I'm not set on a Type R; Looking at the specs for a 12 it says 500w RMS; I thought 400 would be plenty, especially with a ported box.

I'm going to take the plunge soon and finally get my system installed. I plan on getting a Type R and it will be fed by a Mcintosh amp pushing 400w. My setup will be geared toward SQ w/ a Denonford HU and Type X comps. I listen to all genres of music. Is there a good reason for me to go with the...

The MCC404 is either 100x4 or 400x2. You could also do 100x2 + 400x1; each set of channels that you bridge produces 400 watts, but the THD still stays at .005%. Just from what I've read nferra has the right idea. Scrap the rear fill and put the power to the fronts. Another option is to put 100x2...

Metallica + booze + youth = some of the best music ever Metallica + sobriety + age = terrible music Please don't anyone lecture me about "growing with" the band. Their new stuff is a travesty and does nothing but take away from the legacy of the greatness that WAS Metallica. Rarely can a band...

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13165201/ Every time there is a show on the Discovery, History, or TLC channels I am there. The only time watching volcanoes sucks is when Tommy Lee Jones is involved. He outran a building. How could you not evacuate when you live on one and it's going to erupt?

WHAT? Knuckles in my back?

I got roadrunner and found out that AOL Broadband comes with it free; you just have to ask Time Warner to sign you up. AOL's security suite is run by McAfee and is updated every time you sign on; it's free and is part of the AOL software. It's the best deal I know of.

Please hit me up with a PM if interested. I'll give you the dimensions of my trunk and it will be for a 12" Type R dual 4 ohm. I'll be needing some recommendations and advice as well so I'm looking for experienced box builders. Is JMac still out there?

This is all physical stuff; don't forget the mental aspect too. Do something like put a sign with skull and crossbones on it on his door and write "I'm coming for you." That will scare the piss out of him and he'll think about you as much as you thought about him. Also, don't let it be a...

I have an 870 Wingmaster 12 ga that I use for duck and goose hunting. It's **** near the perfect bird gun. Here's what you do. You have to unscrew the cap that holds the barrell on. Underneath the cap you will should see a metal piece that looks almost like a set of crosshairs; this is pushed...

Perhaps the Historical Cost principle. If the obligation is $100,000 now and that is amortized over the next 20 years, that would be $5,000 per year. The recorded amount is net of the discount rate, not the historical cost. I also think depreciation is thrown in there as a diversion. I could be...

Drakkar Sanchez?

SQ = Sound Quality SPL = Sound Pressure Level Systems are usually geared toward one or the other. SQ is self-explanatory; SPL is to get high levels (decibels, or Db) of bass. The panacea of car audio is to achieve both, commonly called SQL. Try doing a search and you will find gads of threads...
