I decided to give my mom a very short preview of my 2 mojo 15's on my saz3000d. This is not the best reaction video because she has heard many of my previous setups. However, it is funny every time. The cheap camera does not capture the cleanness of the bass. It just sounds like truck rattle. Anyways enjoy.

So i have been looking at forum posts lately and i have come a across a word a few times and i don't fully understand it and i was wondering if someone could help me out! the word is "going active" like what does that mean? i have heard that before in movies but when i hear it, it doesn't mean anything good. so i thought i would just ask a noob question and maybe get lol at or be the bright point in someone's day!! thanks for helping Kenneth

Hey, I'm getting back into the swing of building again after a long period of no fabrication, and I'm trying to find a dual or triple bracket system for a 98 f-150 truck. I suppose I should try a metal shop or something first? Another question I have is when you got to plug in the control module or power wires do you just splice them all? Any information or experience would be helpful. Thanks

anyone have download links for custom songs or any songs for download?

planning on purchasing the Q1-1200D and running a FI Q12 at 1 ohm producing 1200watts. If I were to switch the FI Q12 for say an SSA Gcon 12 rated at 750rms and running the Q1-1200D at 2 ohms producing 870watts would the response/SQ etc. be different ? What I'm really wondering is stressing the amp at 1 ohm pushing the Q12 produce not as good clear/SQ/responsive bass then running it at 2ohms with a Gcon 12? Or for comparing purposes say the ICON 12 with Q1-1200D at 1 ohm vs the GCON 12 with Q1 at 2 ohms produce a different sound ? I'm not asking for SPL/LOUD but a difference in sound clarity/response etc. in the bass. I hope my question is clear LOL. My main goal is …

Everyone has their own way of doing stuff and I'm sure you guys all have some little tricks you use whether it be for installing, building, tuning, etc. Would be kinda cool just to see what everyone does. I'll start....when something is rattling but I can't tell from where, I plug my nose and keep my mouth shut, then I try to exhale. It cuts out all of the bass and you can clearly hear things rattling. The same thing happens when you plug your nose while you sneeze, or if you yawn.

are these any good? or are they high powered fart-cannons? two of dese on a SAZ-3kd? worth the time it takes to setup? http://www.stompaudio.com/spl-15-2800-watt...3a79638fda3eed3

I have A 97 Jeep Grand Cherokee I hooked up a head unit I get sound from it from all the doors and hooked up a amp I thought properly but I was sounding nice the first day then the next mourning I turned it on and I didnt hear any subwoofers the speakers are good I hooked them up to a different system and they worked .I'm so confused I wonder if I have some door speakers crossed and thats stoping it I hooked up at least twelve amps and changed everything that I can change and still no sound ????The only other thing that I can think off to get sound is to hook up a RCA inverter well thats what i think well what do you all think? please help

I am thinking about buying my new Pioneer Premier DEH-800PRS and iPod adapter from www.wooferetc.com Total would be $475 shipped. I was wondering if anyone has been screwed over by them? And if so, how and what happened? If I don't buy it from there for $399, I would buy it from a local store for $479...... I would rather buy from wooferetc.com, as long as it's a legit site. They claim to be BBB, and a AAA rated site.

I don't know how many of you know much about Thilo Stampler, TC Sounds, and Audiopulse. I recently visited thier forum(which I do on occasion) and was amazed by what a sad collection of wannabe-ghetto trash that has infested the site. You have people posting other people criminal records, "authorized dealers" spouting profanity, and the same 3-5 people posting anything anywhere they can generally bad-mouthing anyone with anything decent or intelligent to say. I feel bad for Thilo because unfortunately THIS is his public face. http://www.audiopulse.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=102

I just bought a 2007 2dr automatic GTI, Pkg 1 no leather, with sunroof. With todays technology are all Amps the same other than power rating? I listen to a lot of AM talk radio so I still need good AM reception. When I listen to music I listen to all types except RAP, HOUSE, AND INDUSTRIAL, I do listen to: Bluegrass, Jazz, rock, bagpipes, pipe organ, motown, country, new age, punk, classical... I am trying to decide what amps to go with. I think there are some digital like Alpine. Also a/b, d Should I go aftermarket head unit or stay stock and do I loose or gain features on steering wheel or otherwise. I am not interested in motorcycles flying across the display. I w…

After too much planning my friend has decided to drop money for the system in his maxima and here is what we came up with... Headunit: Pioneer Premier 6900 Amp: Kicker 650.4 Speakers: Pioneer Premier TS-C720PRS Subwoofers: 2x 12" SD-1 Miscellanous: Knu 4 Gauge Amp Kit KOL-AK44 Deadning: 1 Roll Raamat BXT and 5 yards of ensolite Mostly I will be stuffing the deading and ensolite into the doors and trunk to help the midbass and trunk rattle as much as possible. The 2 12's will be in a ported box tuned nice and low (sub 30's). I'm thinking a foward fire with ports runni…

well i had some time to mess around with things today in the gf's car (05 grand am) and got to taking apart the doors. to my suprise the stocks are 4x6's and not the 6.5's i assumed they were . didnt really want to get to involved with it as i said, its the gf's car. think some decent 4" or 4x6's with amp would be good enough or should i bare down and custom the 6.5's? if you were in my sit. what would you do?

Hey I'm doin a build for a guy. He wants a fiberglass console. I am trying to see what materials I am going to need. (mdf, resin, and fleece.) Is that all? Also when I build the box do I just bulid the skeleton, stretch the fleece over it, and paint on the resin? I've bbuilt several boxes but never done much fiberglass so all info is appreciated.

Where can I find a reseller of Treo amps and speakers? I have Googled twice, and came up with nothing. I just want to find out pricing for now, as Treo are a bit slow sometimes with responding. Thanks
