Oooo nice.
Nothing to top that but I buy stuff that is supposedly broken, which I ge tworking by putting on or off some switch.
$5 dead onkyo tx3000, ok I get it home, and get it working by pushing the tape monitor button.
I dont con them, I dont tell them its broken - nothing, I dont even talk ... I hand em their asking $ and get it.
Cool.

lol i got a 51 inch plasma tv for free because the dude though it was broke.. well all that was wrong with it was the reciver unit. i just hoked it up to my laptop and it works perfectly, if i wanted to i could just buy a new box for it 100-300 bucks and it will work with cable as well...

since its a plasma i got the audio receiver with it which i been using with that sub i was telling you about... shakes my whole damn house lol

The Buddha

Oh I guess I am also conning people - I sell old audio to people who have no clue that those behringer iNuke types are available.
Seriously though I think those buggers have to be tried out ... not only does behringer make them, peavey, qsc, crown and several others have their own versions. Peaver is called ipr series, crown I believe is called ctl series, no idea what qsc is called ...

BTW you can build one of those by buying a high power chip amp off fleabay, I am making one inside a dead yamaha rx-v870 chassis, hopefully I'd use all the rest of the amp - the uner, the switching the volume and the trafo as well as the remote ctrl all of which do work after I pulled out the power amp circuit - which was blown up in it cos the rear amp part must have had speakers short and kill it - rear is common to be blown up cos the rear in the HT setup of old was small speakers on stands, so those stands can short the terminals ...

Cool.

hm well see most subs already come with a built in amp so whats the point of having all this power unless your running insane mids and highs??? i just dont get that part lol  :confused:

HEY! if you want to talk amps and stuff, do it on another thread. This is for POS Self Made Bobbers at superinflated prices.

Yea point taken.

And here goes - http://charlotte.craigslist.org/mcy/2670184542.html

What a POS ... sadly for an extra $7 he could have slapped a trailer fender and had it look and work a lot better.
Even better, he could ahve trimmed the stock fender for free and had a 1000 times better bobber.
And even better (ok starting to sound stupid) the stock shocks would not have been any different, that thing was very very low anyway.

And WTF $2500 - I didn't get that for my raked out chopper bobber. I had a 9 degree with a dirt bike FE, and still only managed 1400, I got a bite @ 22 got rear ended the next day, got pay off from insurance and sold it for 1400 with salvage title in 2010. And you do know that exposing a dinky little belt drive without the chain guard and engine cover is pretty much like a naked poster of a fat guy right ... it needs to be covered up and with good reason.

And this is priceless - "This always turnes heads" sadly so does a naked poster of a fat guy ... the other way ...

Cool.
Buddha.

Unless it involves an overpriced bobber, more it to Buddhas AMP thread wherever it is.
