thanks phypho, i understand that whole imaging thing now. These speakers actually have a very good amount of bass when mounted in the rear dashboard/deck/whatever. But none to speak of in the front, which is why i was confused. The HU i have sucks which im gonna upgrade soon, and i may get a...

actually i dont know the diff between stereo and mono. i dont know that much about car audio shit right now either. But i try. Itd be nice if youd help though instead of posting smartass remarks jman was it a bad idea to mount them in the center console? ( its actually in the center of the...

Measure the back of the speaker and figure out the cutout size and cut a hole. If it doesnt fit sand it out till it does. thats what i do. To get your screw placement correct what i do is put 4 screws (or however many used for mounting) in the screw holes (not on the baffle, on the place where...

I just replaced the front speakers in my catalina with some quantum 5.25 comps, i made mdf baffles for them so they mount perfectly to the dash, and are sealed around the mdf with silicone, i have the tweeters in the center console pointing outwards. I also put egg carton foam behind the...

Im debating on which set of speakers to choose from for the ones going in my rear deck. heres my choices, hoping some of you guys that know more than me can offer advice on which is better. Im leaning toward the phoenix golds because theyre a known brand and are obviously decent speakers, but...

Ive got 2 maw 15 subs and need to build a box for them in a trunk car. Ive never built a box so i dont know what dimensions would need to be and all that. The company reccomends 3^ft ported tuned to 30 hz. How would 8^ft ported tuned to 30 hz for 2 of them be? Id like better lows on songs like...

Whats the main difference between foam and rubber surrounds? Ive noticed alot of the cheaper subs have foam surrounds. Just wondering the main difference between the 2 types of surrounds

For a 1 sub setup ported in a small trunk car, what would you guys go with?

You think the hifonics amp would push these subs pretty good? It seems better to me than the 2 CVs i had, actually traded them for these 2 FIs and 200$. Thinking about going with 2 hifonics amps instead of the one im running though. Ive got a custom box about 4 cubes tuned to 35hz built with 2...

Random, but I was in circuit city earlier today and decided to browse around the car audio section, I saw some dude buy a prefab box with 2 kicker L5 10"s for 700$, he couldve probably gotten 2 FI 18s for that much, lol Whats the markup there, like 300% ?

Who cares about what the ******s argue about and if they sell drugs and all that? The bass is what most people listen to on this forum, not what theyre talking about. Hardly any new school "rap" is any good. Personally, i could care less if paul wall sells more grills than george foreman, or if...

hmm, well i guess if watts doesnt mean that much, i could just set it up in a nice box, and give it the 15rms off my head unit and be just as loud as i would with 1600rms going to it from my hifonics? Sorry for being a smartass, and maybe im wrong, but 300rms just doesnt seem like much. It...

im pretty sure theres some computer geek managing all these accounts (morningwood, the wiggler dude, the one with the pic of my girl) and just using diff IPs or comps to login. Im a geek as well so yea, im pretty sure thats whats going on. I think someone has an extremely small penis. Alot of...

http://www.acoustic-visions.com/~acoustic/products/subwoofer_drivers/tempestx/ Found this sub, what do you guys think? 27mm of excursion for under 200$ Thats badass. I dont know what pmax means, but apparently its 600w max? 300rms isnt shit so that seems like the only bad thing.

Actually, Ecstasy does that.
