    SPL vs SQ

    As most of you know i am doing an imc plan for an audio enclosure company. During my research i read that cars equipped for SPL cannot play normal music. I want to know if that is true. I need to do a a technolgy review and i want to mke sure i know the difference between systems designed for SPL vs systems designed for SQ.

    History

    Alright I need your help again...but this time i did some research before so hopefully my questions shouldn't anger anyone. I have been doing some research on the history of car audio subwoofers and the progression of technological advances with wiring amplifiers and other stuff. But could someone please help me make a short version of it. I need to creat a section for my imc plan. Not quite sure what to include in it. lik i want to start with the first sub-woofer..how did it work....then explain the newest most advanced and compare the two. just want some insight before i start.

    SPL vs SQ

    alright from what i read and what i was just told. SPL systems are designed to obtain high decibal readings. From what i read in an article about car audio these systems are not able to play normal music. I knowthe difference between the two main systems(SPL and SQ) and you cannot have a system that favours both. A system either is designed for spl or sq. If i wanted to build a system devoted soley to spl, what kind of equipment would i want to install. i dot need names or prices but lets say i used my fiances system as a comparision. he has fi btl 12" 1500 rms, saz-2000D and bravox speakers(not quite sure which). Which system would this set-up be best for?

    Ideas for new spring build

    Icy_chris and I are going to start on my car in the spring. I want to get some ideas first on what kind equipment I should be looking at. I have included some basic ideas and sizes as well my car and the stuff I know about. If you need more info, icy_chris will know more. 2004 Cavalier. no big 3 upgrades yet, but I plan on it. Chris wants to give me kickers, but I said that I want a btl like his, or something simialr, but I dont want anything bigger then 10 inches. All four of my speakers are after-market, but i dont know what they are, i know the front are rockfords, but they were christopher so he would know more I am taking his old sony deck to replace my stock one. I just want a little power and better sound, not like his car, but something with some female sophistaction but could still shock the hell out of any wanna-be stereo guy. I was hoping to get my hands on a sundown amp like christophers, he has saz2000, but like i said i dont need one that big. Just thought i would get some opinions before we start buying anything big. Thanks guys
  12. Icy_chris's b-day is sept 27. Happy birthday.........hope you like your present.

    Homework help!!!!!!!!!!!&#

    thank you for the advice but my major isnt business. i have a dual major in tourism and marketing...which around where i live opens lots and lots of doors...and high paying doors. and some people tend to forget that im learning as i go along. and usually this project is done in relation to something touristy but because my fiance is starting a business i weaseled my teachers into letting me to this project for him. and i have a legal background which helps alot. but i do understand where your coming from i did half my education degree already.
  15. Ok i need some help.....i am doing a business and marketing plan(IMC) for a car audio company(mostly enclosures) and when i went to a nameless place(audio store here) i asked the guy what the difference is between ported and sealed box He said nothing....now i know there is a difference i just not sure the reasons...i need to be able to explain it in my presentation in november.. if you use acrynoms or intials(spl or rms) please tell me what they mean so i can use them. i am expected to know all about whatever i present.

    Homework help!!!!!!!!!!!&#

    this homework i am doing relates to a class and a real life application im doing this for a real business as well. thats why i need to know this and i would like to know it too since i help christopher build and so his stereo stuff. I just want to know the basic answers like one can be built to a certain frequency. As i am most likely taking a set-up into my presentation i need to know how it works. I am also doing a small business management class which relates to this project so thats why i need the set-up.

    Homework help!!!!!!!!!!!&#

    i went there but i find it easier to get a "human" explanation because like i said if i get called on anything during the presentation i have to be aqble to explain it to someone who has no idea what a sub is . but i have used that site alot during my intial reports.

    Ideas for new spring build

    i just christophers bravox speakers grrr shoudl have bought some too...oh well i really want a set now. i cant wait to hear them in action just waiting for the sub, i have to go to havre to pick it up....glad i have citizenship or else that would be a pain in the ass. i can't wait to start mine. i may have changed my mind i think i want one 12" instead of 2 10" because i heard a friends two 10" kickers and i think that even one 12" sounded better and clearer.. I want sound quality not loud...i don't listen to music that demands loud hits, just want a more clear sounding set-up right now my cavalier is lacking in any "cool" department.
