General Audio

I will be doing a blowthrough in my truck, gonna order amps and such on Wednesday. Anyhow, it is going to be 4 12" BLs, but my question is, how do you think I should do my port. I was thinking staggering the 4 subs. The two outside ones low, the two middle higher up allowing the subs to sit closer together, and doing one big square port in the middle of the box. My goal is to be a rid. loud daily pounder with possible compeition...will this work?

Has anyone came across any problems with their ps2's in the trunk with alot of bass in their trunk.

So yeah..I just ordered a Kenwood KDC-X794..I have read good reviews about it, but some people had crazy stuff to say about it. Anyone have anything to say?

Hey guys i found this great deal on G31 shipped for 150 each. and i was looking for a review on these batteries? like has anyone had any previews experience with these batteries? also more importantly that price seems really low to me is that the price they go for normally? and one more thing these are BLANK deka g31's. which means they don't have a label on them the seller does say they are 100% deka's though? any thoughts or recommendations? thanks for your time Kenneth

will a stock s10 alt be able to hold the amps that the new 1500x1 fosgate pulls? i have a yellow top under the hood. should i buy another battery or buy a 200 amp alt?

Okay guys I need a little help on this. I need help on how to tune an amp the right way...I am installing a RF P400-4 that will be going to 4 6x9's and want it tunned correctly, and I have never really been showed how to tune an amp ever. Ive learned everything I know now by myself and would like it if someone could explain what exactly I need to do. I will also be installing a RF T-1500dcp on 2 12s also (yes this is the system I just sold but I wasnt the one who tuned it in my car). Any help, as always, is appreciated...thanks!

I'm considering keeping the factory amp with the 8" driver and I bought a harness that works with it. I just dot know what the rca's from the harness plug into. Maybe the head unit I assume? https://metradealer.com/api/vfg/view-product/id/70-1730

I am having noise issues when I start my truck and whenever I change tracks on my HU. I have a Kenwood KDC-X891 and whenever I start my truck I have like a humming, pulsing noise through my subs, and whenever I change tracks I get a little thump through my subs. However, this only happens whenever I am playing a CD. Whenever I am changing radio stations I do not have any noise, and if I start my truck with the radio on there is no noise. I do not have any noise whenever I use the USB port either. I can hook up a flash drive and flip through all those tracks without one thump and start my truck with it in this function without any noise, but once I switch the source to CD,…

I just bought me a memphis amp that will put out 1500 watts at 2 ohms. Is this wiring kit good? What fuse size do i need to get? Copper Clad Aluminum These rcas? Knukonceptz product detail for NEW KARMA SS 2 CHANNEL 6 METER RCA CABLE Is there anything else i need to wire it up? And what size speaker wire would i need to use?

I already have google sketchup and i'm wondering if there are any other softwares to design a box on?

Will a pair of 15" FI BL's with the cooling and flatwind option surive being pushed by a SAZ-3000D? The subs will be loaded in my old sub box wich is 4.5 cu ft per chamber tuned to 35hz. Or maybe I should look into the btl's?

My friend has been having some system problems. At higher volumes his system would completely shut down. The headunit would turn off and then come back on. His volt meter has never dipped much below 13 volts. He has an alpine headunit with a kenwood mono amp and alpine sub. Any ideas and what is causing this or what could be done to figure it out?

Im trying to do the big three but i need some terminals. Can i use ring terminals to hook on to my battery post or do i have to use an actual negative and positive battery terminal like this one.. http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=180869142771&siteId=0&isClassified=false

Ok, I know some of the more popular manufacturers on here. But does anyone have any experience with Atomic? I want good, bad, satisfactory.....

I was at a show and I got a picture taken of me in front of my truck and the guy said he was going to put in the MECA Magazine. Where can i find this?

Bought a router last week for work. router im not 100% clear on the compatibility of this jig. Think it will work?

I hope that I am posting this in the right place. I have 2006 Honda Odyssey EX that has the 6 CD changer and XM capable stereo. I have heard that it may be possible to connect a device that will allow me to "hard wire" my iPod, using that XM connection. Can anyone tell me exactly what I would need to make this happen? I am not looking for anything fancy really, just to be able to use my iPod without using an FM transmitter. I don't know jack about car audio, but I have a friend who says he can help me install it once we find the exact right part. Can anyone help me? PK

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.

I was thinkin, would i need to build something like a funnel around the box of my subs leading up to the cuthrough in my truck to make optimal use of output from my subs......or would it be okay to just put the box few inches back from the wall of the truck?

Struggling to get my head round this. I've got 1 battery up front. Then I've got/will have 6-8hawkers in the footwells. Most likely to be 2 behind drivers seat, 2 behind passenger seat and 2 in the front footwell. I'll only be using the hawkers when showing off or at shows. I've got two sundown saz-3500s & ATM 1 phd 2200. Cable wise I've got 25-30m of 50mm2 & a 5m run of 150mm2. What is going to be the best way of wiring this up? Also how would you fuse it? That's going to be a lot of fuses if I put one inbetween each battery. Anyone used these. http://www.blueheronmarine.com/files/BlueSea_2009_Fuses.pdf

I have been too scared to even start on removing my door panels to complete my install and put in some mid bass drivers / tweets. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with 07 / 08 tahoes / avalanches and knew the right way to take the door panels / pillars out without breaking anything. After searching around for a while I couldn't find anything. I really don't want to mess it up too much.... it's basically brand new. (like 18's won't vibrate it apart anyway)..... Any help would be appreciated.

Ok i have 2 alpine type R's just lying around i was thinking of doin a t-line for them. HOw exactly do i do a t-line. HOw much power could i give them?

My brain is fried from this long week. I can't even think enough to try to figure this out. If someone can tell me I'd owe them one of the beers I'm about to drink. Here is a picture. These are internal measurements. I just need to know the volume of this thing. Thanks in advance!
