    What's good everyone just stopping by here to say hey to the board & introduce myself. I'll admit that i'm really armature with the whole topic of systems but i've joined the board to watch & learn and one day become as knowledgeable as some of you are. I've always loved loud music but never really took systems seriously until now. I just bought a car this past week, a '94 Ford Probe, and the first thing on my to do list is get some boom in there!

    My wife drives a 2003 Honda Accord V6 sedan. She has a 300 watts RMS at 2 ohm on the 5 channel amp and wants a sub. I was on DIYMA and someone suggested I look into the 12" SSA DCON. I read the specs and did some searching. The price fit our budget but my question is...how will this sound with 300 watts at 2 ohm in a sealed for example 1.0 to 1.20 cubic ft sealed box? I read that people prefer the ported box but I am looking for something sealed but I am open for suggestions. I was looking into one of these: Single 12" Sealed MDF Enclosure (12SQTC) 12" Sealed Subwoofer Enclosures Sealed Subwoofer Enclosures Car Subwoofer Enclosures Car Subwoofer Installation &am…

    Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and new to car audio. I recently purchased a 100.2 amp and 10"sub from Jacob at Sundown, I guess this is my first real amp and sub, before that I had a 200 watt bazooka tube hooked up to a Kole 2 channel amp. It was ok I guess for my hatchback. I like music and listen to almost everything, lately I been listening to allot of Latin Jazz but I also love to listen to instrumental metal rock, and I really like music that mixes up a little bit of everything in like highs for the speakers and lows for my sub. So I guess thats it for now. just a little bit about my self. thanks for reading.

  13. Hello fellow enthusiasts! My name is Jason and I originally signed up to post a reply to a thread that I found on here regarding pxa-h701 compatibility with the alpine iva-w205. But I've found that this forum is really cool, and maybe I will post more often. I am a member over at g35driver.com and I do a lot of research on forums, don't post much but search and read a lot. : D My setup is in a 2006 G35 coupe. My old setup was: Eclipse AVN5500 w/ ipc-106 ipod control and swi-ecl steering wheel interface, DLS UP6 component set in stock locations, DLS RA10 and DLS RA20 amplifiers, two image dynamic IDQ10v2d2. I then changed up to two T1 rockford fosgate power. The am…

    I found this site while researching the effects of impedance rise. I am working on building a system and trying to learn at the same time. I am buying a HDC3 15, my box is 4.5 cubes tuned to 38 hertz, kerfed port with 74.25 inches of port. I have a Hifonics 2010D amp 1/0 gage wire (double runs). Still have a ways to go, but like i said trying to learn.

    Hi all, member on CA.com and admin for Mobileaudioforum.com. Always looking for more places to hang out and don't mind being put in my place from time to time. I'm also an active-duty sailor and more what you would consider a "SQeer" as we've coined it on MAF, but I don't mind getting loud from time to time.

    Hey guys this is a great forum,usually I just look around and dont post but figured that I would join in. My first system was a kicker l7 and a kenwood amp probably pushing 4-500 rms. Now I am getting more into audio than ever....right now I have a FI Q 12 and just preordered a sundown sae1200, cant wait to hear what sound quality sounds like.

    Hey guys, I messed up in the past on Meade's board and let my anger get the best of me. I don't start problems, but I can't help finishing them when I get pushed. I was the xXxOuTLaWxXx, but I would like if somebody could change my display name to OuTLaWeD. I'm sorry if I have offended you in the past, but I ask that you don't bring that stuff here. Thanks guys
