What tune are you listening to now?

[DirtDawg]

Have something against Jethro Tull?

I love that wood fairy stuff, myself.

I went back in to the War vids. Donovan is amazingly .......

But I am going to funk mode again.

[DirtDawg]

Did anyone even fucking click that linky?

 

Dropped the boy off and drove home to Aqualung.



2:12 sounds like crap in the VW. That's just wrong. Going to have to replace the speakers next.

What is it with you and messing up your speakers?

Are you going to keep the car? Most low end speakers are not worth buying, but good ones will require more power, so an amp as well.

Guessing, but do you crank it up? Maybe a whole re-do is in order.

Yep, she's a keeper, I've been running it through it's paces and finally worked out most of the issues...that turbo is a blast. You guessed right, re-do is definitely in order. 

Stock speakers, the previous owner already blew out the front right in the dash, the rattle is pretty annoying.

Nah, not my thing.

[DirtDawg]

Nah, not my thing.

Too vague. Help us out. Car stereo, Jethro Tull or War, stuff?

I was a HUGE Jethro Tull fan for many years, still love their stuff.

I would avoid the commonly advertised brands like Kicker or Polk (unless you go for their top shelf models).
I would rather see a music junkie who turns it up go with a high power amplifier and some, Alpine, Infinity or JBL or even Polk if you get into the upper level offerings. The good Polk speakers are more pricey than JBL or Infinity, Compare them to Alpine.

Kicker does make a decent four channel amplifier, but the rest of the line is for crap other than music, like SPL competition or the simple status symbol of having an incredibly intrusive and annoying sound come out of your car like the kids do.
You know, the one note boom. Not musical.

[Icequeen]

Two of my former VW's (the best ones)...were Alpine which is what I'm considering.  Truck I think is JBL, neighbor liked his music and had the factory speakers replaced a week after he bought it.

 

[DirtDawg]

You can not go wrong tricking out your sound system with Alpine products.

As long as my factory stereo system in my Traverse hangs in there I will just let it. Often wish I had a real subwoofer, though. My factory installed Bose system uses a 6x9 sub. Sounds OK mostly, but I listen to some heavy stuff at times. More bass would feel better.

One thing I don't understand about this sing (and Thin Lizzy's cover as well)

It appears that there are no Cork Mountains. At least from what I can find on the net.

Do we have any Micks left on this board to settle the issue??

Pappy, Wikipedia mentions mountains in County Cork. And in County Kerry.

Paddies may not be all that strict on naming conventions.

Been to wales myself MOSW, there are some great camping spots around. Nicest place I've been I think, was a camp site close to lake Bala, just winging it in  a tent, brought some basics, I.e meat and things to cook  it in, eggs, the stuff you can't easily just find, like bacon,  and relied on a pre-breakfast hike up the mountains  to go find the rest of a breakfast, coming back  with a bag full of the freshest mushrooms going, straight from  the hillside, hedgehog fungi, slippery jack boletes, larch boletes, oyster mushrooms fresh off the tree. SO  much tastier than  the often soggy oyster mushrooms from the  shops.

All fried up, bacon, sausages, fried eggs and beans with whatever goodies could be scavenged. Works up right appetite, all the  climbing and  foraging for several hours. Guaranteed to make a simple meal like  that taste like heaven
