Cool

Damn man, I'm going to have to drive out to Calgary to listen to all of your collection. You've got some nice stuff.

All I need now is a co-driver for a 4 day cross country trip. Anybody want to drive from PEI to Calgary in a new BMW?

Adam, I hope you drive to Calgary. Would like to hear your Audison/Focal system and meet you.

I have added several more cd's to the collection. I have reviewed them in the other string or post or whatever you call it.

I guess I should re-install the dash and steering wheel then.

Oh, and seats too. You can't see out the windows too well sitting on the floor. As funny as it sounds, I've actually driven the car around the driveway/garage like this.

Maybe lounge chairs......

Keith, while it is possible to have the system finished, I probably won't. The basic components will be in, (again)but I expect to be tuning for a while. My list of things to try keeps getting bigger.

I've got lots of help from my dad and his lab gear, so I'll probably be posting pics and graphs of stuff that I try. A good example would be the effects of phase aligning the front stage with the subwoofer, graphed at lets say 20 points per octave. Got to love high end lab gear...

Pictures, yes I have lots. But they are very large. I use a Nikon F100/28-70mm f2.8 AFS/SB-28 combo to shoot most of the stuff on Kodak Supra 100 film. Although for really wide stuff I use a 20mm f2.8 lense. I then scan the negitives with a Nikon Super Coolscan 4000 ED scanner. That gives me a 21 megapixel image to work with in Photoshop. Basically a 65 MB image at 24bit depth or 135MB at 48bit depth. Try upload those suckers

Photography is one of my other hobbies.

So far I've taken about 150 shots, but I've been in a hurry most of the time so I haven't really set things up lighting wise for optimal exposures. Kind of point and shoot in between hacking away.

Once the installation is finished, then I'll take my time. Lots of quality photos will follow.

Hope that helps Keith,

Adam

Mini Steve,

I've already done the drive that way. I bought the car from Bavaria BMW in Edmonton. It's a long story....

You know i'm always up for a drive man, Let me know [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]

That would be pretty kool actually to take a trip out there... i've always wanted to go [img]smile.gif[/img]

And getting to listen to your stereo on the way out would be worth more than the trip to me...
