(Rembmer build logs and videos are always better for us) Its good to post a buildlog along with a written revire and impressions of the product, before and after installation. My truck definately suffers from road noise. 5. You must tell us something about yourself that nobody on this forum knows about you ummm my GF got me pistons tickets from the radio station, im going to see the pistons tommorrow YAHHH!!

im interested in getting my hands on some aa mids whenever they are released, but i realize is strictly local dealer only now. where can i find some dealers near detroit?

1000wrms 3.5 cuft 28hz very musical, gets VERY low. peaks around 60 i believe, i have the top end eq'd, +2 db at 100hz, i like it like this alot. i think i have the filter at 120hz? mids come in at 80hz. edit: wow forum is slow. i guess i responded to this thread about a month ago.

1000 watts, 3.5 cubes ported to 30hz. sounds awesome.

well i built the box this morning. i took pics of my trunk yesterday, but when i upload them to the net via my phone, they are not showing. just got a new cheapo free phone, dont ever buy a samsung t9 something, its lammmmmeeeeee. Built a wall for my amps, and im in the process of installing everything but it decided to rain so im inside waiting it out.

I checked the stcky and noticed a mention of the Mids and if any upgrades were apparent. Saw the picture of an AA mid with a carbon fiber/metal cone. Im really curious about how this product is going to be handled. I currently have some AA mids in my front doors and am very happy, and just came to the realization that i may not be able to purchase anymore! 1. Are they still gonna be offered? 2. Are they gonna be improved, and by how much? 3. Can we expect the same awesome performance and price? Any information will be greatly appreciated! BTW the new product line looks really awesome, especially those Havoks.

ahh see, my aa mids are fiberglassed into a sealed enclosure inside my door =D It looks completely stock, but i built the whole thing inside the door and it cant be removed unless sawed into tiny bits. Ive been thinking abouty throwing 3 or 4 more pairs into my car >=) Maybe a pair in some kickpanels, the rear doors, and rear deck, if anything. As for bleding in my sub with my frontstage, i put togethor a test tone cd in intervals of 10, from 10hz to 150hz, and also a sweep through the same range. My mids are outstanding in the 100-150hz range, my sub is strong in the 60hz and lower, but from 60hz-100hz things tend to get a little weak, no matter the xover point, which is pretty overlapped as it is right now. Maybe this new box im building might have an impact on that gap. I took a quick snap of my trunk today, but it was mid afternoon, really bad natural lighting. I will be sure to get some great ones tommorrow, and also take pics of my trunk build on sat morning!

go ported to spec from my experiences, rl-p's SHINE with portedness. if you can, drop the mids even lower to around 60-70... music sounds better the lower you drop the mid xover point IMO. we have a smiliar system, ss in the trunk, aa mids, and same HU. Ive been listening to my mids with no hpf for the last cpl days and they sound great(but distort easier). I usually keep them around the 80 mark, but dropping them to 60 is bo problem. As for playing a subwoofer to 50 hz only, isnt that babying it a lil? yah i keep my lpf @ 100hz, since the lowend on this thing is pretty strong, i try to eq a lil around the 80-100hz mark to flatten it out. Well as it stands i guess im going with 3.5 @ 30 hz

hey guys! My job is being great and allowing me to use the shop to build a box this saturday! I plan to finally FINISH my trunk! As in finish, i mean, 2 amps, a battery, anbd my current sub box are free floating in my trunk X_X So with this opportunity i can build a box to specifications. Right now its(rl-p 15 btw) in a sealed box somewhere under 2 cu ft, not sure exactly. The site says optimal 3 cu ft. Now here is the question, should i stay sealed and build a box to specs, or should i go ported? I enjoy the balance my subwoofer gives me now, hits the lows, and also extends a bit into the top end to help out my AA mids (80-100). So i would like all the SS fans opinions on this one! Btw i will get some pics up tommorrow of my trunk as it is, and a rouch sketchup of how i want the finished look to be.

awesome work. very impressive. and your box is bigger than the one in my trunk lol

u bet. i plan to upgrade from my rl-p 15 to an 18 this summer, possibly 2 18's, depending on trunk space. i need to get out there and measure and plan.

oh boy, i loved your old install, i remember seeing it somewhere on the net quite a while ago. but anyways, how does the new box sound in comparison to your old one? i cant wait for to properly do my trunk.

i wish i had a couple of rl-8's!!! i would make a badass fiberglass enclosure for them. i think after i graduate from college and buy myself a charger i would definately do that. i would have to ditch my rlp15's cuz they are too loud and they rattled everything in my car loose haha.

i have a 10 as sub for my pc system. sounds pretty nice although it's in the wrong box. just threw it in a 2cf sealed box untill i manage to build something to specs. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i would go all out. build a perfect ported box, laminate it with veneer and stain it to match my satellites. and of course mount an amp right into the rear of the box...if i had the time and money hehe
