Az Geek Talk

anyone here an experienced Website/ecom builder? I need a basic site built where there is a general access space to download a file, and if they choose to subscribe, it will give them access to a private space to download other files..

Anyone got any experience in building such a thing? It's gotta be easy to maintain too.. Ideally it would also include a forum board of sorts.

 

@Zona Scout

Random AF! Joined you playing Gears. Hahaha

 

Yeah it's crazy

I'm knuckles deep in a Ben and Jerrys Ice cream quart

 

My mic's broke tho..

Typical Microsoft shit mic.. I'll get one tomorrow.

 

Too easy. No worries

 

Good shit with those 'nades

 

Haha. Damn these have been some good matches.

 

I played like shit last round. Hard to eat ice cream and play

 

Lol. I know those rounds. Half assing it. Enjoyin some grub.

 

Ha yeah it's been rough

 

That clutch!

 

Hell yeah!

 

Now we are kicking some ass

 

What are some good truck speakers? Not looking for anything expensive. 6.5" speakers. Probably coaxial though for the ride price I would put in a pair of components up front. H/u is kenwood kdc-x598. Will eventually have sundown sa 12 on 1k power or so.

 

What amp are you going to use and what's your budget? Personally I love focal. Hertz is good and ID makes a great set of mids and highs.

Are you wanting an Sq setup or just a street banger?

Also no coaxial up front. Component only. Having your tweeters mounted in the middle of your mid woofer is a big no. Unless all you want to do is be loud.

 

I don't know about an amp for the mids/highs. Amp I'm using for the subwoofer is an American bass VFL-4480.

That might be changing but I don't know yet. Both the set ups I had for it made the sub bottom out and I don't really need that much power in all reality.


I'm leaning more toward a SQ set up than street banger. I'm really loving the SQ home theater stuff at work so I have really found a new love for SQ. I would like to be able to rock out occasionally though. No window shattering necessary.

That's what I was thinking. Component up front and coaxial in the rear.

Budget is kind of open. The least expensive the better as I could do it sooner. I would like to try and keep it <$500 for speakers and amp if possible.

 

If you want to go full SQ I'd highly suggest going with a different sub/amp combo. Sundown is not known for SQ at all, they are bangers.

Also here is the other shitty part about SQ. It costs a hell of a lot more because you have to supply good speakers with good power. Good, CLEAN, power isn't cheap for the most part. Class D is not a good option for mid's/highs when building an SQ setup. I would only run Class A/B for mids/highs when building a SQ setup. Personally the class D amp for my sub in my truck is the first one I've ever used. It supplies power, but not a huge fan of it but I have serious space restrictions in the Tacoma and didn't have much of a choice. I had to get it due to the compact size.

For some good SQ mid's/highs with an amp you'll be pushing the $500 limit really fast. But it is possible to achieve a good clean sound up front on that budget.

You could run something like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HERTZ-DSK-1...ash=item5d5224e06e:g:tgQAAOSw2XFUbTfH&vxp=mtr

or even better: http://www.ebay.com/itm/CTX65CS-IMA...hash=item1c1bd69608:m:mSgGgEr8RplR3XeP88jkItw

And then of course there is the mecha of all mids/highs. I've heard one car that had these, it was literally sex to me.

and then run a good Class A/B amp to power them. I might be selling the amp out of my truck as I need more power for my mids and highs. I'll let you know if I decide to sell it. It would push the piss out of the ID or Hertz speakers I posted.

 

If you ever want to get together and talk stereo just let me know.

 

Last setup I had was an 800w Crunch amp and two Infinity 10" 1000w speakers in a bandpass box. Didn't sound all that bad, and people thought I had 12"s.

 

I want a good sounding system. I don't need high end expensive. Those speakers I feel are in a decent price range for what I'm looking to do.

I'm liking the sundown because it gets loud. I kniw loud and SQ don't match up really, but I want it to sound good when I don't wanna be loud. But when it's loud there's a decent amount of bass. The high end subs at work aren't loud enough for me.

What amp do you have? I have an idea for an amp, but unsure.

Thanks bud!
