Saukville huh? I grew up in Waukesha. and lived on the NW side of Milwaukee for a while. A lot of WI people on here. Good to see it.... Really no point to my post. Other than to say hey.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Thats good to know. Since diyma.com has no one on there from wisconsin.

I was born in texas but moved here when I was 10.

Lol thanks assassin I didn't wanna sound like a **** I'm glad u figured it out lol

hmmmmm. So maybe 2 15s LOL.

Nawww. I really want to get into 18s. I will let you know man. I gotta talk to my box builder and see if I can fit 2 18s or 1.

if u didnt notice a difference in sq between the jls an pa. then u have a problem on ur end. ive had all jl prodects an when i was a child i had thoses mofos. garbage. sounds like something is wrong, if u think one 18 will be louder than 2 12s. two 9512s at that on music there 3k each well more than ur 18 on 2500-4000 watts and it would be more cone area. im not saying buy my speakers but it sounds like there is a problem in ur builds

The box I had was built at a car audio shop in milwaukee. It was tuned to 37 hertz. And was 2 cubic feet per 12" subwoofer. I sold the 12W7 after about a month. Didn't care for it.

I think something must be wrong with me too. Because I seriously don't notice sound quality. I went best buy and tried all of there expensive head phones on FLAC recorded music. Never noticed a difference from my $50 sonys on 192kbps.

And when my dad was alive. He spent a bunch of money on a polk audio home audio. He has a harmon kardon receiver and all polk components and a 10".

I never hear the SQ from that home theater which I guess cost him 5k vs. my logitechs that cost me $350.

And recently I got some morel tweeter and threw away the extremely low end tweeters I had. Didn't notice a difference either.

They seem good. They have been in business since 1965 in milwaukee. And The guy josh is a friend of mine.

I either dont have very sensitive ears or I just don't pay close enough attention. HAHA

thats why i want to get into 18s

 

[jockhater2 10+ year member]

Ok. I would LOVE to go with a huge system. Cut out the rear seats and do a wall off or something. Or get 2 18s and a bunch of batts and dual alts.

But that kind of stuff will have to wait.

So. I am picking up FI BTL n2 on here.

Maybe in the future I will change it up again. I am only 21 and I gotta start helping my fiance' with her student loans.

But those 2 DC XLs for $750 is a crazy good deal. Those are 525 new. Each.

I was really tempted on that one.

Thank you guys for all of the great offers!
