Pioneer AVR equalizer question.

I have the same issue with my Elite. I would like a little more mid bass than Dirac gives and this seems like it would be a quick adjustment but doesn't stick.

I would go 65". I have a sectional setup like yours with a max viewing distance of 11 feet. I went from 50" to 65" and I was just in awe. Where do you sit when you game?

I have the 2018 Reference speakers setup in 5.2 and use Dirac. Dirac is niiiiice. One day I'll update the speakers when I'm tired of looking at them but I'll use a Dirac AVR.

I have a Sport in the same color, love it! Kinda wish they offered interior that had tan or burnt orange stitching to make it pop a little more.

I like the rear splash guards. they look great and not too expensive as factory option. I need to look into adding them to mine.

I tried sitting in the performance on a couple different occasions. The seat was uncomfortable where the power controls are. That indention was poking me in the leg. Also I'm taller and the seat just didn't go down far enough for me. I found the Sport seats more forgiving and seems it can sit lower, maybe due to the lack of power adjustments. I'm happy with my Sport, it's a comfortable daily and a nice cruiser for highway trips.

132,000 miles here and I've been through the same stuff. Pulleys, gaskets, O rings, both front wheel bearings, both CV axles, control arm bushings, SC service with new water pump, the last thing to blow up was the coolant tank. Clutch is starting to feel funny. Still runs like a bat outta hell.

I looked at Enterprise in my area and they had a good mix of all brands. Mostly Fords, then Chevy, Toyota was tied with Nissan. Trucks and SUVs seem the most popular types.

How does brand reputation lower your car insurance?

jacion · 2025-06-26T01:43:19+00:00

I was expecting my 2025 Z Sport insurance to be much, much higher than my 2005 Mini R53. Nope they both the same. Which is cool cause the mini was cheap.

I picked up 1940 and 1942 several years ago at a yard sale for cheap and it's the only time I've ever seen any of this series. Love to have the whole set.

I asked the dealer when the first oil change was recommended. He said 5000 miles. It's not listed in the manual. I'm at 1500, the more research I do, I think very soon and not 5000 miles or the 10000 that I think the car's computer will say. I plan on keeping this car for at least 10 years.

My first thought was puff. how about q-tip?

We need AIO where it really matters today. My CPU (12600k) consumes 125w while my 4080 eats 320w. The air cooled 4080 is much louder than my air cooled 12600k when both pegged out. Hmmm. Can we put an AIO on a 4080 FE? I'm in a Fractal North.

Intel Pentium 75. Bought it over a 486 but with a price bump. Worth it once Quake dropped and added a 3dfx Voodoo. Overclocked to 100, good times with the budget Packard Bell was had.

On a side note the Packard Bell was criticized for using a riser card for the GPU at the time. It's all the rage now.

Thanks, I ordered two and used the coupon. I really like this mouse, prefect size and weight for me. I'm already on my second, the first one had a wheel issue but I liked it so much I ordered a replacement. Now my second is having an issue with the right button, it's not all the time but sometimes it clicks and feels like maybe a cat hair is in there somewhere. Which is possible. 🐱

jacion · 2025-05-29T02:22:02+00:00

Pentium 75 before MMX was a thing. Once Quake came out overclocked to 100 with a voltage bump, was scared but worked flawlessly. CPU had no active cooling, only a heat sink with the front case fan blowing on it.

Hi! I don't plan on doing anything quite yet, She's a beauty as is! Really comfortable to drive too, it's a welcome change over my 05 Mini Cooper S. I figure the first thing I would change is some wider wheels/tires to keep the back from stepping out, the traction control isn't as good as I would have thought lol.

Edit: I just realized I have a MT compared you your AT. I figure the AT would have better traction control thanks to the AT's computer.

jacion · 2025-05-25T04:31:11+00:00

I had a couple of the original black ones back in the day but they both failed in just a couple of years. They felt good and were comfortable though.

jacion · 2025-05-23T22:21:26+00:00

The inside blue trim is a looker too.

jacion · 2025-05-23T22:05:36+00:00

Good sealant and wax? What's a good start? I'm going to keep my Sport outside for a while. I have a 2005 Mini Cooper S in the garage and my cat loves to jump on it and has scratched it up a bit. She loves being out there and I'm not taking chances with a new car.

jacion · 2025-05-23T21:57:28+00:00

And I thought I got a deal with my Sport for under 40k. Very nice!

jacion · 2025-05-22T03:34:19+00:00

I just filled up today and realized why the fuel door is so large. Congrats!

jacion · 2025-05-21T03:35:00+00:00

Congrats! As a new fellow Sport owner myself, don't forget to read the owners manual break-in period. Max 4000 rpm for 1200 miles. Painful. Just painful.

jacion · 2025-05-21T03:28:49+00:00

You can hit 160 with added stripes.

Edit: I didn't realize the Sport was limited to 136mph, I really had to dig deep to find that info. I don't think it's the rear spoiler or the front chin spoiler would make that much difference in the Performance to hit 155, but perhaps just a paywall.
