So.. Got my stuff working, now it's tunning time!. Setup: Lc2i for line out conv. ,amp jbl 500a1, and 2 jl 10wt1 for subs @ 2ohms. So far what i did was turn lc2i until max light is off (which it's zero), but maxed the "mid" & "bass" knob but then a funky smell came up, so i turned all...

ok, through my search, found that theres Resonance dampening and sound absorption, the MLV stuff seems non stick so it would be absorbing, does it work as good as the sticky stuff? looks the same as the dynomat stuff. The way i understood it one muffs the sound and the other creates a barrier...

I'm looking to start dampening, mostly for road noise, how much is recommended? the instructions say 30% but all the vids I've seen do pretty much 100% of the area? so is more better or wasteful

Appreciate the help, talking to some people ama start doing it right. So I’ll be getting some bass first and add proper dampening then I’ll be working up from that. I was trying to get everything at once but these things can be overwhelming… I really don’t want to be loud but rather sound nice...

ok, I'm trying to add an JBL ms8 and a JBL ms-a1004 down the road for mids and vocals.. should i try new speakers on a factory radio or nah, go full into it? I've had so many shty systems that i think factory works the best.. what 6x9's you recommend? btw so many tweeters where the reason i...

actually i was looking at these fro sq: 6.5's Amazon.com : 2-Way 6.5" Coaxial Speaker (Sold As Pair) : Car Electronics 6x9's http://www.amazon.com/3-Way-Triaxial-Speaker-Sold-Pair/dp/B00TA2X2VI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1427016031&sr=8-1&keywords=soundqubed+6x9 but my biggest...

on that note, would it be convenient to replace front 6x9's with better 6.5's at the front? probably, factory ones are enough for being stock. back in the day one of my dude's had about 4-6 of them cheap one's spread in his van, and sht I'm traumatized for life

i think i already knew the answer about then sundowns, lol...The RE where my top choice tho this ones? for that price, I'm getting them then.. https://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/silver-flute-woofers-6-7/silver-flute-w17rc38-04-ohm-6-1/2-wool-cone/ honestly i rather avoid anything with...

lets say i have a 4ohm front and 2ohm rear, will the amp compensate for each speaker at their respectable ohms and output?

i might not have enough experience it car audio, but honestly one thing i would never buy used is electronic stuff. In my opinion electronic stuff is bought "AS IS" since it could be almost impossible to pinpoint what went wrong, i had bought many things on forums and its pretty much based on...

the mk3?

yes! i remember having a low end setup and it always read 11.8-13v's, is it an electrical upgrade issue? if so, is there a rule of thumb or just have more than what you need always?

do you need to add gain to compensate or tuning is separate from output? thanks.

the closest dealer is 2hrs away, is it worth it? regular and dynamic?
