So I just finished making my box its 5.0 cubic ft after displacement. I have 0 guage coming on monday but I am currently running 4 guage and don't have my extra battery and big 3 done yet. I am playing my sub and playing it reasonably loud. Will this be fine if I play it for a week till I get the 0 guage and the extra battery wired up??? I have an 05 denali and my lights are dimming when stereo is turned up.

i own at dis chit, rockin the school scene, gettin paper, gath'rin haters! sorry, had to spit a few lines, lol. anyone in need of a nice compact mobile audio system, i.e. backpack speakers hit me up. mine is tippin the scales at 10lbs and pushin the 115db mark with the highs. bass is still iffy, gotta lower impedance but hey, just got it, work in progress same old same old. i can build from scratch, but seein as i am 14, and have no source of usable income, you would have to be in my area. (chicago, well plainfield but still close to). so thats my shpeal. whatever, pm me if you wanna call me or whatever to talk tech chit.

alright. i have an 8 ohm sub amp that is stock with my altec-lansings. totally wrong forum, i know it seems but wait. it is in my backpack, so there for it is mobile. well it isnt in a car, but thats not the point! 5" woofer, two bose 3's for mids, and two 50w roadmaster tweets. runnin highs and mids series'd , with crossovers of course, at 2ohms but woofer is at 8. would it be safe to run two 4 ohm woofers series'd at 2 ohm on an 8 ohm amp? thinkin bout these: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=264-831 in this http://www.alteclansing.com/images/product...arge/vs2321.jpg main concern is decent LSQ. lous as a mutha(expletive) now but thats just the highs…

What do you think i should get in terms of 6x9's and a sub and amp and head unit.

anyone know of a place near plainfield (or chicago) where i could pick up two DBXi's? zip is 60544 if it helps. buddy of mine is gettin a '66 impala gonna cram two 15's up in dat thing!

Buy a sony 12" component sub XSL124P5B and a sony stereo Model #: SON CDXGT320 for around 250$. And then buy four 6x9 pioneer speakers for i dont know how much. Would this system even work ? What would i need? I drive a 2000 f-150 lariot extended cab supercrew.

HELP MAE!

I was wondering where could i buy a subwoofer anybody know any reputaional websites that have good deals/prices i would like to know thnx

So on the ride home from work today I got pulled over for my "loud" stereo.. good thing I drove the suburban today that has a factory tape deck still installed running most of the factory speakers (some are blown) Anyhow no subs, no nothing, just me and my local rock station.. the officer said "I saw you driving yesterday in a different car with a loud stereo, and now today it's loud again" Yes he did see me yesterday playing the "loud" stereo my single 8 and 150 watts that I am currently using for daily in my Mazda.. but today there is no way it was illegal... I measured it... you can only really hear the music 50 or so feet away and nothing great at that... (the mazda …

A 1000bd fosgate is plenty of power for this sub right?? And what is a good enclosure size for this?? 3-5??

I recently purchased a 15"btl and a fosgate 1000bd amp. I own a 05 denali so I have alot of room for a box. How many cubic feet should I go with and tuned to how many hz?? I want it to knock but sound great as well...

Does anyone besides me think that the full 9kw of three 12" type X's will destroy a perfectly good honda civic? i was thinkin 3 type X's in a buddy's civic. then three SAZ-3000d's. whatever, just lemme know.

hi Dudes/Dudedettes -Is te Box tool on this site any good? -Should I look somewhere else if I want to do it propperly? -If I use this tool on the site; do I have to over build it to compinsate for sub displacement and of course bracing? -What other (free) tools do you guys use that are easy to use and if you have paid for it how much and was it worth it? thanks, i am sure this will help others out there as well.

i have a 1000 bucks to spend on audio for a bus. i know its not alot but i would really like to stay on budget, its a party bus so it must be loud, and full sounding, i know that in a buss its gonan have a huge echo effect but i can work on that part later.. i will be meeting with my partner later to iron out more details but for now a rough idea would be helpfull to give him and my self an idea of what were looking at.... here are a few pics.. it looks a little more.. full now... it has seats along the walls... ill post new pics later on with the seats in.

I was wondering if I could run 2 1,000 watt amps to 1 btl 15 Is that possible?

Hey, I've got a fella that lives a few hours away that wants me to build a box for his 03 Ford ZX2, However I don't have anyway to measure out the trunk and to get him to understand and tell me the correct dimensions isn't gonna happen... (no common sense at all....) So does anyone have a ZX2 or happen to know the dimensions of the trunk I'm thinking 32x14x18 W x H x D rear firing a pair of 12's roughly 3 cubes 30 hz.... after dis

What is mean't by an active setup? A crossover built into the head unit? And Infinite baffle? Thanks in advance

My alt arrived today and it's installed! Now I need to upgrade my wires, I am stuck on KnuKoncepts but am interested in Stingers 3/0. In the long run Stinger 3/0 is actually less than 3*1 of the KK for obvious reasons, and KK doesn't offer any 3/0. I hear that the Kolossus cable is almost 2/0. I plan to get 2 more 250 alts, so am thinking about the multiple run issue. I am now stuck on deciding if I want to go with Kolossus Flex or KLM. KLM is smaller, but it's a bit cheaper when purchasing the amp kit, and they don't offer any amp kits with Kolossus. What would everyone else do? Go for the Stinger 3/0, multiple runs of the Kolossus Flex, or multiple runs of th…

I have been waiting for quite some time to finally arrive at the point on what setup I will be using. I was considering 3 IA DP21's or 4 Jbl W15Gti. The amp I am using will be the stetsom 7KD. If I were to go with the DP's it would be in a 24-26cube enclosure at 28hz. The Jbl's would be in a 20cube enclosure at 28hz. I cannot find a DP t/s parameters to factor into the equation. I at least wanted to use the DP15 subwoofer to compare in WinIsd Pro. What do you guys think? If anyone has any t/s parameters on the DP's let me know.

Ok My buddy was looking at5 a set of these and i was wondering if they were any good. I know that they arent american, and they kind of look cheep to me, but they arent for me. Thanks In advance.

I'm looking for low weight, basically. Rigidity isn't a huge concern because my box will only be 1 cube and in an L-shape, so all the corners and small panel sizes should make it pretty stiff regardless. I may also add a second baffle on front to countersink the sub. Birch is getting up over 60 dollars a sheet, though (5' x 5'). MDF weighs twice as much and half the price. Is there anything else readily available at most lumber yards that would do the job for less?

Really haven't been on here much, so i'm even more out of the loop than i was. I planned on waiting till next spring (after cross country and wrestling) to do more with my audio, but i can't wait. To start off, i really don't know a whole lot about speakers or tweeters, but i want something with good quality and good price, and from the looks of it, the Mach5 MLI-65 is great for the money. I'd also need some tweeters, and when i searched, most people recommended SEAs tweeters to compliment the mli. Does that sound good, what model of the tweeters, and are there any other suggestions? I was thinking a 100x2 amp for the mli's (sundown, maybe), and just power the tweets from…
