    Why Is It?

    I think I know what you're talking about. But I think we're talking about two different things. I'm saying....when I listen to a sub free-air with my ear to the front of the cone, and then turn the sub around and put my ear to the back of the sub, the wave coming off the back of the sub has...

    Why Is It?

    Why is it that the wave coming off the back of a speaker or subwoofer is louder than the wave coming off the front? I've noticed that with all my speakers and subs when I broke them in free-air in my house. I'd listen to the sub, then I'd turn it around, and the wave coming from the back of...

    How to get bass in the cabin?

    As Jtomsic stated, it sounds like you need a better soundstage. You shouldn't NEED ANY mids and highs coming from the back of you. Those should be in front of you, just like at a concert. And if your sub is crossed over correctly, the bass, all though it's coming from the trunk, will be...

    How to get bass in the cabin?

    1) You could port your reardeck. By making maybe a 4" hole between your rear speakers to let some of the bass from the trunk into the cabin. 2) You normally don't need rear speakers once you get subs, so take them out and the bass will definately come in the cabin. 3) Get some small subs and...

    12 inch image dynamic IDMAX 279, good price???

    I usually see the new IDMAX 12's go for $279-$289 + shipping. $220 shipped might've been a good deal from the seller's point of view if he bought it from an authorized dealer. But if he got it from an unauthorized dealer, that seems just a little bit high, but not by too much though..

    Wow, Nikosbuddy, we need to meet up or somethin man. You shouldn't need 2300 watts for your system. My SEALED 15AE is ridiculous with about 1200 watts. I had it ported, but it was tearing my car apart, literally. I'd like to see your setup man, bcuz you shouldn't need that much for daily...

    Can Koda 8's Keep Up With My 15AE?

    Hey peoplez, I'm wondering about the Adire Koda 8" midbass speakers. I ordered some Kicker MB8's, but they ended up being on back order for a week. So I have the decision to cancel the order, and get a pair of Koda 8's. Now, I have no experience with any of Adire's products, and I need to...

    Kicker SSMB8 Midbass Questions...

    Thanx Geolemon, That was very informative I noticed u recommend to cross them over at 300hz and let my 3-1/2's take it from there, but... I can only find f-mods and bass blockers for 200hz & 500hz, so which would u suggest? My 2 channel amp's LP crossover only goes upto 150hz, so I'd...
