2000 Sentra Install Finished! :D
mmm thanks for the positive feedback guys! Fonzi fo sho those boxes are .8 they are skinny and tall. denim that would be cool man. but too bad manuals are only in europe and those of you who are interested in the Usamps IS line, go to the local dealer to take a look at these babies in person. Awesome

Ported for 12" Rlp
ooo cool! okay 2 mo questions and then i basically understand! sorry 1. using something like this: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=268-352 is like sticking it into a sealed box making it ported rite? 2. what is the optimal distance (inside the box) does there need to be between the port opening and a surface?? cuz the box i have rite now is 15.5" and i think im gonna have to use 2 ports cuz i don have enough room. Can i use 2 ports next to each other so it will split the length in half making it 2 7" long ports? THanks soo much!

2000 Sentra Install Finished! :D
today i have finally finnished installing my friends budget system. consists of: - 2 10" IDQ v2 in .8 ish each sealed - Kicker 6.5" ks's - And..... The USamps IS 4085 4 channel amp :yumyum: - and a mix of ebay and Johnecon2001's wires (great person buy from him now!) All going into a 2000 Sentra Posted Fri Jul 08, 2005 2:19 am: - Okay, first off the speakers: I was kinda iffy on how these things would perform. But kicker, i know makes awesome stuff, and was the cheapest "good" 6.5" speaker i could find. Here is the left one with one of my ghetto jigsawed baffles and the right: First impression, for 60 bucks, these speakers ROCK! although the highs are a lil harsh (titanium tweet) but they were as clear as a hawaiian ocean shore. Posted Fri Jul 08, 2005 2:20 am: - Next off The Subs: 10" IDQ V2 x2 From hearing around these forums that ID has some of THE best SQ subs around, i wanted to find out for myself how good these really sound. Well IMO these subs DO have the best SQ from any sub ive heard (well except the Kappa VQ which costed a whole lot more). Words cannot describe how amazing these subs really are in small sealed enclosure. As for loudness, well, they get almost as loud as my 112" ported LI . However it shook the whole freakin car!! i can only imagine a medium sized ported box for these :yumyum:. For 75 bucks each... speechless Posted Fri Jul 08, 2005 2:21 am: - Next The amp: USamps IS 4085 I dun care what pple think... This amp is SEXY!!! umm letsee hehe where do i start? this amp just blows my mind, period. No partiality, NONE! this amp is AMAZING!! the day before i hooked up the 2 same idq's to my viper 1200.1 (keep in mind a class D mono) and fed them a good 300w each @ 2 ohms (the review i posted last night) the sq was good, and it got loudish. today, i hooked the idq's to the USamps IS 4085 (a 4 channel class A/B). This thing is rated at 135w x 4 @ 2 ohms. I have to get this thing benched cuz Absolutely NO freakin way this only pushes 135/channel. I do not understand WHY or HOW. The subs were louder. not just a little louder.... EXREMELY LOUDER. like almost hurt my ears louder. and the clarity of the bass coming out of the subs was phenominal. iz like the sq raised 3 notches. I dunno how or why... it just is. For the lowest line in the USamps lineup and to think the same amp is also pushing a pair of coaxes, its amazing... i cannot wait to try the merlin and the AX. Posted Fri Jul 08, 2005 2:21 am: okay enough reviews here is a completed pic: and a pic of his vs. mine my setup was louder, but his sounded SOO much better. All in all for my 2nd install... it was a SUCCESS (except for that stupid tweeter whine that showed up 30 minutes later)! I want his setup so bad now. hehe

check out my plans: i decided to go round port cuz one, its soo much easier to calculate and make, and 2 its easier to fire it into my cabin (the port will be positioned right underneath my first aid kit space). the reason why the sub cutout is so high, is cuz i wanna make a false floor for the amps, and this way my sub box wont tip over ~2.0 tuned to 31 will be okay rite? i need opinions

Noise coming from the speakers
this is really wierd. umm after i hooked up my friends speakers. when it was at my house, there was no noise at all. but now my friend calls me when he gets home, and he hears this high pitch whistling noise comin from the speakers, but its only at low volumes. When he turns the volume high, the noise goes away and everything is fine. I'm guessing a ground problem, but there is no noise from the subs and why did it appear when my friend get home?
