Subwoofers / Speakers

Im trying to decide how to get the most bang for the buck out of 2 twelves and a Hifonics BXi 2008D what im not sure is whether i should go with the q's or bl's im putting them in a jeep cherokee and any help on what ones i should get and ported or not would be awesome thanks.

Okay so i am getting a new system and i have few questions. 1. Why would i want 2 ohm subs over 1 ohm? 2. If i run 2 Subs to a mono amp what ohm do i want the subs to be? 3. Does everyone use both voice coils of subs? Whats the difference between using 1 and 2 coils. Thanks, Drake

whats everyone opinion on this sub and is there anything better?

I just bought 2 of them for my 97 blazer. I need a port diameter so i can build a ported box. Please let me know as i cant find it anywhere, Thank you -Mike

I'm in the process of planning out another system for my car. I have a Hyundai XG300 with about 5 cubes max to work with. I already have Infinity Kappa Components in the front and rear currently only powered by the H.U. (Alpine CDA-9886). For the sub woofer i have an 18" Fi Audio Bl With all options in a 5cuft box tuned to about 32Hz being pushed with a Kicker ZX1500.1. I Have Knu Konceptz Kolossus 1/0 AWG wire for power/ground with a Red Top under the hood. I have a Rockford 360.2 acting as my current S.S.F. (was going to use it for 4channel but never got around to ordering one). Im planning on selling all of this except the door speakers and redesigning my sub woofer s…

im looking at these Rockford Fosgate Power T152S what you guys think about them? im in a price range below 200 if any one got any better suggestions for 5.25" front stage. thank you dan

I've been an OZ Audio for the past 13 years. Unfortunately, they are no longer making speakers. I've been looking for a new company to go with as far as speakers and have been hearing a lot of good things about Hybrid. I can't seem to find any specs on the Legatia Pro series? Specifically the 6.5" comp set (or 7.1?). My speaker locations have a very limited outer diameter and mounting depth. Thanks

Alright guys i have a 99 monte carlo and the factory speaker size is 5.25" but i found very nice 6.5 speakers Image Dynamics CTX65CS i think for the price they are unbeatable but heres my questions is there any easy way to fit those into my car without any custom fabrication? Any help is appreciated. dan

Hey guys im pretty new here and iv just got into car audio heavily in the past couple months. Iv been slowly working my way up and not i rest with a Memphis m3 15" and a pr500 amp. Question is what do you guys recommend for some serious bass. Iv been looking into a Fi BL and sundown saz1200 is that a good choice or do you think there is something in the 6-800 range for amp and sub. Im totally open to anything but id like to keep it a single 15 seeing as the box i just built is for one.

I need to know if I can replace the stock 8 inch sub from a 2001 lincoln navigator with the polk momo mm2084 I can't find any ohmage info anything would be greatly appreciated.

i got just bought a four re sx 15's from a guy at work after i hooked it up but something about it i dont like so im selling it as soon as i get back home its in a caprice but anyway do you guys think i should go with four ported 12's i think they will fit or two ported 15's? im looking at the btl twelves or the t3 tss twelves what do yall guys think?

will the 2 BTL12's sound good on the saz 3000d or should i get a pair of something else?

Can anyone help me out. I have a 2002 S-10 ext. cab and for my sub amp I have a Infinity 611a which is around 650 watts @2ohm. I want to use 3 RE RE-10D4 but someone suggested 2 SR-12D2. I listen to a lot of rap bass heavy music and I just sold my L7 12 for a CVX 12 then I found RE. The reason for wanting to use those subs is $. I can purchase either setup for $150. Will the 3 10's or 2 12's output match the L7 or CVX ? I need some serious help with this and what type of box, sealed or ported. Thanks

I have a ram quad cab that they will be going in. I will be using the center console for the placement of the subs. Dim. that I have to work with are 26 long 17 high and 15.5 wide. Those dims or smaller but I have plenty of vol. for a wide range of subs. Subs will be in sealed enclosure. I'm wanting sq but with a little attitude. I'm using CDT ES 06 for mid bass in my doors and CDT ES 04 and tweets in kick panels. My amp that will be powering the subs is a US Amps old school 100 HC. Would like the amp to see 1 ohm so I can get full use of the amps power. Aprox. 1400 to 1600 watts at 1 ohm. Ok I listen to all kinds of music but mainly rock and metel with everythi…

i have an Orion H2 12 inch sub its rated at 2000 wrms my amp is rated 1200 wrms i've had it for quite a while now and im starting to get some mechanical noise, sorta sounds like its bottoming out, but i know thats not the case b/c it has like a 4 inch travel, and its def. not moving that far. i took it to the shop i bought i from and the guy promised that the sub was not blown, but said there might be something wrong with the leads. he said he wont send it in to Directed without the original reciept, which after like 7 months i of course dont have. its not that huge of a deal cause i think im gonna get a Fi BL pretty soon, but do you guys have any idea what could possibly…

I need to build a new box for my SPL 15 due to getting a new vehicle (2005 Jeep Liberty). I'm thinking of going 3 cubic feet NET tuned to 38hz or so with 58 square inches of port area. Will this work out ok or do I need more air space? This will be a daily set up and likely won't be used to compete so I want something that is loud and decent sounding. Power wise I will be using a RF T30001bd @ 4ohm. I was previously using a 4.2 cubic foot box tuned to 32hz and it was quite good sounding but lacking in volume. I figured this time I would tune higher and try a smaller box to save some space.

now i've heard that tweeters are very tempermental. i've heard stories of them conestantly blowing due to WAY to much power.... now upon thinking you could just hook up a crossover and restrict the power? right? also with the current engineering of the 6.5's and 6x9's is it even worth it to put in 2 or even 4 tweeters? (two in the front pillars, two by backseat passangers head). also the V-MAX cerwin vega seem like a good deal for about 50$ you get the 2 tweets and a crossover or in that case is it better to go with a higher end tweet system (if one is needed at all) and spend the extra 40$ per pair? my current system (after getting some things) 2 alpine type S 6x9's in t…

i am having someproblems finding a mounting position for my tweeters. If i made a box for them and mounted them on the floor but level with the bottom of seat will they sound bad? they will not be obstructed and they will have plenty of room to play. i am concerned with having a complete full sound. i want my music to blend well with my subs. they are oing in a lincoln towncar.

I am still up in the air about what i want to do with the limited amount of space i have available in my car. i remeasured everything and i realistically have about 3.5 cu ft gross to work with. I am pretty decided on building a nice baffle and facing into the cabin with subs. not sure if i should port forward or into the factory 6x9 openings in the rear deck. If i port forward, i am not sure if i should go with aeros or slot it. if i did it through the rear deck i guess that i would have to do aero ports. As for subs, i can either go dual 10" or 1 12, maybe 2 12"'s if they are lower Qts. This is a temporary install as well, but i need it to be somewhat decent. So i gues…

huge question for true bass heads... im looking for a clear crisp yet hard hitting deep bass.... which one of the two would you recommend https://ssl.perfora.net/www.ficaraud...ew.shopscript# or http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Produ...es_a nd_specs 15inch by the way also for them both....just want one...and they are gonna get powered by this http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1199494646259 and the reason im goin with best buy amp is because i can get it for almost half off with my friends discount..... i have one type-r 12in in my trunk now but im lookin for more hard hitting deeper bass....what you think??? keep in mind i dont wanna spend anything over 500-600

im looking for some good 6.5 mids for my 2005 durango. my factory radio is amplified. i will be adding an aftermarket amp for my aftermarket HU for mids. ( i tend to take out all my aftermarket stuff alot(crooks) ) i have a pioneer 6000 deck "new style", 18'' loaded btl; amp got stolen but getting a sundown 3000, but im going to switch between that and my kicker L7 of a us amps 1600.4 bridged at 4 ohms to put 1100 rms to the L7. so there will be plenty of bass. i have tried the alpine type R mids and they did not work for me. i was thinking focal. but ide like to get a few idea's from you guys. and what amp would you recomend on them. thanks.

hi, my freind that i wound up selling my xxx componot set to told me that they are making a mechincal type noise whenever they get past half volume. And he has them powering off of a sundown sax100.2 and set for 20volts at 2 ohms (200watts) now he left me them to mess around with them and i got them to not make the noise if i turn down the equalizer ( it's an alpine 9887) so was it just the speakers reaching their mechincal limit or should i tell him to start looking for new speakers. i already emailed re audio but have not gotten a response yet. thanks
