I'm into it, tho i dont have a car, but they do interest me

Please do share some.
I'm not huge into it but it is an interest of mine. Besides, I'm sure anyone here can recognize the beauty behind it all.

I use to be real big into it. DB drags and such. That was like 6-10 years ago though. My last system had 3 13" JL w7 powered by 3 JL 1000's... And yes my mother was right, my hearing has gone to ****.

one of the many pics of the build.....
and heres some of the one that i finished up last week.
Both need carpet, and the first one is getting something even more special.
there is an amprack in the top, there will be a flush mounted amp in there.
Let me know what you think.

nice boxes!!! wanna build me one???
I have a passing interest in car audio, just not a huge priority in the budget unfortunately.
This is what I have so far in my car:
dvd receiver with sirius and someday soon, bluetooth
http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Products/CarAudioVideo/In-Dash/DVD-Receivers/AVH-P3100DVD
front speakers
http://www.bostonacoustics.com/Pro60SE-P601.aspx
rear deck:
http://www.bostonacoustics.com/SR95-P627.aspx
Looking at these for the bass:
http://www.bostonacoustics.com/G310-P566.aspx
I already have a box that is in the recommended dimensions for these speakers.
Also, what is a good amp (not crazy expensive) to push these, or is there a better deal on 10inch woofers.
I'm looking for clean sound more than overall thump.
Any suggestions?

your link for the subs returned a server error
and im all about building something and shipping it....lol
Boston is an excellent brand, but compared to their retail pricing, there are better, less expensive options out there.
If youre looking for some ideas, shoot me a PM, i know of a few very good, lesser known companies that I have used, and also that i still use.

try this again. the 10"subs I've been looking at:
http://www.bostonacoustics.com/G310-P566.aspx
I agree, retail they are expensive, but they can be found for half of retail if you shop around.

Meant to edit that post, i clicked a second time and it worked.
They are killer sounding subs for sure. 300/pair isnt all that bad to be honest.

Tips on buying my first LED TV from Craigslist? Please share your knowledge?

Hi Friends,
Not a stranger to CL at all, have scored many-a-deals there, am aware of the necessary pre-cautions that come with CL and testing and buying a phone from there. But, for the first time I am thinking of picking up my first flat-screen TV from CL.
Before everyone throws in the red flags at once ! LOL! The guy, so far, from texts and etc sounds like a well versed professional in healthcare, much like myself. He is moving, and is not taking his TV with him, which he received in September as a birthday present. He's very responsive, organized, in that he set a specific time for meeting at his house to examine the TV. Much like myself, his terms are fair and upfront. He's talked about the minor aesthetic damage on the TV, and wants cash... He's even gone on to say that he prefers selling his items to people who are friendly and upfront on CL. All of these things actually are things that I do/have done while selling on CL myself. So, that's a bit about the seller.
Where I need your help is on... how to MAKE SURE and TEST and LED TV, since I know next to nothing about them, owning them, and etc?
Sample steps phone for a phone might look like this:
1. Turn on wifi, bluetooth, data, and GPS to make sure they work
2. Make a call
3. Turn on the speaker
4. Launch the camera
5. Take a picture, make a video
6. Play it back to hear the audio
7. Check the SD Card
and so on...
What would be the steps I need to follow when buying a used LED TV?
In case you are wondering the TV is: Sony Bravia KDL60EX723
Thank you for your help!

1. Turn on TV
2. Test audio and video
3. Test HDMI
4. Make sure there aren't any dead pixels
5. Test all the ports to make sure they're functional.
6. Ummm... Test the remote?
Sent from my Nexus 7

Check connections like AV and HDMI.
Check if screen has any defects like high or low colour saturation.
Ask for a bill or receipt too

Make sure there is no screen leaks

Before you buy it look at this from the same guy on CL. I think he is pulling something over on you.

Pillow talk, anyone?

To my surprise, I've gotten used to snuggling up with my Nexus 7 instead of a book to wind down at night. Currently in middle of Season Three (I think) of Northern Exposure. It works quite well to defuse stress.
My problem is that I need something to prop up the tablet. I've tried to prop it on some cushions with other cushions or a book to hold it in place, but it slips down constantly. I have an easel-style stand, and one of the Poetic cases that sort of folds into a stand (but doesn't stay put), but what I really need is a pillow. I even went to try the one being hawked on TV at the moment (the "GoGo Pillow"), and the design would work, but it's too big for the 7" Nexus and not adjustable. I've seen some similar designs, some of which clearly won't accommodate a 7" tablet but others that look like they'd work.
The most promising looks to be the Lap Pro on Amazon, but I'd love to hear a personal recommendation if anyone's tried one of these or a similar product.
Does anyone have a solution that works for this very first-world problem? Next up, why does Whole Foods leave the feta in the salad bar in such big unmanageable chunks? :laugh:

Wasn't entirely sure how you have your tablet from what I read.
Do you prefer to watch it while lying down? On your side? On your stomach?
Or do you sit while you doze off? Personally I have this case (rooCASE Multi-Angle) which would be helpful if you have it laying next to you on your side. In addition, I love it when you are working on a desk, as it gives you that angled look without having to hold it up. Not only that, it's pretty thick, and I carry various stuff like the crazy college kid I am, but know the tablet can take a beating and a good dropping while in my book bag.
I know it's out of stock but there are many cases like it. I think you can find a very similar one made by poetic.
Hope this helps out. :fingers-crossed:

I found this on google, I thought it might be interesting!
https://www.google.com/search?q=tab...P_qQGLvIDoBw&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1440&bih=785

Something like this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Universal...let_Mounts_Stands_Holders&hash=item2587de5534
I have a couple of these, one at work and one at home, fits the N7 perfectly and the angle is completely adjustable.

This is useful
Thanks for sharing this / Thought it is a simple search in google / It made me to understand what a Pillow Talk is

I used a link from google drive, but now the images are on the attachments, it should be fine.

Cool

Where is the kickstarter page? And is there a battery built into the case?

There is not battery on the case and the kickstarter page is at flitch[dot]io/ks. I am sorry but I haven't posted enough message yet to share a link in xda forum.

I have backed, great idea, though i cant really see you getting the £50k you need as this is just s6 owners, who are going to pay £50 for a phone case? great idea though
Here the link for those who want to see more

Yeah, but it's not only a phone case, it is also a game controller that fits on your pocket and you can take with you everywhere.

nice design

Looks cool and like a great idea, but $62? Man that's asking a lot, even for a controller. Especially one with only joysticks and shoulder buttons, missing the standard 4 letter buttons. I'd pay maybe $30 for this product.

The trick is that the cover is pressure sensitive so it is possible to simulate the 4 letter buttons with the second joystick. :highfive:

Cool, but still too asking too much. Idk how much your costs are but you guys need to find a way to get the price down.

CHOETECH Multip-purpose LED Flashlight

Hi guys, I'm taking some time to review something that has become one of my most used tools.
It's a flashlight, but it's also a power supply.
Well I have tested this device for a few months been a police officer I have tested in extreme situations.
And I want to let you know why I believe this is a necessary tool.
1.brightness
2. Aplication
3. Power
4. Confort and durability

First as I've been working in security for more than 10 years now. I've had bought more flashlights than I need[emoji1]
Well this is well above average, and quite awesome. It's brightness is more concentrated than my last 5watt torchlight and about the same brightness. Which it's perfect for all use.
Recently we had power surge and we used this device to light out the house. It did awesomely and was the only thing I needed.
Application:
As said before this is a bright torch and will not disappoint, and with its various modes it brings many functions.
1.flashlight
2. Torch
3. Emergency signal
Also this has a hidden feature a glass breaker, which many people don't even think of using but in a car accident it's a life saver, also it hides a seat belt cutter conveniently on the back but in such fashion it's safe for anyone.
Power
Power is something we look on all devices and many disappoint. But this one I use almost every day and I have charged it just a few. It easily covers you for a hole week without charging. And by heavy use.
And did I said its a power supply for smartphones? Yes, you take out the top cover and it unlocks it's main feature. A USB connection to charge your phone a side from the micro USB to charge the device itself.
So you'll never be out of juice in the hardest situations.
And to close out this review this device sounds huge and bulky but it's surprisingly light and ergonomic designed for the grip of your hand it will fit without slipping and it's hard as rock. Mine has endured hard weather, work and a 4year old kid. It has been thrown and survived in crazy situations without problems what more can you expect.
Here is the link for anyone who would like to check it out.

Looks interesting, thanks for sharing.

how many lumens? if its not at least a few hundred it cant replace my streamlight

Good question. Their website only says 3 watts. For now I'll also stick with my Streamlight (though it is just a flashlight).
