    Brahma 12 in tight space, help

    What year mustang? If it's a newer one you should have plenty of space for a 12 without having to upfire or anything like that once you take the backseat out and remove the rear plastic headrest thingy. I got 12's in there that way. It works out to closer to 14 inches(a little more actually...

    older kicker l7 vs. new l7?

    I heard from someone that "upgraded" from the old L7's to the new L7's that the new L5's have about the same output potential as the old L7's and the new L7's have more potential than the old ones. I didn't believe him, I just thought they wanted to make it look "flasher." Can anyone shed some...

    HX2 possible repair Q

    One of my subs stopped moving so I popped it out and examined it. I looked down into the sub and saw that the broze coil(voice coil I assume?) had a break in it. The top layer of the coil was raised from the rest of the coil and broken in half. Anyway to repair this? The sub is out of warranty.

    Solo X is it really as good as they say? pfft

    At one time it was nothing but for SPL, but he hasn't competed with it in a long time. Its become more an annoyingly loud daily driver nowadays.

    Solo X is it really as good as they say? pfft

    the solo x's are loud, but they don't sound very good. my friend took out his 2 L7 12's tuned to 45hz and when the solo x's came out he put in 1 12 solo x. He tuned the box to 55hz and gained 2.5db. He's also got 5000 watts on it. One thing ya gotta look at, the box for the 1 12 is bigger...

    I finally heard how bad xplods are....

    exactly, I had to have 1 install done "professionally" b/c I did not have any time to do it myself. I told them to make me a good sealed box, I didn't care about the price. They gave me a shitty 60 dollar pre fab particle board box. It was a joke. I took it back and made them take it out...

    Help on Subs... Which?

    the power HX2's, but ONLY if you have the room to port them. Tune them between 35-40 for the daily driver, higher if you want the true potential of the sub. Give each one atleast 1000 watts, no more than 1500.

    Whats wrong with my magnum d2?

    the bass level is gonna be -7 to +7. I would keep it at 0 at the VERY most. I've had some setups where i set it at -7, lol, but that was b/c the bass was extreme even at very low volumes. The sub level doesn't really matter as far as I know, i usually keep mine anywhere from 5-11, 15 if I...

    Whats wrong with my magnum d2?

    I am by no means an expert compared to many people on here but I have 3 thoughts.... 1. The sealed box could be your problem, expecially if it is not made of atleast 3/4 inch MDF. I'm not a fan of sealed boxes, they kill SPL, port it and tune it low for SQ. 2. The gains on the amp are too...

    L7 vs W7 ?

    I hate when people act like W7's do not get loud. I know of several W7 setups that get really loud. A local shop owner has a car with 2 13W7's and 2 1000/1's. It's freaking loud and SSSSOOOOO....clear. He took the backseat of a car and welded a box into the metal of the car so it will never...

    In an SUV i've always noticed the same setup was much louder than a trunk. Thats just my own personal experience tho

    Another FUSE problem

    nope, the wiring is as near perfect as I can get, and it is properly tuned. Maybe overly so, it doesnt even clip at full volume. I was running cheap 80 amp fuses from radio shack and was pulling much more than that. So I just went up to 250 amp so when I upgrade the system down the line I...
