hi all, here is a problem that most import cars are dealing with. i have a family and we take my car on trips so i need most of the trunk for junk. what can i do or what has others done for big bass with no air space. i have had all sorts of boxes and sizes and they all take up all the trunk...

brokeitagain. dont get discourraged people just tell you what they know. with that here is what i know. when you build a box for 2 subs shared space the volume needs to be big enough for both subs. say each sub requires 2 cubes then you need a 4 cub net box. keep in mind that that is after...

ok guys, i started this post under "wattage results" and got a lot of answers. i finally got an ammeter but it limitd out. it only went to 25 volts when i needed one to read over 40 so the amps peaked also. anyway i went to the other formula saying voltage squared divided by ohms equals...

if you are wanting higher spl but conserve space the 4 8" will give more surfae area than 1 12" therefore giving you more spl at the same power.

there are t quick ways both depend upon your head unit. 1. if you have aux inputs on you hu then use the headphones output from the pc with a rca splitter wire to the inputs on the hu and you will be fine. 2 if your head unit has a usb port then you can plug directly into the usb port and it...

helotaxi you sound like you know your stuff. i was just wanting to know how many watts my subs were recieving at a certain point and i learned so much more. all you guys out here are verry helpful thanks. looks like i need to get a clamp style ammmeter and get the reading now. and you are...

i know it is late and most wont read this till morning but thanks for all the input. i guess from what you all are telling me there is no simple way to take a measurement and convert to real world wattage. i guess there is no dynojet for amplifers like there is for horsepower in a car. anyway...

ignorme. you are correct. i am wanting real world wattage results. and i only have a dmm. can you measure at the speakre leads with a dmm and get the num bers needed or does it absoultly have to be a clamp style ammeter. i don't have one of thoes and don't know where i can get one. what i...

blunt, what does a acv and aca stand for.

the subs are wired in 2ohm load. just for info they are in a shared enclosure each with its own signal. the amp is seeing a 2 ohm stereo load.

hi everyone it has been a while on the site. i have a question for the electricians. i want to know exactly what my subs are recieving in wattage. here are my numbers. amp is 400x2 4ohm rms -- 800x2 2ohm max or 2200x1 2ohm max it is a soundstorm 2f2200 model amp. subs are audiobahn 750 rms...

here is my problem. i don't have the physical space to get a box of that size in the trunk. i think it will be enough room if it would only fit

here is a question i need help with. i have been designing a system for a freind and we have been through multiple changes. the question is can you mount 4 subs in the same space on seperate plains. for example 2 on the face and 2 on the back of the box where the magnets are pointing at each...

hey jellyfish, i see you posted your car is a 94. i have a 89 grand prix that is a junker with all the interrior pannels in good shape. was wondering if you might be interrested in some parts if they will interchange. looks like they would. email me at jmrundles@hotmail.com with any...

ive heard it said a number of times that the majority of the sound in a ported system acutally comes from the port. is this true. if it is then just how critical is port placement in the vehicle. j
