Whats up guys? I've always had a car stereo system, just the basic mainstream stuff and here lately I've been really getting into the unknown brands of car audio. Unknown where I live anyways. I just acquired anightshade 18 and am going to purchase another one and see how long it takes to beat my truck to death. I'm not here to pretend like I know it all or anything like that, I'm here to learn from the best! Please school the youngster guys. Anyways thought I'd make my presence known and say hi to everybody.

been checkin out the site for awhile doin home work for the new system. hello all!!!

just sayin whats up to everyone. im starting my first actual build, nothing special but its gonna be better than last time. a couple years ago i had an eclipse amp ( i think like 300 watts?) and two 12" kicker free airs, ported in a 03 tiburon. it got loud but never hit low... i could get like the first 2 notes in "put on" by jeezy and kanye but nothin after that lol, im sure the amp wasnt fit for it at all but it totaled 50 for the amp and kickers in the prefab box and like 60 for the wiring. it got the job done for the price i guess, it was ok. but i sold the tib, have the kickers in my garage but i just dont even want them. havent got around to attempting a sale to any…

Hey everyone, I'm new here, but been in car audio for while. Figured I'd come over here and do a bit of research. I'm lookin for a new sub stage, and being that this is the official Fi forum, it seems I came to the right place to read up and learn. Right now my system is pretty much complete minus the sub Pioneer 880PRS Next Audio VRz4.400 Peerless HDS Nomex 7" mids LPG 26na Linear Power 2.2hv Right now, I'll hopefully be able to get an 05 xxx 15 from Shawn if all works out, or my other choice is the Fi Q 12". I'm looking for strictly sound quality before anything, either will be run off my 2.2HV which is anywhere from 1k to 1.5k watts of clean power. I'm just hoping…

Hi Guys, I'm Gabrie, been on the car audio world for already 20 years, and still trying to keep in it! regards, G.

just got sn started wanted to say hi

My name is Brian, Im from Wisconsin. Ive browsed this site a bit here and there, and only registered for the chatroom, but now it seems like it died off since you had to become a member to use it. I only comment on things I know for sure, I hate to be wrong, but when I am wrong I man up and admit it Ive been messing with audio systems home/car since I was 12 years old. I learned everything I know from a retired competitior that had many national records. I like expensive gear, usally imported stuff that everyone on the block does not have. Then when people ask what I am running I just simply say JENSEN because after I took all the time to tell them what it is, they will…

Hello all! ive been watching the fourums and learning from all the great info. I have allways had some sort of beats in my trunk for as long as I have been able to drive (going as far as shoving my old house speakers in the trunk of my moms car when i borrowed it) and have allways just "thrown" whatever equipment i could find in the trunk for some bass (was hooked on Bass after i heard Too $hort-Cusswords and some Nemisis-Munchies for my Bass on my friends system back in the days!!!), never considered the all so many things that go into a system, box size/type, amp, electrical and wire...its amazing to think back on the damage if done to some equipment Ive owned in the pa…

hey guys new to the site looks like this will be helpful and ready to meet new friends

I have an 18" Avalanche that i bought about 1.5 yrs ago. Was wondering how much it would cost to get it reconed. Had it in a 13cu.ft box tuned to 30hz with 1200RMS and i loved it, but i assume it took all it could and is now making a scratching sound when i turn it up.

Giving a shoutout from Mission, BC in Canader. I'm here to learn all I can about car audio, as well as home audio, and hopefully, down the road, be able to pass that knowledge on to other people.

hi, new guy here. looking to get back into the car audio game.

Hey guys, I'm brand new to the car audio world and am looking for a system that can pound as a daily driver. I've already decided to run 2 15" N2 BTL's but am unsure on what to power them and what alt/batts to back them up. I've read a lot of forums and the DC 3.5k amp looks good plus its 15% as a presale. I was thinking of having a 320a DC power alt with an XS D975 up front and a D3100 in back, all wired 1/0 with big three. Will my system run well? and if not, what can i do to make sure i supply enough power to amp and that the amp is a good fit? BTW, budget is in $2500-$3k range Any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, Just thought I'd say hi. I'm from Mississauga which is right beside Toronto (no leaf jokes please ) So far I have a head unit (Pioneer Premier DEH-P690UB) and sub (Image Dynamics Q12v3D4).....still looking for some amps and a front end. Looking forward to being part of the board. B

Hello all, My name is Chase. I've been into audio for about three years now ever since I got my first car in the 11th grade. Ever since then I've been through about five different systems and have just recently finished my first "real" system. I look forward to learning new things on this forum and checking out some awesome builds!
