    Hi everyone.. I'm a (almost) 42 year old from Ada, Michigan. I've been fascinated with car audio since I was 16. I worked at a car audio retailer for a while, and continue to install as a hobby. I love to design and build subwoofer enclosures. I'm constantly trying different woofer /enclosure combos, which drives my wife up the wall. I truly enjoy listening to different setups in different vehicles.. Every system has its own quirks and qualities, which is what car audio should be about, and what makes it so fun. I drive an '06 KIA Spectra, with a healthy mix of older and newer gear. Glad to be here.. Ken

    I'm socially retarded thanks to an abnormally high IQ that turns me into a useless potato of a genius. Medical professionals call me Autistic, I'm not convinced yet. If I ever say some overly dumb [excrement] just know I'm not trying to be stupid, I literally just don't understand what's going on. With that out of the way, I live near Seattle. I've been involved in car audio in some manner since I was a kid, lately I've been trying to learn anything and everything I possibly can about automotive specific sub-bass acoustics. In the last year I've gone through more drivers than I can remember, designed and built more enclosures than I can count, and have been investin…

  13. Started by geolemon,

    Just wanted to introduce myself- I'm an active forum participant on a whole slew of forums, primarily www.caraudioforum.com (top 10 poster) and www.caraudiotalk.com (moderator), and about 15 others... At any rate, I've been into car audio since I was about 15 years old, and I'm turning 30 this spring (booooo!). That's a long time... I've donned many hats over the years, from installer, to business owner, to pure enthusiast, experimenter, designer, etc. I'm currently involved in launching a new company called Better Audio... It's interesting work, from the business side... but I can't wait to get back into a more heavily technical role. Just got back from CES, and visi…

    Some of you might already know me from Youtube, for those who don't I "Bass-out" cutting-edge bass music for a bunch of the basshead peeps. I don't have a vehicle or nothing, but I do have a custom system in my room that puts some car systems down hard lol. My system consist of 4 12" mids, 6 5" mids, 4 2" silk dome tweets. Powered by a Denon-AVR3803 for the mids and I have a small 200 watt amp for the tweets. The bass power comes off the Denon too. I used a phase converter on the right and left channel and brought it down to 4 ohms & use a low pass filter from a salvaged home theatre sub. For my bass I converted my closet into a giant 6th order, with 3 12" drivers (MT…
