, but if i happen so save up some cash, then yes, that will be the first thing i buy. i am really impressed with this DD. i thought it was extremely loud for a single 10", and so did ALL my friends, and everybody that i demoed the vehicle to while i was at the shop, but now?....it is rediculously loud for 1 10" i just wanna get my alt put in. haha, half the ppl that read my first few posts with my new name didn't even recognize me. lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2044 Registered: Aug-05 | i wish you lived closer Rovin so you could hear my setup and i could hear yours(you too Chauncey lol) i am really excited about my new setup, but i won't post any pics until i get my alt put in and we fix a few of the wires.(we stayed an hour after the shop closed finishing up on my ride, but we didn't get the wires just how i wanted them to look when i fold down the back seat. |

Post Number: 1083 Registered: Jul-05 | I know d post nos were close but now we've past it by 10 which is pretty good considering d stupid 'my crap's broken thread' just next 2 us is 6mths old & we done ours in roughly 10 days ...hehehe U know i think u should keep that 10" until @ least until end o next mth - get full use out of it & make ppl's eyes pop when u show em 1 10 !!! Sorta reminds me of a few yrs back ,but home stereo i'm talking about - i had a 10" BECKER SUB & i built this small say 10x14x20 ported 1.5" hole box outta scrap GROOVE PLY & i powered it on 1 channel of that Pioneer amp i was telling u about & had 4 cheap tweeters on d other channel . Placed it in a corner under a table & when i fired that sucker up everybody thought i honestly had 2 12s ! & man it played loud & clear .......hmmm i think i may have that old box somewhere still ... |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1085 Registered: Jul-05 | I think we should let this thread remain until Sunday cause we don't wanna be messing every so often with a new thread . We'll give Chaucey d honor of creating a new 1 then - lol back in d 90's i 1st got 2 hear a pair of 10" Bazookas & man did that leave an impression on me , such loud/crystal clear sound out of 2 small tubes in a Mazda 323 sedan i can still see/hear it in my mind . So strange though these guys on this forum put it on d bad section . Maybe they have gone bad since then !? Do u guys luv d band Coldplay like i do ?????? |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1088 Registered: Jul-05 | I was young too when i heard that bazooka . from d time i heard d song 'Trouble' followed by 'yellow' - i was hooked ,i downloaded their 1st album immediately . Then when i heard/saw d video for 'clock' then 'the scientist' again dl their 2nd album . Everysingle song on their 2 albums are fabulous & sometimes i just drag both albums into my Musicmatch & let er play loud on this PC . Surprisingly i haven't go their 3rd album (the live 1) or their latest as yet . Hoping not 2 do like last night & stay late here - lol . |

Got my ride a new battery 2day - it originally came with a 375amp battery but i ended up with a 825amp battery ! Did u know there are 'left/right side' batteries !? some have the + pole on 1 end & vice versa , so the only battery that had the pole on the end that would fit my car without changing the cable location was that big 1 . But hey i'm gonna put a 'lil' music in it so that should be better overall . |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2101 Registered: Aug-05 | i just put up an old-school US Amps banner in my room. i wish they would have never been bought out, or i would have gotten one of their amps for my bass amp. on second thought, D-bo said that they are one of only a few models(of high end brands) that have problems when mounted to boxes, so i guess me and the A6 were destined to be. i turned on the Sub-Sonic Filter today(which is 25hz) so as not to blow the sub out d box. lol or a least to help filter out the freq. in which my box is tuned above. haha, i'm starting to catch on to your "d" for "the". it is way faster than typing "the". lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2102 Registered: Aug-05 | idk, it seems like a lot of the new threads aren't very interesting to me. and it also seems like they aren't as many members on as their used to be. BUT I STILL GOT MY BUD ROVIN! lol knaw, i am just chillin, i was on the DLS website for a bit, and then on the DD audio website, and then i come back here to check posts. i guess i am not up to my usual # of posts per night! lol |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1164 Registered: Jul-05 | Yea - i'm catching up 2 ya , usually when u score 2 pts i score 1 .lol There r some guys on just posting basically different variations of d same @#$%! thing they want 2 find out . I saw about 3 or 4 thread asking d same ? question with a twist . Here's a thought - even though my new MB amp is rated 1000 @ 1ohm .....do u think it would sufficiently push 2 12s SE subs well enough ??? Usually i rec 2 ppl to buy a 1200wrms amp if their subs is rated @ 1000wrms ..... I'm toying with this idea cause my bro wants 2 SE but i could as well order 2 for myself but i do like d 12s IDQ too ! ........ |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2109 Registered: Aug-05 | hmmmm.... IF.....i were you........i would get the IDQ's simply b/c your amp won't have to work any harder than it already has to at 1 ohm. besides that, i don't think you understand how loud 2 12" IDQ's are going to be in your AD Wagon(essentially a hatchback, or an SUV that is lower to the ground). lol i heard 2 ID 10's in a 4-door chevy truck 2 days ago, and it was slammin!!!! and we are only talking like 500-800watts RMS. and i know he didn't have even 500w b/c he only had 1 amp in the truck running everything and he was a cheap redneck. lol you will have the IDQ's, and 1000 watts RMS!!!! |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1166 Registered: Jul-05 | I think we both knew i would b picking 2 IDQs but hearing freaking RE RE RE RE RE RE RE RE RE RE RE RE RE every single day .... i guess it was pounded into my brain - lol . I just needed reassuring - so i made u pick d max & u made me pick d Q ...so we're even ...... Judging from d pics of a 12 IDQ - don't u find they look like pretty normal subs ? i mean nothing extra ordinary 2 talk about ....... My bro has a "Power Craptastik" (d term Glass uses) 2100D rated 2 do 2000wrms @ 1ohm . So i guestimate it does 3/4 of that =1500wrms so thats Y i rec 2 12s SE for him . PA amps r not as bad as Glass said though ,maybe underrated yes but not terrible by any means . That Hu i installed on Sunday is a few times better than d stock unit & i like it , plays pretty loud without distorting . Hmmmmm - imagine when i get my Inf REFs & that Alpine amp . |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2120 Registered: Aug-05 | they don't look like anything out of d ordinary. hehe but it doesn't matter how they look, it's how they......... i'm not sure if it is b/c they haven't revamped them(like calling them IDQ V.3's instead of V.2's) but i don't think you will have any disappointment once you hear them. they will sound great, and any 2 subs with 1000wRMS will get LOUD! lol |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2129 Registered: Aug-05 | i'm here now. i had to work a 10hour day today. 10-8. all i think about at work is coming home and getting on Ecoustics. lol glad to be back from such a long absence. i finally got my alt on. i will post pics of it and the amp tomorrow. it is loud as %*^#! and my lights still dim but you would have to be @nal(like me) to notice it, but it does 14.5V at idle, and 14.2 with my system full blast, so no worries. but i need to get an Optima battery(still have the stock one), but my idle doesn't drop, and the car doesn't feel like it is lacking power. i can run everything full tilt, and have no problems, but before, if i had just the engine on, and i turned up my system, the car would almost stall. lol |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1209 Registered: Jul-05 | Did u know that d 12" IDQ sub is ONLY 350 WRMS !!!!!!!! I found that out yesterday when i looked @ d pdf files on their website . Now my Pio subs r 400wrms so i don't want to go down but rather up to make max use of my MB amp . So i'm now seriously considering 2 Alpine 12s type ! 500wrms 4ohm dvc model . Pretty cheap too $117 each which is an added bonus - only damn thing is s/h 4 each sub is $25 .... ouch ! http://www.techronics.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&product_id=2167&a ff=45847 |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2136 Registered: Aug-05 | Image Dynamics Website is frustrating me. none of their RMS ratings match up from the display up top, to the chart on the bottom, to the PDF files. the ID has more Xmax than the IDQ. but handles less power, and has a lower sensitivity. i'm puzzled. |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1279 Registered: Jul-05 | Hear this opinion from my bro's good friend who is into car audio about 12yrs now , he's migrated to Canada a few yrs now but we keep in contact i asked him about those 2 Alpine 1242D cause i respect his opinion alot but how strange/varied ppl choices are ! : " hey rovin, i checked it out, the alpine subs, they are ok but do u think you will like that bass? I am not sure. We spoke about the Image Dynamics the other day...my preference is with the IDMAX12D4 instead of the Apline. I have heard the IDMAx and it is awsome. you know why are you only thinking of 2 subs? why not do one sub instead, and buy a good sub thet will "get on". I told you in the last email try the Kicker L7, they are very good and slam, Kicker selld them in the factory made box and trust me on this one that one L7 will kill your 2 alpine 12's. I went to a show and this guy with one(1) Kicker L7 did 151 dB in a honda civic hatchback. So imagine what it will do in your hatch. It was the L7 in the factory made box. just something to think about. why don't u check out some prices and get back to me tomorrow. Oh the 1000watt amp you are getting is just perfect for the IDMAX as well." i never mentioned IDmax to him but he likes em alot.... |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2312 Registered: Aug-05 | haha, me too. not sure how he can recommend the IDMAX and then the L7 though. lol |
