Hi, I'm new to SSA but I'm on lots of other forums (12volt, clublexus, lexusownersclub, b20vtech, ect.) under the same screen name. I have completed a few very basic automotive audio setups in the past but I figure this is probably a great place to stay up to date. I also build custom enclosures for friends and sometimes other people with deep pockets. I'm unemployed at the moment so I may be on here often for info, advice and general forum BS. My current vehicle is a 2002 Lexus GS300 with a Kenwood DNX7100 HU wired up to a soundstream vangogh and JL500 amp pushing Infinity Kappa Perfect 6.5 components upfront and Polk Audio MMC6500 tweeters and crossovers paired wi…

Hi everyone, I'm Air Force stationed in Japan and decided to make an account here after taking a long break from audio in general.

Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself. I heard about this forum from Denim, who is also a member over at MBworld.org. I drive a 1990 Mercedes 300ce (same coupe model that denim drives). Check out the pics at the bottom of this post. I am currently installing and planning my new system which includes the following components: Head Unit: Nakamichi CD-400 Front Speakers: Focal Polyglass 165 V3E slim 3-way components Rear Speakers: Focal Polyglass 100 V-slim 2-way components (4" mid) Subwoofer: Infinity Kappa Perfect 10 VQ (installed via infinite baffle) Amp #1: JL Audio 500/5 (for subwoofer and fronts via bi-amp) Amp #2: JL Audio e2150 2 channel amp (for rear fill only) Eq…

im coming here from now on, the guys over at ca.com are pucking post whoring retards... thats all

Picked up a Re XTX 5000.1 to run a 15" Z V.3. Right now i'm running a rockford t400-4 to 2 sets of t1675-s. I just put a new 170amp H.O alt and my lights are already dimming. With the new sub arriving friday i will be putting the Re in and don't think this batt will hold up. Any suggestions on a good batt that will keep this thing running smooth?

Hello all, I'm not new to mobile audio, but it sure feels like it. Ran my last setup fo ten years or so. Traded the Yukon for a Land Rover, now I hafta start over. Just feelin lost, the names I used to know don't appear to be what they once were. I have never dealt with comps before, now I have a 3way set in the front and 2way in the back to replace as they are shot. I have decided that a 10" DCON is what will be out back. I just hafta figure out which way to go on mid/high. If I ask stupid/tired questions please bare wth me. Thanks, Kevin

Hi Guys I am a newbie from Scotland in the U.K Stumbled on your site when i put in RE SE 12 v3 into my search engine I already have one of these but they are hard to come by in the U.K and i need another one noticed one of the members has one on hear for sale so thought i would join say hello and cross my fingers that somebody will take pity on me and post one over the pond for me anyway thanks guys Really nice site yous have

Just checking in. The last amp I installed in my own car was a Hifonics that was made in the USA and MB Quarts were the speakers to have. Yup, I'm gonna say it, times have changed. After a few weeks of catching up on what has been going on in the car audio world for the last 20+ years, by lurkin' the forums, I landed here. I'd like to say "Thank You" to all of SSA for providing a great place to gather information, ideas and purchase equipment.

Looks like a nice forum you guys have here. Just registered, thought I'd say hello. My setup : -CarPC -Sony XS-HF167 components -15'' Fi Q, ported, 3.5 Ft^3 @ 33Hz -Mark Antony 800.4 -Autotek SX1200X

Whats up all, just thought I would make a noob post here. Another site to add to my ever growing list of places to learn from. Hope to learn alot.

Hello Some of you may know me from other forums seems like a cool place.

Hello everyone Long time viewer first time post lol here to learn new things and here to get LOUD

Hello All, I'm still an amateur (not quite a noob) in the car audio game, but I enjoy learning. It looks like you have a great forum here. I just ordered 2 12" D1 XCons to go in the trunk of my Pontiac G6. It feels like Christmas is coming 2 months early!! Yeehaaa!! From what I have read the SSA subs get nothing but praise, so I can't frikkn wait! I haven't done a ton of research on this yet, but I'll ask it here anyway. How would you recommend I configure my subs in the trunk? I have roughly 4ft^3 to play with. This leaves very little space on either side of the box for air to push into the passenger compartment with the back seats folded down. I also h…

So I am not really "new" to forums I started out on a different forum and just got tired of all the B.S. over there and went looking for a more informative forum for my car audio needs. Said forum seemed to be more about talking shit about someones set up if they didn't have a certain brand of equipment and not enough helping each other out. Any ways not trying to rant just giving some of my forum exp. I have been watching this forum for awhile now and it seems to be a lot more informative so I am glad to be a new member thanks. I live in Spokane WA. but I was born and raised in Santa Barbara CA. If you would like to know anything else about me just ask

Hello all. I'm on a few other forums under the same name. I'm the FNG here though.

Hello everyone, I am working on overhauling my current 2007 Civic coupe install to a comp worthy trunk class build. The brains of the system is a Sony CDX-C90/ XDP-210EQ combo. A McIntosh powered (MC425 and MC427) Exodus/ Vifa front stage is in the stock locations. The current sub-stage is JBL GT4-12's powered by a Kicker ZX1000.1. The electrical is stock except for a single run of 1/0 KnuKoncepts cable. The overhaul will still include a McIntosh powered front stage, but the subs and subs powerplant will get yanked out in favor of 15's(or maybe triple 12's) and a 3-5kW amp. I am shooting for 150's. Electrical is first on the list...

Hey everyone, Finally decided to sign up here at ssa audio forums. Ive been lurking ROE ever since the beginning of its time, but knew of SSA as well. Figured I better get a start and check out these forums since Sundown Audio rocks this part of the net. But all good. Hope to meet some of you on here. Thanks and take care!
