Balanced systems are few and far between these days.

Realisitcally? Most just fit the biggest they can in, or have some preconceived notion about what size sub they need based on the 'perfect' size (usually 10's or 12's for those guys).
People who know what they are doing size ther subs according to what they need to fill the gap in the rest of their system. This means level matching, frequency matching, etc. For example, make a poll, see how many of the guys here running 18" subs have 6.5's or smaller as the next biggest sized speaker in their system. Or, watch the next several threads you see where people ask what sized subs to get... almost none will have someone responding asking anything about the rest of the system they should be trying to blend with, its not even considered.

Balanced systems are few and far between these days. No, speaker size choice these days is based mostly on voodoo, rumors, bragging rights and simple aesthetics. Pretty sad really.

I find nothing wrong with choosing a pretty sub. It may take more effot to sound good, but I like the way flatcones look....and design the enclosure, tuning, etc based off what works best for the sub....and process the **** out of it to get it to sound good.

Is mentioning IB here cheating like mentioning planars/electrostats? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

The 'youre all just a bunch of idiots and my 19 year old brain knows more than anyone else on this board' attitude.

I had a 19 year-old brain two years ago //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Frightening...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

When I was 19 I nutted on a girls breasts. That seems to be a far better exercise than rambling about BS on the internet like cotjones.

The topic is cone size, not cone shape or material type. My comment on aesthetics had to do with someone chosing a sub size for the 'look'.

At 19 I knew the basic speaker specs, and had read alot of Crutchfield magazines... hell I knew it all too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif Dont be hard on yourself, we all dig ourselves out of our own holes. \The only question is when, and how much of an ass do we make of ourselves along the way. Cotjones is an example of the worst type, the 19 year old bed wetter of car audio.

I am without a doubt the most queer, dick ******* mother ****er to ever choke on a fat throbing vainy ****.

I have no idea what I am talking about, no subject matter at which I have spoken of in this thread can resemble, in any way, any chain of sensible thought.

Please, let me **** your balls untill they grow soggy from my saliva.

Yummy. Salty semen. It makes my pee pee go boing boing boing.

you could essentially say nutting on _________ is a far better excercise. cotjones will be inclined to insert a part of male anatomy in that space ruining what, so far, has been a gayless thread. with the exception of cotjones natural gay aura.
