[MSCW list] Thanks (re Miata radio problem)

Thanks to Paul Monte-Bovi, Bryan Blackwell, Larry Wilbur  and "Mimi" all of 
whom responded to my inquiry last week about buzzy Bose  speakers in my '03 
Miata.  The  consensus seems to be that the Bose  system buzzes, booms and 
produces generally poor sound all the time,  but is significantly worse in 
damp weather (true) that affects the speaker  cones, and there's probably not 
much that can be done about it short of  replacing the speakers with 
expensive Clearwater speakers, a brand I had never  heard of before.  They 
directed me to a website, _sfoskett at slf.gweep.net_ (mailto:sfoskett at slf.gweep.net) 
, which seemed to  confirm their conclusion.  The info is particularly 
disappointing since the  Bose system was supposedly a "premium" item that came 
standard only on the  fancier model Miatas.  I guess I'll just live with the 
annoyance, but at  least the responses saved me some wasted time and costs in 
searching for the  cause.  (I'd still be glad to hear from anyone who has 
encountered the same  problem or, better yet, a cheaper solution.)

Hi All,

Just a quick reminder about  next weeks meeting. This will be our second at 
Silver Diner. The food is good,  the space is good, and hopefully the 
weather is great!

We have a great  new centralized location for the monthly club meetings. 
It's the 
Silver  Diner, Tyson's Corner, VA - Wednesday, May 1 at 7:00pm. This is 
right 
off  of the 495 beltway on Route 7 - just a couple of blocks. It should be 
a  
great solution for MD folks southbound, DC folks westbound,  as well  as VA 
folks 
north bound and east bound. 

The Silver Diner is a  modern take on the classic diner - Cadillac chrome 
and 
all! (Only, the  rollerskating waiters are missing!) They have great shakes 
and 
good menu  ranging from summer salads with fruit to bison burgers to bacon 
and 
eggs.  http://www.silverdiner.com/ 

Members will start gathering in the  parking lot between 6-7pm. We will 
have new 
cars to view in the lot to be  followed by dining, a guest speaker and the 
general meeting. 

Hope  to see you there!

Our next Nova tech session is scheduled for  the 13th of May. 
For many of us this is perfect timing as our first  autocross of the year 
is the following weekend. Exciting!

I have for sale 4 Yokohoma Advan Neova  AD08 Tires, size 255/40-17, with a 
build date of Week 37, 2009.? They have  half a season of autocross and 
about 15,000 street miles on them.? These were  used on an NC (third-generation) 
Miata, which is very easy on tires.? The wear  is pretty even, and there's 
lots of tread left. ?I think these would work well  for an STR NC build or 
an STX RX-8 build.

The parts are located in  Montgomery Village/Gaithersburg, MD.

I'd like $100 for the  set.
