yeah i was looking into like a "scooby doo" style van with a bed and full surround in the back with seperate 2ch up front

Posted videos of the install for the screen yesterday, also the HD radio got put on the wrong train (according to ups, ive never seen the package tracker admit a mistake but it actually says it was on the wrong train so HD should be installed on the 27th)
still waiting on the CAP thou... going to email that guy again

I essentially want to do the same style setup. I got your message about a crossover too. What if the amps running the speakers had a built in cossover? i was thinking about taking out a 4 channel and just using one to power front and back mids and then run the tweeters off the same line as the mids but just put a passive crossover (I think that's it, I'm still reading) before it. I'd still end up splitting the sub line though and if I ran one 4 ch for the other speakers I'd have to be able to put the front and rear lines in or else I'd just have an extra spot not used from my sound card. Then I might as well just get a more basic sound card. I'd just be down grading alot to do all that. You know what I mean?

Hey i saw ur glare problem. U might want to mess with the grey overlay that the LSX VOID skin has on its Menu_empty image. Check out my worklog it has info on messing with it. Just an option :-D

eric_barcus · 05-26-2008, 04:59 PM

thanks man i was reading over your log, and ill have to get the paint.net loaded in my virtual machine

Bxsteez · 05-26-2008, 05:00 PM

cool keep us posted. I can't wait to see the finished product. Ur RR is running way faster than mine. I think i have a bug on my system though.

Ethan537 · 05-26-2008, 09:09 PM

Are you using the internal sound?

yes right now i am using the internal my next project will use an external, ive been pleased with the internal card not bad quality at all

Bxsteez · 05-26-2008, 09:48 PM

Cool i'm far away from installing it in my car as it stands now. I'll have a test setup at the end of the week so the hardware should be getting together pretty soon.

By the way did u ever get freefone to work for you?

eric_barcus · 05-26-2008, 10:25 PM

no freefone for me its a verizon phone i hear thats why.. my contract is up in sept, yet another reason to switch

Bxsteez · 05-26-2008, 10:34 PM

I have a gsm phone and it still doesn't work and there is much support for it. I've asked like 100x if it works on PPC phones but i don't really get an answer from anyone

Bxsteez · 05-27-2008, 03:32 PM

Have you thought about using centrafuse?? That apparently has everything working. I tested out RC3 last night and i must say its pretty nice. I don't like how my RR is so limited

eric_barcus · 05-27-2008, 03:43 PM

havent looked into that yet, no reason to yet
