They are mic’d up. The mics made it seem like they are talking way louder than they are.

How does real turf fan know what the car’s headlights look like?

Wait wait wait… so they’re saying a group of people forced a drug addict to overdose on heroin by force, then shot him in the face, then placed the gun in his hands and wrote a suicide note?

Yeah, consider me skeptical.
Yes but the Big 10 is super duper gay.

To be fair, he doesn’t speak English very well and probably doesn’t fully understand what he’s saying. He couldn’t speak it at all when he was drafted, so whatever he knows he’s learned in 3 years or so.

So trashy on so many levels.
What is trashy about car audio? Home audio has a subwoofer too, you know.

It’s trashy when someone is blaring music with several 15s in their trunk and waking up the whole neighborhood. I agree. But OP specifically said he just wants some low end for his music.

If you heard your favorite music in my car, you would be blown away with the sound quality and change your tune.

Absolutely correct. But you won't convince the numpties in here. Those of us who are "audiophiles" really enjoy a complete listening experience much the same way that a guy who likes red Corvettes HAS a red corvette. My sub is a small JL 8. I call it "listening bass", as opposed to "show off" bass. Four pair of Focal separates with their crossover round out the system. It is crispy clean.
Nice. I have Focals in my car too. Love it.

A subwoofer is a crucial piece to any audio system. Not to knock pictures off the wall when you pass by, but for playing low frequencies in the music. Any good car audio system has a subwoofer, even from the factory.

Imagine how a home audio system would sound with no subwoofer.

To the OP, like you, I like a good sound quality subwoofer rather than one that is going to be super loud but sound like crap. Sound quality subwoofers are referred to as “SQL” subs and subwoofers that are meant for loudness are referred to as “SPL” subs. That may help you in your search.

In my car, I have one 10” Image Dynamics IDQ10 V4 subwoofer, which is meant for sound quality. Also, a sealed box is better for clean, accurate bass, but it’s quieter than a ported box which is meant for loud boomy bass. It’s about $240.

Like the Image Dynamics sub, the Dayton Audio HO 10” subwoofer is also known as being a fantastic sound quality subwoofer for a good price.

You can research those two subs and SQL subs in general and maybe that will help you in the right direction. You’ll also need a decent amp for those.

JL Audio JD500/1 is a good amp at a good price that is perfect for powering those subs.

Or if you want something easy, look for a compact powered subwoofer. It’s all in one. The amp is built in and it comes in a slim box. It’s not going to get as loud as even those SQL subs I recommended, but it’s cheaper and easier. Something like the JBL BassPro Nano:

I know he’s a fan favorite, but if there’s melting over Jose Alvarado then how are you going to stomach a full rebuild?

If the organization does what needs to be done and collects as many assets as possible, eventually you’ll have a winning team that’s hopefully in contention for a title and you’ll forget about the fringe players that were traded.

That crossed my mind. But how much money do they actually make selling flowers at an intersection?

And it’s one thing if it was just people selling something… but the fact that they’re everywhere and they all sell flowers and they all have a kid with them makes me think it’s obviously some sort of operation going on rather than just individuals trying to make some money.
I see this all the time in Houston. Does this happen everywhere? And they always have a kid with them which makes me immediately think they are there for sympathy. And when I sense they’re trying to play on people’s emotions, it feels gross and exploitative and makes me wonder if there is more going on here, as if it’s part of some larger operation. Then I wonder if it’s even the woman’s kid.

Does anybody here have any insight about this? What’s really going on here?

Not my photo:

That’s a misconception. Sure, some may be liberals, but most are republicans who can’t take living in those blue states anymore.
Yes. He’s being touted as the potential GOAT but he’s not the GOAT at either pitching or hitting.

Like you said, it’s incredible that he’s so good at both because of how incredibly rare that is, but if he was only known as a pitcher or only known as a hitter, he wouldn’t be talked about at quite the level he is now.
