    How do I make my own 3-way component system?

    Just looking at speakers, there arent too many 3-way 6 1/2" speakers without tweeters mounted on them...I may just go with a 3-way system package. Is Focal any good? Worth the money? Any other suggestions similar to the Focal K2 Power 165 KRX3 100 watts rms @ 4 ohms? maybe a little bit more...

    How do I make my own 3-way component system?

    I was looking into putting a 3-way system in my front doors. 1 6-1/2" woofer, 1 4" midrange, 1 tweeter. My amp that'll be pushing it runs 200 watts rms @ 2 ohms and 100 watts rms @ 4 ohms. How would I choose speaker rms ratings? Is it broken down to 60% woofer watts plus 30% mids and 10% tweeter...

    After upgrading the big 3, headlights still dim..

    I just upgraded the big 3 today to 0 gauge wire for everything but my headlights still dim when my subs hit..I guess my next step would be to upgrade my alternator. How much power do I need from a higher output alternator. I've got one Alpine 600 watt amp pushing 2 10" Rockford Fosgate p3...

    How to make a neon light hit with subs?

    just looking into some cold cathode lights...looks like some come with a power adapter that can be used from 2 volts to 208 so it seems like that would work if wired right off the amp...

    How to make a neon light hit with subs?

    I was thinking about getting a neon or cold cathode light and hooking it up so when my subs hit the light goes with it. How would I go about doing it? I know if I hooked it up to the speaker outputs on the amp it would work but eventually would blow the light on power spikes. Any suggestions on...

    Multiple speakers on same channel of amp

    I thought a four channel wouldn't work because of the difference in speakers...I don't understand..if a channel is only as strongest as the weakest link why would two different speakers similar in power not work together on the same channel?
