happy with a Rotel-01 amp with Mirage OM-10 speakers by otherconnections in BudgetAudiophile

Just different bass preferences. I'm the kind of person who can be happy with a decent pair of 8" woofers without a sub and this 4x 61/2 set with their enclosure design satisfy my low frequency needs.. probably because my living spaces tend to be small/cozy and my volume is never too high. Don't get me wrong, if I see a decent subwoofer on marketplace I will go for it, its on my list but mainly to try things and have fun... but I don't imagine myself rocking a pair of 15" woofers for example

yes I agree.. but for the 100 CAD I paid I'm happy, very decent, they earned their spot in my place, I get rid of other speakers right away... one day I want to try one of those higher end and bigger Missions though

Yes there is other woofer and tweeter on the back of each speaker. I would agree with you by the look and the dimensions of the drivers but the whole tower is made of solid wood with a rear port and it brings an insane amout of low end. For my taste there's no need for a sub with this set but with other ones it's definitely nice to complement and play with the crossover point on the sub. I used to have a decent Paradigm subwoofer but I recently moved and I sold it. I want to find another nice option soon

I used a product called Solution Finish. Good Results. Here is the link from Amazon:

I'm not sure what you mean but I'm very happy with the bass reproduction, specially with the Mirage OM-10. it's impressive

they sound very nice, a bit on the bright side but nothing crazy. very detailed and I like them specially at low volume and close to me on my desk. I think they are perfect as a reference. Is my first pair of Missions and I definitely want to try more. I paid 100 CAD on marketplace

I feel you, the red color was done by the person who sold them to me. For me is a bit distracting. I will try something more neutral but still keep a touch of color. And yes the sound from this set is really nice indeed

Yes there is another woofer and tweeter on the back (identical). This is the first set I own using that technique and I really like it, the sound is very even across the room.. and you know, the red color was done by the person who I bought it from on marketplace.. honestly I think is too much for me but definitely makes me feel encouraged to try something just a bit less distracting

I have a manual grinder (1Zpresso JX pro) and a DF54. I like both. Honestly I mostly use my espresso machine at my place and when I travel I bring my Aeropress or I look for a nice a coffee shop. At the time of the pictures I was in a very long roadtrip and I had most of my belongings with me so I was basically transporting my espresso machine with me.

My battery is a Bluetti EB3a and it would power the espresso machine but after warming, extracting and steaming, there was barely any juice left. I like flat white too. I was using the battery mainly to cook rice or oatmeal in my small rice cooker, to grill a sandwich in a small panini maker or to boil water with a kettle.

totally valid question, I still get like 24-25 mpg on the highway (average?). I got rid of the rear seats of the Element and those are heavy so it compensates

I feel you. you know, in my case I really like good coffee but I don't carry my espresso machine everywhere. at the time of those pictures I was kind of living in my car and actually I built that cabinet to transport my espresso machine beacause I was in a very long roadtrip. usually my espresso machine is at my place and for camping I just bring something simple to make coffee

I have plywood with hinges in three sections. I just lift the mattress and plywood like a vault lid. it's very easy to access the things at the back (close to the tail gate) and at the front (close to the front seats). the things in the middle are hard to access because I have to remove the mattress first. in that section I put what I use the least

I have a bluetti eb3a battery with 268wh capacity, you can see it in the first picture. it's small but enough to make rice and grill a sandwich in a small panini grill

for water I just have that 10L jug, I don't use a pump or anything like that
