Hey all...just come over from caraudio.com, i am still a noob, but trying and learning and reading, watching, etc... I do have some progress pics and such I will post, i am making a glovebox door with a PS2 molded in and visors with flames(3D) Anyways, look forward to learning from you guys and giving back as much as i can when possible JT

To start i think the forum rules are hilarious there was no pulling punches but sensible nonetheless. I drive a 2012 jeep compass with the uconnect and boston acoustic amplified 9 speaker system. I have had a few different sub stages, quite a few different head units and a couple coaxials i have also done around 7 installs for experts and am learning everything as time goes on. I listen to literally every type of music which makes picking my equipment interesting and i am also broke thereby making it even harder. Last but not least if it wwas not abundantly clear i cannot punctuate or use grammar to dave my life im really trying here for y'all because it is in the rules b…

Hey whats up guys I just registered a few days ago but I finally decided to make my first post. Well I'm 16 years old and I drive a 04 Chevy Trailblazer. I dont have much done to it at all. So far this is my current setup: Headunit: Pioneer DEH-P980BT Speakers: some ok Pioneer 6.5's my cousin gave to me for free. They aren't that great but they sound way better than my stock ones anyway. I'm saving up for a better front stage though. Sub: 12" Fi Q in a ported box i made that is 2.5 cuft^3 after displacement tuned to 32hz. But since its my first box I have ever made I dont know if it really is lol. I'll try to get pics of it tomorrow though. Amp: Right now my sub is powere…

Hi my name is michael from Fresno Ca. I have 2012 fusion right now, simple set up of some Type R's until I decide route for real build. I hope to learn a lot and thank you ahead of time for looking.

Sup Im from Louisville, Ky. And Just thought I would say what up!

looking for suggestions for upgradeing from my 1 havoc 15 to 2 12s or 2 15s or even 1 18....my budget is about 300$ ...im looking at some obsidians right now.....just looking to be louder than what i got now.....right now im running a 220 amp singer alt...1200 rms hifonics brutus amp and 1 havoc 15 in a 08 grand prix...had it db tested this morning and it hit a 143.1......sub and amp are for sale ...basket is broke on sub but still runs well....about 3 months of play...with proper break in.with box..250$ 150 for amp...its 1 month old

I just purchased a FI Q15 for a sealed application in a 95 Lexus SC coupe. I'll be using the 'spare tire' location for the box and should be able to get at least 2.25 cubic feet of volume. The sub will be driven by a JL Audio HD750/1. This car is basically a show car with big power and I wanted to add some finishing touches to the sound system and I think the FI Q15 will give me what I want ( more sound quality than SPL ). Currently I have a Pioneer AVIC Z110BT headunit, JL Audio ZR650 components in the front, JL Audio C5 6.5 coax's in the back deck being driven by a JL Audio HD600/4. The FI Q15 will be replacing a JL Audio 10W7 that is in a custom box on the left si…

I was told to come on by and say hi, seeing as I'm new to the forum. So, HI!

Hey guys. Wanted to go ahead and start posting some of my old build log from the original stage to current, so I can upload the rebuild this month. I'll link my build log once I set it up ( You can find me on instagram at: @joshdashef1 as well as some other forums. In the mean time... can someone tell me how I can change my profile picture ? It wont let me edit my profile

Alpine CDE HD149BT 390 amp CES alternator 3 XS Power D2400s (1 under the hood) 2 runs of 1/0 ofc wire Alternator power wire and all grounds upgraded to 4/0 2 pair JL C5 Components in the front 2 pair Hertz SV165.1s in the rear 1 ZCON 15 in a 3.8 cuft box tuned to 32 hz in the trunk 2 Alpine PDX F4s powering the highs Rockford T2500.1BDCP This is the best system I've put together. I'm pretty tickled with it. Love the ZCON 15! That thing is an absolute beast and sounds great too. Just wish I had room for a bigger box.

Heya everyone. I'll be here on the forums absorbing as much info as I can. Building a system for my '94 Eagle Talon

Yo i'm a lil' southern boy from charleston SC haha and i was lookin for some help on my system setup. What i have planned so far is a 10" 2 ohm FI Q for my acura rsx. (It's a hatchback and there's nothing between the seats and the trunk) I already have some polk component speakers which will do for now. For the amp situation i was thinkin either a dsc1000.1 ( DSC1000.1 - MB Quart 1 Ch 1000 Watt Amplifier ) for the "Q" and a 4 channel discuss amp for the tweeters and front speakers, or 1 discuss amp, and a sundown audio amp wherever it would be better suited (4 chan. or mono) Sorry if that made no sense. My music prefernce is pretty broad, but i like rap and alot of techno…

Just wanted to say whats up everyone..! I'm new to the site but not new to car audio. I joined the forum to expand my knowledge and hopefully help others..

So I just picked up a box and 2x10 Rockford Fosgate subs for my Ram. So the subs are 4 ohm 150watt RMS each with a peak of 300watt. Here's the problem. I listen to rock mainly so I don't care about a TON of bass, but I do like a good amount. The subs are bridged or whatever, and that's where I don't know what amp to get without spending a fortune. The two subs don't have two wires each I guess that's what bridged means? So my question is, what channel, RMS, ohm all that stuff, what would be the best amp for me? I'm so lost and the audio guy near my house is just trying to make money off of me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just thought I would post to check and see if everything looks alright in my signature. I got an email from denim, so I thought I would come check it out.

Woo hoo I still remember this password as well.

I was into high end audio all my life. Home system is a Nikko Alpha power amp, 480 watts if my memory is right. Nikko betta pre-amp. Can't remember the eq.. Ohm c3 speakers, never heard anything better. For play, a teachnics (can't spell that) cassette player with dbx, a teac 8 head reel to reel (had the large reels, can't remember the size) and a turn table I can't remember. In the care, 78 z28, a Kenwood head unit, 2 linear amps, 8" subs mounted in the rear with some ohm component (6” and 2”) and nothing in front L Moved that to several cars over the years then when I turned 40, 2002, I moved to Hawaii and left all this with a friend. Now, I’m 51, back in the mainland, …

I have a vfl 100.1 American Bass amp with 2 12 inch dual 4 ohm subs. I noticed that my mono amp has 2 positive and 2 negative inputs. Is there a reason it is like that or does it internally bridge it to 1ohm after hooking up both 12inch subs to each terminal? Thank you any help would be appreciated.

Whats up? im just another newbie down in texas. i just sold off my SX12 and got 2 rl-i8s... been trollin around a little bit here and thought i might as well join and jump right in the fun
