    Or someone organized the spiders, making it an inside job. Who do we know that has spider communication abilities?

    Lark, you post as if you know all about the sizing and placement of mars style football, which according to your post you do not!

    While uncovering this certain specimen, Astronaut Jones was very surprised to find out that in fact appeared to be a smaller scaled american football field was actually a native martian playing field.

    Lots of info in that post, thank you.
    This install will be going into a 2007 honda accord (99% sure, but plans might change). I have been planning to sacrifice my backseat for bass (i’m a pretty big guy (6’7″), and there is no way i’m fitting someone behind me anyways in that car), so if the box takes up more space than the trunk is capable of comfortably fitting, there is a backseat to use as well.

    I looked into the bandpass boxes, and they look pretty difficult to design/build but they apparently have more potential for dB output. Can you tell me more about these types of boxes and if they’ll help me out in the quest for decibels? And you said 7th order bandpass, how does that sort of box work?

    So, I’ll probably be going with 4 12″ JL W6 or W7 or some other well preforming subwoofer. Where would I start with the box? I couldn’t find stuff other than just calculators for boxes online, I’d rather learn how they work and how to make them. Could you suggest some sort of resource I could start looking into to get the skills to construct an enclosure proper so I wouldn’t waste any money or time building stuff that doesn’t work?

    First off, I’d like to thank you for being so helpful, Bryan.

    Yeah, my goal is to be loud. The reason I chose the warhorse is it’s price per watt at the moment. It’s being sold for 1500-2300, depending where you look. It’s also nice because you can use the dial on the amplifier to reduce the % of the RMS it puts out, so it could be paired with a lower power speaker.

    I did look through some other stuff, my initial plan was going with 1 Rockford 2500 1bd, run to 2 15″ or 18″. FI Audio Subwoofers

    Now, you said i could get a lot more with 4 12″, is that just because there are more speakers? How would I know what’s going to be louder? It’s depending on box tuning and stuff like that right? And I’d think 2 18″s would be louder than 2 12″s at like 40 hz, am I right or wrong in thinking that?

    The stuff you’ve been telling me has been great. I’d rather get all the info I can before I buy anything to get started.

    Now you have me worried. I’m going to be looking behind me wherever I go. I never could have imagined such a dangerous weapon could exist

    Haha I love seeing math jokes, always get a good chuckle out of it.

    The kicker warhorse is the amp I have my eyes on, I’ve got the money saved up for it and it’s one of the better deals I’ve found. I thought about 2 2500 watt Rockford amps, but they’d run about 2500-3000.

    My first car I had 2 pioneer 10’s in it, and they just didn’t do much for me, sure they were loud but they dropped off in the low notes more than i wanted them to. I got a new setup with a Kicker 15″ Solo Baric, with 1500 watts, and it’s getting better, but I wanna go big for my new setup. Lots of the rap and some electronic stuff I listen to pushes 45hz or lower. I can always just up the setup to 15″, lots of possibilities. Would it close the low-mid gap much if I went with 15’s? I’ve got a new setup for door panels that would be coming after the Bass install. I have a lot of time to decide so I’m going to do as much research as I can.

    I downloaded the warhorse manual and they suggest 7 12volt batteries and 2 200 amp alternators to power the amp to the max.

    I wish we could even see guns in Canada. Honestly, I’ve looked around at every shop that is a “millitary supply”, a weapons store, and all of the other stupid names they give, and the only kinds of guns are cheap chinese CO2 handguns, and little black hunting rifles to big black hunting rifles, and maybe the odd crossbow. I see all these guns in the movies but i honestly have never seen anything in real life. Then getting a license is a joke because it’s like a multiple choice test, just like our drivers license, motorcycle, boat, Liquor serving license, probably every government test in canada is multiple choice.

    It might just be because I live in a mountainous area that there are all these hunting type guns though.

    The initial post on this thread was really funny as well, kudos to that guy

    Apparently it was a high density EMR beam shot into the sky as a test from a research facility that does work with high energy shit.

    Usa has one in alaska called HARRP. Look it up, bunch of conspiracy bullshit, but it can truthfully change global weather patterns and tear up the fucking atmosphere. Also could split the world in two with the proper resonance frequency 😀 But that is a whole other discussion!

    I’m not totally sure yet, it all depends where I end up going to university/post secondary school. I was told I could be offered a job in my hometown, but the odds of me staying here are very little.

    So, it could be a possibility, but right now I would say no. I just thought it could bring up a few good points for discussion.

    All EM waves that do not travel through a medium such as air/water have the same particle/group velocity, in the modulation or envelope of the wave, which basically means the velocity of the parts of the waves that remain in the same place. The phase velocity is what exceeds the speed of light, but no information is on the waves in this part.

    Wikipedia has an article that you could read that would explain it more:
