    Speakers getting wet, foam cups or fiberglass enclosure for midbass drivers?

    It seems like the speakers are getting wet from being dripped onto from above. The only problem with the install is that the door card wont allow for the speakers to be mounted out far enough that water wont drip onto the magnets even with the rubber "umbrella" i have put in and those DLS...

    Speakers getting wet, foam cups or fiberglass enclosure for midbass drivers?

    I have just installed my DLS UP6i component set in the front of my car and sound deadened the doors. I installed a rubber "moisture guard/roof" over the midbasses but when I took them out the other day I noticed that they were still getting wet and I am afraid that this will kill my speakers...

    How is it possible to build a .3 Cube enclosure with this sub?

    I have an Infinity Kappa Perfect10 VQ 10" and I am trying to build a legit box for sq. The recommended size box with the low q insert for a sealed box is .3 ft^3 (i have lost the mid q insert . I am assuming that that is not including the basket displacement which is .072 ft^3. This is a 10"...

    Active setup how powerful of amp?

    I drive a car with a large battery and relatively large alternator so I dont think that power will be an issue between the two choices. (My Sub amp is a class D). I also have enough space to squeese in the two soundstreams into the trunk. Efficiency aside and space aside, will the two A/B...

    Active setup how powerful of amp?

    Ok I think that I am going to go with one of these two options for my active setup unless you guys have an alternative suggestion for roughly the same cost: 1) Bi amp with Soundstream PX2.200 for tweeters and Soundstream PX2.580 for the woofers PX2.200 runs 70x2 rms, tweeters take 50 rms/80...

    Active setup how powerful of amp?

    I had to search around various sources to find the specs on the BK800.4, so you are probably correct in assuming that these are unreliable. Will the PPI P900.4 be too powerful of an amp for these tweeters even with the gains turned down appropriately? they are rated at 50 rms, 80 max. I don't...

    Active setup how powerful of amp?

    Between a PPI Black Ice BK800.4 and a PPI P900.4 which would you choose, pricing aside? BK800.4 specs: 130x4 .55% THD+noise PPI P900.4 Specs power output @ 1.0% THD, 14.4V 145W x 4 @ 4ohm Would the differences in SQ even be noticeable at those levels?

    Active setup how powerful of amp?

    I am trying running an active setup for the first time with one set of DLS up6i components I just bought along with a Pioneer Prs 80 Head Unit and I need a 4ch amp. (Sub and amp for sub are already taken care of) The UP6i speakers are rated at 150rms / 180max 4ohms. I know the tweeter is...
