Subwoofers / Speakers

I recently bought a 99 ext cab chevy silverado. I am going to buy a pre fab box since i dont have the time or the resources to build a box. The box will be a downfiring underseat sealed box with 2 chambers with .92 cubes per sub, and a mounting depth of 7". The holes can be cut for round or square subs. I will be listening to rap, rock, and country. I need advice on a good subs/amp combo for this box and truck. My budget would be around $800 for the subs and amp.

as my sig says...i did run two 15" treo ss's off a single memphis 1000d in a dodge ram..... now i don't have the dodge..the memphis is sold and my treo's are sitting in the garage.... here is what i am wanting to do....two 15's, either 3000wrms or 4800wrms to the subs (depends on what amps i decide to go with), iggy altenator, 3 svr batts(one under hood, two for the sub amps) a 6.5 componet set and around 150 wrms for them.... now here is the reason for the post....... i am considering 2 15" memphis mojo max's...2 memphis 1500d's or mojo's...memphis sq componets and a memphis pr series amp for them(maybe a 4 channel so i can run a pair of m series 8's for mid bass..dunno)…

I'm looking to get some tweeters soon and seeing what you guys think would be a good choice .. I have 4 crescendo pwx's right now and I see people saying a lot that the ft1 tweeters don't match up to good. I'm looking for something that will. Probably wanting to spend 100 or under So far the front stage will be Clarion cz702 ppi a600.2 Ppi a100.2 Crescendo pwx's Going to be running an active front stage. Let me know if y'all want to know anything else

http://www.tymphany.com/datasheet/printview.php?id=221 anyone ever used them ? got them almost for free and i remember i saw a project using a vifa D26NC55 http://www.zaphaudio.com/tidbits/D26NC55-halfinchhorn.pdf http://www.zaphaudio.com/tidbits/D26NC55-parts.jpg mine have a very similar mounting flange and i thought about getting it off and doing something similar to what's in the link (to replace what i currently have in the MT's) only trouble is they seem glued to the flange : i need some ideas to remove the glue

Hello all. Hope you`re all doing fine I strill haven`t had a chance to alter the Escort install. But I have been messing about with my vectras boot install. Check this out: See this weird box... 6th Order bandpass or simply a tunnel in a boot. This box is far better than any box I have ever made It plays low. It plays loud. It plays a very wide musical frequency with accuracy and is practically flat in it`s overall frequency response. O.K. The system specs. Vectra Sri - Boot System. 1x HMM Box- That`s what I`m calling it - After the ideas from a guy called Henry & Mazdawg & Me making the thing to see what happens. 1x SPLd S-1200d (1200wrms @ 1ohm) 2x Brand n…

Got a new vehicle, so its time to upgrade the sound system. Vechicle is a BMW 750i. The stock Logic7 system sounds better than I excpected, but the "subwoofers" under the front seats seem to be more like mid-woofers. I listen to mostly rap and R&B. I was thinking a single 12 or a couple of 10's sealed, but I'm open to suggestions. I'm also not brand biased....I'm just looking to get away from mainstream subs. I'm not building an SQ system or anthing, but I want a balanced sounding system. My goals: 1. Add some low end punch to complement the mids and highs without overpowering them. 2. Maintain some usable trunk space 3. Not destroy my car....(last system …

Haven't been around in awhile just though i would throw my new vid up and let yall check it out. Its the same system but i got a yellow top up front now. Im getting a HD video camera for christmas so ill have better ones up soon. Systems in the sig.

Does anyone have a list of good manufacturers that produce an XBL^2 driver? Specifically looking for Subwoofers, but mids and midbasses interest me too. I've found one manu, but I can't find them again. Their prices were good, but I wonder about quality. Thanks

So i received my xcon just now... and i was checking it over and there are no mounting holes in the surround.. do i just drill out where the hole is in the frame? ( there are mounting holes in the basket and the gasket just not where the surround is)

OK folks. I am getting ready to drop a sizeable order with my freinds at Powerbass, but am wondering if anyone that has used the XS subs, & swapped to the XXXL subs, what they thought of the change. I have a customer that I did 2 XS15's, & wants to try the XXXL's, & I don't want him to spend the $$ & not get as much outta them....so let me know what y'all think....please no lip service, if they are better great, if not please be honest...as we are talking about $800 of this guys money (I would be selling him the XXXL for $400 each)

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

No, you did not read that incorrectly... it says 302. Today I built the final incarnation of the SI 302 crossover, Nick and I are both very happy with the result. The set uses a 7" poly-cone midrange driver (5 7/8" cut-out) and a textile dome tweeter. Some key features: - Designed for OFF-AXIS mid installation (door install) - Extremely strong midbass (50 - 63Hz X-over is no problem at all) - High power handling for an entry level set, rating pending * They are taking ALOT more abuse than my old XR set... I destroyed an XR mid in my car. Crossovers: 15-gauge inductors (massive) Low Tolerance Audio-Grade Resistors in Attenuation network Hand-picked combination of Metal Fil…

what up every1. im new to the forums and dont really know much about car audio so i need some help. i have a 2004 ford explorer and it has the folding 3rd row and saw a video on youtube and this guy had 2 Fi BTL 18s and hifonics XX-Goliath in the same vehicle so i know 18s will fit but im not sure if thats what i want. i want something that hits VERY hard and CLEAR its nothing i hate more than people with systems that just sound like horrible loud noise. i want to be able to hear the lyrics and the highs and still have hard clear bass. so i need a lot of suggestions cause im itching to buy a system but dont know where to start. (please include what watt amp, wiring, who…

I have a 2003 dodge ram im looking to put a setup in under the back seat. I will be building a fiberglass sealed box conformed to the underseat area shape. It will net me a minimum of 1.75ft3. Im just looking for hard hitting bass, no top of the line setup. Budget for the subs is around $300+-, i would imagine 2 10's would probably be my best route? I just went around to all the shops here in town for different opinions. I know Kicker is normally frowned upon, but a few places suggested the new Comp R 10's and a cx1200.1. I cant seem to find much info on the new subs, i was told these new subs are from a better sound engineer kicker hired recently but it could be BS for a…

this is my first real post, so here goes... i am saving money for my 1st system and im lookin to do it right the 1st time ive looked at rf,re, and anything in between and now my intereststs have landed on the 12" magnum d2 i am currently workin on a custom center consol in my 2002 s10 REG CAB, so my options are limited now for the questions: 1. what kind of volume/tuning would be good for like a 60/40 or 70/30 spl/sq setup? 2.what amp would match up with that setup nicely? 3. yall are gonna hate me for this one but....how does it compare to a 12w7 in the same box/amp setup? i understand this is alot for one post but im a complete newb to the magnums, so any info/suggestio…

Hey Guys, I've spent an hour or so on the Forum looking for specific on optimum wiring for my single GCON 12" I've have two amps here at the house: Diamond Audio D600.1 Mono block 275W x 1 @ 4-Ohms450W x 1 @ 2-Ohms600W x 1 @ 1-Ohm OR Boston Acoustics GTA-500M Channels Mono Bridgeable Not Bridgable RMS Power at 2 Ohms 500 W x 1 RMS Power at 4 Ohms 300 W x 1 1. Which one would you use and how would you wire it? It's going in a sealed 1.4 cu ft box, I'm more about clean and crisp.... Can a Jedi kick down some layman's terms??? So very appreciated.

Hi I'm relatively new too the car audio world and I have been patrolling this forum for some time now trying too gain more knowledge. Basically I'm stuck trying too decide on what subwoofer I'm going too choose based off space in my car. It's A 2008 Scion Xb I Wanna Keep The Rear Seats Dimensions Are 38x38x16 Im Not Bias On Any Brands And Open Too Any Sizes Just Wanna Get As Loud As Possible And As Low As Possible. I Already Have Mechman Alt Installed 0 Gauge Ran Big 3 Done And Yellow Top Under The Hood And A Hifonics BRZ2400. Budget Is About $1,000 For Subs. Thanks For The Help

so im hoping this is the dumbest question i ever ask on here, but if i was to get a set of component speakers would i need to use a new amp or what ive always been confused by components please help

What is the difference. Everybody is writing about it. I have a pair of Focal 165 vrs and a pair of 130cvx's in stock locations running with a sax 100.4 so what would be the difference between active and passive. I haven't gotten them installed yet but next week they will be so.

A lot of you have already seen this, but I am posting it for those who haven't. This is my newly completed SQ project........ and maybe a little SPL on the side. Enclosure is 3.247 cubic feet tuned to 41 hz for burps and a port plug for 33 hz. Videos can be found here: http://forums.caraudio.com/vb/showthread.php?t=59449

what would the value of a newly reconed DD 3500 18 be? brand new basket, direct connect leads, beefed up to take 2500 +

How should i build a box. Car is 03 crown vic. Subs up port back. subs up port up. subs back port back.

Well i bit the bullet and im buying used CD player. Eclipse 3400. while insalling my IS2080 i found my surounds on my RE mids where comming unglued and the coens where dry rotting. IE poor build quality though they sound great. one of the cones has actually begun to split with the extra power. So im going to have to get new mids, im planning on eventualyl going active so i'd like a good pair of 6.5's that have strong midbass, around 100w RMS or less, work well IB or sealed, and would integrate with me RE tweeters and overs for the time being.

Ok, since the FI BL pretty much won the comparison against the maw-15's and the Q (Only because of my application) And since Im pretty sure thats what I am getting I have put it up against stiffer Competition. Now I am only Getting One 15 BL as of right now. But Against the AA Havoc how does it Compare. Its Around same price range. Whatcha Got for me, Thanks in advance.
