Guess I'll start off with my ride, I got a 1999 GMC Yukon 4 DR. Currently I have 2 12' Alpine type Es in a sealed box, with an Alpine 450 watt amp. I have all infinity door speakers. I'm in the process of upgrading to a better system. I'm getting 1 18" Fi BTL (haven't ordered yet), I have a Hifonics 2010D Amp in the mail, and a rockford fosgate 0 gauge amp kit. Just went to home depot today and picked up the wood for the box. It's going to be right at 7.3 cubic feet tuned to right around 32 Hertz. That's all I got for now, and I plan to post some pics up of my current set up, and build pics for the new one. I will also be doing the big 3, and any other advise on h…

Hello! Came to see what's going on - CYV says that I'll love it here too!

Hi, I'm Mick, new to this forum, not to audio...was an installer for about 16 years. Done a bunch of huge installs, including all the show vehicles for the shop I was at. Been out of it a couple years, and just miss the scene....Actually came on here because I was looking for a new sub to play with for my daily driver...just pre-ordered a Sundown SA-8, really intrigued me. Anyways, hope to get involved in some discussions on here, really love to talk audio!

Quick question. If I have two subs at 1 ohm each and they were wired into a mono amp with 4 connectors, would the impendance come to 1 ohms since they were technically in parallel?

Hey Guys. Just droppin a couple lines to say HI from Alabama. Been around car audio for a long time. Not too long ago I joined SSA. Hope to learn more about our great hobby!

Hi, my name is Tasos, i'm 22 years old and i'm from Greece (Europe). I'm busy with car audio for about 3 years. In my country we have created a greek caraudioclub. There are many guys here that are crazy with car audio. *My English is not so good. I'm sorry for this... I hope you can understand me and have a nice time here.

Guess I am punching the clock now.

Stopping by to say hello. Im from TX and run old school HiFonics amps of the VIII and have some VII stuff as well. Always looking to pick up those amps so if you know anyone selling them please let me know. Thanks, Eric

hey guys. new to this forum, not new to the world. im over on floridaspl.com as well. i just recently came over to give my 2 cents on a little disagreement some of your "tech masters" had on a malibu build. a bit about me. i started competing sometime in late 2009. in 2010 i managed to win florida state finals, southeast regionals, and took 2nd place at world finals for the 120-129.9 bass race class. i currently have 4 hertz spl show 15"s in a wall, powered by #22 of 50 DD Z-SE as a substage. my front stage consists of 2 sets of hertz hsk 165 xls, and 2 spl show 8"s powered by a hertz ep-4x. by no means the best, but its a solid work in progress, and one of these days i'l…

Sad and exciting day. I just boxed up my 04 RE 12" XXX to send it to it's new owner. I also just placed my order for an 06 RE 12" XXX. I found this site during my hunt for a new amp for my new sub.

I found this site on www.caraudio.com and I just thought i would find out if this site could help me with some of my car audio problems and questions. OH by the way my name is Derek...Hope to learn some new things here...LATA

Hi all! Just another new guy here, I have been into the scene for a few years though. I'm attempting to make the jump from fabricator to designer/tuner/fabricator. I have built cars from the ground up for years, even went to school for it, but have never done the audio side of the build. I just got a new toy, a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 regular cab. I know a regular cab isn't the optimal choice do to the lack of space, but I couldn’t pass up the deal. I have rims, tires, lift, go-fast parts, and everything else in the garage or on its way, so onto the audio for me. My experience in the audio world has pretty much consisted of handing money to someone and saying “Make it lou…

so here is how i found this site. being from charlotte nc i knew about sundown and SI. i blew up my kicker kx1200.1 yesterday and not wanting that nasty sloppy power it was giving out decided to get a sundown 1000d. i picked it up about an hour and a half ago plus some 0ga wire. i have to say it isnt as powerful as the kicker but the soud difference is night and day. the kicker was very sloppy and had a very uncontrolled sound to it, if that makes any sense. the sundown has surprised me in clarity and the output is plenty for my 2 type r 12's. now its just time to rebuild my box because its put together like crap, and sounds like it to.

This will be my first time trying to do anything other than just straight swapping speaker for speaker. I have a '96 Jeep Cherokee Sport that i would like to stick a woofer in the "cubby hole" similar to this http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f11/write-up-97186/ . Except that i would like to avoid spray foam and just fiberglass the cavity. Is this feasible? Would it last? Also I would like to 'glass a replacement panel for the car instead of just hack up the original and hide the woofer. This is a Daily beater vehicle until i get around to finishing my classic car... and will probably remain a daily vehicle even after that. I was originally looking at SoundQubed's HD…

Hey I'm new to SSA, found it from the forums link on FI website. Just saying hello form Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.

Hey everyone! Guess I'll start with the basics: Car: 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GT2 (Basically stock, although I would like to mod it for performance somewhat) Stereo: HU: Kenwood something or other with USB and aux on the front (not bad, but planning on switching out for a Clarion touchscreen) Infinity Kappa coax 6.5s in the front doors (2-way) Infinity Kappa coax 6x9s on the back deck (2 way) Some random Kenwood 12s in the trunk (bought em off a friend that was getting out of the army and needed the cash) Autotek 4-way (200 total, I can't remember the model or exact specs, it's been a while) Kenwood 8013D for the subs Me: Deployed (yes, it's ghey), and will be without my…

Demin asked that I drop in and check out the boards. My name is Pete and live in Maryland. I own a 97 Ford Explorer XLT w/ 121k and a 2000 Ford Contour SVT that's getting a new engine w/ 5,800 on the clock. I love working on my car to get a good blend of performance, appearance and audio. I do almost all my own work - just pulled the 2.5 engine out and dropping in a 3.0. I should be handing many a car their asses once it's done. I wont bore you with all the details but here are a few for my SVT: Silver Frost Midnight Blue leather interior process of dropping in a 3 liter engine SPEC stage 1 clutch SPEC flywheel Torsen LSD BAER brakes SHM long tube headers Bassani cat-…
