    Buy from EBAY?

    Is EBAY a reliable place to buy stuff from? Because it looks like it's about 60%-75% cheaper than what I can get the products for at the local shops. Thanks

    JBL bp1200.1 vs. RF bd1000.1 vs. PG QX 500.1

    Which is the best of these or is there another amp that's better that costs about the same? I want it to be really loud, but I would rather have it clear. Thanks.

    one box or four? (or two?)

    I have four 10's. Should I put them all in the same box, each in their own box, or two in each box? What are the pros and cons of each? Thanks.

    Figuring out the Resistance

    I have an amp that's bridgeable at 4 ohms. Can I hook up 4 subs to these 2 bridged channels and have them run at 4 ohms? Does it work like this: Run the + of the amp to the + of #1 sub, run the - of the #1 sub to the + of the #2 sub, run the - of the #2 sub to the - of the amp. Then do the...

    Air Leaks

    I just whipped it up quickly to see what the sub would sound like in that size of enclosure, so it's 5/8" MDF, uncarpeted. I sealed all around the edges, but I think a couple of the corners might be leaking. Would that cause a rattling, though? Or is my box just not strong enough and it's...

    What's the best Install School?

    I want to go to a good install school, but don't know which one would be the best. I've looked at the websites of Ritop, Mobile Dynamics, Installer Institute, but I don't know which one would be good. Thanks for your input.

    What's the best sub/amp combo?

    I want to spend about $2500 on a new system. What are everybody's recommendations? I was thinking about doing most of the work myself, so I could spend up to 2000 on products. I don't necessarily want a dedicated SPL system, because I want it to be clean too. For subs I was thinking about...

    Box Building Help/Questions

    I want to put 3 10's in a box. I have heard that it is better to put walls in between the subs. I have heard that if you don't the subs will cancel out each other's sound. Is this true? Thanks.

    subwoofer system questions

    Thanks a lot. I figured that fosgate would be the way to go. What about Polk or MTX? I haven't heard much about MTX on this site. I was just wondering because about a year ago this guy that I know put in a "really sweet system" for about $2500 CDN. That included install and an alarm, but it...

    neon lights

    Is it very complicated to hook up lights to flash with the bass hits? And if not could somenone tell me how, in fairly simple language.(Still learning). Thanks.

    What are the problems with bandpass?

    What are the problems with bandpass? I've heard that they aren't as clear, and you can't hear them distorting, but are there more? What causes these problems? Thanks.
