Newbie Sign IN

Hey everyone. My name is Ken and I am glad to be here on the SSA forums. I joined about a week ago and have been lurking around and must say that this forum seems much better than the car audio forums I was at. Looking forward to learning as much as I can.

Hey guys. member i hope to gain some knowledge from you guys, i have a lot ot learn. And it seems like a good crew here. see you guys around the forums. --Greg

Just joined to keep up on the latest with fi. I am from Omaha, NE and am ordering 2 15" q's. My friend has 2 BTLs and my brother has a q. We are starting the revolution in the midwest...well at least in Omaha. Everyone loves our subs.

im new to the forum but not to car audio. always lookin to learn new things and i hope this forum helps me.

what's up everyone, I just joined, hoping to get lots of great info from everyone as well as share some of my own.

Hi everybody! Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm from Quebec, Canada and I'm now the owner of a new MAW-15 subwoofer and I've got a couple of Q's for you! So thinking I can use this page for those...I'll post my principal question here...which is what would be a good budget amp to power this sub, keeping in mind that I might add another one later? I was thinking about a Hifonics BXi 1206D. Does it makes sense at all? And how much wRMS this subwoofer can take? I know it is rated at 500w, but will it handles something like 750w/RMS daily? Thanks for your inputs guys!

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.

Hey everyone. I found this site while looking up stuff about US Amps, and I'm glad I did! So, I'll be lurking here and there. Name is Mike, and live in the Warner Robins, GA area. I am an Electronics Technician in the Navy, and Systems Administrator in my civilian life. I've been heavily into home and car audio since about 1987, and have a deep appreciation and love for the old school, hand crafted in the U.S.A., quality gear that seems to be rapidly going the way of the dinosaur. Hope to get to know some of you, learn from some of you, and maybe even share a little knowledge with some of you.

Hi to all the mods, denim, and any SSA regulars who might be reading this. ive been lurking around for a while and thought id finally sign in.

What's goin on guys. My names walker. I'm from upstate New York and I'm 16. I'm starting my first project. Throwing a FI BL12 in a 1987 SUZUKI SAMURAI. Hope to learn a lot. Thanks

Sorry for the double post

Hey just wanted to get my first post out. I really like this forum, thier are not 20 different threads about hifonics, XXX's, D2's,etc. Haha. Very nice forum. Thanks Adam

Hey guys, new guy here from Mid MO. I have always enjoyed car audio, and look forward to learning more. I have a 03 Lexus GS300, I am about halfway through a budget build. I use my car for long trips for work and having good overall sound and being able to go loud and with not terrible quality is my goal. I am not a SQ guy but I do appreciate quality and balance, but don't mind a good bass thump too time to time. I am on a hard budget and i will let you know what i have set aside for which part of the upgrade, for the next series of upgrades. My current setup is as follows. Kenwood Excelon DDX775BH H/U Front doors: NVX VSP65KIT (Component w/crossover…

Hey guys. Been in Tulsa the last 10 years and liked it enough to stay and raise my kids here. Been into car audio for around 20 years or so and absolutely love where it's gone and where it's going! It's really taken off here in Tulsa. About half of the Craigslist ads under electronics are for car audio gear! Lol! Going to to Oklahoma City fairgrounds for the USACi show and hope to see whoever can make it out there.

From mississippi, Just checkin it out

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.

Just stepping up to introduce myself. Blackbeauty here... some may know me, some may not... I just found out the other day that there is a radio in my truck. Wow! What a difference from the regular silence I've been tolerating for the past 45 years......

Hello everyone, I am working on overhauling my current 2007 Civic coupe install to a comp worthy trunk class build. The brains of the system is a Sony CDX-C90/ XDP-210EQ combo. A McIntosh powered (MC425 and MC427) Exodus/ Vifa front stage is in the stock locations. The current sub-stage is JBL GT4-12's powered by a Kicker ZX1000.1. The electrical is stock except for a single run of 1/0 KnuKoncepts cable. The overhaul will still include a McIntosh powered front stage, but the subs and subs powerplant will get yanked out in favor of 15's(or maybe triple 12's) and a 3-5kW amp. I am shooting for 150's. Electrical is first on the list...

well id just like to say HI im new to posting and stuff but i do come here read some of the post, blah blah blah so im not a total NOOB

Hey everyone. Arthur from Indianapolis here. I am a professional drummer and work as a hired gun for various tours around the world. My most recent tour was a stint with The Blue Man Group and have also played with The Fortunes from Coventry England and others. I got out of car audio for about 15 years and now have dove in again and you guys are spending all of my cash!!!! I have a big Arc audio system but now am in the process of doing the Sundown/ Fi/ Focal/Kinetic/ Alpine system. Amazing what I have learned and relearned on these forums! Thanks, Arthur

POWERBASS ALL THE WAY THANKS FOR ADDIN ME INTO HERE!

New guy here. Looking for help on a potential audio setup for my 2010 Dodge Charger. I'm looking to get 2 12" subs, amp, and enclosure first. ( <<<looking to spend about $800. is that feasible?) Then looking to get an aftermarket head unit down the line. I honestly have no idea about car audio so I need some suggestions. I want something that sounds good but hits hard. I mostly listen to hip/hop n rap so I like bass but not to the point that's all I hear. Any suggestions or opinions would be great. I know you guys probably get these questions all the time (sorry) but I figured I'd ask people who know something about car audio. Thanks, Blunt
