That's Me............................. Anyone else on here joined yet?

:ugh: :denim:

JUst curious man, Rockford use to be the Goto company for me, now it seems as if they have been conversing with best buys pres. or something to sale crap.... The last RF sub i bought was last years model, it said it could handle 900 rms right, so i got my jbl 1200.1, had the gains down, but had it so it could play a lil bit, after about 3 days i was back at BB asking for another sub, gotta love there warranty policy...HAHAHAHA, That could be a thing to do buy a whole lot of BB subs, get the warrant, goto comps burp the subs at whateva ya wanted, then take them all back hahaha... But i really dont know ABout RF any more, their stuff looks nice, but i have not really heard …

The sub MTX 9500d 12" dual 4ohm Box for the 12 (2cuft 36Hz 1" HDF w/ double-thick baffle) The amp JBL Powervalve BP1200.1 that I got for $200 from sounddomain.com. IT was supposed to be a scratched open-box item, but it was new when it got here.. woot The cable 0 gauge Audio Pipe w/ Stinger HPM and Custom Pro connectors

I have heard many a system, and honestly...no system I have EVER heard sounds "bad" every system does sound different though. I have taken a TON of subs and probably gone through 12 boxes in my hatch. None of them sounded remotely bad. So, I have started to just ignore SQ, the only time I have heard a system that wasnt up to par, it was a box issue. I'll be making the ultimate test here soon. I will be doing a setup with a dB drive platinum 15, everyone I talk to says they have very low SQ. So, I'm going to throw 2000 daily to one in a good box, and SQ to a rest. -Alex

.............. I don't have that much $$$ flow right now and my current setup of 2 JL 10"s just aren't doing the trick. I was offered a box that holds two 12"s but I don't know the dimensions of the box (it was in an 88 Camaro) ........ I was wondering what would be a cheap way for me to get by with some good sounds........... I was thinking maybe 2 Rockford HX2's and some somewhat cheap amp............ any help/recommendations would be largely appreciated........ Thanks, Jonathan Idk...... maybe some Audiobahn's or something......... I'm up for any info or recommendation........ Thanks …

Can anyone tell me how I can hook stuff up so I can play music through my laptop? My laptop has 1000's of songs from CD's and what not. Any receiver on the market can't top my laptop. Any way you could help me figure this out please do. Thanks, Jonathan

http://www.tb-speaker.com/detail/1208_03/w8-740c.asp i found the link to these 8's on another forum,they are supposed to be comparable to the RE8 i was thinking of using alot of them (like 6 or 8) for an interesting install in my reg cab sdime i removed the 60/40 seats so i have room to make a custom center console and i have the room behind and under the seats i kno itd really blow to wire these but other than that, what do u guys think the pros and cons would be any other opinions or ideas would be appreciated! also, how do u guys think this would match up to a ported 12"d2? thanx Tom

I have to install all my crap in a Durango this Saturday...but I won't have alot of time. Was wondering if anyone had any tips/pictures of how they ran some wire in there...for power and rca's. An 89 blazer was the last SUV install I did lol.

Well, today I built my box, still not finished though- have to make clamps for the plug and resin the inside, and a few other things...but here it is... 9.4 cubes tuned to 47 hz, plug for 33 hz http://www.nugs.auto-forums.com/newbox2.jpg http://www.nugs.auto-forums.com/newbox3.jpg http://www.nugs.auto-forums.com/newbox4.jpg BTW- A 18" SX will be going in, powered by 4 American Bass CX1200d amps, a pair strapped @ 1 ohm for each coil

...and it smells funny. That is all.

ok, i got a hatchback and about 8-9 cubes to put it in. 2 RE 12' HC's and am gonna build a big enclosure. what do u recommend for the box size, and wat it should be tuned to. i listen to lots of rap and occasionally rock. ty in advance. Sorry im still a newb lol.

So what did Fed Ex bring to the door today?? Here is a hint How many decals??

I hear you guys got loud woofers? Any truth to this? I thought it was just a rumor How you been man? Things returning back to normal there? And any word on greg davis? Dont want him turning into no ted kosinski

well after about 6 months of design and prep work my new install is almost finished. ***it has been Top Secret for the whole time---a few people know about it*** here is some teasers though duel 250 amp alts----1 subwoofer----1 amp----1 HU----a few batterys don't worry----i will post pics when finished

how much would you guys pay for a billet alluminum subwoofer grill to fit your sub no matter the size or shape it is.... i can have them made but there a little pricey, so im trying to get an idea on who would pay to have them... im going have a few made plus if someone wanted something else on the grill i can make it for a little more, so it would be one of a kind.... remember this is billet aluminum not no cheap plastic so the price of the aluminum and the cost of useing a C-N-C machine is not cheap, but if i have a few orders i can get the price down... jamie

I wasn't going to but the stock speakers have horrible cone breakup and it's driving me absolutley nuts. So I might aswell. The system has to be simple and mostly from items I already have. Space is a consideration since the vans main purpose is work (lots of tools supplies etc in the back). The Vehicle is a 1997 AWD Astro Cargo Van. 2 seats and the rest is wide open (1 parts shelf a foot or so back from the drivers seat all the way to the back doors). I'll use an RFX-8240 for source. (Maybe I'll fashion a feaux 'stock deck' face.) I have a set of old MB Quart separates 6.5" QM 160TC mids 1" QM 19HC Titanium tweets with Passive crossovers. Figure stock (door) locations …

I just had an idea on a sub enclosure for my 2002 reg cab s10..... what im thinking is to take out both seats and make an enclosure shaped like a bench seat (with cushion and carpet covering it) with a sub firing backwards behind where each seat was or maybe one firing backwards in the middle i havent worked out any details yet but i need opinions, because i dunno how safe this would be, say if i got into an accident or even if i could make a box sturdy enuf to support myself and other ppl Now, time for you guys to either tell me how stupid it is(cuz it might very well be lol) or gimme some help designing it!! any pros or cons would help!! Thanx Tom

I got a couple hundred bucks to burn and want to see what I can do with my leased 2003 Jetta. I will want to keep the stock headunit in (will it still be possible for the system to be good?). Speakers, amp, and sub is basically what I will be limited to. Can I make something happen on a $300 budget? Are bazookas/powered subs total crap? I don't want cheap sounding, ground shaking bass. I would say I'm looking for 65% clarity and 35% power
