no kids... supposedly snow on the way... might have enough supplies at the house to hunker down if it does snow... maybe not... not daunted.. I hate snow but I can get around and do stuff in anything if I have to.

thinking about booking Thursday off next week on the low to do up a good meal and nice evening for Shimmy.. but then maybe I want to book the friday too? hmmm.

what you guys got going on?
13312615, need a weekend to relax

im trying to figure out if to get an amplifier, if so where to buy it from and where to get it installed.

do i go 4 channel, do i go 5? will i get noticeable better bass with a 4 channel? can my car handle this?? can my pockets?? lol

i dont want to spend more money and be eh. right now it really needs more bass, like a good amount of it.

im wondering if getting an amplifier would of been better than getting speakers.

been playing more smash brothers, the adventure mode is actually pretty entertaining. i think i might start alternating between games again though. that sealed zelda keeps staring at me but im trying to resist it until i get more time with the other games.
13312666, you puttin some knock in the whip?? Nice!

13312686, i want to but i dont know what to do

i just need more bass. i dont know if an amplifier really adds more bass without a subwoofer. i dont know if it makes more sense to get a mono-amp and a subwoofer or a 4 channel amp for the speakers and no subwoofer. at most im thinking i would do a 5 channel amp but wait on the woofer.

im looking at the specs of the speakers and theyre 30W RMS each in the back and 35W RMS in the front. theyre not the most powerful but a big upgrade over factory. supposedly the head unit can only send 10/15W per speaker.

i can get the bass hitting pretty good right now, but i have to turn it up to almost 75% and the highs start being a bit much.

looks like i would be spending around $150 for just the installation of an amp so uhm yeah im not sure. im seeing some amps around $70 for 4 channel and some with brands ive heard of around $130.

sadly i didnt really test as much music as i wanted to on my road trip. we mostly kept the volume down so we could talk. i need to spend some serious time testing out songs and tweaking the EQ. i think ive mostly done what i can with the EQ though.
13312688, Maybe look into one of those powered subs?

You wouldn't have to mess with an amp that way and they can usually fit under a seat or something.
13312696, haha i was just reading about that

13312669, Just bought some drumsticks at the thrift shop during lunch. It's a sign.

Bass, guitar, drums & keys all weekend, at least at nights.
13312701, nice I got an electric Yamaha kit
Posted by PG, Fri Feb-08-19 04:47 PM
but I also have that Navin R. Johnson rhythm.

keep meaning to spend some time applying myself to accumulating some chops on drums...

got some chops on pretty much everything else... but drums are kinda critical lol.
13312724, I'm a beginner at drums. Finally have a kit and some space
Posted by flipnile, Fri Feb-08-19 06:13 PM
Got my big cousin's kit from when he was a teen. My son wants to learn drums also, so the plan is to get him started so we can jam together.
13312685, I need to get this house clean...
Posted by Trinity444, Fri Feb-08-19 04:20 PM
my mother will be here in a few days
gosh I miss her..

hitting the market tomorrow then spending the rest of the weekend getting my tax prep done.

bon jour :-)

13312711, hey
Posted by PG, Fri Feb-08-19 05:00 PM
what about jackfruit????

lol and you start the book yet? I'm on chapter 3 he just met shorty...

meh it's a superfluous point irrelevent to the content and value of the book but I'm kinda annoyed that I watched the movie already (years back mind you) cause I got those visuals going on.... I find it mildly distracting and limiting to my imagination when I read something I've already seen a film for... even moreso when it's non-fiction cause let's face it shorty is a real guy, spike lee is a real guy.. they aren't the same guy but in my minds eye they are now.. I need to research up images of the real folks i guess.

anyway that's minor..... let me know when you're up for discussing some of the real meat.
13312727, I haven’t tried it...
Posted by Trinity444, Fri Feb-08-19 06:32 PM
I found some recipes on Pinterest and was looking to see if anyone tried it.

regarding the book. I thought I still had it but, I don’t. I’ll download it from the library tonight and start.
13312698, Gonna try to get these kids to watch Invincibles 2 tonight
