My DREAM system (sorry for shouting)

peace brainerd · 07:55 PM

Saw this on Craigslist and just fell in love. But I'm picturing it bigger. It'll require the rest of the winter full-time to scale it up, hand tool the molds, and rent injection molding time at the factory down the road, but it'll be worth the effort in the end. Top of the line Scan Speak drivers all around. Boutique crossovers. If the amp and cd transport actually live up to the way cool exterior then I'm sure they're already good to go.

I may just make matching pairs with stands modelled on Robbie from Lost in Space. Anything over 115db will trigger a threshold switch and activate Robbie's blinking red lights as he rotates on his heels and hollers "Danger, Danger"!

Upon further admiration, the picture suggests that there is cassette transport as well. "Yes, I have a cassette transport" to the retro girls that show up with their tunes on tape. I'm finally gonna get laid for sure.

Looks and loud midbass sell. But you're going to turn the lame into the awesome. Be sure n' post pics of the completed monsters so we can have a group-drool.

Be sure to include attachment points for a steering wheel and column on either side so that it will be more popular globally. Provide universal attachment points to make it as easy a dash swap-in as possible on most popular sporty cars. Almost forgot, make sure the OVERDRIVE control goes to eleven!

I was thinking 12. But someone's just gonna one up me sooner or later. I'll put an infinity symbol there instead. When is all done and certifiably crankifiable, I'll brace myself for stupediosity and just bury the dial. Meet me in the next dimension man!

Did you notice the runners molded into the bottom? If my ambition for size overcomes all sensibility I can tow these babies from gig to gig in the winter.
My head is swimming.

Looks like a BIG chunk of landfill, look at all that plastic that loves to resonate. EWW!!!

where do you install the flux capacitor?

peace brainerd · 08:36 PM

Jleaman.. to each his own I guess. I'll bet you wear polyester green plaid bell bottoms.
And don't hold your breath waiting for my dance party invite.

NO flux capacitor yet in the works. I'm not sure that 2010 is ready for this yet much less the 1950s. MUCH less is my guess.
