Well now, that’s an important and unfortunately good point. Replacing the rears in my BMW did noticeably help, but it isn’t the same amp so I’m not sure the results would be similar.
Anyway, thanks for knowing so much useful stuff!
Sorry, yes, rear sides. And yes, that video suggested to me that most any 4” speaker would fit the space behind, but I wasn’t sure.
I have some extra BMW speaker pigtails that I bought when I did my M240i, so I hope I can make changing the rear-sides so easy that even a biologist can do it.
I need an idea of what might fit the rear speaker mounts size-wise. Is there a good amount of depth behind the mount that would allow for a large magnet, or is the space pretty limited? The Bavsounds seem significantly bigger, but not sure how much larger than that is possible. Any relevant...
I spend an inappropriate amount of time seeing what amusing plates I could get by the Virginia DMV. Of course, they reserve the right to remove your plate if you sneak one by and they figure it out.
Anyway, a couple of things that amused me:
Sharted is banned, but you can get around it using...
I’m hoping I can revive this thread as I’ll need a helmet soon, when the weather warms anyway. The preceding comments are helpful, but any advice based on some additional considerations would be appreciated.
From my motorcycle days, I remember how limiting the field of view could be on some...
Invoice and not sticker? I never found out what invoice was on mine. I was happy, however, being more than $6k under sticker.
Sounds like you did pretty well either way.
I’m in the process of covering the whole box in speaker fabric. I pulled the grills and am going to secure a piece of speaker fabric that’s finished with bias on the edges and held in place with a bit of hook-side of Velcro.
I used to import preserved insects (long story) from Peru and would pick them up at the airport, but I had to go through customs.
Oh, there was paperwork. There was a lot of paperwork.
Anyone old enough to remember when white-putting a car was a thing? Everything painted white. Corvette even had an “arctic” version. https://images.app.goo.gl/Zc34wbJXczV6rPX87
Big in the 1980s.
Part of me likes the de badged look but part of me feels like I feel when I’m looking at a sentence without punctuation and who like a sentence without punctuation i say nobody but then again who am I to say your thoughts
For me, this is important. I’d like a more efficient (I.e. less estrictive) DP, but I don’t want to pollute more. In fact, I’d not get a DP that I thought reasonably polluted more than stock or whatever the standard is (I don’t want to sound self righteous here). Catless is a non-starter for...
I was stunned by how crappy the rear speakers are. My M240i is similar, meh in the front and bad in the back and just by dropping JLs in the back (no lectures on sound stage, please) the sound was significantly improved.
The Supra is similar but more extreme. The fronts aren’t great, but...
They did. A little wiggle and making sure that the pin was pulled all the way out. I compressed the rivet with fingers so it was as slender as possible when I pushed it in. That made a big difference.
