  1. The Klipsch grills come off so easily compared to the logitech..... My pm 4.1 came off nice, and left little damage on the rim. The logitech Z-560 my 2nd system compared to my z680 was soo hard to pull off. Its INSANE! The iFi is a thumbs up! If it was for me tho, I would have left the grill on for at least a year since its brand new. I still have my grill on for my z680. I want to leave it in a good condition since it came from the mainland and still gives me memories.

  2. Hey THXSubwoofers, I didn't know you lived in Hawaii. I was just there a week ago, visiting my family since I am originally from there. Oahu, that is. In Manoa, 5 minutes from Punahou School (where I attended). Where do you live?

    Oahu same.... I think we have a break in the rain for a little while...

  3. I don't know the news paper says one thing that yesterday was 41 days of rain, but the news on the TV says 40. Well... anyways im so tired right now, the T-Storm woke me up again. Damn its like major bass coming through the walls.[:'(] Today will either make it 42 days in the news paper, or 41 days in the TV.

    I'm going back to bed....

  4. Im so lucky to live on this nice island. [:)] Our news reporter just announced that this is the 40th day of rain. Some nice sunny island we are lol. The rain is also messing up the sewage system. About 48 million gallons went into the canal. I think the rain is just about going to end.[:D] I also think that we had hit the world record.

  5. If you compared the Sub12 vs the RW12, both to me are great subwoofers no matter what "line" it is. I don't know what so called negative things about the sub12. To me in my opinion, Klipsch did a great job in upgrading from the KSW-12.

  6. Nice job. Not very much excursion on that subwoofer though.

    You should see a Dynaudio 30W100 woofer in action - whoa!

    Yeah, that bass tester was just loud lol. Too bad the Klipsch RW-12 was struggling in playing a 1Hz test tone. I know for sure that it can play a 5 Hz test tone tho. I need to make another video clip.[;)]

  7. I have seen this guys video clip, who had an Dayton amp hooked up to JL W6v2 x2 12". I been wondering if its possible to make a cheaper solution than the Fathom series, but a smaller woofer driver. I been also wondering about a 10w7 in a sealed enclosure. Can that subwoofer perform just as good as any home audio subwoofer? Even tho I might not go with JL audio, I need some reviews about the sub amps from Dayton. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=300-806 or http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=300-808

  8. WHEW, now we're coming to an understanding.

    It's all about putting yourself in the OTHER guys shoes. Congratulations. The latest statements sound like mature frames of mind. Please tell your friends. You guys restore my faith.

    Michael

    opps I meant to say goto Indy and get two MTX Jackhammers and play near Colter's house [:P]

    and then release woodpeckers near his house.

    Thats one subwoofer I can't stand is the Jackhammer. I hate it, even tho its an 22" its a gimmick! Its good to see on with your own eyes any take some pictures[:D]. I wouldn't mine standing right next to one. Too bad they quit the 32" audiobahn LOL.

    Time to start on a new future project. [:)]

  10. "Other efforts to protect the commons are concerned with protecting our public lands and parks; air, airways, water, and waterways; habitat, species, and bio-diversity."

    Im sorry, but im to lazy to read lol. Ok, but i must say its way better than blasting it in a neighborhood. I guess the best place is at a sound comp. I wound say the freeway, but people need to concentrate.... while they drive.

  11. I read the article real fast, and I didn't find anything about noise canceling headphones... I never knew that the ipod can go up to 116 dB. Thats insane, my cd player can only go up to 108 dB with the db meter right against the headphone. People now days..... sue of dumb things. Which makes it funny because I was watching an old dvd today in class that was made back in 2003. I don't know if anyone remembers this incident about suing Mc. Donalds how they made the 2 girls fat.

  12. Ok THX, breathe in, breath out. Better?

    First, I agree with your point about there being no difference between obnoxious home systems and obnoxious auto systems.

    My point is simply this: If the sound emanating from anyone's property intrudes in the rights of another to enjoy QUIETUDE or his own music (at whatever level), that is irresponsible. You see, I don't want to have to turn my system up. First of all, music and movies contain moments of silence which are also part of the recording or soundtrack. So trying to overwhelm the intruding noise is a pointless excersize.

    Perhaps I'd like to enjoy my property by reading or silently meditating. If my neighbor in his home or a stranger driving by intrude on the peace of my home in any way (stereo, leaf blower, gunfire, Harley without muffler), I consider that as an act against me. Yes, I'll try to talk it out peacefully first. Then maybe call the cops.

    But what to do about the increasing onslaught from these massive car audio systems? Can't hardly pull em over and have a chat now, can I? Should I follow them home and have it out? I've tried having a sheriff issue speeding and 4-way stop violations since these same guys always seem to be in such a hurry. But that's only a temporary fix.

    Please understand where I am coming from. I had to move from my family farm home (owned by my great-grandparents since 1936) because Amish neighbors started a buggy factory and ran a diesel motor outdoors and unmuffled for 12 hours a day. The sheriff, zoning board, courts would not do anything to rectify the situation.

    So I've lost BIG TIME in the noise wars. It will not happen again.

    The 'threat' to violence toward you was meant in kidding. But I'm truly afraid of what I might do some night when some idiot comes blasting by here. Because I am crazy and I have a psychiatrist that will say so.

    So, lets all calm down, turn it down a bit, and just be a little bit caring about the other guy instead of trying to fight it out. It's an increasingly noisy world. With ipods, muzak and the like, we are facing a barrage of noise 24-7. Peace and Quiet is harder and harder to find in modern life.

    Please, can't we all just get along?

    Oh, and thanks for the backup/translation DrWho, you DO understand!

    Michael

    Im cool with that. [:D] But I hope cops don't start coming even in an open park with lots of airspace to play with. With no houses or nothing, just a play ground with a baseballfield, soccerfield etc..... Oh well, time to start a new project anyways for my next car. Its going to be full sound quality hopefully...[;)] SQ=luxury cars, SPL=Cars you don't care

  13. Lets just say this again a subwoofer is a subwoofer.....

    You obviously don't know what it's like to have a dedicated listening session - and you could use a little bit of music appreciation. Music happens during the rests and pauses in the music...to have something out of your control filling that space ruins the music experience. But you probably have no clue what I'm talking about because of the claim you just made.

    hmmm I don't know if its just me, but my neighbors don't care if I play my car system or my homesystem loud. And I don't care if they play there system loud as well.

    Again, it doesn't matter if you choose to waive your rights - and it's not like colter is being an annoying uptight prick. It seriously is annoying in his neighborhood.

    Think of it another way...would you get pissed off if kids ran up to your house and pounded on the walls and windows? I don't see how its any different if its sound waves or fists pounding on the house - it's the same annoying effect. Maybe I should just walk up to you on the street and blow an air horn in your ear....your argument leads to that conclusion.

    I hope im not misinterpret about the differences of a subwoofer.... Oh and another thing, how are you going to call the cops if they just past by [blasting the music] and not staying in your neighborhood. I hope you have good eyes looking at the licence plate.

  14. LOL

    First of all Colter is a tough guy he can sure get out of his house and walk to you and tell you in a very polite way to move out if you are parked in too close making NOISE. Now he has no right to punch you,you could tell him to F off and then his right would be to call the cops and have you removed and fined.

    If Colter beats you up using your own sub...then A you are very weak and own a tiny sub and B Colter is martial arts artist or a street brawler(not) and you naive to just sit in the car and wait for him to catch you. [:P]

    "Now he has no right to punch you, you could tell him to F off and then his right would be to call the cops and have you removed and fined." I agree with "the fine", but taking away your car is not necessary. But first if that law past about taking away your car, then I would have to totally agree with taking away your house to. Even tho it sounds crazy, its totally Biased! Its the same thing with noise pollution if you blast your home theater system. You can still get a fine no matter what. I have woken up while I was sleeping in the day, because my neighbor was blasting his home theater system. But I didn't call no cops, I just bared with it. Sounds don't really bother me at all, in fact I enjoy if someone has a louder system then mines[Y]. I always turn my system down "house or car" just to listen to the bass hits. Fine just call me the bass freak, everyone does....

    Now about my brothers car system and a little about his pc system back in the mainland. My brother hates SPL and always emphasizes me about his SQ. Well what about him, his system is louder than mines, but lacks a lot of bass? He only has an 8in stock woofer in his car and doesn't even turn it up half way. His system is louder than mines of course "with stock speakers" but its a good stock system. But he says that my system can shake the walls for only a single 12". Now my question is......Is his system still counted as Boom Boom? or is it just noise pollution? Now lets see about the pc system, my older bro said he has gotten complaints with his logitech system when his bass was all the way down. I think that would go in the home theater system section.

    I don't want to talk about customizing home audio equipment into a car. Because its still noise pollution if its loud.

    Anyways Colter im warning you for your safety where I live in Hawaii you better make sure you don't pick on the wrong guy. Because Hawaii is know for fighting for no Point of Reason. Trust me...., even I don't want to fight with the loco people. I used to have a bad temper. But I learned how to deal with it. Fighting used to be fun, but its just makes no sense at all. Ok fine if you want to call us the corrupt island, I don't care. Make the right choice.

    If I put a complaint also in that article about hometheater systems, then lets see what happens next. I think they have forgotten about hometheater subwoofers also. But I don't feel like putting a complaint because thats not where I live.

    This all adds up Biased for Car audio systems!

  15. Good for them.

    I'm a homeowner with 100% stone house that sits well back from the roadway. "I'm sick and tired of hearing the BOOM BOOM BOOM of these idiots travelling down my street. "

    "I purchased a home on 2 acres so I could play my HT as loud as I wanted without any chance of a neighbor being bothered by it. "

    Michael

    Still, I have to disagree with this statement. I can still make my house as boomy as I want, as a car that has an SPL system. I don't know why any one can be sick and tired of it. A Subwoofer is a subwoofer, just to let you know. [;)] I Don't mean to be harsh, but even if you get a JL w7, people could still double it to make it sound loud. "I wanted without any chance of a neighbor being bother by it" looks like some people also hate the loud noise coming out from your house.[;)] I DON'T MEAN YOUR HOUSE.

    The point is not what type of speaker can make what type of noise.

    The point is RIGHTS. You or no one else has the right to intrude on my right to enjoy my home. Period. If I want to play my music loud, that's my right- so long as I'm not bothering anyone else.

    If you want to play your car system loud on the open road, that's fine and dandy. BUT DON"T DO IT IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. If I can hear your car stereo inside my home with all my windows up, YOU ARE INTRUDING ON MY RIGHTS.

    I have arranged my living situation (the 2 acres and stone house) so as to not disturb others. Can you say the same for your music listening habits?

    Now do you agree or disagree with this statement?

    Do you want my address? You can come by here blasting your music and I'll drag you out of your freaking car and BEAT YOU WITH YOUR OWN SUBWOOFER!

    Michael

    No hold up! I don't want to start a fight, Im just trying to prove my point. Now, If I can hear your system in my car, than your intruding my rights is that what your saying? I don't have any problem, cause I got neighbors who blast there home systems and there car systems. IF IM NOT LOOKING OUTSIDE I CAN'T TELL IF ITS A CAR SYSTEM OR A HOMESYSTEM. Lets just say this again a subwoofer is a subwoofer..... And just to let you know if anyone plays there music loud and you can still hear it with your windows up, why don't you just turn up the volume. hmmm I don't know if its just me, but my neighbors don't care if I play my car system or my homesystem loud. And I don't care if they play there system loud as well.
