Amp & Sub
Recently I was given a 12” Alpine Sub woofer in a sealed box, and a 250 Watt Amp to power it. Well on Friday I took my entire interior apart and got it installed. Its awesome. My truck is pretty loud on the road because its got wide tires and its old – but with a solid stereo I can turn up the volume and it doesn’t bother me at all. Since my door speakers are pretty small (to fit in the original mounts) – there was a pretty obvious lack of bass that no equalizer could fix. With the sub and amp all setup – it rocks. So if you want to bump to 50, it sounds just as hot as the dance club. Big Up yourself – respek.
Things To Do
I’ve decided there are some things that I want to be better at. In no specific order: Skateboarding, I’ve always been OK but I can’t do any of the cooler tricks (read: 360 flip), now that I’m on break in a warm climate I should take advantage of it. Guitar, I am pretty good on the Piano, but there is something about the sound of the guitar that draws me, I’d just like to be decent enough to cover most songs I listen too. I am also working on a collage of everything I do, maybe work it into a layout for this site if I magically get creative overnight (one can always dream, no?). Respekt.
The Doors
Nothing much going on in Hanover. I watched Collateral which was entertaining, but nothing to write home about. Lately, I’ve been really into music, expanding my horizons. The Doors have been the band of choice, and some random R&B groups that I’ve heard about as well. Yeah.
Stereo!
I got a stereo all setup and configured in the FJ60. It a Pioneer (Premier) HU, with basicSony speakers, two-way in the backs and three-ways on the front doors. I’ve got a Belkin Auto Charger that plugs into my iPod. Thischarger also plugs into the Multi-CD changer on the HU via an RCA to mini adapter, so I have great sound. The HU is extremely basic but its everything I need. 50W x 4 and Subwoofer support. In the fall when the iPod interface is released by Pioneer I’ll upgrade from the Belkin and have the HU read the song titles and playlists. For now though, I can listen to my iPod on the road without having to use a tape adapter or stupid FM transmitter.
