    Peerless hds or sls? Or other 6.5" to 7" midbass

    I need some suggestions for a dedicated midbass for my 3 way front stage. I'm looking primarily at raw drivers since I have the mini dsp 6x8. Looking at the peerless sls or hds as first options any thoughts on which to go with? I'm open to other suggestions as well. Any help is appreciated...

    $75 budget. Anything better than CDT refurbished?

    Look at the ppi 900.4 amp. It's tried and proven as an excellent vaule and is a reliable workhorse. For comps Look at the Pioneer d series. If you can stretch your budget just a tad bit the jbl p660 is an excellent value. Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk

    6.5 component around $150

    The jbl p660c is the best bang for the buck. It far out performs its price. If you get the upgrade bug after the jbl try pairing it up with the vifa xt25 ring radiator tweeters. It's an excellent combo. Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk

    Help with speaker selection!!

    Your budget is plenty to get the job done for speakers. Skip they rear speakers and focus on the front. With the 3700 you can run active from the head unit so you can build your own setup. I'd run raw drivers and control everything from the amp. The nvx x series xsp6act is a great choice. I...

    Need help wiring components to 4 channel amp

    As far as gains go, you should say them with an oscilloscope or dd1 that way they'll be perfect vs "turning them down." if you don't have one, at the very least you should set the gains with a dmm. This method isn't 100% accurate, but it'll get you in the ball park. Where you able to get the...

    Need help wiring components to 4 channel amp

    I have a similar setup to you, with the dsp88r and 900.4 are you using a stock headunit? Did you connect the radio to the dsp via aux or through the harness rca's (cd input)? Did you connect your sub into h and g? Sent from my D6616 using Tapatalk

    Ears Hurt. Please Help

    Where are your tweeters mounted? Are they on axis or off axis? By harsh are you getting a nasty "sss" sound in the vocals or does it just sound tinny? Sent from my D6616 using Tapatalk

    speaker help

    Your options are limited. I would suggest the door or kick pods be built.

    What is a good HPF for Hertz HSK 165 set?

    I got a set of Hertz HSK 165. They play well at 63hz, but Im afraid of blowing them. Is it better to be safe and cross at 80hz? I like to jamm with them loud, and I picked them up on craigslist so there is no warranty if I blow them. My amp gain is set with an Multimeter, so I should be good on...
