Sup, Everyone been out the lime light for awhile now, well funny thing happened today. First things first, been mia, cus someome took my system last year about this same time. So jumped on craigslist and there my sh** wuz right there looking at me, a box w/ 2 dc lvl4 beefed up w/ lvl5 coils, 12's that is ,box 3.24^3 per sub tuned @ 32hz, and a saz 1500d, for $350. Called dude here in town showed him the pics. on my phone of the box and subs. wanted to argue about it but he bought it from someone last year, paid the cash got my system back but, just doesn't feel right, had to do it tho, fool didn't even know what he had, had to get that back mad and grinning at the sameti…

whats the diffrent sound between a pair of nightshade 15 hooked up to he saz3500 compared to 2 of the ssa icon hooked up to that same amp?

When making a box can the whole backside of the box be made of plexi i really like when you open the trunk and see the magnet..

i was browsing through the internet at different car audio companys and i saw one called audioque and a 3500 watt amp for 549 does anyone know much about this product?

does anyone know of any soundoffs or any car audio shows coming up in the next few months or so in phoenix az?is there any sites that list that information i always miss them..

when doing a system in a trunk whats the best way to get the sound intko the cabin so its not stuck just in the trunk?can you make a cut out in the rear deck?

i measured my trunk i dont know if i did it right ,from front to back its 46 inches the height is 19 iches and the length 42 inches and then more towards the back of the car trunk its 56 inches if youve seen a chrysler 300 trunk then you know what i mean.i wanted to know if i could fit 3 xcon 12s in there i know zero about boxes anything will help...thanks

i live in Phoenix Az and i am gonna start ordering my equipment but all we have is little shitty shops out here who never heard of ssa or sundown does anyone know of any installers out this way?Even a little travling distance from me ...

would the saz 4500 be way to much for two 15 x con subs?The reason i ask is i know i can get 2 fibtl and be good but i like and support ssa subs i have a chrysler 300 and as far as i know i can get 2 subs in there,and i love the price on the 4500 i know people are gonna say the saz 3500 will work but i cant pass up the saz 4500..can the subs take it and will it be loud?

Thinking of running 4 FUSION REACTOR 4" Coaxials http://www.fusioncaraudio.com/north-....aspx#addninfo, 2 in each door. I want to make a plate to fit 2 in each of my factory 2003 Mazda Protege ES 5x7 positions in my front doors. Will be running them off a DSC450 bridged, so 100 watts rms a set. With 2 Kenwood KFC-ST30 tweets in the factory mounts run off the deck, 22 watts rms. No rear fill, gonna leave 6x9 holes open. I want to try something different, tired of just replacing factory speakers with same size upgrades, but not ready to do full blown door pods yet. So, what do y'all think? I think it would be nice and loud yet crisp. Not really anal about having alot of mid…

What happens when u put a subwoofer made for a ported enclosure only, in a sealed box?

Okay I think I finally figured out what I'm going to get for my boyfriend again but I'm not exactly sure what kind he needs. I am looking for a clamp on volt meter. He just got a craftsman one but it isn't very good. He said tthe kind he wants is I guess really expensive. please if you know anything about volt meters....good ones please help me out! =] thankss

I have a kinda small box for a ported 6 1/2" Bose woofer. It sounds alright, but i can't fit much more in the bag. I was wondering if polyfill would have somehat of the same effect in a ported box as it would in a sealed box. I did want to ask the difference in effect, between stuffing and padding, because i have heard of both being used. I am looking to shift the tuning down a little bit.

ok i 2 alpine type rs dual 4 ohm voice coils. i have 2 cadence txa750ds.....you can hook them together to get more power...but my problem is that when you hook up the two amps it can only handle a 2ohm load...bbut if i hook up just 1 amp it can handle a 1 ohm load......so what iwant to know is should i bridge the 2 amps and run it at 4 ohms or should i just run 1 at 1 ohms....there is no spec for the amp if its bridged with a 4 ohm load..............thanks

I am planning on purchasing an Audioque HDC3 18", and I'm knowing I'm going to need to do some electrical upgrading. I currently own a 2005 civic coupe, but plan on later moving this to a dodge magnum. After my last install I learned the hard way to not be into so much of a rush and take care of some electrical upgrades first. What supplies is needed for " THE BIG THREE" and I would prefer to start off with buying batteries before I have to go all out for the alternator, knowing of course I will also need new wiring. Which brands should I be looking into as far as wiring and other needs. I believe the HDC3 18" is pretty efficient , don't want to go overpower it too too…

As for the process of going Active I understand that part, my definition of going active is letting your headunit, processor or amp's crossover capabilities control the speakers frequency range. Instead of using one speaker to play a wide range of frequencies you can split them up into a 2-way sytem (midbass/midrange and tweeters) or 3-way system (midbass, midrange and tweeters); where each speaker plays its own certain frequency range such as midbass, midrange and highs. That is my simple understanding of going active and not the best or most accurate definition. Now onto the question at hand I use Eminence Alpha-6a for now on my Sundown SAX-125.2 (2 per channel) and the…
