hey I need help seeing will the SAZ-2500d be over kill for my Kicker Solo X 12 its dual 2 ohm wired down to 1 ohm or will it be okay so someone help me please write me on here or email me at [email protected]

A while back I bought a cheap budget system used off one of my buddies friends for $150 bucks. It was an 12" Orion sub, Alpine amp, and a Obcon box. Sounds pretty good and hit fairly hard. So when I bought it, the seller stated it was a 200 watt rms sub running off the amp @ 2 ohms which produces 300 watts rms. He didn't know the model of the sub just the specs the local audio shop told him when he bought the package. Well I am in the process of installing 2 ssd 12" and a 1600 watt amp. So for fun while I am waiting to finish the box I decided to pull the sub from the temp setup just to laugh at the tiny magnet it should have. Based off what he told me and the dust cap I …

A fucked BL!!! How should i go about this? Ive never had to deal with broken shit with usps before

trying to figure out what went wrong with my brother sub. box is 3.85 cubes net turned to 30 hz. (2 4" diameter pvc pipes... yes i know that not enough port area.. was suppose to be a temp box). amp is a kole qx1 3000d wired at 2 ohm but turned way down.. i was planning to redo the box and everything. i measured voltage to be 17v at amp terminals with a 55hz test tone recorded at -3 db. you can do the math on that if you like but its not much power at all.. its in a mercury sable with stock system. installed ----------> stock head unit - stock amp - mtx req - amp (i told him to not turn the headunit volume past half as it starts to clip and distort) current condition i…

Hey guys im kinda new to the audio world and i am disappointed in the system i got now (two 12's 600rms each) so im looking for somthing a little bigger, I got two Kenwood KAC-9105D amps, i was wondering if i could strap them together for the 1800 rms roughly and get the 15" SSA XCON D2 (1750rms) if the wiring capabilities were there and if not anyother options that would hit n use the amps well -Thanks

At first I was thinking of getting 2 sets of Alpine SRP-13S but i decided i didn't want to cut holes more holes in my doors, so now i only want one set of components and I'm looking to spend around $350 max? I looked at Focals but they are out of my price range. So any other good sets? I'm looking for Very good sound quality but speakers that will still get loud so I can hear the over my 2 1250watt Subs, Any suggestions?

How about a little history lesson on Blues? How did they start? Who was involved? What happened to the line when SoundQuest (Way before AAMP/Stinger) bought them out? When they decided to bring the Blues lineup back? I am very interested as I always liked the brand when I was a kid back in the 90's. P.S. Let's get Ray on here to spill the beans on Blues and Linear Power.

I am goin to be buying either 12" or 15" speakers, i dont really know what to buy, do you recomend goin for 1 18" or 2 12s or even 2 15s? Money is a lil tight, but ive been trying to get a second one. I also need to know about a amp and a box so i know what i need to get and save (money wise). I was thinking for a amp, either a Soundstream or a Rockford Fosgate. If you think there is a better, cheaper and produces more power please let me know. My budget for speakers is about 800-850, then for a amp 500-700. For 2 12" BTL i think its 728 if im not mistaken. Hope you can help, il be loggin ALL of my work, IM A BEGINNER TOO!! il also be doing the BIG3 and the car i own is a…

I have 2 kicker l715 inch subs in a sealed box,is there anyway i can tell if they are 4 ohm or 2 ohm? Just wanna get the right amp...

Just wanted to say hey guys, long time to talk to. Been super busy and that first vid I posted was a pos, second coming soon! Ok now on topic -- When I first got my system running I noticed there was a smell to it. Not a bad smell but just something strange; best I can describe it is the smell of a fresh built, just turned on computer. The reason why I relate it to this is because I just re-built my computer today and notiecd this is how it smells. I have never smelled burning nor have I ever heard the woofer "bottom out". The excursion looks alright to my knowledge for the lowest song I have put at it. I do like to ride around though with the volume up pretty high, somet…

Don't hate the BOSS... gf wanted a small system, I'm building her one lol. Regardless, I can't find much info on the sub besides what's listed on the main site and sonicelectronix. BOSS AUDIO SYSTEMS | ENTERTAIN YOURSELF and Boss CX8 - 8" Subwoofers - Sonic Electronix Sub will be powered by only 70wrms at 4 ohm. so question is: what tuning should I do the enclosure for the sub? anyone have any ideas on port length? also airspace recommendations on an 8? She listens to gaga/la roux and ke$ha a lot. I'm honestly not that experienced doing my own enclosures and would prefer help of the forum over me trying to do it myself haha. just an fyi, I am always open to free enclos…

im wanting to step my subwoofer game up to 2 nightshade 15's. currently i have 4 rockford fosgate p3 12's in a ported box tuned to 37-38hz powered by a sundown 3500. i have 2 interstate batterys in the back and an optima red top up front, 200 amp alt, big 3 in 0 awg, 1 run of + and - 0 awg to the back. all this is in a 4 door chevy blazer. right now my 12's are doing 147.2 at 46hz and they stay in the high 146's on music. my main question is if i upgrade to 2 nightshade 15's and put them in a 6.5 cuft box ported to 32-34hz, will there be an audible difference in sound? my good buddy brought up this point to me. i just want to be sure itll be louder before i go spend 1000 …

here the diagram from the12volt... heres what i want to do... will the second one work and put me at 1ohm?

Hey guys, I just bought Kenwood subs (Kenwood Kac-9105d and 2 kfc-w3012 subs) from www.CarAudioGiants.com and want to get feedback regarding Kenwood subs. Does anyone have any? If so, how long have they lasted you? Thanks.

when i mean best i mean loudest/hardest hitting, i dont care about the price Boss P126DVC Phantom 12" Car Subwoofer/Sub Kicker 08S12L54 - 12" Subwoofers - Sonic Electronix Alpine SWR-1223D 12" Type-R Car Subwoofer/Sub (SWR1223D) MTX TR5512-04 (tr551204) - 12" Subwoofers - Sonic Electronix and what is a good amp for whatever one you think is the best? thanks.

Currently have the PG RSD's Been happy with them since day one especially being that I paid 50$ for them new. However, a tweeter blew awhile ago and I replaced it with an Infinity Ref series I had laying around. To say the least, its half asssed. I want to upgrade to something really good, my budget being about $200-$215 Ive heard good things about the DLS. Opinions or comments welcome. Using a Alpine Digital Mrv F345 rated @ 75w RMS and my doors are deadened in my 2001 Maxima GLE THANKS

I was just doing more research on boxes and whatnot and came across Heath and his . Anyway, what is up with his dustcap? Is that what it looks like before / after you blow it off? I know that's a prototype and its not officially released "yet".

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

hey everyone, I was wondering if its possible to change the positive & negative terminals on a sub? I have JBL GT5s I'm using but it seems the terminals on the subs are very flimsy. Is there any way to change them to something a little more heavy duty or easier and more steardy to use? If so, can someone point me in the right direction on how to go about changing them? Thanks! Andrew

I'm looking to upgrade my stock system, just something simple this time. I'm keeping the factory HU, which has pretty good output, and I have a JL 300/4 that will match (needed balanced differential inputs on the amp to match the factory HU). Now, I'm thinking about the speakers. I want to do components in the front, and ignore everything in the back for now. I'll run the setup active using all 4 channels from the 300/4. The car is an 06 Acura TSX, and I'll keep the components in the stock location, which means up to 6.5" woofers in the doors, and tweets on the dash (stock fires into windshield). At this point, all I need to figure out is the speakers. I want to ke…

1 Kicker 08S12L54 - 12" Subwoofers - Sonic Electronix Sony XM-ZZR3301 (xmzzr3301) - Monoblock Car Amplifier, Power Amp - Sonic Electronix Earthquake Sound AK-5000 (ak5000) - 4 Gauge Amp Kits - Sonic Electronix

so im about 97% set on getting 2 audioque hdc3 15s and seen there was an option for copper coils and one for aluminum coils. what is the difference in them performance wise?

I've got a few minutes of down time and decided to upload a few photos I have of cars (and a boat) that have our subs in use. I need to get pictures of the rest of the emailed to me, but I thought you guys might enjoy seeing a few photos. First up is a car that belongs to a guy named Kyle. He seems to be pretty happy. He has some kind of amp that I've never heard of, XXX or something like that. It's basically pushing no power to it. When he upgrades we'll try to get some meter results on it. It sounds good, but it's got a lot of room to improve with more power going to it.

hey guys need some advice here am look for 2 12 that will be playin off a 2000 bxi hifoinc. in my price range am loolin at a pair of DCON 12D4 or a pair of IA 187 12d4 which one would be a better buy????thanks

I'm interested in adding a pair of 6.5" midbass drivers to my kick panels. The 4x6's aren't cutting it in the midbass section. I like the mach 5 mli65's and Dayton DC160S's. I'm up to suggestions other than these two drivers. Any suggestions?
