Re: Birmingham AL DIY'ers

just wanted to bump this in regadrds to my GTG next week on April 16th. Here's the latest info..

Again, it'll be in Decatur, Al. If anyone somewhat local wants to come out, feel free. It'll be car audio guys but we're after sonic bliss, lol, so we're more like home audio dudes in this regard... not bass junkies.
Plus, I'll have a few well trained ears and there will be tons of great sounding cars to change your mind on the car audio stereotype.
Oh, and an Alabama Music Hall of Fame producer/engineer will be there, too.


Next Saturday is the big day so here's an updated list. I've forgotten some names, so please feel free to tell me. A couple people can't make it, but a couple others can. If your name isn't on the list or your status is different than what I have, please let me know and I'll fix it.

1) Erin - bikinpunk
2) Mark - Audible Physics
3) Ashley - ashman5
4) Chris - Hillbilly
5) Blake - Scionboxrox
6) Jason - papacueball
7) Scott - Alpinem
8) John - Pionjek
9) Chuck White - StereoLuver
10) Kirk - AcuraTLSQ
11) Paul - PaulD
12) Jason - ImJustJason
13) Al - BigAl
14) Lee - pyropoptart
15) (?) - strakele
16) Jack - JacksonP
17) John W - SynrG
18) Nick - Nar93da
19) Scott - peg legs
20) Jason B - bertholemey (driving all the way down from NC!)
21) Fletcher - cobalt232
22) Jim - iroc2nv
23) ??? - ocblaze
24) Ryan - slade1274 (strong maybe)
25) Ben - Honda (maybe)
26) Steve McIntyre - customtronic (maybe)
27) Charles - sssnake (not confirmed, but he lives close enough to drag here)
28) ??? - Forson (maybe)

I don't think I'll be able to make it...possibly, but probably not. However, I would like to be included in this group. I live in Birmingham (Gardendale, AL, actually), and would like, at some point, to arrange a meeting in "Middle Alabama". My name is Leonard Rogol, username rogoll on the TechTalk board. There are some others in the area that are missing from the list, but I can't think of them at this moment. You can e-mail me at leonard[dot]rogoll[at]gmail[dot]com.

I am more into home audio, personally.

Re: Birmingham AL DIY'ers

Fwiw, there wil be a ton of hoke audio guys here, too. One is a producer, and another guy is the owner of a high end driver company distributed here in the US. All sorts of other enthusiasts as well. Don't take us car audio dudes for granted. Given our environment we have to learn a lot about sound science to get the most out of our systems. The flip side is we get some very nice LFE thanks to cabin gain. :D

Oh, no! Please don't get me wrong. I understand and respect the challenges of true auto hi-fi (not the kid going for ultimate SPL in the lower region, but without any clarity of the music):p. I just don't have a car nor the finances at this point to address this area of audio.:o

Re: Birmingham AL DIY'ers

Understood. Still, would be cool if you could ,ake it. Like I said, a lot of hem audio dudes will be here. Plus, we'll be demoing some Mark Daniels gear for reference for tuning the cars.
I'll also be teasing some drivers and letting people see the test baffle I've built and the klippel. Should be a rad time.

Maybe next time, though.

Re: Birmingham AL DIY'ers

Hey, I see this old thread pops up again

I am in Huntsville. I just pulled my car audio system out (all old school PPI stuff, PAR225, OMX, active 3 way, Morel mids, vifa tweets, dual 10") ... too bad, it would be fun. This weekend kids have Lacrosse in Birmingham. Keep me informed, cooking right now I have a pr of Paul's Sunflowers going for a guy in Florence (helping him with assembly of the crossovers).

Thanks, Bryon
