Hi all. Just bought a 2013 VT Turbo. What I want to do is just hook up my ported 10" sub and 750W amp to the factory system. I had this setup in my old Mazda3. I left alone the factory deck and speakers, and just patched in the amp and sub thru the rear - and + speakers using a line output...

box is horrbile.. made from particle board and glue

amp has high level imputs. Just talked to an installer, he said run the remote wire to the Line Output Converter, and patch the speaker wires to the left+right rear, and that's all I need to do. he even said I could even try patching into the left only and it should work as left channel...

called a local pawn shop looking for a 10" sub enclosure. This guy said he had only one with the sub in it. said I could have it for $50.. not sure on the rms or model number, i'm guessing 200 watts rms based on research

Change of plan ;-) I am a noob, but I DO listen... upon all of your advise, I brought back the crappy Scosche Subs, And I went into an Audio Shop, and I was going to buy a 10" Clarion that was rated 400 watts RMS for $100. I told the guy i'd think about it, and went to another Audio shop and...

lock this thread please.. too much hate and spam.. making fun of a mazda? really? how is that relevant?

dirt joe, I don't appreciate you flame... since you went there, My overclocked AMD 6 core would blow your I7's out of the water! They are stable at 4.4 Ghz on AIR!! I have 14 aftermarket low noise High CFM fans cooling my rig. My case is a custom one, designed from the ground up to facilitate...

Wow! put your e-*****'s away please. look, I know it's crap, I went cheap because unlike most of you, I can't justify spending 1000's of dollars on speakers just to hear a little more base from my car!! I drive a 2007 Mazda 3 Sport GT. It has power everything, and the luxury package. My...

Started a new thread because I returned the 600 watt dual 4/3/2 channel amp, and bought instead this amp. 550 Watt Amplifier - 48756 - Walmart Canada - Save Money Live Better. I want to wire both my 10" 450 watt Scosche woofers to my factory audio to provide extra bass. Scosche 10" Sub 450 Max...

nice pics hope... How do the blade terminal connectors stay on the terminals? The just slide over and then bend them with pliers? Sauder them together? The connections on the inside of the sub enclosure are definitely for those blade connectors, but the ones on the subs themselves, are...

Kind of piggy-backing off another thread I started, however I ran into a new problem.. I just bought 2 of these: Amazon.com: Scosche SW1004 10" 450 Watt subwoofer: Electronics I also bought a sub enclosure made to fit 2 10" subs, the enclosure itself has 2 easy quick connects on the back for...

Thanks hope.. as always sound advise... I read the manual, It says use low level output for best results with subs... I will run the remote wire to the factory head unit.. that should be enough to turn amp on and off? and one more question... By just running each sub off of bridged 1+2...

ok.. i've taken the advise, I ditched the 6x9's.... I bought this amp today: Dual XPA4100 4-Channel 600 Watt Car Amplifier (XPA-4100) from Solid Signal and 2 of these 10" subs. Scosche 10" Sub 450 Max Watts 150 Watts RMS Power - 48748 - Walmart Canada - Save Money Live Better. can someone...

great guys.. thanks for the tips! So if I have 6 factory speakers do I have to install a bass blocker at each speaker, or can I install one at the head unit... I know on some factory head units there is a separate plug labeled bass, can't I just unplug that cable from the head unit?

it's ok keep ;-) i'm appreciative of your help, any anyone else's. I just don't understand why I was dragged into this, I never claimed to know what I was talking about.. I just knew it was possible to do it all with 1 amp instead of 2. Would it be better to use a seperate amp for each speaker...
