How would 2x15" sealed compare to a single 12" ported.
SS Teacher replied to b34tBoX's topic in General Audio
What didn't you like about the BTL? -
Are you married to that company? There has got to be someone out there with the "perfect" match.

I went to their website, the burlwood honey looks closer to your dash.
-
The dark burl pattern matches better, but is it a little too red?
-
r these amps over rated?????
SS Teacher replied to tbear55's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Their website also says "Music so powerful it makes the dead come to life!" I think that claim is just as accurate as 3000 watts RMS. BUT the led skull eyes light up, so they must be good. If only they had more crome... -
Have good one! Maybe a cold one...

High end Rockford amps are great, their entry level stuff not as much. Boston Acoustics left the mobile market, that's why you can get those really good amps dirt cheap, I'd get one of those with the GCON.
-
With a total budget of $600 you should focus on a single sub. Are you going to do the install yourself? Do you plan on using your factory speakers for mids and highs?

which amp would u choose?????
SS Teacher replied to tbear55's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Of those 2, I'd buy the cheaper one, from the SSA store. -
sundown e10s or incriminator audio i series 10"
SS Teacher replied to prince_85's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
If you got to the Incriminator section on this forum its in one of the pinned threads that says "recommended box sizes", if you read, it will tell you that the I series is the same as one of the others. I don't remember which one, so just read the threads yourself. -
Need to put power to GCON
SS Teacher replied to handman84's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Sonic Electronix has a Boston Acoustics GT-2125- 600 RMS at 2 ohms for $125 or the GT-2200- 900 RMS at 2ohms for $189. They're not 1 ohm stable so if a 2nd sub is in your future these aren't for you, but these are great amps for the price. -
Your timing sucks, I just bought a GT 275 for that price last month. Oh wait, my timing sucks. Damn it! Good luck with the sale.

Responses that come from M5 and Impious are exactly why I (and many others) joined this forum. I don't want people who own the brand to tell me to buy it because they like it. If I wanted that I'd read and trust product reviews from Sonic Electronix and Crutchfield.

Maxxsonics owns hifonics, autotek, boston acoustic and mb quart amps
SS Teacher replied to oakteg21's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Boston Acoustics amps were made in Italy than switched to Malaysia, not China. Unfortunately, Boston has left the mobile market and that is why you can get their amps so cheap. -
Putting more power than RMS to a sub is usually not a good idea. Why do you want to give it more? It probably won't be any louder and you risk thermal and mechanical stress that could lead to early driver failure. Some of the more experienced car audio guys frequently run more than rated for a variety of reasons, but I just don't see any advantage for the average user.

to keep oem head unit or not?
SS Teacher replied to Meducky's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
For a lot of the same reasons you listed I kept my factory radio and am mostly satisfied. My processing is way less involved than your Audison unit so it should sound really good for you. -
singer alt. anyone with these alts. please give me your input
SS Teacher replied to oakteg21's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
If you're only running 1500 watts, do the big 3 first and you might be good. If not upgrade your stock battery, start a new post if needed. Then if you're having issues add a 2nd battery in the back, again, start a new post. Good luck and thanks for listening. -

SS Teacher replied to oakteg21's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
If you're on a budget, do the big 3, a battery in the back and see how it goes. You probably don't need a new alt, you could save a bit of money. -

SS Teacher replied to oakteg21's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
A stock 140 amp alternator is pretty good, are you planning on running over 1500 watts RMS? Did you get the big 3 done yet? Do you have an extra battery? -
best amp for the money to power a single 12" SSA Dcon single 4ohm?
SS Teacher replied to oakteg21's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Why do you want to feed your sub double the RMS power? -
best amp for the money to power a single 12" SSA Dcon single 4ohm?
SS Teacher replied to oakteg21's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
I'm very happy with my Boston amps. -
Yep, it's an A404 I bought for $550 back in 1995 or 96. I thought about running it, but I don't have the plugs, and it has no cross-overs.

what do i need to upgrade?
SS Teacher replied to 1two3's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
didnt know that. so then what would adding a second sub do? move more air and therefor make everything shake more? Adding a second sub will get you a 3 db gain. That is an audible difference, but sound is kinda funny. Think of it this way... you're in a dark room and turn on a 40 watt lamp- lots of light in the room. If you turn on another 40 watt lamp it does get brighter, but only a little bit more. It sounds a little depressing, but 3 db isn't that bad of an increase, just an expensive one.
