I don't hate on poor people or cheap gear. Run what you can afford. Just quit making it out to be something it's not. Thats what I hate. Quit trying to be the expert on everything when clearly you're not. Talk less, listen more, learn $hit.

I've ran cheap junk, and I currently run somewhat expensive gear. I've been so poor that I had to eat at friends houses to get a meal, and I'm currently financially comfortable. I never hate someone based on their income or lack of it.

Quit trying to play the victim for being called out on your BS.

u the one making fun of my "$20 sub" cause u know i can't afford an atomic.. i would have loved to go up there and give him $2-$400 for subs but i'm unemployeed, my house need $50k worth of work that it'll never get and my step son has lung cancer and we're buying his meds cause he has no ins..

Where did I call you poor or say you couldn't afford something? You're continuing to try to play the victim and make me out to be the bad guy.

I was alluding to you being CHEAP, not poor. I had no idea you are poor, nor did I (or do I) give a crap about that.

If you're that **** poor and/or in debt, you have zero business buying any audio gear.

You've bought how many prefab boxes, subs, amps, and whatever else? Probably could have afforded a decent custom box, one nicer sub, and the same amp you have now, and been better off with less money in it.

Pay now or pay later. You see this constantly.

Stop the sob story.

You are missing the point.

I smell victim mentality.

I'd seriously save money and do research on how to invest wisely or learn a trade skill that you can do to make side cash with any kind of business. Make enough money first to support yourself, loved ones along with have 10k+ in reserve rainy day cash then spend on car audio. We all were poor once. You just need to get sick of it enough to the point where you make life changes in whatever way you can without complaining about your "individual circumstances" My life changes back then was was to give up audio completely for a few months and save up to start my own furniture business which was only about 300 dollars of licensing and fees which really got me out of the sh*t hole min wage job (which no one in California can survive off of) once my business starting getting some traction and good word of mouth.

Even now I try to save money just to afford another house to rent it out or open up a hit hipster restaurant where i can charge a lot for garbage fusion food and rake in the dough. Thats the reason why i haven't even replaced my windshield yet(its not that bad to get pulled over yet, even though a few more new cracks popped up)

No i'm not telling you to do something you cant physically do but there's a lot of other things online you can do as long as you learn proper skills. Never too late to teach an old dog new tricks.

Car audio, smokes and hobbies are not a NEED, they are a WANT, you need to distinguish between WANTS and NEEDS and devote a lot less time on wants and focus all your time on necessities if you are in such a situation. IDK why i need to tell this to someone who's almost double my age. This is Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs for reference. You are stuck on the 2nd to the bottom level of the pyramid and you are worrying about the top two which is the last thing you should worry about aka first world problems.

No need to tell an adult these things.

Gramps just sit back. You are in brand overload. Post on topics you can lend your hands on experience with. You don't have to jump on every thread and add your two cents if you don't have a valid reason too

I didn't say you was insulting it, but as always, you have no F'ing clue what you're talking about. As I said, it will have SIX of them in it, not four like you said. Same thing with you saying it was lifted on bags...it's not lifted, not on bags, and you haven't a clue what you're talking about.
If you quadrupled power since I last heard it, it still wouldn't be impressive. If you'd quit screwing around with prefab garbage boxes, you're car probably would sound decent. If you're still running prefab, it's not loud, won't ever be loud, and doesn't sound good being not loud.

Why the hostility?

Because you plug my name and that shop every chance you get, yet you don't know what your talking about or what my actual name is when you go visit that shop. My name is not Drew like you keep referring to me as.

Because you've been in audio for 20+ years (I wouldn't believe it if I didn't remember you from back in the day), and you still don't know crap about it.

Because someone could be asking what riding mower is best, and you'd reply with "My pioneer sub and cheapass amp sounds loud and is awesome!".

Because you want me to hook my Term-Lab up to your car, but you're only willing to pay me if I can guess your score before metering...and only if that guess is higher than your guess. WTF man? Seriously?

You've also managed to pi$$ off the owner of the shop. You're the worst kind of customer. Go up there, pester the $hit out of him, tell him why he should start selling a brand he doesn't, and don't buy $hit from him. I'd venture to guess if you go back up there again, you won't like his response to you.

Could you find a post written by anyone as haphazardly as yours... come on... slow down and be clear... you've been taking a beating on here for a week now... just lookin' out...

^This.

He's become another papermaker. Do I have to add another person to my ignore list?

Is it really that fucking hard to reread your comment before posting it?

"I'm lazy" or "It's just a typo" are lame excuses when EVERY post is gibberish.

Idiots frustrate me.

this thread turned out better than I thought //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Indeed. It's "mayhem"

No hablo espanol!

I took Spanish in school and don't remember much of it. Now, half the people I work with are Mexican and I wish I understood it. I bet they talk a lot of shit about me, and I can't understand it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I've got a Mazda 5 mini van, what do you all think would be a respectable score out of it?

Got a show in two weeks, hoping to be respectable...

depends on what you are doing.
