If I want to have 1 battery for my electrical system and one for my audio, how do I split the two batteries from the alternator? Split them from alternator into both batteries separately (and then into the capacitor or parrelel to the 2-3-4 car battery)? I don't want the audio system to pull from the cars electrical system.

i'm lookin at buying a 15'' old school stroker for $100, but the dual 4 ohm coils are metering 3 ohm do you guys think it has much playing life or should i not buy it.

I am going to do both bassrace and spl. Just wondering what would be some good sub that can handle 4k rms daily. Idk if there even is. I'm getting mike singers bass race box from his eclipse to put into mine. It's tuned to 35hz right now. Any ideas? I have $1000 limit. I have to sell my 15 btls first though.

Yesterday I finally got my ported box built, but now i need a little help with tuning my amp. I had the frequency set a little high because of the temporary sealed box i was using, but now i want to tune it for the lows. The box is 2.0ft^3 tuned to 32hz with a Fi Q12. This is all in a 96 honda accord off of 800 watts. What should i aim to tune my amps frequency at? Any help would be very appreciated.

Well I've been designing my box for my 2003 ext cab s10. I've decided to do the sub at a 45 degree angle facing the windshield and do the port the same way. The box is 6 ft^3 after all displacements and the port is 80 in^2 tuned to 30 hz so its about 32in long. The port is angles 45 degree off of the baffle board and goes straight down and makes a 90 degree turn and goes across the bottom. Does it have to be angled the same in the bottom of the box like its pictured below? Is that how you would do it?

I have a 2004 dodge ram 1500 quad cab. Currently i have 2 12" kicker cvr's powered by a ssl amp. Im planning on changing to 2 12" Fi q's and maybe the bl's. With a sundown amp along wiht components and a 4 channel amp. I will be changing the alternator and the battery also. Does anyone have any info on these subs or a better recommendation for my setup?

I can get a Fi SSD 12" or a IA Lethal Injection 15" for about the same price. Which one would you recommend for a small sealed box with 1100x1 @ 2ohms which is what my boston gt28 amp puts out. ???

How do you like those CV subs you are using, those fit nicely into the cheap 10 im looking to get for my friend. He has 130watts rms and a 1cuft sealed box.

In my enclosure when the guy made it, they put a hole for the wires and just put the wires in a put a little tack to seal it up. How much of an effect would this have all together and should I take further precautions to fix this? When I was using the box it didn't sound bad personally, but thats completely subjective.

I am in need of an amp. I will be getting an RE XXX 15 and I want to push it with about 1500 watts. What do you guys suggest for an amp? I was considering: Hifonics Brutus 2k watt RockFord 20001bd However, I don't no much about amps and brands. Suggestions Welcome. Thanks.

ok so my first issue is that i have found a usa company that builts box, for these trucks behind the seat, im going with 8s on this build.... so the options are 3 8s sealed or 2 8s ported im leaning to sealed as he listens to country ,. the issue i am having is finding out how much space is left between the back of the seat and the box.. so i can make sure the subs wont hit... im looking at the sundown SD 8s or the sundown E8v-2 if there is not much space left./ has anyone done an install on a crewcab 2008-2013?

Im having an issue with my mids and highs cutting out when turned up to higher volumes. I dont know if its a problem with the install or a problem with the equipment it self. But I do know that it should be able to be louder than what it is without cutting out. I got Rockford t2s and a Rockford t400.4 any advice?

Got stuck with another moonroof when I got my new truck(2001 blazer) wondering if anyone else has had any problems with the roof after having bass for awhile, ie not opening/ closing or no longer making a seal? I had one in my old car and it wasn't the same when I got rid of it as when I got it but figured that's jsut because it was a piece of chit Saturn.

I am getting ready to do a full install on my trailblazer SS. Its currently just stock Bloes system with factor 6disc in dash. I am planning on running an Eclipse 726E for the HU and from there is where i'm not sure. I auditioned a car yesterday with Mclass Memphis MCC6. It had some great puch to it when every you would hear the drummer hit the bass pedal. It was not coming from the sub as much as it was coming from the woofers in the doors and the rear deck lid. He has his running off of a JBL MS-8. I am sold on the MS-8, that really blew me away. Well, I had wanted to run Focal 165 KR2's, but got to listen to a set of Kr2P's today that didnt do much for me, but the way …

the pic below shows the ipod but is there a wire or connector that allows the zune to be connected to the head unit? http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=5082

Hey guyz I need to know some good installers in San Antonio, does anybody know any?

When the sub is on the port side, does it make a difference if the sub is closer to the port or farther away? if this question doesnt make sense just tell me and ill try to explain it a little differently.

There are no Termlabs in town I live in Pensacola, FL but the best shop in town uses a Gold-Line SPL 162, which they said that was calibrated to be within 1db of the B&K spl meters. I do not know anything about these meters so I am asking you guys how accurate they are, this shop sells US Amps and RE Audio, Critical Mass and other high quality brands so I figured that the Gold-Line SPL meter would also be high quality since that is how they deal with high quality equipment. Now for the results: Vehicle: 2004 Dodge Durango HU: Kenwood KDC-X891 Subs: 2 AQ 15" HD3's Sub amps: 2 US Amps MD3D's, strapped(2007 models) Song played: Walk it Out SPL score: 151.7 db sealed up o…

Hello all. So I just sold a sub for the first time and I need to ship it safely. Its a 10" Icon and I still have the original box that it came in, I also still have the 4 pieces of foam that were used to keep the sub from moving during shipping. My question is, how do I reattach those pieces of foam safely and securely? I am worried that just gluing them back in place is just not a good solution, I feel that they would come loose too easily. My other thought is to cut out pieces of cardboard/foam the size of the box and stack them until it secures the sub in place. I am worried if I use cardboard there is potential to damage the surround. So any ideas, suggestions o…

Well, those of you that read the build log know of he troubles I've had with my system and car. Combine that with the fact that we traded the Jeep in on the wife's new G35 and I'm left with nothing to haul stuff in. The decision has been made to sell my car and get a truck. The bad news on that is that I like driving my little go-kart and I'll miss it. The good news is that I'll finally have a truck again, I get to start from scratch on the system (some things will carry over and thus the point of this thread which I'll get to in a minute) and I'm getting a G37 at the end of the year to fill the performance car void left by by the departure of the SRT-4. Now to the po…
