LoriHOST
Okay.
JuliaHOST
But I sit there and I go through it, and then I've gone through my stuff at home, and like the Lumify products that we got from Dr. Crutchfield, you know, that he carried that line-
LoriHOST
Yeah
JuliaHOST
... those were excellent.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
First of all, the biggest mistake that I see people make, buying components before designing the system.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
If you go out and, uh, you know, let's say you, you start looking at stuff, you know, like on Crutchfield or whatever, and you're like, "Oh, I'm gonna buy, say, Focal, Morel," whatever, whatever your taste is, okay? And you're like, "I'm gonna get these thousand dollar tweeters because they cost a thousand dollars." You're starting off with a product instead of a goal, okay? Because for one, those tweeters might not even fit in your car.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
Depending on the size or the shape or whatever, those tweeters might not be best for you.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
It, it doesn't matter that they cost a thousand dollars if they don't fit.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
Uh, let's, let's say, like a Honda Civic.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
Or l- no, actually, you know what? Let's say a Honda Accord, okay? Um, 'cause on the Honda Civic you can actually do a nice three-way system, but on the Honda Accord, you really can't do a three-way system without going custom, okay? On the Honda Accord, y- you can do six and a half inch speakers- And up to one point one inch, 1.2 inch tweeters up in the, in the, in the sail panels.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
Okay? You know, if you got, you got a Honda Accord, I would look on Crutchfield and see what your speaker depth is.
Eddie AlvarezHOST
You can do that with a Camry, you can do that whatever, with a Ford F-150, whatever car you got, you can look up what you're working with, okay? I don't know what, you know, what the speaker depth is on a, on a Toyota Camry off the top of my head, but let's say the max you can go with is three inches.

We're tracking the storm, watching it fall.
speaker_2UNKNOWN
From Crutchfield's grind to Trolley's 2K storms.
speaker_2UNKNOWN
Seneca spinning through the rain arrows.
speaker_2UNKNOWN
Breaking tears.
Wave TheoryHOST
Yeah, exactly.
Wave TheoryHOST
And and so, yeah, I learned a lot about this stuff like, oh, Crutchfield catalogs were another one that I would just like read through and just see what it all was.
Wave TheoryHOST
So really late in high school.
Wave TheoryHOST
Um, I helped dad build a, it was a 6.1 channel surround sound system in that basement.
Trey BiddyHOST
AJ Hill had a 25-yard pass to Chris Marshall.
Trey BiddyHOST
Uh, Hill had a 12-yard pass to Antonio Jordan and a 35-yarder to Courtney Crutchfield.
Trey BiddyHOST
KJ Jackson, here are his notable plays.
Trey BiddyHOST
15-yard pass to CJ Brown, 12-yard pass to CJ Brown, 22-yard touchdown pass to CJ Brown, all on the same drive.
35 MINS LATER
Trey BiddyHOST
That has been the starting wide receivers all camp and going back to the spring.
Trey BiddyHOST
Nothing has really changed there.
Trey BiddyHOST
Um, somebody asked, uh, in one of our questions is, is it time to give up on Courtney Crutchfield? I just think that Crutchfield's playing behind a guy who's really good in Chris Marshall, and I think Cr- Crutchfield's time will come next year and, and also he'll, he'll play a role this year.
Trey BiddyHOST
But, like, Courtney Crutchfield, Donovan Faapelle, and Jamari Hawkins, that's three wide receivers.
speaker_0HOST
But the point is, is these companies have systems in place where they're still going to get something out of that product that you sent back.
JimGUEST
If you look at Crutchfield's website and I know a lot of people like to use Crutchfield to try things and a very good company but they have a ton of open box and stuff on their site and usually at a discounted price that you can buy and that's typically things that people have returned for one reason or another.
JimGUEST
It doesn't mean that it's not a good product.
JimGUEST
It just wasn't right for what that person was trying to do.
