I'm tentative, itching to do some stuff on the weekends though once it gets nice enough so it's hard to commit.

... btw any chance theres going to be any mp3car.com window stickers available? the last one i had got washed out in the trunk (i lost everything in the trunk due to a leaking rear window)

That seemed to have the desired effect! O.K. , Caddy it is. I'll have fresh horn trumpets, and 1Tb HD/DVD-RW/4-port USB hub in the armrest, and maybe my new CPU running the show.

As for window stickers, I PMed Heather and we'll see.

That will work as my car is sticker less, I could put another one on there.

I'm hard core. I usually arrive around 11-noon and don't leave till the park ranger kicks us out at sunset!

Hey there has to be something in the trunk

things are looking good for the install... though the 12v 2.5~4 amp ac to dc power supply im using is kicking out... i think i added a little bit too much stuff to my car computer for this dinky old skool power supply to handle-- it powers up for a split second, then, click the surge protector on the ac power supply kicks out ~_~ im going to revert back to AC power supply for testing/installation purposes... hopefully i havnt exceeded the m2atx's 160W

either way, even if i dont get it powered up, ill show up with the rig to show off the install... might hafta resort to the m4

boomintrac... what did you do with all the bodies from last year??? ^_^ LOL!!! j/k

boomintrac · 04-07-2009, 12:12 AM

They will still be there, but I need to find a place to put a few more amps and a bigger woofer.

I'm trying to make plans so I can come to the meet. I have a wedding on the Saturday and will try and get the grandparents to watch my son for the day so I can make the drive up there. I'm about 4.5 hours away right now but the weeding puts me 2 hours closer.

boomintrac · 04-07-2009, 10:33 AM

Its is for quality, I need a more dynamic punch and my current woofer dosent like any more then 100 watts

The allure of the dark side will make you say anything for it.

MindDrive · 04-07-2009, 01:10 PM

it all starts out with "a little more" and then before you realize it.... youre knocking down dishes out of your cabinets and your neighbors hate you when you come home

i started my audio adiction with a mere 45 watt amplifier... now im planning 4-5 thousand watts ^_^

come to the dark side!!!!

I started mine with 4 speakers, now my hooptie has 17 cones, 5.1 surround sound and 2200 watts.

You will be assimilated.

I live in the area..... sorta. (Oswego)

I won't be able to make this one, but maybe next time guys. Sounds like a good place to get ideas and see other carpc geek's rigs.

Have fun out there, and watch out for the bucketheads.
