If something so simple and cheap gave these types of improvements you would think they would be a stock item. All manufacturers want to improve power and economy. If it worked it would come as standard.

Yes. Same as what is done in the far north of Canada.

Here in Gladstone a shale oil trial Refinery was built and abandoned due to costs and environmental concerns. It was simply uneconomical for this type of industry in Australia due to our high income levels, bureaucracy and operational costs. Most commodities are sold at set international...

Sorry.... Don't make it to these parts often. I got nose in my front left. But I think it is a dodgy amp. Haven't confirmed this yet. Am currently not using the amp and just using the JBL internal power for now until I get the sub box built. Using the MS-8, I get no noise. I taped into the...

This is the type of genre I tend to mix. Here is a couple of my mixes. Download them from Soundcloud if you like them.... https://soundcloud.com/dj-drc1/drc1-may-mix https://soundcloud.com/dj-drc1/march-electro-mix-1 https://soundcloud.com/dj-drc1/friday-night-progressive

I spent last weekend getting a little crazy with some DJ mates of mine from around the country. We converged for a 4 day weekend at the Gold Coast. Got a bit creative with some pics. Mixing all the things by dcBear78, on Flickr The deep house begins by dcBear78, on Flickr 900's, 2000's and...

Cheers. But I am very new so can't really provide much technical advice. I tend to shoot in Av mode mostly to control depth of field. But if shooting something like sports I swap to Tv to control shutter speed. A fair bit of trial and error goes into it for me right now until I get more...

Cheers for the feedback. Photography certainly is a practise thing and the more I shoot the better I feel I am getting.

I bought a Pentax K-30 at Christmas time. No experience with photography at all, but something I have always wanted to learn. Suffered a bit of lens buyers addiction. Along with the DAL18-55mm that is pretty average that came with the lens I have purchased a DA18-135mm WR for bit more versatile...

Been a while since a made a new mix. Here is a new Electro set. I'm quite proud of this one. http://soundcloud.com/dj-drc1/march-electro-mix-1

Holy ****! I want?!?!

I wouldn't go over the top. High spec speakers that are under-amped sound worse than cheaper ones. $300-$400 would be where I would aim for.

Firstly the power handling of the speakers is useless info (and highly optimistic). Need to know rms output of amp as this is what is sucking the power. But if only the one amp a 4 gauge kit will be more than adequate. Aerpro or Jaycar stuff is fine. There is little difference in it. Good...

Really wanting the integrated HVAC app for the iPad. That would really finish this off. What did you use to mount your iPad to the dash? I have the iQ system and thinking of just running a mini in front of the screen. But needs to be able to slide up n down to access radio controls.

Give a budget and we can give recommendations.

DrC1 - Live Electro Practise Mix | Mixcloud One of the things with the mixes I have linked so far is they are meticulously planned and practised prior to hitting the record button and doing my thing.... It is all live, not put together afterwards in Ableton etc. But, this is not how real live...

This is god's way of telling you to put a Chev badge on it lol

Sorry... Not quite a side by side comparison (now I read that back). But he thought they sounded the same, or as good as the original are supposed to.

Going to eat some humble pie here guys..... Mine ARE fake. :doh: Just looking through this page and while I don't have the actually speakers to look at, I do have the crossover here and the box. Not everything matches with the fakes, but enough do to make me believe without a doubt that these...

My quick google says they were TS-C160R.... I think these pre-dated the PRS? And certainly not of the same calibre. Maybe wrong. Either way they were not "cheap" speakers when I bought them. I think around $350-$400 when I bought them approx 2001/2.

Not exact order and not specific models cause I can't remember that many details. All spits though.... Alpine 5.25" (first entry into car audio about 1996... Didn't even know the brand back then), Phillips 6" (great bang for buck I think about $170? Loved them), Boston 6" (the $600 ones and...

I put up a review in that section should tell you a fair bit about my experience. It's a perfect processor for my needs (own power, no pro setup required). Definitely not the best out there. But awesome value for money.

Yep. Apparently mine are the "fake" ones. And I'd still recommend them any day of the week. Over the last 15 years or so I have bought 6 pairs of splits ranging from $200 to $600 and these "fakes" are by far the best sounding ones, with the best packaging and instructions I have owned. I...

^^ what he said. On the VE the door trim protrude into the door cavity. If you really want to do this right you can use your trim and make a fibre glass mild that you can then use to seal up the service hole properly. Might try this, although my mid bass is pretty strong as it is. No new pics...

The S4 was and is the only DJ equipment I have used. Very easy to pick up and get going with. Check out my mixes for a noob effort. Only been at it since March and really only made about 10 or so mixes in that time. BUT.... In hindsight I think the S2 would be a better choice. Unless you really...

They were grey imports, not fakes. I have them and if they are fake they have gone to a lot of effort to not make much money. The packaging, glossy manual and the quality of the product is outstanding. The ONLY issue found was the circuit board in the crossover was not secured properly. The...

There's thousands of aftermarket options from $10 Supercheap jobbies to multiple thousand dollar high end speakers. You might need to specify a goal and budget? Nobody in their right mind would actually upgrade to the SSV stuff. If you are going to put in the time, effort and money you would...

Cheers mate!

I got other things I need to do in my day.... I probably spend an hour or two in prep before hitting record. Plus I find I get more people listen to half hour mixes than one hour ones. And last but not least is, I only have limited time on Soundcloud. Half hour mixes allow me to have more up...

What about Australian GT Series? This is where the Erebus Motorsport team that is combining with SBR have come from. To me, this is the racing that is actually interesting. GT3 style exotics fighting agianst all and sundry.

So I will kick this off with some of my mixes. Like I said I am relatively new to this, but I do have a bit of a music background so the fundamentals of beatmatching and phrasing I find easy. These mixes, for the most part are very well planned and rehearsed before I hit the record button. I am...

Earlier this year I fulfilled one of those things I have wanted to do for ages and that was start learning how to DJ. I did my research and for the money I wanted to invest the best option for me was a controller. So I bought a Native Instruments S4 and some studio monitors. I have been playing...

JBL MS-8. Check out the review I wrote in the reviews section.

^^ good point. I sound deadened my doors before installing speakers. Nearly even made the stock speakers bearable.

If you have the rears running off the head unit with fronts/ sub off an amp that will happen cause you run a head unit at a higher volume (number on the dial) with an amp than without.... ie if your head unit has a max volume of 50, normally it will start clipping around the 30 mark so you...

I did pull the sills out first. You will need to at least remove the rear one to run wires under the. And remove seat, just pull bottom up and unbolt the back bit.

Can't remember which came out first? I pulled the lot out as I originally had plans to tap into it up front. Plus I run wires to the front for new speakers. Surely you are not planning on using poor excuse for speakers it comes with?

RRP: US$388 plus postage from the US @ Amazon. No local distributor. Features: - 8 speaker level inputs - 8 line level inputs - Auxiliary input - In built 18wrms output - Fully configurable electronic crossover - 31-band EQ - USB port for software updates Things I like: - Super...

I tapped into the rear door speaker wire. You can find this at the base of the B pillar. You will need to remove these pieces anyway if you are running speaker wire to the front. From memory there is 5 wires that go through there, 3 for the windows and 2 for the speakers. Can't remember the...

Just wondering where this is up to? With the iPad mini being released I am more keen than ever to get this in my car.
