Pretty happy with things. Outboard amp for the JMlabs, nice plasma hanging on the wall, dual subs, good universal player and a respectable reciever for the price range. :)
Gunbei, Since Slappy is a huge of David Hasselhoff music, spending many hours listening to his autographed German Mini-Lp Cd box set. And since Slappy is such a Knight Rider with the ladies. Let me guess.... Gunbie is it "KITT"? Slappy bet you haven't thought of this for you car?
Thanks! I totally dig that cabinet. the last open-air glass rack i had collected dust like dahmer collected body parts. ROFL What?... too soon?
anyways,
Lets see, on the stang, I got K&N cold air intake, and an x-pipe with straights and chrome tips. A lot of appearance mods since they are so cheap. Got the 8inch black attena, the fender and rear 281 badges, i had the fender ones custom made with "support our troops" beneath it. Also a couple interior dressup items. 9mm holow point bullit door locks etc, etc.
i want to get a new plentum and throttlebody and a chip tuner as well. that is about all i can do without voiding the warranty. (thank god the chip tuners can put the stock tune back in)
I also plan to get some new rims. like the ones on there but with gloss black, 17 x 9 in the front and 17 x 10.5 deep dish in the rear, as well as a set of racing springs which will lower the car about 1 - 1.25 inches and give it a slightly more aggressive stance.
Then i want to get rid of the stock stripes (stickers) and get a pair of silver 8 inch rally stripes painted from the chin of the front all the way to the bottom of the rear bumper. :)
System edited: I got my Dayton Audio isolation cones yersterday and got em in my system. With the new rack im kind of strapped on space so i cannot use em under my components, but i put a set beneath each subwoofer and under my speaker stands. Trying to decide if i like it. The Sub bass seems to have tightened up a bit, but the image seems a little blured. Then again, with the new rack in im not really sure which is the cause. Under the speakers, is that a bad place for isolation cones? I really dont have any experience with these.
System edited: Welp, i finally got my Denon POA-2800 back from the repair shop and put back into the system. Some loose solder connections on the power supply were causing a +5vdc offset. Good times. :) I also added a 1/2 meter pair of Audioquest copperhead interconnects from the Pre-outs on the AVR3805 to the POA2800. Im pretty happy with where this system is going. Still gonna be putting some upgrades in here and there, maybe some better cables and such, but i think im gonna live with this for a while before i do any major upgrades. Maybe some new surround speakers, but that is pretty low on the priority list as i do everything in stereo except for DVD movies. Got the new TV stand as well, it raised the TV about 7 inches and the EMI from the subwoofers and L/R channels no lonmger seems to be an issue, so i got both subs back in play. I will try to get some updated pics posted soon. :)
LOL Nope! Actually, i dont even need the magnets anymore! :) I got my new TV stand, just enough room for all my gear, i got both of my subwoofers back in the system, and withthe 7 inch increase in TV height im able to get the speakers AND subwofoers both closer to the TV without any trouble.
Denver Police Update Mr. Singh is still on the loose. However during the investigation Mr. Harry Woodcock, & his fiance Ms. Anita Dick have gone their seperate way's. Ms. Anita Dick, is now steadily dating Mr. Singh's cousin Mr. Amir Winkie....... the saga continues to unfold!
Slappy what are you up to with all those magnets, as your awefully quiet these days? Hope you aren't stuck to your magnets with that metal plate in your head, & can't get up to use your computer??? ;0)~
I ordered four sets of Dayton Audio Black Chrome Isolation Cones (16 total) Not sure the best place to put them so i figured i should pick up a bunch and put em under everything.
I plan on using 3 cones per unit, probably 3 under each subwoofer, 3 under the denon3805, 3 under the Denon2900, and 3 under the amplifier when i get it back from the repair shop. That leaves me 1 spare cone. Whoo hoo! Maybe i will throw it at somone.
I wasnt intending to get them, i was actually looking for some bucking magnets so i could shield my speakers since they interfere with my TV so i have to have them pretty far apart. Bought 10 magnets, 4x3.5oz, 4x6.5oz, and 2 13oz. I really wasnt sure of the size needed im figuring 1 3.5 per tweeter, 1 6.5 per woofer, and i plan to use the 13oz magnets on the subwoofers. This leaves me 4 magents, but since they are so cheap i thought i would grab some extras.
System edited: Updated, Replaced the Monster wire cpeaker cable with AudioQuest Type 6 speaker cable. Only have a few more monster cables to phaze out!

Thats too bad Nrchy, im sure your system is still bigger than mine though. LOL Been there done that buddy, not with the extent of gear that you own(ed), but thats a real stinger having to unload some excellent gear.
You know what i hated? selling my gear at excellent price (25 cents on the dollar) to get money as fast as possible and people low-balling me even more. Yah. Thanks asshole. Hope you enjoy f*cking me out of my shatteredd dreams. Sleep well motherf*cker, if i ever catch you in an ally im gonna beat the price i wanted out of you. LOL Time for some Ham-Hock-Hell!
just remember, things could always get worse, and im sure you will build yer system back up.... hopefully faster than i have been able to!
