I have a small fridge with an ice making compartment (door missing). Hows that?

I had a bass several year ago but recently replaced it with a viola.

jesus - she didn't ask for misfits to give HILLARIOUS sarky answers, answer the girls question or contribute somehow.
in fact i've noticed twin cam girl getting alot more grief then she deserves, and if some of you are trying to intimidate people for posting on certain topics for fear of been set upon, your doing a good job

point taken John, but i think she should be able to post about her interests here without being berated or being subject to snide comments, consistently.

Her interests seem to be frowned upon on boards.ie ... She should have taken up on that hint on her first thread "dya want a race" ... People on boards.ie dont share similar interests and as I said they most likely frown upon

I like to mod my car but to be honest I've never really been into the idea of getting a system. My Focus's standard speaker system can deffon me if I put it up all the way Plus some systems with the huge speakers in the boot (pimp my ride) are a waist of space imo

I think the reason people are being, uh, discouraging, is that this forum has thus far avoided the Max Power brigade, and whatever about the others here, I would prefer to keep it that way. (TBH I actually used to like Max Power, when those modders were on the frontier. They're sooo not anymore.)

If I want to discuss modded Glanza's with audio dump valves, I can go to CruiseIRL; if I want to be patronised by a bunch of know-it-alls, I can go to MotorNet; whereas if I want to talk to sensible people that are tolerant of intelligent (as against pack-rat) modding, I come here.

Long may it continue.

I have the crap radio that came with the car. I'm told one of the speakers in the back isn't working but I don't really care as I'm hardly likely to be sitting in the back of my own car while driving it. And I don't have any homies who own baseball caps either.

That's "Motors" TCG, not "Monstrosities". Try saying them out loud. See the difference there?

Never liked Bass myself, more of a Guinness man, but if it's good enough for An Taoiseach, then who am I to complain. I've just got a crappy blaupunkt cd player in mine, the VTEC in front of it provides enough sounds for me. I've got a Clarion system in tother car though which is pretty snazzy.

Ehm, I have all of their CD's including the US special import single of Cruel Summer. Am I banned?

TCG - I long for a car with a CD player but the three heaps of snot I currently have don't merit one and sure as eggs is eggs as soon as I fit one the frigger would blow its head gasket and I'm back to 2fm through a 4" door speaker.

I had a Prelude with nine speakers and a 6 cd changer once but then the kids wouldn't fit in the back so I bought a Mondeo - nuff said?

I have an '88 Merc 190 which if all goes to plan I will crash through a pile of old pallets and burn for fun some weekend soon - would you bother putting ICE in something that had different colour front seats? Thought not.

Drop around for tea sometime - I'd love a spin in your car though, and we can bring my new Prodigy CD....

I still don't get this ice thing, aircon is a lot more effective.

Hey twin-cam, are you going to the Tipp raceway to see the drifting today? All the usual suspects are there and the smell of tyresmoke will take days to fade.

Can you get your ancient Tayto sideways or does it just go in circles like all the others?

What you want is a sound system that is so powerful that even when it's turned off it can drain the battery flat.

except in this case it's true ...

I used to have a TS-WX10LPA Pioneer Subwoofer, I had a problem with that one so while I was getting it fised I put in a TS-WX206A Pioneer Bandpass Amplified Subwoofer. I have pioneer TS-H1702 speakers in the front and
pioneer TS-H683 speakers in the back. I have a Pioneer DEH-P7400MP head unit. I like to listen to my music on a decent system at home so why settle for a sh1 standard car system as I spend a lot of time in the car listening to music. So what if the chick who started this thread is into cars? Your lame replies aren't even funny.

That's a nice setup. I'm curious, did you find much difference in sound quality/power between the TS-WX10LPA and TS-WX206A. I know the cone is twice the size of the old one, and the amp is more powerful, but how does it sound? There are nice big air ducts on the 206A too compared to the small one on the 10LPA.

Cheers,

DC

I much prefer the newer one, the level is turned down more on the new one than on my original sub and it sounds so much better. This one gives out the same bass I want but doesn't have to work as hard so quality is so much better. I tried a bigger one at the time too, the pump, it was €100 more but I didn't think it sounded as good at all. It is a good bit bigger in the boot but I wouldn't go back.

Thanks for that. I thought it might be better. The carpeted enclosure would help too I'd say, and the bigger box would mean more resonance. I've been wondering about this sub for a while. It seems like the best compromise between good sound and boot space!
