fucking hell.

EPA full emission and noise letter came in the fkn mail. Due Date 8th September. Sucks arse

The world seems to balance it self out, on one hand im flying business class to Ireland/Germany/Poland for work and then this EPA bullshit is due whilst im overseas.

If fail EPA test, retest fee is $39.40. No mention of fine if fail, so I guess thats okay :P

Going to write a letter and see what my options are... FML

Try to do everything by the book and an arrogant pig has to fuck it all up with a bleed valve. /Ragequit

also, if you're gonna rock epic 3pc meisters with chronic offsets, and your rim's not gonna sit less than 1cm from the fender, don't buy it. let it go to a good home instead.

it's like abandoning a puppy when it grows up cos it ain't cute anymore. furreals.

been gone 2 months and your still getting your rims, whats the go?

gettin outer barrels made. i told em it wasn't a high priority job... no rush. it doesn't need to go on till car's resprayed and panel beaten anyways.

plus the bolts haven't arrived from germany... this is due to waiting on my not so clever cousin to mail it to me.

altho now that I'm public transporting it like a peasant I might as well get it done.

    • Surprisingly the D6000 is only $1999, I'm waiting for the BF/CM sales, and hoping to get one cheaper. D4000 is well priced, still outperforms the 13" SVS PB-3000 and is like 1/2 the price at $1699 RRP. I do watch a fair amount of movies, and listen to EDM, jazz, symphonies, etc. so the lower notes from a subwoofer are always appreciated. The front 8" stage, just doesn't provide you with lively feeling, even though they are pretty bassy for a pair of large bookshelves. Then again, these days it's just playing Wiggles, Blippi and Ms Rachel, another reason the 3m wide cabinet exists, to hide all the audio gear behind it. They used to sit on a nice pair of stands, but as you know, they make good baby traps too.
    • Granted, which is a solid reason why I don't have one. My floorstanders are only -2 dB at 22 Hz.  So they're still working down to <20 Hz. Which is no doubt part of the reason why my receiver shits the bed! That Tonewinner would be about double the cost though, so it's not apples and apples. There aren't many AU$1300 subs (that you can buy prebuilt, I'm ignoring what can be achieved by DIYing) that compete.
    • -6dB at 22Hz isn't that great, watch the data from the D6000 from REW
    • I'll just leave this here. https://www.adelaidespeakers.com/subwoofers.html TL loading, big power. They sound awesome. This is what I would buy if I was going to try to take the bass away from my floorstanders. Just go with the 12".
    • I'll snap up some photos when I'm back home, in the office today meeting my "in the office" quota. Have 2x Teams calls scheduled in, office culture they reckon.   I've never owned a proper off the shelf sub, I've always made or modified broken ones with Jaycar plate amps and/or car subwoofer drivers. The current (and broken) subwoofer has a proper home driver in it, Dayton driver, thos one https://www.daytonaudio.com/product/118/rss265hf-4-10-reference-hf-subwoofer-4-ohm FS of 25Hz, which is low but not low enough. Yeah, I think they were brought out to the market to compete with SVS. I would love a SVS PB-3000 but they're not cheap, especially after their price hike. From reviews online, it does look like the Tonewinner D6000 would destroy and with good amount of money saved too.
