    Hi, well I'm a new RE believer. I was just turned on to them and I'm so thankful! The whole solobaric thing for me was getting old. I hope to be switching my subs within a week.

    Hi from West Palm Beach, FL. I'm new to SSA forums. I was this site at Steve Meade Designs while I was reading up on Fi Car Audio in his forums. I haven't had a system in a while and I'm starting to get that itch to build one so I've been doing a lot of reading. My how things have changed. I have already asked some questions and I have received some very good feedback from the users here. I have lots to learn and this seems like the perfect place for me to do that. I have a 97 Maxima SE that I'm sizing up for a SQ install. We'll see how it goes !!! Thanks for the help already !!!

    Hey everyone, well, as you can tell I am the new guy, aka the noob. I don't even know if I'm posting this in the right spot. I will try and keep my grammar and spelling good though. So if I am posting in the wrong spot, please tell me where to post this(lol). Anyways, I've been trying to put together a good stereo system for the least amount of money I can...without having horrible sound. To make it all clear, all of this is in my house. I'm not old enough to have my own car, sadly. The room is 20' x 20' square and is converted from a garage(thus, concrete floor). So heres what I've got so far: 15" TC Sounds TC2+ 15" SVC sub @ 400 watt RMS and 4 ohm. Unknown brand…

    hey everyone. i've been doing a lot of research lately regarding my next sub, and it seems like every forum i read points to fi. I have only 730 watts to work with, can someone point me in the right direction? I was originally thinking about a bl15, but it seems like I'm severely lacking in the power department... thanks
