    Hello all. Just checking in from Denver. I will be doing a lot of reading here. Seems like a lot of valuable information. I just got my first truck and its a 2013 SCrew F150. Don't know if I am going to do a sub but full speaker swap with amp is def coming. It's just fun to play around with all kinds of ideas. Daydreaming is fun

    Well everyone's title was "Hello", so I decided to do things a little different. Anyway I have a car, it has my second system in it. It is an old maxima and came with a Bose system. I thought it sounded great, until it crapped out and since it had 1-ohm speakers, it meant getting a head unit and new speakers too. That was maybe 2 years ago, so now I'm rolling in my ultra-budget system. It's more of an experiment always in progress. This week I sealed my doors and also got the circuit diagram for and built a PWM LED Dimmer so I can make my ride ultra-sexy for the ladies. lol. Anyway, I lurk here and DIYMA for the knowledge, and at CA for the drama. So hello all! and than…

The Jl's were rated 300 W each , will the amp be sufficient for these two SSD's to perform properly ? Will also be adding a pair of 10 " 2 ohm BL's each connected individually to it's own Alpine PDX 1000.1 in a ported enclosure tuned at 32 , will add P chamfer , cooling , Flatwin…

    whats up guys, i found this site from a google search for fi subs.. I'm looking for the best boom for my truck. I drive a 2002 GMC sierra single cab. I have an alpine 9813 head unit, MB Quart component speakers in the doors n b pillar and a 500 watt Orion amp. I had two 12 inch PBX subs in a sealed box powered by a sony Xplod 1000 watt amp. it bumped pretty nice but I didn't like that it couldn't really be heard outside of the truck so i sold it.. I listen to rap about 95% of the time so I like earth shaking bass that knocks pictures off the wall if I'm outside your house. I don't want to cut into the bed though.. I wanted two 12's again but i was told not to have my hear…

  20. Started by tiktok,

    Hi all, My name is Jack, and I'm 19 years old. I recently have been drawn back to the car audio scene. My old setup was a 180A alternator, two 12" Treo SSI with an old Mmats D200HC. I sold all this stuff back in 2008 and my alternator recently took a dump on me. It was a 180A alternator, and I sent it back and they quoted me $170 for the rebuild, or $270 to build it up to 200A. I don't know what to do, but more on this later as I'm rambling haha... I plan on running a new system, it will have three old 12" Punch HX2, all D4 ohms, so I'm looking at an amp that will do well at .75 ohms. Anyways...that's me! Glad to be here.

    My name is Colby. I go by either Colby, NC, Norcal or zccolby (youtube). I am new to the forum, but not new to audio. I have minimal hands on expereince due to lack of funds, however I have dedicated much of my time to research. I spend hours each day designing, reading, or watching videos on topics related to audio. I am working my way through the Loud Speaker Design Cookbook and have been through plenty of advanced math and physics courses. I live in Sacramento, CA, but went to college in San Luis Obispo, CA. I am all about having a community, so you will find me helping people whenever I can. I might have a minor single sub build coming up shortly so if that goes well …
