    Road noise

    Spend the money on good cld. Knukonceptz kollosus is a good value to performance. 25% coverage is typical. Then use a ccf, raamaudio.com peel and stick ensolite is great and not too expensive. Then use mlv, 1lb per Sq ft from tmsoundproofing.com will save you some money there. The mlv will do...

    Hybird Audio or Dynaudio 8" midbass?

    I would keep the 300.4 and bridge it to the mw172. They like power. Unless you had a pair of the 900.6 to bridge the rear channels on both.

    WTB: DD X1 crossover

    Looking to buy asap, X1 or X1.1, preferably the x1 which has the gold rcas. Both are engraved identically. Only difference is the rca color, knob color, and the sticker on the bottom. Will pay extra for the gold version.

    high end amp. does it really matter... 2ch/4ch

    I think you'd get more for your money by upgrading your speakers before your amp. High end amps only shine when they have quality speakers to work with.

    Convert M4A to WAV or MP3 ???

    Dbpoweramp. Best there is. Converting to wav takes up the most room. I prefer ALAC (m4a lossless) to use less space, aiff for archiving. Mp3 blows imho. Unless it's 320 cbr. And that's only for portable use. But I have 500gb iPods for carry around, and 1tb ssd in my vehicle connected to a car...

    Alpine CDE-HD149BT Resetting?

    You can store your eq and time correction settings. Once set, hold 1-6 till it asks if you want to protect it.

    CDT audio

    Better to have more on tap and farther away from the Max the amp can do than to over power and never get close to the amps 100% threshold. Also those Cdt's will perform much better on more than 150 per side after the crossovers rib him of power

    Electrical for M4a

    I run black Cherries in 2 setups. They hold a higher resting voltage than my xs did. The difference in the black cherry and banana is capacitance. Basically it's the difference that an xs d3100 is to the xp3000. Same size and voltage but the d3100 and banana will or perform the black cherry and...

    Electrical for M4a

    You'll get better performance from a better battery. XS isn't the brand to judge all others by. Yea they're good, but you can find as good for less. Northstar makes a beast, odyssey pc2150, JuiceBox banana is equal to those 3, another great alternative is the JuiceBox black cherry that can be...

    CDT audio

    I disagree. I ran the hd-51 5.25" set active on 200 for the mids and 100 for the tweets. You're meaning to only out 150 to each set off 3, plus the crossover would eat up a percentage of that as well. To really bring those to life, bridge the pdx to the fonts and get something else for the rear...
