    nobody likes rockford fosgate??

    I ask because i started paying attention to car audio in about 1985. I couldnt afford the crap, but i watched. i remember this Trans Am(Yep, Smokey and the Bandit style) that had 4 punch 10s in the back and that thing was incredible. Punch was only available at select car audio stores. Now it...

    nobody likes rockford fosgate??

    Ok, admittedly, I have not been very active in car audio for some time. In reading the posts in this forum, nobody seems to be using Punch subs. Can punch owners chime in on quality of the various RF subs. Heck, anybody chime in.... im open to all suggestions. What is wrong with these subs...

    Type R...dissapointed

    I am going to guess that you simple dont have all of your settings correct and this is why it doesnt sound like you want it. ALL of your settings should start at 0 or no gain. Then simply adjust at the EQ and you should be good. I would bet you lunch you just have things wrong and that is...

    voice coil jumper question

    Im looking at some used Type Rs on ebay and most of them state the voice coile jumpers will not be included. Do these just make wiring the sub a little easier. Them missing is not a big deal is it??? Thanks

    What does running "active" mean?

    I went back and edited my original post. Sometimes things seem so simple that my explanation may have confused some. I hope it did not confuse anyone.

    What does running "active" mean?

    If you have a 4 channel amp, but you need a separate channel for each speaker. 6 speakers...... you need 6 channels of amplification. Had to fix that. sorry

    What does running "active" mean?

    People do it because it allows you to tailor the sound to how YOU want it. i can set the crossover frequency for the tweeters at what i want, then the mids at the frequency I want, then the sub at the frequency I want. The crossover lso has output gain for each amplifier which allows more...

    Have patience

    Sorry. but no way to take pics now with the seat back in. Only thing you would see now is an empty back seat/ Partially see the sub box under one side. Ive now emptied out under the seat for when I put in the 2 10s im thinking about:)

    Have patience

    I moved my amps and crossover from under the rear seat of my silverado to the back wall on the cab. Got everything about done, hooked it up, started the car and turned everything on and holly crap, some nasty alternator whine. In the past i would have been rushing through just wanting to get...

    4ohm 8ohm, how different will it be?

    I have about 10 inches under the seat. the sub will actually have about 9-1/4". I will need to double the thickness of the top of the box to keep the seat from touching the sub.
