Does lining the inside of your box with sound deadening do anything for the sound quality or loudness of your subs? Thanks

Haha. The sound quality might be bad, but being able to carry around your entire music collection in such a small package with a great interface is amazing. Anyone else with a definitive answer? You made a good point Jman. It's not using an aux cable, but a direct connection through the dock...

I assume by direct connection you're referring to adding a hard drive to my system. And the x200 doesn't play cd's. I don't even use cd's anymore

Hi. I'm currently using an Alpine x200 head unit with built in iPod compatibility. I'm using a 3rd generation iPod Nano and after reading http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPod I've discovered that the unit has a weak bass response. "The third generation iPod had a weak bass response, as shown in...

Thanks for all the help so far. The Re's look good, but they seem to be hard to get ahold of. So it seems like 12inch Type R's are going to give me great mid bass for rap/techno/alternative music. I'm thinking about powering them with...

Does anyone at least have any info on the Polks?

Hola. First of all, thanks for taking the time to read this thread and even more thanks go out to the people that reply, intelligently mind you. Ok, so I'm new to car audio. I'm looking to get two subs installed in a sealed box for a precise type of mid bass. I'm looking more for sound...

Thanks for all of the replys. Yea I know buying from Best Buy isn't the best move, but the warranty is great. If I buy equipment off the net and have it installed at a local shop they've pretty much said if they install wrong of if something break I'm sol. Thanks for the reply Kassidy. I'll...

Thanks for the link to the amp. I assume the Rockford will pound harder than two Alpines? Also, what's the dumbed down definition of ohms, bridged, and continuous power? Thw type R's are 4 ohms, but you said I should play them at one ohm. And it seems like the...

Yea, the equipment would be from Best Buy. I'll definately get the exact details on the warranty. 20 bucks per sub for 4 years does a sound a little good to be true. I believe the rep said as long as I didn't take a hammer to the equipment it's covered.

Hello. First of all I'd like to thank you for reading this post and hopefully replying. I'm new to car audio, I'm more of a computer geek, and I want to add some bass to my car. I'm considering buying retail for the added warranty and piece of mind. Yea, I found out that retail shops mark up...

It would be 450 for two type r's with a comprehensive 4 year warranty which I guess I could get for $200 wholesale. Yea, the mark up is 100%, but it comes with a lot of piece of mind. Yea it wounds bad and overpriced, but I'm going for reliability. So I assume that the one rocksford trumps...

I believe they have dual 4 ohm voice coils. I want to buy online, but buying retail has the benefit of a 4 year warranty while buying online usually has a year warranty max. Retail markup is insane, but I figure if I bought the amps or subs online, and blew them and had to replace them, it...

Hi guys. I've been looking for a nice amp to power two 10 inch type R's. Should I go with 1 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8265548&type=product&id=1170289779572 or 2 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8696351&type=product&id=1198888991131 I've done...
