Background: AVR is Sony V444ES 110WPC. 12" 300W infinity Sub.
I've been waiting for a deal on LSi9 for my computer 2 channel setup. While hunting CL last weekend, I scored an Infinity Overtune 1 for $130.
It's about the same size of LSi9, but with a 8" 150W Sub built-in on the side, and 2 4" mid, and 1" tweeter. They discontinued this like 5+yrs ago, but the ones I got are in great condition. MSRP is around $1000/set, just like LSi9. It's super heavy (30lbs) for its size.

so now, how should I set it up with the 2 subs? facing in or out? How is Overtune series compare to LSi?

    How did you find it? I have tried multiple times to find it via google search and google image search and I haven't seen it anywhere, and yes I did try searching with "infinity overtune"

    That doesn't work for nor for several other people I've asked.

    Since you stole my picture, and didn't even bother uploading it to a new host I am now losing bandwidth off photobucket. I would like you to pay royalties in exchange for the illicit use of my picture.

    Either that, or if a mod would delete the picture off of the OP I would appreciate it.

    paying royalties? what are you smoking man?

    stole it? you put it publicly on the Internet, I google it, then "link" (not copy and sell it) it to another public site.

    PS: you and your friends should learn a thing or two about google search before putting stuffs online

    Perhaps you should google hotlinking means? It might be enlightening for you, since that's what you're doing and that's considered bandwidth theft.

    And while you're doing that, you should also look up what sarcasm means. I have the feeling this is probably your first time on the internet.

    Dudeguy24, get over it. If he was using this image for a sale, I could certainly understand your concern. However, he is not. As mentioned, this is the nature of something as public and open as the internet. If you cannot handle this, perhaps you should quit using the internet.

    Besides, if bandwidth really is your concern, the solution is very simple. Delete the picture from Photobucket and it will no longer use the bandwidth. If you still need access to it, simply re-upload it with a new name. Problem solved!

    While I agree you have a right to your intellectual property, perhaps you should look into it yourself. It was uploaded to Photobucket in a public account within a public album for the implicit use of hotlinking. I'm currently looking at your page and photoalbums. If I hover over a pic it gives me the code to do so. You have forfeited your rights by way of user agreements and by making your album public. It's not your bandwidth, it's Photobucket's, and they certainly don't mind.

    A couple examples:

    IMG_4962.jpg

    If you don't want your stuff people to hotlink to your sight, dont give people the authority to do so. If you were an actual contributing member or came in here without the attitude, I'm sure the results wouldve been more pleasant, and fewer people wouldve seen you acting like a jerk.
    design is where science and art break even.

    Oh and BTW not like you care but since your being annoying about rules...how about you follow some yourself.....specifically the terms of use for photobucket:

    5. Use by Users. The Photobucket Services are for the personal use of Users and may be used for promotional purposes as well, but direct commercial endeavors may only be used under your commercial level account (if you have one) or if such endeavors are specifically endorsed or authorized by Photobucket.

    So since your selling items, which is considered commerce.....maybe you need a commercial account... :smile:


    Oh and also:

    Proprietary Rights in Content on Photobucket.

    o 6.1 Photobucket does not claim any ownership rights in the text, files, images, photos, video, sounds, musical works, works of authorship, applications, or any other materials (collectively, "Content") that you post on or through the Photobucket Services.

    Dude who pissed in your cornflakes?

    And seriously...if you're so serious about the intellectual property of your images or the bandwidth of your photobucket page, why the hell are you linking it to your craigslist posting....along with the rest of your albums? You should have the sense to know that by including it in an advertising on craigslist that you're making the picture and your bandwidth publicly available and broadcasting it across the internet.

    Any sensible person would would upload the pic to the craigslist posting itself, and offer higher resolution pictures via e-mail for serious inquiries. nhiep made an honest mistake, but in the end, its your own fault.

    I just find it amuseing this guy joined the forum to chase the other guy down, because of a frickin' picture of a speaker ? LOL!!
    I can see this dude scouring the internet daily for people scamming him out of his prized Infinity pics. Maybe if we put Troys head on it, like so many others,it would pass muster.
