Hello

[Wabatuckian]

My name is Josh.

When I was in my teens and early 20s (early to late '90s) I was into car audio. After I sold my CJ5 (4x12" subs in the bed, 4x tweeters, 2x 6x9s) I didn't bother building another system and my interests drifted to other things.

Recently, I bought the floor display of an entry-level audio brand from a local store that's closing its doors.

Though entry-level, this stuff is still capable of sounding good, and being old-school, the voice coils etc are lighter and seem more responsive than a lot of new stuff.

I'm not going for SPLs or hair tricks these days. I have kids and am after good sound and education. If this phone app is to be believed, I'm running around 80dB. Though I don't completely trust the app, it sounds close to that.

For a living, I make custom sights and triggers and things like that for the Mosin-Nagant rifle, and I plan to branch out into other surplus rifles this year as I've been doing the Mosin since 2011. It's about time.

In addition to car audio, I enjoy fishing -- particularly bass fishing, building and shooting the 1911 pistol, and black powder and rimfire rifles.

Regards,

Josh

Also, it looks like the forum found an avatar from one of my gun forum accounts. I've not yet uploaded one here.

Welcome aboard. Phone SPL apps are completely unreliable.

Post pics of your install in the build log section.

I was afraid of that.

The build is nothing to be overly proud of. Starter components from the '90s salvaged from the attached.

When I get everything positioned, I'll likely start buying newer stuff where needed. Then I might just post pics.

Josh
