Hi guys, I'm the newest member of the crew, I want to upgrade my sound system so I went to this forum to exchange some ideas with everyone here. My hobbies are playing computer games, watching sci-fi movies, and reading books. I do hope to get along with everyone.

Hello all! My name is Dan and I purchased a 10” DSS Ethos subwoofer a couple years back and I am finally ready to get it installed. I know absolutely NOTHING about this sub. The person I bought it from I have no contact with, however he recommended that I purchase the Crescendo Audio Symphony series S1500.1 amplifier. Like I said I know nothing about this subwoofer. I was wondering what specs I should use as far as building a enclosure. I have a 2013 Focus St Hatchback. I would appreciate any and all feedback as to what kind of enclosure it requires. Thank you all ahead of time. Dan

I am a tattooist and body piercier that really loves his music clean clean and loud. I am a responsible boomer as my sound is for me and me alone. I am 45 and got into doing my own systems two years ago. I have done one system only and now redoing. http://www.cardomain.com/id/ptteal I do read the forums everyday but dont post much as I am not a post whore and I have far less info as you guys. I do post as to things I need to know but really it is not on the common things that are posted. Right now I am building my pt so as it can hold 10 amps, 4 subs, 4 midbass, 4 midrange and 8 tweeters. I have lost my left eye this year do to cancer so I am going to put a tv for back…

I mainly signed up to see if one of the many Blacksburg kids here was interested in my setup, but I may stick around if I like this place. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Yep, ya got me to join. Everyone thank aneonrider for that one.

I've been installing systems since the late 80's early 90's as a hobbie. Love all the new ideas and creations that are out there now. Car audio has come a long way! Looking forward to learning something new from this forum!

Hi first post thanks for letting me join . I recently had the following installed in a 1999 C5 Corvette . Kenwood DMX 7706s JL Audio HD 9001/5 Amp Morel Virtus Component 6.5 Soeakers (Front ) Morel Tempo Ultra 602 (Mid) JL Audio 10W3V3-4 Rear Sub ( with adjustable knob) The sound sounds real washed out with no “punch” to it . Any suggestion on what could be the problem .. or amp setting that I should check ? I would really appreciate any help . Driving me crazy ! I included a pic of amp settings .

Hey guys Casey Here, im from Lake Charles louisiana. Im in the middle of a build right now and just enjoy the forums. Lots of knowledge in here. hope to meet everyone that is close to me!

Just coming to this forum, it is not clear what rules are in place. What is forbidden me to do. Please tell us

Just threw two x18 v.2s in my Yukon in a 15 cu ft box on an SCV4000. Very impressive, but I developed coil rub after just a month. It's really strange because there is no felt rub when you press down on the cone.. Actually, it only rubs when the coil is cold. After I pump one second of true RMS to it, there is magically no rub.. The other sub is fine. I monitor the clipping light religiously and the only time I see a red flash is on the attack peak of bass notes. From what I have researched, a slightly flashing clipping light is pretty normal and a fast flashing light is slightly overpowered. Solid red is clipping. \ As far as I can tell the sub is fine when p…

Hey guy's! As the title states I am new to the forum. This is my first post on any forum, so....be easy on me on this post and future posts lol. So just wanted to say wassup and glad I found SSA! I have been reading threads on every sight imaginable, just reading and learning about the do's and don'ts of car audio. Also, a ton about different brands and all that good stuff. Stumbled upon SSA and heard nothing but awesome reviews and personal experiences with the company as a whole. Again, glad I found them! After drooling over pictures of several SSA products for 2 years, I finally purchased my first ssa products. Just got 4 evil 6.5 mids and they look awesome! They aren'…

Hey, I'm new to the world of subs/amps and all this. I am buying a new truck soon, don't have a good sound system, I'm wondering what would be good for someone like me I LOVE bass, absolutely love it. What combination of subs/amps would suffice? And can anyone make a guide on how to set it all up once I get the subs/amp? If you need me to be more descriptive about what I like, I can be. something around 2000 watts(both subs together) would be great. (remember I know nothing about subs except that they produce lovely bass)

Hey guys! I'm the one that made the "How to" on tinsel lead repair which you guys sticked here: http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=19673 So, I figured I'd finally come in here and introduce myself. Im 28 years old, Live in Houston Texas, and have always loved anything related to car audio. Heres some of what I had done to a 1986 Pontiac Firebird I used to own. Everything custom built and installed by me. "The Bird" Amp Rack. Various amps, Distribution blocks, Also a capacitor due to headlight dimage and less wear on the alternator. (I have black lights in side the amp rack box that shine down on to the speakers at night.) 2, Digital Audio. 1000 …

glas to be here. looking to learn a few things from you old schoolers.

Just wondering has anyone used the Zapco amps with built in DSP. I was informed that they are the same ones minidsp uses and could I use these for an active set up?

Hows every doing! My names Kyle I live in clarkston MI and just got my 2 12" Zcons finally installed. This is in a 2002 z28 Camaro haha yes I've seen Steve's walled off maro but I could never do that to my car. Anyway I'm usuing a soundstream xxx6500d for the subs now and they slam! There in a crappy box to that rests on my folded down back seats. Working on a box for my Ttop well box is actually a t line tuned to 36hz. Blows away a lot of my friends systems besides my buddy Dan who has 6 18" icons in a 4th order hahahaha anyway enough of my talking I'll post some quick pics

Apparently our first three posts are supposed to be here, so I want to jump right in, haha. Don't judge, but I want to wall two fifteens in my 2001 Jetta. I have very minimal experience sadly, and don't care about ruining the car too much. I'll be powering the two DAD BD15s with an arc KS2500.1 I know I'm leaving out some information that's needed or whatever, so ask away. (:

Hey guys, I've been reading for about a year now and figured it was time to contribute back some. I am getting ready to start my new build in my 99 Honda and will be starting a built log this week. I look forward to all the input and enjoy talking to people with the same interests as me.

The vehicle is a 2002 chevy 2500hd extended cab I put a pioneer 6500 in the dash it was cheap and had the features I wanted I bout nvx 6.5 components for the front doors (vsp65 kit) nvx 4x6 for the rear doors run off a pioneer GM-D8604 . I started out making a budget system I picked up a pioneer sub ts-w261d4 and was gonna run it off a older alpine I had in the closet collecting dust MRI-450 I think we'll long story short the sub sounds like a budget sub I tried both ported and sealed pioneers sp…
