Actually it probably is from Ohio. I tend to do alot of stupid things like this up here but the money is green so oh well.

i'm originally from Columbus bro.... trust me, its nothing like that there... not nearly as bad as it is down here

I went to Old Town Kissemee and there are tons of mod scooters there. Streched, lighted, lowered, speakers, LCD screens in the foot rests. It was insane.... I was told it is a Purto Rican thing that is being copied...(sorry Rican Kat). They said in PR you gotta have a scooter or a 'busa... I was like OK..............

hahahaha funny thing is that this is taken in Puerto Rico

and yes i am also Puerto Rican...some are cool, but geez, even i know this was a little much

[Crash]

I...am...at..a..loss..of..words.....WTF

[vonrapier]

Bee Gees anyone?.............lol

The speakers are obviously used to broadcast motorcycle engine sounds as the scooter ain't gonna be heard in traffic.

I have to agree, I've heard Columbus is pretty tame on the audio side. It's totally different up here in Cleveland though. The louder the better and I dont mean just bass either

[Trackerrrr]

The bottom speakers remind me of boobs.

And louder is ALL they care about usually. I worked in Lorain/Elyria for a while, and I've never done more s**t that I disagreed with in my life (as compared to Sandusky, and the Philadelphia suburbs). 3 sets of 6 1/2" components in each door, 8 6x9's in the back deck, a-pillars lined with tweeters........... unbelievably loud, but some of the worst sounding garbage I've ever heard. The imaging is awful, the frequency response is a mess of peaks and dips, the soundstage is a garbled mess from having a bunch of tweeters up high in front but most of the midrange coming from BEHIND you..... and that's just in the cabin! I despised having to tune every ported box to have a big ugly peak in it from 60-40hz simply because if I made it smooth then it "don't bang right". Add to this the normal stresses of shop politics (sales and installers almost never see eye to eye) and you get why I retired from the business altogether. One of my great passions reduced to just an occasional hobby simply because 99.9% of the customers of an audio shop can't appreciate truly great audio.

I'm a little touchy about this, if you can't tell.....

[allblackkat]

Yeah, you seem to wear your audio heart on your sleeve...

Back to the pic, Who still wears jean shorts? Or what I like to call them, "jorts"...

[Pacerman]

Sorry allblackat but in ATL they are putting large megaphone horns in the engine compartment and such and blasting music so everyone can hear...

[JasonChen]

this is how it's done in Taiwan..... hahaha












as for this one... ehh. no comment

[KAT TOY]

Trust me I know all too well what your talking about and agree alot with where you stand on this. I also do alot of stuff I dont personally agree with but it pays the bills and if I don't do it unfortunately some other shop will.
