I've played with time delay and X-over points a little on the Alto, but building this garage has keep me on my toes for months now....still need to build another box for 2 12"s to install my other profi 12" and swap out the sub amp from the Alpine to Cadance...

Low, sorry to see CC fold, bad time for anyone to get laidoff right now, we let 2 people go last Mon., one with 18 years service...I was sweeting and I have 26 years in the glass industry
Its all good, I guess. Theres nothing I can do about it but at the same time, it bothers me because I have no job.

Anyways, it may be towards the DC area. Itll either be that or back to Colorado.

Gotcha, are you happy with the way it sounds?

DC area isnt too far from me.

Yes it sucks, but look at the bright side ... 60 days working or not is still paid. Gives ya some time to find something while not taking a hit on the income end.

Well, thats the part thats not bothering me. Yes, Ill have till March 31st (at the latest) to find a job. But itll probably be out of the industry. All of the shops around here with the exception of Prestige Autosound are starting to fold. But if at the worst, I have 6months of unemployment....

Nah not in the least, in fact Im getting a little worried about your love affair with Dual to the point that you may drop TRU from your lineup.

Okay let's try: Have you ever strayed away from the orient and tried Rainbow, US made products, Hybrid, etc.

Same statement without us made products in the front of the list. THIS WAS NOT A LIST OF US MADE PRODUCTS. How many times and ways must I explain this simple statement?
OK, I see Don cleared this up and sorry I hammered you on this matter....
As most on here know, I'm a country boy and grammar isn't one of my strong suites either.

But, if I may make a recommendation on your part.. from reading many of your post in other threads, you have or at lease come across in the forums with a "know it all attitude" on any subject you reply on..

I know you are new here and I can tell you from many years of experience, with that attitude or display of that attitude, you will alway be hammered on most any forum..

Zed designed them IIRC. They are awesome amps.

That's because I was being called out by people who have never used anything better than mainstream, yet argued that stuff is good. Hence they had no arguement, but said I knew nothing. Anyways I guess it's all resolved now. I was basically put on the offensive for nothing.

experience is key here, Low for example has TONS of experience installing stuff... even if its been mostly just mainstream stuff.

remember it only counts if youv'e installed it and spent time testing and tuning.... otherwise its just an opinion
