Re: The Eagle has landed
ck and the Packard...man what a time for the keyboard batteries to run out....the sound just blossomed. I had been expecting a sweet spot for the horns, this was a bass sweet spot. I have never experienced a sweet spot for bass before. It seems I needed to be further away from the speakers for the bass to develop. Man on man was that sweet.

Sooo, I had to move some cars around. The general idea was to have the stereo system compliment the garage...I mean that is the reason for having a garage, right? This was much better, only problem is this is going to cost me 2 parking spots which will limit how many cars I can have. However, boy do I have a listening spot now.

Here you can see the area cleaned up a little, ATV, was in the way so it disappeared on CL. Finally, the room really started to develop. With the speakers toed in slightly and sitting back away from them the sound is absolutely wonderful.

At the urging of Digital Pete and sitting around wondering if there was anyway to improve the sound it soon became evident I had to build the wingz. Honestly, I was worried about losing floor space in the garage and I really concerned they were going to be more for show than anything, but here you can see them after installing them.

You can also see I restored a pair of 1003 horns

And finally, after two0 gallons of paint, they were done.

They sound as good as they look.

I even had to add some spot lights to lightly accentuate the fronts of them. Frankly I was gob smacked at how much depth the wingz added to the sound and the 1003 horns just really blend the vocals in.
Instead of having a garage with a stereo acompaning the cars, I now have a killer listening room accentuated with cars.
