Newbie Sign IN

Guess I better sign in here, since I already posted somewhere else first...oops. I have severe GAS(Gear Acquisition Syndrome).... Was MECP certified in High School. Installed throughout college, both home and car. Got out of the game in around 1998.... I collect mostly Zed, Orion, and Phoenix Gold amps...few others like the Alpine 3566, and the Denons with the funky heat sinks.... Also collect speakers...favorites are the JBL "1000watt" pro based drivers, and Orion carbon fibers. Would love to find some of the old Autotek subs....the ones with the BTS logo on the dust cap. I know they arent anything special(regular oem speakers), but just the fact I havent even seen one o…

First let me start off by saying that i am a huge fan of this forum. I have been snooping around for quite a while before i signed up to be a member. I am a big supporter of companies like Sundown Audio, SSA, IA, because i feel like it is a better product that is the underdog in the mainstream person's eye. I am ready for a new set-up because i down-sized to a 4 door honda civic from a larger SUV. I am looking for a single 12" subwoofer with good SPL that i can use in a daily driver application. I will be running the sub off of either a SAZ-1000d or the new SAX-1200d at either 1 ohm or 2ohms, whichever meets the subwoofer's specifications better. I am very interested in t…

First off i just to start by saying hello to everyone here at the ssa community. My name is Tommy and i have been studying these forums for some time now. I have a minor question upon my entering the community, i did not want to place this in the wrong place considering this is my first post. Well here goes *shoot* Looking for the best 12 inch subwoofer + box for under 200$. Will run off of a 1000 watt Sony Xplod XM1652z ( It's all ive got for right now and i plan to replace it real soon, i know of all the bad terrible things but it was given to me for free). I listen to a lot of dub step/techno. The Pioneer TS-W302R 12 and sealed box i bought of my buddy for kicks and gi…

Hi my Name is Jay am a electrical engineer I am running a all kicker system zx1500.1 with a zx350.4 with the kicker dual l7 box soon to be powered by a dc power 275 amp SP alternator all in my little 04 mailbu i got kids so i couldn't go to big

Sup fellas. Figured I'd go ahead and introduce myself. Don't have a whole lot to say so I'll just talk a bit about my system. Currently have 2 dual 2ohm sa-12's. Powered by a crunch 1500.1. Bought this for 80 bucks when I upgraded from my previous system, so it's just temporary. Very soon I'll be purchasing a pair of saz-1500d's which I'm very excited about. I'm currently working on my electrical so I'll be ready for the monster amps. I also posted in the electrical section asking for some help on electrical.

Just thought I'd say hey... Found this from the incriminator audio site. About to get some death penalty subs so figured I would come to this forum. Also a member off smd and have seen this forum name thrown around a bit.

hey guys, another new Michigander here. i'm from Metro Detroit and very into cars and car audio. i have a 2004 Chevy Blazer 2 door with a full JL Audio system right now(i know its expensive as heck but i bought it all on sale) and not fully happy with it so i look forward to learning and seeing what else i can do to be able to compete in local competitions and such.

Ok so i have an acura rsx and i'm looking to have a ported box that's about 1.2 cubic feet or less to go in the trunk with the sub facing up and the port firing at the hatch/trunk. From what i hear, the SA-12 can be put in a smaller box than the Q; however, would it get as low? or have the same Sound Quality (although i know sq isn't really what subs, especially poerted ones, are for) The Sa-12 is cheaper (about $45-55 less) than the Q, and this money could go towards sound deadening or other things also. Help me choose Please! haha If more information needs to be given lemme know

Wow, I barely remember joining this forum a year ago. I believe I came here to look up some information on Mach5 Audio who regretfully is no longer here. Anyhow, this has to be a world record between my forum join date and my first post.

Hello from Chicago to everyone on the forum! I have been reading different posts and build logs quite regularly in the last few months in order to gain the most amount of information as possible. I have been installing car audio since 1993, but I took sort of a hiatus for a number of years since I was in the Army and then college; although I did have had a couple of builds since moving to Chicago. I am just finally getting around to signing in…officially. I purchased some audio equipment quite a few months ago, but I am just finally getting around to installing in my new car…a 1998 Honda Civic… (I was hit by a hit and run-drunk driver last year, which totaled out my othe…

havent been in the pro audio game for a while since my old cutlass build log just got an 01 denali and lookin to do one or two sundown audio nightshade 18s in it.

Well I am SefuGi's Nephew , and we have been into cars for quite awhille now. I am in Florida same town as him so looks like Ill be getting in some of the builds going on. I am ex-military and Ive worked at two mechanic shops with him, so we have the experience to bust out some good stuff. Stay tuned

Hello, Glad i finally found a sight where i can learn more about my growing passion for the mobile audio world. I have been fooling around with mobile audio since my teen years, but i just started getting serious the past few month's, and i am looking forward to learning as much as i can.

Newbie here saying hello from Michigan. I have been watching the SSA forum for a few months and have learned alot of new stuff just from reading. Car audio has been a hobby of mine since I could drive (only 7 years but hey). Soon I will be starting a new build on my 2003 Dodge Durango and thought it would a fun idea to post it here in the builds section. Thank You, Sean

hey all. Well, signed up on here a while ago, and haven't really posted. Well, I'm working midnights right now and thought I'd take the time to finally get back into it. As for about me/my vehicle/set up. Right now, I am running: Head Unit: Alpine cda-7998 (love it, phenomenal and does everything I could ask) mids/highs: Clarion SRS-1686 component set (6.5" midbass woven glass cone, 3/4" tweeter silk dome)(very impressed, but then, my ears like the sound of woven glass fiber cones...) Subwoofers: currently (2) clarion SW 1251 12" (single 4 ohm VC, 350 watts RMS) Enclosure: 4 cubic foot net dual slot ported tuned to 32 Hz, common chamber (built in two hours, while the lit…
