    Alpine Type S or Type R?

    Is there anywhere I can pick up a pre fab ported box built for the Type S or Type R? I don't wanna go thru the trouble of designing and building a box. Call me lazy, but I just want to put something together quickly and nicely.

    Alpine Type S or Type R?

    I don't plan on upgrading the amp later on. I've spent over $2000 the last couple years on stuff for my car. I just want something reliable that sounds great and will last until my car dies:fro:

    Alpine Type S or Type R?

    I got rid of my 15" Avalanche (Box was too big and its amp blew out). I'm lookin at pickin up two 10's to save trunk space. My amp I'll use to pwoer them is an Orion 5004. It is: 75x4 @ 4 ohm 125x4 @ 2 ohm 250 x 2 @ 4 ohm I'm gonna bridge it so it produces the bolded power. Would two 10...

    Help with bass!

    I hope the sub isn't damaged, but I'll try and pull that bad boy out tonight and check it out.

    Onlinecarstereo Store

    I wouldn't buy from them My Clarion refurbished unit tanked on me after a week. My friend bought a Pioneer unit from them that tanked after 5 minutes. They then sent him one that was DOA.

    Help with bass!

    The amp is running at 1 ohm and it's 1 ohm stable... I've been running this set up since last July and it hasn't started doing this until now. Perhaps one of the wires going to the sub came loose inside the box?

    Help with bass!

    My subwoofer keeps cutting out. It'll play bass for 30 seconds, then cut out for 10-20 seconds, come back on, then shut off for 5 minutes at a time and then come on for 10 minutes. I can't predict anything... I checked the fuses, none are blown. The power light on the amp remains on even...

    I don't know anymore

    It is facing the trunk lid. If you open the trunk, the sub is literally 3 inches away from the trunk lid. I had to do this because at first, I ran out of ground wire so the box had to be close to my grounding point (the bolt on near the trunk lid. I ordered more wiring though and I'm redoing...

    I don't know anymore

    2.4cu sealed. Directed 1100d I mounted my amp right on to the sub box. Could this be causing excess rattling?

    I don't know anymore

    My avalanche just isn't the subwoofer I envisioned it to be. The rattling in the trunk is insane and freakin annoying. I have it sound deadened too. Should I take off the rear torsion bar? Maybe that's what's causing it. Subsonic frequencies caused too much rattling in the trunk so I had to...

    Capacitor Help

    Capacitors hold in small carges in between big bass hits. The higher the voltage at a given farad rating, the more power it should put out. 1 Farad @ 36 volts should put out 36 amps in one second. I would suggest getting a higher amperage alternator first, and if you continue to have...

    Why do most of you guys drive cars?

    Hardly anyone drives SUVs up here. Most people realized they don't freaking use the extra cargo space and that you can sit more people in a Cadillac Sedan than in a Ford Explorer. Gas is quite pricey round here too. I like my car.

    I hate Mexicans

    Each race has its pain in the *****. Mostly, when I drive around town and see white people on the road they point at my car and get pissed off that they can subtly hear my music from outside (even though I have my car osund deadened). I usually get compliments from black people who are nice...

    Amp overheats

    amp is in the trunk with the sub. Amp is 1ohm stable. Amp works fine and I played it for 2 hours last night in cool temps. But when it gets hot outside tha amp cuts all the time.

    Amp 1 Ohm stable: 10-15 min only?

    It may be overheating. In which case, it probly won't matter what resistance you are running with.
