    Ya whatever. I'm new here, I've been around home audio more than car audio, I'm running a sweet rig currently in my loft (HK AVR 235, Klipsch Kg2 Speakers, CD changer) and hope to add an IB sub shortly. My ride is a 1990 Acura Integra GS, but I also frequently drive my family's 1995 Land Rover Discovery (series 1). I'm 16 and I really love to run. Over the summer I put in 300+ miles plus a triathlon; cross country season I'm not sure how many more miles I ran. During XC though I badly stressed my hip and finally couldn't keep running through the pain. As much as it hurt me, I had to call it quits early on in the season. The good news is that I am now healthy an…

    I have been lurking around here for about 3 months, and most of my questions have been answered by reading through these threads, so I have made no post, yet. I found the SSA site through a myspace group, caraudio:RESPEK. I have had an interest in car and home audio for the last 6 years, within the last two years I have learned a fair amount more than I once believed possible. I would like to continue learning, and thus I am here.

    Hey all. I have read some things I would like to know more about. Especially what people are doing with enclosure builds. I probably won't have much to add to any conversation, but I wanted to say that I am watching. I am a DCON 12" owner as well and will be looking at what others have done and experienced in their enclosure builds. Keep the info flowin!!!

    Like the title says, I've always had systems in my cars and followed forums like SSA and SMD back in high school, for the past couple of years I've cut back and now I'm started to put together a new setup for the spring. Currently I'm running a Kicker ZX700.5 with Diamond Audio components in the front doors, Alpine Type R 6x9's in the rear deck and a DC lvl 3 12".

    Well, despite my reluctance to join another forum, my brother supa_c spends hours on here, so i figured it had to be better than caraudio.com's forum. I probably wont be posting nearly as much as he does, since I'm usually working or busy tinkering my own website at http://blacktee.net anyways, i like the emoticons, so thats a good start....

    Hello my name is Jason. I have been searching through multiple forums for information and have joined a few that I have found worthwhile joining. Currently I own a 2008 Tundra double cab. I am currently running an Alpine headunit. Morel Tempo Ultra 6.5" separates on a Zapco ST-X4 SQ. My substage is a single Stereo Integrety HST-15 in a ported box tuned to 25 Hz. It is on a Taramps MD 5000.1. I have a Dayton Audio DSP-408 I plan to install soon so I can run the Morels active. I am using the Tundra as a test vehicle for when I can afford a new Jeep Wrangler and can apply my knowledge to a full system build. I look forward to all the information and answers I will find here…

    Hey everyone! Greetings from good ol' Las Vegas...thanks for having me. I've been on this site for a few weeks browsing and reading, and I definitely like what I see. I found you guys after being directed to purchase a SSA DCon 10 for my son's Ford Ranger build and now I'm looking to turn my attention (and wallet) to my truck. While I'm not new to car audio, I'm not super advanced either. I know what things like qts, vas and bl mean and how they will affect my choice of gear and desired application, but I leave the overly technical stuff to others. I think my ear outweighs my hands, and the only serious car I actually tried to compete with (SQ) was built for me back in 1…
