  1. Some are noisier than others, they are measured in Sones.
  2. Another option is to mount a fart fan on the ceiling vented to another room & a vent for fresh air to enter the closet.
  3. Maybe Santa will bring me a set of 402's this year, i have been very good.
  4. I would use whatever you have laying around. just make a T pattern with the brace to stiffen it up. Use PL premium for adhesive, stuff sticks to just about anything. Wear some gloves and disposable clothes, the stuff does not come off.
  5. Does the piss stain on the side of the cabinet come as standard equipment you think ?
  6. Most people have never heard a horn loaded subwoofer to compare the difference in sound. If you A/b using the same driver one horn loaded one direct radiating all but the deaf will hear the difference. The woofer produces the most distortion of all the drivers as it has the most movement. I cant see how something called the ultimate horn loaded system does not use all horns.

    CORN

    I just leave some of the stalk on and use it to hold the cob, roll it on a stick of butter and add a little salt.
  8. You did the right thing Joe, the guy deserves a bad rating and a kick in the sack. Why people don't live up to their word is beyond me, it just makes you look like an a$$ and hurts the seller in the long run.
  9. Fan specs are based on free air spin, some are louder once placed in pressure or vacuum. I recommend using fluid dynamic bearing models, they always seem to be quieter with equal rpm compared to ball bearing & sleeve bearing models. If these fans are 12 volt rated i recommend Arctic or if you can spring some extra cash Noctura makes excellent products. Just basing this on years of computer building experience and wanting quiet computers. These brands make many sizes to fit most applications.
  10. I know nothing about this stuff so I should stay out of it, but if I am close maybe Thaddeus can explain or someone else. But if you are going to build your own hard drive couldn't you have a proprietary(<-that might not be the right word I want to use) drive let say 3-4 tb, then just add 2-3 tb external drives as needed, think there is some sort of Raid that you can use to mirror what is on the smaller drives in the event that one crashes will mirror them on the proprietary(<-again may not be the right word) drive for back up. I have only read bits and pieces of this thread so I don't understand your reason for the 2 extra external hard drives. If I am way off just yell at me to go away, You can mirror a drive but you would need to re-install windows witch is not a huge deal. The extra hard drives are for increasing storage capacity. RAID is a good option but not needed, i like RAID 5 myself but you need at least 3 drives.
  11. My friend gary had a set of decorator K-horns he picked up cheap with 70's style formica in the ugliest pattern you ever saw, sounded decent though. These look like they could be gems with a little veneer & some TLC. $2000 is steep but maybe he will come down if you flash some cash.
  12. Western Digital makes good drives, never had a failure and 2 are over 10 years old. Glad you found something to get you by.
  13. You may get close but a perfect one's not gonna happen. Even batches of paint can be a mixmatch. If you want perfection have them all painted at once or go to your local Valspar dealer & tell them what you want. Last time i picked up i had to buy a whole gallon, forgot what i paid but was around $100. Used a roller & wetsanded until it was a close match. Another option is to take them to your local Maaco or budget body shop with one of your speakers and have them match as close as they can.
  14. Your mail wasn't spam. Send more pictures.
  15. Never thought about the mail server, i guess that can be another possibility. I received a warning from Yahoo recently too telling me my account may have been compromised and changed my password to a more secure one figuring it would be safer but who knows. Nothing valuable on my account anyways, why people bother i don't know.
  16. Just add a hard drive to your new computer and transfer your files from your old system to the new one and make things easy. You wont need to reinstall windows if the computer hard drive is intact & working. Just plug in your new drive and enjoy the extra space you created.
  17. Working on a scan right now. Never sent a E-mail to multiple recipients.
  18. The E-mail was sent out to multiple contacts stored in my account including members here. I was contacted by one of the recipients with a copy of the spam sent.
  19. The 16 Hz pipe organ you hear is really the harmonics from the note IE 32 Hz, 64 Hz. There is a mathmatical equation for this available on the web somewhere if somebody wants more information on the subject.
  20. Somebody childish pr1ck with nothing better to do hacked my E-mail account, if you received a spam E-mail from me please disregard.
  21. I have all my current files backed up now on a 1tb external, I keep it tucked away so it doesnt get dropped etc..., I also plan to get another backup so i can have 3 file locations just incase What exactly is a mirror drive ?? I assume it is an exact copy of the main drive, Including OS etc...Correct ?? My concern is loosing pics and music, I dont have to have a copy of the operating system do I in order to use my external drive and restore music or pics on another cpu ?? Mirror copy is another copy of your hard drive implemented through RAID software or hardware. Raid 1 or 5 is most popular but there are other options as well. Use google for more information, theres too much information to list here.
  22. That reminds me, i need to build another THT.
  23. If you plan on downloading more stuff maybe its best to get a bigger drive so you don't run out of space. Hard drives are not expensive until it crashes and you lose all your valuables. If you mirror your drives it would be much safer.
  24. Plywood boxes are the way to go, plastic wrap & some polystyrene sheets for protection and you're good to go.
