General Audio

does anybody know anything about almani car audio??

ok, well got approved for my partsexpress wholesale account, but with so much on there what should i get for my site?!!! I am looking to get some Tang bang stuff and the grills, there's so much more. Also how good is a Cascade sound deadening? Anyone with experience.

someone has offered webspace, now we need some people to help retrieve/send, and input the info i think it would be cool if a group of us puts together a database of audio equipment with pix and specs and share it with everyone else. freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee i dunno if this has been tried before, but i think it might be a fun little project happy?

is it possible to do hairtricks from the trunk without the backseat going down? i have leather seats btw

just sliding thru to check out the site and show support..site looks great!!.. hope to see some of you guys at some up coming Riding Clean shows. check us out at http://www.RidingCleanMag.com or on facebook http://www.Facebook.com/RidingClean

Hey guys, I would love to get into competing one day, and I have a question for you audio ethusiats. I have a few old "spare" vehicles around my house.... 2 trucks,and a van. One is single cab other is extended. Not my question is, which would you chose to work on. The van, or one of the trucks with a blowthrough. I would be interesed in which you think would have the most potential.. Thankx Probably SQ class... Maybe some SPL Comp... I dunno yet. Thx Josh P.S. could someone give me the pro's and cons of each in their on opinions "IF" you have done this before.

Not sure if this is the correct place to post...if not, mods, feel free to move! I recently installed a HU for a friend. She has a 1989 Ford Taurus. When she bought the car, the front speakers didn't work. I replaced the speakers last spring, and that did not fix the problem. This past weekend, I installed a Pioneer HU, hoping that would correct the issue. But, no, it did not. So I am wondering...could I just splice new speaker wire into the Pioneer side of the harness, and basically run new wires to the speakers? In doing this, I would bypass the factory wiring, hopefully solving the problem. But, if I bypass the factory wiring, won't I also bypass factory gro…

I just started writing articles for a guy who is trying to make a decent car audio sales website....so check em' out if anyone wants to. I will probably be taking topic articles from forum questions. www.mycarjams.com Click on the Audio Answers link.

Not sure if this will work or not, i'm scared that the subs won't move the air into the box. And yes it is a tight space. Im just going to take out the 6x9's and leave the metal sheeting but have the holes there. My main concern is the box though. Would it even be a point in porting it and if so where? Plan on starting this later today, or whenever i get some wood. or maybe angled like this

What does these mean on subs? FS RE QMS QES QTS SD RMS CMS MMS BL VAS XMAX XCOIL Please tell me what each of those mean if you can!!

I am planning a new box build, and was thinking of using aeros. The problem is I have never used them. I think I can figure out most of it , but I need some help with how to figure out the port displacement. Any links or info would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance

I was wondering why subwoofers use tinsel leads to carry the current to the voice coil. Wouldn't copper be better because the resistance to electricity flow is lower? What makes the tinsel leads better for that part of the sub.?

Bang & Olufsen is designing an in-car system for the Audi A8. Looks like it is actually going to be pretty decent. No mention of a subwoofer, but if they do it right, I guess they won't need one. http://www.carsound.com/UBB/ultimatebb.php...c;f=18;t=009872

I am looking to get sound deadening for my trunk. Could you guys tell some good sound deadeners and how much they cost.

If i have 2 BTL 12, what should the box be tuned to for comps...i mean i want to listen daily but i wanna put up numbers too...i want a deep droppin bass but dont wana loss numbers on da meter

So I recently ordered one 15 in icon. my question is what box should I get for it...such as thickness ..size..Hz...ect

Alright, so I'm trying to plan out my car system and ive ordered my subs/amps. The subs are 1x 18" FI BTL and 2x 12" FI BTL's. I have a 4 door dodge stratus and I was planning on removing the back seats where I would put the 18" in a 7'-8' cu ported box. The two 12"s would go in the trunk area in a single ported box (can do two seperate boxes if that would be better). The trunk/cab would be connected due to the removal of the back seat. My question is, would this be a very stupid thing to do? Im VERY new at these things and I apologize if it's a rediculous idea. Also, if it isn't a good idea, what would be? And last, what would be good places to have the ports/woof…

My friend has an 04 infiniti fx 35 and wanted to know if it is possible for him to keep his stock radio which Is a bose system on a stock 300 watt amp and just change the sub, is this possible or will he have to change out the amp too? Is it that easy, can he just replace both the amp and sub and keep the same radio? he is just looking for more bass to add to his system. I believe it has 11 speakers and 2 subs.

Has anyone else noticed google play music streaming , and locally stored music sounding a bit distorted lately?

hello i am requesting a design for a blowthrough. The hole for the connection to the cab hasn't been cutout yet. i have attached a photo of how my enclosure will be through the cab. i will be running 6 18" Fi SSDs stock. with about 6k watts. subs should be facing up but should also be covered. i want it to be low but loud. it wont be for burps just a loud ass daily driver here are the dimensions 49 1/2" wheel weld to wheel weld 77" front to back of bed 19" height this is how i want the port to enter the cab

I would like to build a ported enclosure for a single 12. I'm ok with building it but I'm not to positive on figuring port displacement and tuning and I figured someone here could probably help. I want the box to be 2 cu ft after port and sub displacement tuned to 32-33 hz, double baffle, sub and port firing at the trunk. I want to have quite a bit of trunk space with the box and amp in there. I measured what space I'd like to utilize and came up with 16-17" tall(preferably 16) x 24-26" wide x 16-17" deep, is that big enough for size box I'm wanting? For anyone curious I plan to run either an icon or a ssd off my sae 1200. I'm going to use one of my Orion xtr pros until …

I have my kenwood excelon 4 chan mounted in front of my sub and port... I think the vibration is the reason I had to get the digital processor replaced on the amp and kept giving strange errors on the display. we tried larger head screws and my next option is rubber washers to stop the amp from vibrating so much. or would it be smart just to forget about the amp and jump on the pre order for the sundown 100.4. has anybody ever heard of that problem before?

does any one know where i can buy a cheap mic for spl and software ? or maybe some one has one for sale ?

Just wondering if anyone can tell me the Hz of this song 50k waka flocka please i wanna make sure its what i think it is.

I have a gallon of Spectrum and 20sq.ft. of rattle pad...Install starts tomorrow afternoon!!
