    Regular Cab Ford Ranger sub options.

    So I have a reg cab Ranger, I put some 6.5"s with tweeters up front, got a Picasso Nano 4ch amp to power those in bridged mode. I also got a ED e9kv2 8" sub in the back behind my seat in a small 0.6cuft enclosure. The sub is loud enough on some songs, but doesnt get nearly as low as I would...

    Midbass + Tweeter, or Full range + tweeter?

    So I have some tweeters setup in my truck doors with my fullrange speakers. They dont get super loud, and I feel like I am missing some midbass. The sub I have is an ED9kv, seeing about 160W. My speakers are here: Goldwood GW-205/4S 5-1/4" Shielded Poly Woofer 4 Ohm I have the "cheap"...

    Dayton Audio mids and tweeters

    The QTS on the DCB130 5.25 is at 0.34, If I were to pop these into my trucks door with no "box" how you think they would work? Looking to replace the full range speakers I got with more of a midbass, but the low QTS has me worried.

    Eq installed and little to no sound from amped speakers.

    Interesting. So how would I be able to get an aux plug in there without the eq? Is there a loc with speaker lever inputs and a RCA level input that I can use with my 3.5 to RCA adapter?

    Eq installed and little to no sound from amped speakers.

    I'm not opposed to that, problem is right now if I took it out, I would have to use 2 loc's to hook up my amp. I really wanted to avoid a aftermarket headunit.

    Eq installed and little to no sound from amped speakers.

    Bypassing as in just using the loc RCA signal directly to the amp?

    Eq installed and little to no sound from amped speakers.

    Yes, I played with the knob. Turned it all the way up, also turned the gains up on the amp as well Also turned volume on MP3 player all the way up, pretty confused. Only thing I can think of is that the sub outputs from the eq not sending enough volts? Really have no idea.

    Eq installed and little to no sound from amped speakers.

    Got around to installing my planet audio peq10 today and ran the wires through the truck to complete install. I got everything hooked up, peq10 and amp started up, however there is very little sound. And when using the aux to my iPod or sansa clip, there is almost 0 sound. Setup: Ppi 4 ohm...

    5.25 Midranges Speakers

    Not looking for ultra high end. In fact, looking for mid level upgrade from factory speakers. These will be amped getting ~30-40W per channel. Need them to be the actual drivers only, no tweeters/2 or 3 ways. I have tweeters. Must be 4 or 8 ohm. Prefer 4ohm. If you have a pair that is not...

    SMALL amp wanted: 60-100W X 2 @ 2ohm load.

    Looking for a small footprint amp to power speakers (6.5's and tweeters). Looking to get a 2 channel to save costs/space, unless you have a small 4channel that does 30-50W X 4 @ 4ohms. 2 channel would have to be able to do 60-100W X 2 @ 2ohms. Let me know what you have. Thanks

    Using EQ as headunit for now, some info on how to run it.

    Sorry for quick reply, but further research suggests that using the EQ on a 2 channel amp for my mids and highs seems that I will not be able to use the EQ to seperate between then mids and highs- they would be ran off the same RCA's from EQ to amp... Correct? So perhaps I wont use the PX2.200...

    Using EQ as headunit for now, some info on how to run it.

    So for the moment I will be running an EQ as a headunit. This is just temporary until I can get funds for a nicer headunit. Now, my friend has 2 EQ's he will let me borrow until I get the headunit- Planet Audio PEQ10, or a Soundstream MPQ4US. I'd like to try the SS, but either one really will...

    How well is the RE box designer?

    I planned a box for my 8" sub for behind my single cab truck seat. I am using the RE box design and was wondering how well it works. I want a ported box tuned to ~45, but need the box to be VERY small. Here are the specs I used to design it, and was wondering if it is accurate as it does not...

    Stock "looking" plain double DIN H/U

    So I dont live in a great area, and my last car (Sentra) got broken into twice to steal some car audio equipment. I certainly want to put a discrete system in my new auto- Ford Ranger regular cab. Now, I have been looking at options. It looks like the Cleansweep is a possibility, but I dont...

    Anyone can build me a custom ported box for ED 9kv in Regular Cab Ranger?

    Hey everyone! I need a box, preferably ported to ~35-40hz for a 9kv 8" sub. The restraints are that it must be able to fit behind my regular cab seat, and also has a 1in. overhang to protect the sub face while playing. The specs I had drawn up were 16W x 10H x 6D, I figured 0.5in Birch would...
