After 500 miles with the 10"Solo-Baric I put back the i6SW...

and I'm glad I did! the i6SW is sweet!

do not misunderstand me, the 10"solo is great! specially if the WOW factor is at Max volume (but no more than 10-15 minutes for me).

Seems like a small box for that Solo10. What is the xMax on that thing?

My Infinity 10's like .75cf sealed ( specs say 14mm xMax )

Not surprised you like the i6SW. Them smaller subs sound creamy smooth.

I'm so happy with my Infinity's... I have no plans to replace them anytime soon.

You should run THIS tune through your system:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLq0tpZZe7M

It's great for tuning, because it has lots of seperated elements, and a PHAT bottom-end!

This song makes my system sound better than it is.

No big or small, that is what Kicker want's... 0.66 cuft (period) no more, no less.

Here is the LINK for the manual

Yes, I like the way the i6SW performs, now the question is... what about 2 little i6SW...

Usually, the box volume is based on the cone diameter + excursion.
( adjusted for peak target frequency )

Some high-excursion 10's like a 1cf sealed box. ( MOST call for .75 )

But hey.... everyone knows that. So i'm just thinking out loud again.

I saw a bunch of pics on FB, but what did you get for Christmas? Anything audio related?

Betrayed? No. Disgusted, yes.

I won't dictate on how they should live their hobby. What I won't do is let them drag me down. I was not happy with their individual attitudes. It was not a "team" except on the surface. The only part of Team Hybrids that is actually a team are the guys here in the NW. Guess who put that together? Yours truly.

Without going off too much further, I'll probably be out of the car audio thing competitively for several years...at least until I'm out of the military. Then I'll be working on my car project (after this last deployment).

As my audio plans go, this vertical tri-amping project is going to be fun, especially the signal wiring. I got the P-01 fixed and now the Bit One is next in line for repair. That is going to the same place that repaired the source. Great people over at Pyramid Audio repair.

Be careful with patents.

Also, does your idea include the ability for the speaker inside the pillow to self-correct itself to face up?

No, the speakers are not inside the pillow, I'll send you a picture of the concept idea.

I can't say more how pleased and happy I'm with my Yaris, it came out really good.

It's a great commuter car, 40+ MPG, soft quiet ride, fast enough to keep up with traffic, looks good, handles great and sounds awesome!

If I had to change cars for a new one, I would be in deep trouble, I like my little ride that I can't see a substitution for a long while.

I'm looking at getting rid of my Hybrid Audio Technologies Legatia SE 641 pro set. It's high dollar, even below cost. My four channel amp is already on eBay and I've already sold and shipped my old pair of autographed L8 mid bass woofers.

Hey guys!
I'm in the tropics right now visiting family and friends, (here in Guatemala) you wouldn't believe how many Yaris sedans drive around here, I see 1 in every corner!
