    Yes low tones, but not sure if they're lower than the ones I am hitting.

    There's not much of this stuff made, as it's homemade and on the side...
    7 bottles are my normal go-to, the other three are flavors I haven't tried yet.
    He grows his own peppers in much better weather for it than we have here. The East Coast can get some tree-like pepper plants.

    It's tough to get the real low tones out of 8s. 8s are more for kick drum type base not FloRida type base.

    What about this kind of bass?

    Surprisingly it hits most rap bass notes but lacks in EDM type stuffs :mad:

    The real bottom end of those notes are actually pretty low, but 8s should be able to keep up reasonably well with that.

    You say you also replaced your amp. Are you sure you have your low frequency set right? I'm assuming there's some kind of gain/x-over setting on the amp.

    That's what I was wondering. If the low pass or something was set wrong.

    Or maybe even something on the deck isnt tuned right? I love music but havent devoted enough time to learning how to tune the equipment to maximize the experience

    That could absolutely be it. Did you install or did you have it installed?

    I put the amp in, but the guy at the stereo shop tuned it. Was thinking about going back to have him try again but hes given me a lot of free time in talking about what options he had for my needs. Also tuned it for free. So I figured I'd see if I could trade beer for time with someone who knew what they were doing on here.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Toying with the idea. But I need the snow to melt so I can do some measuring on it to decide for sure.

    We've got a 2500gal tank for our two wells. That, the pressure and softener system all came with the house, but here they are:

    We've got the same ground tent... It's awesome. We've had it for 4 or 5 years. Have done lots of camping in it. Still good as new.

    You'll want to buy the rain fly.

    One draw back... It's really tall. It's great for changing clothes in and getting around in... Not so good for keeping it warm inside when it gets later in the season.

    Nice! I'm definitely looking forward to putting it through it's paces this summer.

    I have the rain fly saved to my Amazon cart. I'll buy it if I feel as if I need it.

    I should okay if I sleep in it during Winter. I've got a -30° bag for Winter usage and 25° bag for Summer usage.

    You'll be good to go. Don't get me wrong, the tent (with a good bag) stays warm enough to sleep in.... It's just the fracking cold when you get out of the bag in the cold morning. Lol

    It's a badass tent though. Everyone we have ever camped with is amazed at how easily it sets up and takes down.

    Some progress was made today!

    Still need to run the air line, but the solenoid is in!

    20190409_164532.jpg

    The last switch should be delivered tomorrow.
    I didn't realize the color difference would be so great, but it's ok I guess.
    20190409_172740.jpg


    Btw, only the left two switches will be ran to anything until my circuit breaker gets here, and I wire up my fuse box and relays.
