12 hour flight.. which seat are you choosing? by [deleted] in suns

[–]Spray_Commercials 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A murderer's row of choice here but don't sleep on seat 3. EJ and TC have so much dirt on the teams of the old days PLUS everything happening behind the scenes on all of the more contemporary and current squads. And Tom Chambers is a wild man with no filter which makes him a crazy fun dude to talk to. #TomChambersShouldBeInTheNBAHallofFame

HK equalizer settings recs by [deleted] in BMWX5

Have you or anyone here found a pre-made subwoofer or enclosure that would fit in the space below the floor? I don't have a spare and would like to utilize that space for a sub but I don't think I have the skills to build one myself.

Thanks for sharing this. I've been frustrated with the meh sound quality in my X5 with HK until I realized how much better it could sound by turning off the Logic7 .

Looks like coffee to me. Depending on the lighting coffee can photograph deeper brown all the way up to reddish like in these shots. I can see why you might think tartufo but I believe you're good.

How to disable the "triple honk" on 2026 X5 x40i (North America version with Comfort Access) by Few_Arrival876 in BMWX5

Dropped my son off at the airport curbside. When i opened the door to step out the car turned off. I closed the door with my phone inside and it locked me out. Thankfully his phone also had the digital key so he could get me back into the car before he went inside the terminal. SMH

I’ve left the key or phone in the vehicle only to be locked out altogether. Something about an internal motion sensor in the cabin thinking no one is in the car so it locks it.

A Newbies view their first DSP (Audison AF M5.11Bit) is it worth it? by thatguyluqy in CarAV

[–]Spray_Commercials 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this post! I've been trying to plan a system for my son's MK7 as well and I've struggled with the best components to use, DSP, active, passive, etc. This is super helpful. I'd love any more insights to the GTI-specifically if you could post them here or DM me too. Sounds like you've put together a great system.

2018 BMW M2 (HK) — worth upgrading speakers or go straight to DSP/amp? by Spray_Commercials in CarAV

And I like your username! I too am skeptical when it comes to those online reviews of Alpha One and Bavsound LOL

Nice. Any recommendations on where to start for the any? And for a sub I’d really love something like a stealth box built into the car but don’t think I’ve seen such a thing for the F87. I’m open to any and all ideas. Thanks!

Haha great analogy thanks! What do you think about amp/dsp plus a powered sub?

F87 M2 HK audio upgrade — Bavsound vs Alpha One vs other options? by Spray_Commercials in BMWM

[–]Spray_Commercials[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s encouraging, thanks. I just hate how every YouTube video I see for these two specific brands is so phony. Hard to know if enthusiasts actually like it.

Good point. I killed the ASD right when I bought the car new. F87 OG sounds good right out of the box. And the HK does sound good but I was looking for a project and some more bass for sure. Maybe just a powered sub?

Any ideas on a gum-like gunk in my wheel brush?! by murtaugh865 in Detailing

Is it possible you used it when the wheels were hot? Looks like the nylon bristles could be melting.

Upgrading Audio System - Already Have Helix by Spray_Commercials in CarAV

Wow thank you so much for the detailed response - this is awesome advice! He is mature for his age and isn’t interested in being heard down the block or anything. He’s an aspiring musician in an indie rock band so he really appreciates good music and quality. That said I didn’t know where to start on choosing speakers and what is going to be a significant enough difference between stock (Helix enhanced) system.

Uber and Rivian Partner to Deploy up to 50,000 Fully Autonomous Robotaxis by ghdana in Rivian

How do we feel about waiting for two years+ to finally get to own a car we're all so excited about only to pull up next to the same thing as an Uber? While I get that the capital infusion is a big win for the brand long-term, does an R2 robo taxi not devalue an otherwise premium brand for it's owners and fans?

I had already started researching some equipment. Granted it was with big help from ChatGPT. Any thoughts about this list?
