New member from St. Louis MO

[383BEE]

New to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself. I'm Dave, I've been into car audio off and on since the mid 90's.

I have alot of knowledge to share and just as much to learn. Up until now I've been kind of a bass head but have been leaning towards Sq here lately which I don't know as much about. I will be posting a build log in the near future and any help, advice or even criticism would be much appreciated.

Welcome aboard. Be prepared for a lot of trolling and faggotry, but we have fun and there's a handful of guys who actually know their stuff.

Welcome from a fellow St Louis guy. What part are you from?

Nice to see a member in the Lou. I live in O'Fallon, about 25 miles away.

And those "handfulls" are really all you'll need here. Most of my advice/help has come from the same 5-10 people. You'll fit in fine.

Welcome! You can read in the FAQs that Cardinal fans are strictly prohibited.

Thanks for the welcome! I'm actually outside St. Louis in Lake St. Louis close to LongThrow. I find that most people are more familiar with the closest major city. Btw If cards fans are not allowed I'm in trouble.

Yeah, you're like a couple miles from me. When someone asks where I live, I always say St. louis, and when they get technical I tell them its the greater area of stl, called O'Fallon.

Get started on that build log, maybe we can help each other out?

Haven't started the build log yet as I'm still gathering everything I need for the build/selling my old stuff to finance it all.

Understandable. Do you have experience in building boxes?

Making your city look bad? How so?

You're only a 30 mile drive from me. PM me some quotes for box building.

Lol it's a joke. All depends on what you want and timeframe. I'm busy so most the time I'll just set up my tools and so them all at once when I get a day off with no kids

Timeframe as long as it takes to do a quality build.

Box for my kickers, I was told 1.90 cf per sub and 32hz would be a good tuning start point. 3/4 MDF, carpet isn't that big of a deal but would probably do aviation black.
