Subwoofers / Speakers

Ok, I'm redoing my system in my truck. I have a 15" Fi Q going in a 32hz 3.6cu box. I have a JL Audio 300/4 I picked up for cheap that will be here soon. I plan on picking up a Premier 880 or 800 in the next few weeks. I currently have 2way Infinity Reference speakers in there off HU power. I want a component setup that would sound great active or passive for around $200. I've never done active and I think that I may give it a shot. What are some good sets for the money? They are going in the factory door location. No kick pods. I was looking at the CDT CL-62 with the upgraded 1" titanium tweeter, and also Focal's Access 165. Any help would be great.

i plan to buy a sundown audio sd-2 12 dual 2 ohm and wil be running with autotek mm1-1500d. at 1 ohm in a 7 seated car toyota noah which is the best box can i make for it ported

Ok, let me start by saying I don't know chit about active, passive, crossovers, etc. I'm looking to get a new highs setup. I have a set of cadence components which I guess would be passive. I have a singlecab silverado so I was kinda thinking about losing the rear speakers completely and running just the front. Im guessing active would be the best way to go. What do I need to do this? I plan on getting 2 mli-65's to start and a good four-channel amp. The HU i have now is a pioneer premier DEH6800MP. From what i've read, I dont think this HU is that great when it comes to the audio settings. I'm debating on replacing the pioneer with an eclipse cd5000 but what do you g…

Hey guys, been a long time since I've been around on the forum here. I've mainly been doing performance stuff on my car, but am bored again with my system in the truck. I have an 08' crew cab silverado and already had a custom box with 2 JL8w7's. Rear seat has been lifted 2" to accommodate larger boxes. I just picked up a DD m1c as I think that's the most powerful amp i'll be able to use without further upgrading my electrical system. I can build a box up to a a total of about 2.7 cubic feet, maybe 3.0 total absolutely maxing out space. I can fit 8's front facing, or if I downfire them I can fix up to 15" with up to 7.5" mounting depth. I'm looking for as loud as p…

well, i am having trouble on deciding which maw to go with; 12 or 15. i am looking for LSQ. my setup is as follows: HU: Eclipse 5423 Comps: PG RSd65CS Amp: Kicker KX700.5 (140wx2 @ 4ohms, 400wx1 @ 2 ohms) i am working with the trunk of a mustang so space is limited. if i went with the maw 15, which i was planning on, it would have to go in a sealed enclosure with the sub facing upwards towards the rear deck (no rear fill, deadened) - which i read was not a great idea. if i went with the maw 12 i have room to go ported, but obviously loose cone area. i dont have any experience with either sub, so i figured you guys are the ones to help me out. it just seems that for nearly…

Im hoping some of you music wizards can help me with another system. I have a crew cab Silverado and I want a bad ass daily system. I don't want to take my back seats completely out, if I can help it I want an enclosure that I can slide if I needed to. I'm not trying to spend $$$$$$$ on a system. With that being said the amps that I can't seem to take my attention off of is the Saz3500 v2, fosgate t2500.1bdcp, and saz2500 v2, and I still have my saz3500 v1 that works perfect. My budget is $1000 for subs. I have about 7.8 cubes to work with. As far as the type of enclosure and tuning...it really dosent matter. I just want a ground pounder that digs deep and sound good

I have an AP Epic 8" sub coming in the mail from Mike @ soundsplinter. I have yet to ever hear or play with these and want to know what others have had good results with. (enclosure size, tune freq, port area)

1 Mach5 SPL12 2 AQ2200s @ 1ohm strapped 147.0 @ 43hz........LEGALLLL Was a local show.....i was loudest by far, next loudest was 4 12 JLs with a 142 legal That is all i have to say about thatttt Mach5 :eek::eek::eek: AQ amps :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: For comparasion: 12 HDC-A and 500.1 @ 1ohm = 146 @44hz legal in my truck with a semi-similar box

Alright ... dual Shiva's ... amp = Arc 1500D-R. Right now they're firing upwards in 1.25 cubes per driver. I'm pleased with their performance, but I personally think they can do a bit more. I've tried 1 cube per driver, 1.25/driver, and 1.5/driver all sealed, with and without polyfill. I stuck with the 1.25/driver with polyfill just because that's what sounded the best to me. I've also tried 1.75/driver ported to 24hz. Wasn't too bad. Keep in mind they are firing upwards. It's a Chevy 2500HD ... big truck, four door, custom center console ... woofers in the back half of the truck firing upwards. Bucket seats in the back if you can picture it ... the console divides…

looking for a recone thats off brand th@t will fit the MOFO 152X model ... maybe someone can put me in the rite direction

I want the Sundown Audio SA-15. Two of them. And a SAZ-2500D. One of it. Will I overpower the subs? I know, i know, the specs say 600rms but I want to hear some experienced people tell me how hard they bang and if they can handle more. Just looking for some nice project ideas.

thanx to you guys i now have box plans for a 12" magnum d2 in a 2.65^3 box before displacements tuned to 28hz using two 4"x40.5" aero ports two questions tho, would the 500/1 be enough get the d2 moving? also, how much more sound will i get out of it if i used a higher power amp? thanx Tom

SI is doing a system in a customers house and we ordered the 9" Sunfire Jr subwoofer for this application (cost and size). For those of you who don't know what a Sunfire Jr is, it is an 8" driver with an 8" PR and a 1400 watt amplifier all inside a 9" cube that is finished beautifully (a deep deep deep red - almost black - wood laquered finish)! We hooked it up next to the line arrays and this little sucker wangs HARD! On normal music it kept up with the line arrays just fine - ample bass all the way around, fairly tight...actually pretty darned tight for an out-of-the-box PR setup. The extension on this little bugger is impressive! It did just fine with an 85 Hz c…

I bought a set of RE AUDIO RE12D4's. I can't find any real info them. Anyone have an idea of what to expect put of um? Now that I'vd read throught the specs I'm not to thrilled I got them.

Which one do you guys recommend for utilizing in an enclosure to fasten the subs? Also a bolt to match with them??? Going in .75" MDF http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=081-1084 http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=081-1082

Dude i thought i was one of the few, and the proud who have si products in my car. But i was wrong, i was in someone elses car and saw a black two door car, i think it was a sunfire. but anywho, who are yah and what do you have in the trunk. also where did you get your sticker? i like yours better than mine. B)

Well, apparently i blew my sub this evening and i am very frustrated =/ If someone with any idea of what i can do to fix the sub id gladly appreciate your comments. I posted a thread in another forum and heres the link to what happened. http://www.s10forum.com/forum/f27/uh-ohh-334243/ Does anyone happen to have the phone number to reach Fi headquarters so that i can talk in person? I believe Scott is the man to talk to

I currently have 2 Kicker Comps 10" (lol, I know) running at 150 RMS each in a sealed enclosure. I have a Fi BL 12" on the way that will be powered by a Sundown SAE 1200d in a ported enclosure. Just curious as to how much of a difference there should be? Should be a lot, hopefully. I realize there is a lot of variables that involve this. But just ballpark it.

Hey, Just wondering how long its take to recone xcon d2 12? waited almost 3 weeks

145.8.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Very-Rare-Hemp-Acousti...1QQcmdZViewItem i wonder what it can do? LOL

Hey guys, I've got 250 RMS to work with from my cadence four channel amp and I'm debating about getting an SSA Dcon. Does anyone know when the 12" Single 4 ohm version will be back in stock? And I listen to a lot of hip hop and rap, what do you think my best box size and port frequency would be for my likes? Also, does anyone know of a good box maker in the indianapolis area or a pre-made box online that'll work well with a 12" Dcon on 250 watts? Thanks a bunch everyone!

Need a new efficient comp set. Doors are well sound deadend, and have about 65rms @ 4ohm or 130rms @ 2ohm to work with (I dont like to run my amps at full power, especially in this heat). Looking for a as much midbass as I can get (resonably), and very dull tweeters. I cant stand high pitched sounding tweets, I have my Crescendos on -3DB and the HU's 5th band set to -5DB to get them right for me. For budget, Im looking for the best bang for the buck. $80-100 or less would be ideal, though I can do about $150-160 at most. I was thinking of trying Infinity since they are 2ohm and will get me a bit more power. The Refrence 6030CS or Kappa 60.9CS. Was also considering a set…
