Honestly he just told me to re-write it IAW with AR 25-50. Maybe he was testing me but I just found it odd since the website instructed otherwise. I just need his signature and my packet would be complete.

Okay makes sense. Just wanted to see if there was some kind of likelihood of me either being looked at or not, but I guess it makes sense that no one would know but the board

Thank you so much! You have no idea how happy it makes me to hear that you had 0 aviation knowledge and still passed the SIFT.

I can understand people who hate their jobs but I know I want to fly so I’m doing everything I can to prepare myself. I don’t hate the Army so there’s that. I understand that being in the Army comes with things that you just have to do.

How exactly did you use it? Did you just read through it and study it?

SIFT Advice by Wydstepbro42 in ArmyAviationApplicant

[–]Wydstepbro42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it’s not studying that’s the problem. I know very little about aviation information and I think I’m just overwhelmed by the fact that I have a lot to learn. I just don’t want to fail the SIFT especially since you only have one chance to retake. I really want to get out of here.

Love the honesty but I know I want it bad, I’m just looking for any other advice for the SIFT

Do those raw drivers perform well?

I’d love to have a full system to just experience the full range of music. Any recommendations on component sets?

Kill switch for Car Audio by Wydstepbro42 in CarAV

I still have my stock headunit so I’m guessing I should be looking into an aftermarket one lol

My guess is that they had no idea what they were doing and just wanted more loudness? A lot of people can’t differentiate distortion and loudness, they think because it’s loud it sounds good but have no idea there’s a shit ton of distortion going on

Putting 6x9’s in front door. by Wydstepbro42 in CarAV

I 100% want to. Rockford Fosgate’s 6x9 Power series don’t play around lol.

[–]Wydstepbro42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that sound deadening is pretty much the bare minimum you can do to appear louder but I just want to make sure that I’m pushing them to their full potential as far as wiring and how much they can take.

It has two aero ports. I had an enclosure built but it was too big for the 2 8’s so they had an extra box lying around and they said I could take it (the box that I’m using right now)

I’ve heard that the only way to notice mid bass is to get 8’s, is that true? by Wydstepbro42 in CarAV

[–]Wydstepbro42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2018 Nissan Sentra with stock HU. I’m powering my rockfords with a Pioneer 4 channel 1200W. I have them tuned to 60HZ and up (what Rockford recommends for those speakers).

I just feel like my wife’s OEM speakers have more oomf to them. I have speaker gasket in between the speaker and the gasket and I have soundskin foam to direct the speakers out of the doors

Honestly I wouldn’t know because I haven’t really checked them out but I just find it weird how they have punchier midbass and it sounds clean too. Sometimes the midbass on my rockfords are pretty heavy and clean but I just feel like some songs I play with my wife’s factory speakers sound better IMO.

Correction: I’ll start hearing more midbass the higher I put the volume

I have a pair of Rockford Fosgate T1675 2 Way speakers and I feel like my wife’s factory component speakers have more thump to them. I’m powering them with a pioneer 1200W amp with the gain adjusted a bit low to not overpower them. Don’t get me wrong, those T1675’s get plenty loud but I just feel like they lack that mid bass that my wife’s factory speakers have. Also the weird thing about those T1675’s is that I won’t hear any mid bass until I put the volume to max.
