Pretty much all I need out of the headunit are 3 preouts. I really am not into spending much money into a sound system for a $600 dollar car. Even $100 dollars for the CD player and amp (plus 30 for the rear "subs") is $130 dollars. I'm still not sure where I'm going to mount the amps yet. I may...

is that 50x2 4 ohm or 2 ohm?

It really doesnt matter. I'm not trying to put together anything special, just enough to enjoy my music. Up front I'm going to have Boston SL60's powered by an alpine MRP-T220 (its weak but it has good SQ and its what I got). The back I just bought...

I recently got a 600 dollar ford escort (so I can put my MR2 away for the winter) and I've got some left over speakers that used to be in my MR2 that I figure I might as well put in the escort. I've already got speakers and an alpine amp for them, but I just bought 2 pyramid 6.5inch subwoofers...

I've been planning on getting an alpine 9835, but seeing how they are really hard to find new, are there any other options I have that wont cost a ton of money? I have maybe $250 dollars to spend. After having decent home speakers, I would really like to be able to have the speakers image. If I...

I need to find something that doesnt melt. I bought some stuff there a while ago and it melted.

I couldnt find any clay wouldnt would not melt, so i cut out rings of sound deadener and place them on both sides of a 3/4" MDF ring I made. (the metal part is touching the wood on both sides). Does this work? I'm wondering if its possible it could do more harm than good if the metal on wood...

How is your hearing?

Ive been reading and there is a temporary threshold shift that does come back within 24-48 hours. So I am laying off anything loud for the next few days and hopefully it will come back. I really hope it does... But otherwise people would be completely deaf after 2 rock concerts. I've been to...

I'm planning on getting an alpine 9835 sometime in the near future, so that will give me a full EQ. I just have the treble center control right now. I cant really put the tweeters futher down. First I really dont want the soundstage coming from the floor of the car and second there just really...

I did. They are set at -4db. And its not completely a volume issue. I used to listen to my SL60's at much louder volumes and never lost hearing from it. My car also isnt the best setup, the tweeters are right on the pillars maybe 18" (or less) away from me and the speakers are down near my...

btw, as far as price id like to keep it under $100 or so but if I would be losing quality over the bostons I would pay more.

Not that this isnt a known problem, but the tweeters that came with my Boston Pro60's are just killing me. Right now i cant hear too well out of my left ear and its really annoying me. I really hope it comes back....And i cant stop listening cause it still sounds so **** good (I dont listen that...

Same! I bought some Pro60's off of them 2 weeks ago they shipped very fast and the box still had the original boston sealing "tape" closing the box. Looks to be untampered with. My only problem is I'm going deaf from the Pro60 tweeters....

The eDead v4 actually works pretty well, double layered I put it over my home stereo (which sucks, but still) and it almost completely killed any sound coming from the mid/tweeter on it. So thats good. It is kind of expensive though.
