    Speaker Grill Question

    i want to use the factory grill which is already fixed to the door panel and the second grill is fixed to the actual coaxial speaker. So basically, if I want to use these speakers, I have to settle for using both grills. So do you think that will affect the speakers output of SQ?

    Speaker Grill Question

    Would the sound of a fullrange speaker such as a 6" coaxial or a 6" Midbass be affected by having "2" metal speaker grills covering it? In other words, I have an older model MB Quart coaxial that comes already mounted behind a metal grill and I want to mount it in a door behind the factory...

    09 Chevy Siverado Extended Cab Sub Box Suggestions

    Wiring 2 Channel in Mono

    I have a PPI PC2600 amp. 150 watts x 2 or 600 x 1 (at 4 ohms). I want to use it to drive either a JL Audio 12W6 which carries a 2 ohm load, or a 10W7 which carries a 3 ohm load. Would there be any problem using this amp for the single 10W7 at 3 ohms? What about using that amp to drive a 12W6...

    PPI PCX4125 Amplifier

    4 x 125 or even better, 2 x 500 watts! Yeah it's worth it! I would guess that amp sold for 800 to 1000 bucks brand new. All the PPI amps from the PCX series and before, perform way above most all of the competition.
