Hello from louisiana. I have been lurking here for a few weeks after being introduced to the forum by a friend. I doubt he is a member, he lurks alot. The main reason I am here is because of Sundowns SA-8, it seems to be an extremely impressive woofer and 8s have been my preference for woofers as long as I can remember. I have read most of the stickys you guys have posted and learned quite a bit from it, and I really like the way this forum is laid out. This seems to be the best audio forum I have seen and I would like to thank you guys for the effort put into making it what it is. I do have a few questions for you guys as I would like to setup my system once, correct…

new here with lots of questions

Hey, Ryan here I'm terrible at these intro things so I guess I'll jump right in... In my quest to keep weight in my car low, and to use a small-ish box, I'm really striking out for sub choices. I have a PG RSd10 in a .7 (net) sealed box, stuffed liberally. It gets low, but requires a bit of power and it's pretty annoying above 80Hz. I'm bored, so I was considering porting it. It's a 350 RMS sub, single 4, and supposedly 84dB efficient...although I'm betting that's at 2.83V I'm giving it 400 watts currently. WinISD recommends a 1.8 cu ft box (before port and sub displacement)...ummm...no. Not doing that. Most other subs I look at want 3-4 cu ft Definitely not. Here's wh…

So I've been perusing the forum for a while now, but never officially introduced myself. I'm USAF stationed at Spangdahlem Air Base in Germany. Current set up is a set of Polk Audio DB5251's up front on an old PG Tantrum 250.2, 2 Diamond Audio TDX 10D4's on a SAZ-1200D and Knuconcepts 1/0. Still waiting to finish my Big 3 this weekend. Well anyway.....Hello.

just trying to introduce myself. i thought i already had a different name setup on this forum but i guess i couldnt remember the password. anywasy im mr.michael on ****, and ca.com so im not new to the game just to this forum. if i can help anyone that would be cool. im not a big forum hopper but you might see me here and there lol

I am back as I had originally bought a Sundown 100.4 on the very first run for my RSX which I had hooked up to DLS components. I really thought I had made an account here back then. Well I then, sold the RSX. I then put an Audison amp, focal components and focal subs in my next car, a 1995 Porsche 993. That car was stolen over the summer. So now I am back to looking at putting some left over parts that I hadn't sold into my current S2000. Now to look through some builds to see the cool stuff people are currently building.

Hi, my name is Mark, I was really into car audio up until about 7 years ago or so. Now I suddenly find myself interested in it again. It's kind of strange to see how much has changed, I feel like a total noob again but oh well. Either way, hi.

Hey all! I'm glad to be apart of this forum! I am looking to get a new sub woofer. I had a 15" Kicker L5 that died on me. I am looking at the Fi Q but wanted a little advice first. I am looking for a good SQ sub and I ahve heard that the Fi Q is a good one. It will be powered by ZX750.1 which from what I read is a little underrated. The fact that it fried my L5 which is rated at 750w RMS also leads me to believe either the sub was over rated or the amp is under rated. The amp is hooked straight to the battery via a Rockford Fosgate 4 gauge kit. I currently have a cheap auto-zone battery but I will be upgrading to an Optima Yellow top soon. The vehicle is a Chevrolet Taho…

Hello everyone.Im trying to build my first system and learn about this car audio stuff.

Hi, I have a ford Taurus 2006 sel. I have the regular factory stereo, and I would like to hook my iPhone up to it. I tried an fm transmitter but did not like it. Is there any way I can hook it up to the factory stereo? I have read about the pie adapters. Will they work at my car? I am open for any suggestion! Preferable the cheapest. I would really appreciate some help! Thanks Christian

Hey everyone, just wanted to introduce myself here. I'm moving over to this forum from CA.com cause I feel like that website is falling apart a little. But I recently put together my first system consisting of the stuff in my sig and I'm real happy with the results.

Hey guys. You have a great forum here. I've been doing some reading recently on trying to figure out a sub for myself and there is a lot of in depth info. I'm not new to car audio I've been a hobbyist in it since 1992. Always looking for more power or speakers..lol. as I matured I finally learned the right way to do things and became very picky about my equipment purchases. I'm not so much into big boom anymore but still enjoy being able to raise the volume and turn some heads. I'm driving a 1999 Mercury Cougar that I'm currently trying to design a new setup in the hatch for. This is what I'm currently running: HU: Eclipse AVN6620 Front: Polk Momo MM6 components Rear:Kic…

Hello all, i'm not necessarily new here but just got around to posting an introduction. I frequent a few other car audio forums and can say i have became an addict. My ride is nothing special, i own a 2001 Oldsmobile Alero GX (base edition). She has 110,000 miles on her and still running like a champ. Audio-wise, i am running: Head Unit - Kenwood KDC-MP538u Amplifier - Hifonics BXi1610d Subwoofers - Two old' school 15" Petra Prowlers sealed. One run of 1/0 to the rear with The Big Three done up in 1/0. I am looking forward to actually contributing to this site, and now need to get my post count up to be eligable to start my own threads, i have some questions... lol Here …

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 everyone, first off, let me say I have been lurking around this forum for a while. I am amazed by the amount of information other members have posted on this forum. I look forward to sharring coments, ideas, maybe a few laughs with you guys.

Actually my second post. But newbie me is here. Learning as the time goes by.

Hey guys, I've been reading for about a year now and figured it was time to contribute back some. I am getting ready to start my new build in my 99 Honda and will be starting a built log this week. I look forward to all the input and enjoy talking to people with the same interests as me.

Hey guys! New member from Indianapolis. I came here, like a lot of newbies, to read comparisons and opinions on different subs. After my first post (missed this part of the site) I decided that instead of asking which would be best why not learn the ins and outs of a subwoofer and what all of the specs actually mean. I have really picked up a lot from this site, it is my favorite audio site by far.

Hey SSA! I've been searching around for a good car audio forum for a while and I think I just found it! I'm new to the car audio world. I've been doing A LOT of research for about 2 months so I'm not completely ignorant on the topic. I live in Guatemala City and here there are not a lot of "experts" in car audio so I have resorted to sites like these to learn. Well, I already have a lot of questions so im gonna post those up and hopefully will be able to help someone on their quest for the perfect system. Cheers!

Hey guys, I just signed on to the forum. I'm relatively new to the world of car audio. I own a '95 GMC Jimmy and have plenty of room in the back. But I'm going to college soon so I don' exactly have a lot of cash to spend on audio equipment. Luckily I found out about Sundown Audio on another forum I frequent. I hope to get one or two of the new SA-8 subs when they come out next month, or maybe on or two of the old E-8s. I'm also enrolled in a woods class at my high school so I was gonna make a few sub boxes as projects in that class. If anyone has any tips on building a vented box please PM me.
