    Face, do you have a build thread or a blog for this stuff you build? I am always interested in the speakers and subs you build and would love to learn/know more about em :smile:

    P.S. your CRAZY (5 kids :eek:).... I think we may have one more and then we are finito......

    Dan,
    I was only kidding in the other thread abour asking if she was a Labrador. I see you went out and bought her a cage. Whats up with that ? LOL.

    Cute kid.....obviously looks like her mother.

    Oh....get rid of those clubs your calling lamps on top of the speakers. Wouldn't want one falling on that little girls head if she rocked one of those speakers. Just suggesting is all.

    SRV up to his knees in water, what a sight. After 5 years of drought summers & 106 temps, who would have thought. very unfortunate for some @ the flooding though. I'm 10 mins west of Austin in Spicewood, lots of rain but flooding was minimal.

    Well, technically yes. They are stacked but they are stacked in pieces much like Wilson Audio does with the bigger speakers to make one channel. If memory serves, they weigh about 7-800 pounds each. Breaking them up into pieces makes moving and transporting them much easier.

    She's a cutie and I Love the name, Skye.
    I was actually thinking about naming my son Sky, but my wife vetoed that, and we went with Ethan( unfortunately it's a very common name nowadays).

    Yeah... for the longest time I had her give me the "OK" on my favorite name of all time Ender. As in Enders Game.

    But alas that name is now off the table. I simply think its a very unique name. I also was ok with "Bean" as its another one of my fav characters in that book series.

    This obviously was only applicable if it was a boy....

    Hoping to get a boy on the second go around as two girls could be the death of me....

    Just remember, two is twice the work!
    I know from experience, have two(Catie & Ethan), but mine are teens now, 13&14.

    LOL... well we are still in the "hiatus" period. We already discussed and agreed upon wanting a min spacing of 3 years between them which gives me at least another year before we even have to make that call.

    Absolutely, but when that day comes when you no longer have to babysit, feed them, change them, it's like you won the lotto and someone gave you some resemblance of a life back.

    LOL....2 GIRLS ?? I'll pray for you my friend.
