Probably a stupid question but I'm wondering how I would go about hooking up my 15" SSD to my home stereo receiver. I think its a 100 watt per channel receiver @ 4 or 8 ohms. Just wondering if there is any way to do this or is it just stupid.

so i'm riding down the road the other night with a friend at 3am and not a car in sight in my town, and the police drive by. Just to show you how bored the police are in the town, they pull us over, LOL, then tell me that we are not allowed to ride bikes at night with a head light on it! WTF, a headlight on a fuckn bike! And that if they see us out next time i'll get a ticket! LOL anyone got a simular story of small town bored fuckn cops? Ok, i'm done ranting now.lol

Ok so the blk plate is a metal piece for my back seats and bolts into the gray metal part of my cars body. the bolt goes touches both metal spots so can i ground on top of the black plate? (i will sand the paint off of course if i can use it)

Soooo, some stupid drugged up moron stole a truck on the other side of my neighborhood....while running from the cops he plowed right through my truck and totalled it completely....right after just getting it ready to put a system in a blowthrough. Sooo, now I am pimpin a nice newer 2008 F150 FX2 (bright red)....it is pretty sexy....anyway, I dont think I really want to do a blowthrough anymore. This truck looks more like a performance truck, so I am thinkin of just putting some subs under the back seats (4 dr) to keep the weight down a little. I have never sat in a truck that had subs under the seats......how do they sound and can they get decently loud? again, this …

I can do custom vynl decals. If you would like one please post here or email at [email protected] and we will work out a price.

Whenever I'm blasting my sub my fuse will blow in less than a minute. I'm running 80amp AGU fuse with 4 gauge wires and a PPI 2200 amp. What could cause this? Is there anyway I can fix this problem? I'm not sure but I think my ground wire is a 8 gauge. Oh and I'm looking to have someone build a custom box for me that involves bending plexi glass.

1989 Honda CRX Dx well i pretty much stole this car from this lady that was selling it. The car is pretty much flawless inside and out for an 89. has no rust and 214,000 miles. had to get an automatic for the wife. bought this car because the price of gas and my escalade gets 16mpg max on the interstate. well i purchased this car for $1100 from a lady in chicago today. i found it on craiglist and luckily i found it when i did cuz i instantly emailed her and told her i had cash in hand and would pick it up this weekend because she said she had ALOT of people asking about it because she was only asking $1200. i even talked her down $100. WOOT!! sorry bout the pic…

looking for different ideas on sub setups & any other advice on this build ? I have a 97 suburban if it helps ? This is the equipment have so far memphis 1000d, sound stream xta 480.4, and 6.5 cliff designs in the front doors,: I was looking at getting 2 ssd 15s any input is appreciated.

I usually am used to seeing boxes with the shape of a port like a L, but the box was to be tuned to 32 hz and is missing the piece of wood that is found behind the cutout usually... what is wrong here?

I would like to know if anyone has any tips on how to adjust/tune my head unit and amp so i can get the best preformance and sound quality without messing anything up... My head unit is a pioneer DEH P3100UB and my amp for my front stage components is a cadence xenith. A thiong on the head unit i kinda dont understand is when i am on EQ 2 if i remember correctly on the option for highs i can adjust from 1k, 8k, 10k, or 12k and another option i can choose is 1w, 2w, 1n, or 2n. I dont really know what that stuff means or is and under the mids it gives me the option of 200hz, 500hz. Cant remember what else from the top of my head, sorry. But it also gives me the option 1w, 2…

hey guy, this is a branch from my original post. found this amp for sale let me know what you guys think http://www.lanzar.com/itempage.asp?MODEL=VIBE250 the guy wants 165 obo for it. yes? no? Jeremy

Hi guys have a question im looking at buying a car audio battery for my system and i was told i need one that does 100 amps per hour. And i was wondering if anyone could list me some good brands out there for under 200 that puts out 100 amps per hour and tell me what is amps per hour.

I understand that things are almost always "build, test, tear down, build, test; nothing works the same for everyone," but I'm wondering what others' experiences are with sub and port placement/alignment in a small Suv? 1) Would it be better to have the port rear firing into the hatch; or have the port firing up, parallel to and right up against the hatch? Assuming both enclosures take up the entire cargo area just under the window line and same external dimensions. Thinking that firing into the hatch would create more unwanted rattle, which could possibly hurt output(not to mention, sound like ass)? 2) Slot port running the width of the box, along the floor, vs…

I'm looking for some seleniums to put in my truck. I want two selenium horns and maybe selenium midbass drivers and supertweeters to put in my doors. I've looked at parts express but there doesn't seem to be a big variety If anyone knows a good website or dealer? And is It worth to look at horns under $100?

I've got a leftover system that was in my truck, that I'm going to be putting into my car. I'm not sure what the general opinion on my equipment is, though....I've got a Phoenix Gold Octane R DVC 12" sub, in a ported box right now (tuned to 37hz), and a Audio Systems Twister F4>380 4-channel amp. (http://www.audiosystem-america.com/f4380.html) What are your guys' opinion on this? I'm not sure of the RMS of the sub, so would it be safe to bridge 2 channels for each coil, or should I just run it as a 4-channel amp? If I do that, then I can also use it to power a set of door speakers.

alright. i have an 8 ohm sub amp that is stock with my altec-lansings. totally wrong forum, i know it seems but wait. it is in my backpack, so there for it is mobile. well it isnt in a car, but thats not the point! 5" woofer, two bose 3's for mids, and two 50w roadmaster tweets. runnin highs and mids series'd , with crossovers of course, at 2ohms but woofer is at 8. would it be safe to run two 4 ohm woofers series'd at 2 ohm on an 8 ohm amp? thinkin bout these: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=264-831 in this http://www.alteclansing.com/images/product...arge/vs2321.jpg main concern is decent LSQ. lous as a mutha(expletive) now but thats just the highs…

Round two. I never decided on what I was going to name my HT towers. I want to get a couple gold plaques engraved with a name on it. If there's any other suggestions, let me know. "Stallone" is "stallion" in Italian. "Apollo" was the Greek olympian God of the arts. "Potente" is "powerful" in Italian. "Zephyr" ... you know, the new Lincoln. "Mondo" ... might go with that one, personal meaning.

I see this brand around alot online...are these interconnects gonna do my system justice? any personal experience out there...

I've got a small trunk space to work with. I'm looking to do 1 12 ported or 2 10s sealed. I listen to mainly rap a little metal then whatever fits the mood. Sub budget around 250. Amp budget around the same. What are some good options with the given info?

I'm new to this forum but I'm joining the SSA family. I ordered 2 SSA evil 12s. They will be on a twisted 65000v2 @ .5 I'm on team deadly hertz as well. Figured I would make a username and drop in. Can't wait to run SSA

Swapped my sealed fifteens for the BTL again for my listening/HT setup; super basic question, any reason not to do up firing? I have always loved the look upwards firing setups, maybe because my heart is in the trunk of an suv it seems to register just fine. the cabinet is massive, forward firing is wacky looking; I'm using the opposite side as rack for amps. Is sag an issue in a typical setup or only in setups where limits are being tested?

My company is developing the industry's first line of factory replacement headunits. They require no dash kit and wiring harness on various model vehicles which are entirely "Bolt-n-Replace" with factory look, often factory functionality as well as like steering wheel controls and in-demand features like Bluetooth, Navigation, iPod, XM, Sirius Satellite and DVD. We need Sound Solutions Audio to help us strategize which features and model vehicles would be best. We're launching next month with models for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Buick, Chevy, Hummer, Pontiac, Saturn, Suzuki, Toyota, Scion and Volkswagen with more to follow and want to ensure that we…

"To low of amp wattage will cook the sub" is what ive heard a few times and always thought that it was false. I have normally under powered my subs and never had a problem, not even on installs for other people and never a problem at all. Just want to hear what other people have to say?
