Hello, my name is Louis Imbrogno i'm 23 and in the US navy submarine force. I'm currently in groton,ct, and moving to bangor, washington (bremington) on the 22nd (vacation until the 7th).
I currently drive a 2000 dodge avenger with a eclipse cd5083, 2 old school solobaric 8's in a sealed box, zapco reference 1000.2, zapco reference 200.2 runing a set of alumapro alchemy 6.5's. On my vacation going back to my original home and picking up my 2 alumapro alchemy rx 12's.
Currently looking for a RE SX 18" and maybe a RE XXX 6.5 set if i can find one for the right price.

appreciate the warm welcome. I'll make myself at home and do just that. I'm prety knowledable, but from some of the forums i've read theres definetly some pro's here. I'm slowly but surly learnin it all.

Sold my 3 grand computer i built myself less than a month ago for 1500 to dump it into and finish my car stereo install. soon going to be ordering 120 cubic ft of raammat bxt and 70 cubic ft of their ensolight for deading. also going to be ordering a 180/110 alternator or 200/100 alternator from irragi motors still deciding.

Wonderful to meet you all hope to make this a new home :)

thanks joey. pmed sinister already and talking to dave (audiobass10) about his sx 18.
Appreciate the comment on nice setup. Only thing is the solobaric 8's get intensivly loud in my sealed enclosure (headaches all the time) but the lows just dont go as low as i'd like. Not to mention i have my deck subwoofer output at 7 of 15 and the gain on the aplifiers at the most negative setting and bass boost at hte most negative. If i turn anything up louder the subs are overpowered and you can here it badly. What can you expect from 8's though. These subs are killer :bow . Friend shiped em to me back home for 150 in the box and all. I'm not a big fan of hte new kicker solobarics they dont have half the SQ of what they used to. I'm curious about hte old school solobaric round 12's and 15's though :)

tommorow or actualy later today i'll take some pics of my mostly stock car and the audio i have installed. The car has a computer mod chip as of right now. Bought some ngk iridium 9 plugs, and some ngk plug wires but the intake manifold has to come off for them to be replaced. that will be done within the next month.
