    Rainbow Germanium Questions

    1) Thanks. I was kind of curious which amps are best bang for the buck, but that's another thread... 2) No, what I mean is, can I adjust the crossover point between the tweeter and the midrange? If so, what are the limits?

    Rainbow Germanium Questions

    ^^^ Thanks Headless 1) Funny... I've been out of the game for more than a few years, but I've never even heard of Zapco. In my day (5 years ago), Xtant was a great company that seems to have gone the way of the Dodo. Is Zapco now the amp leader, or just something that everyone on here seems...

    Rainbow Germanium Questions

    There are about a thousand questions about them here, but I wanted to ask a few more: 1) I see that they're rated at 100 RMS and 150 MAX, but I was wondering what people power theirs with? Any specific 4-channel amps you would recommend (I'd like to bridge the other two channels into a DVC...

    Questions about the Germaniums

    I see that EVERYONE on here is fanatical about them, so please bear with me as I'm a newbie here. I hear all of your opinions, but I have yet to see ONE review of them in English. Not one. I saw a review of them in German on their site, but I have no idea if that is a reputable mag or not...

    Installation Costs... what should I expect?

    True enough. So do my other concerns sound reasonable, or am I just lazy? One thing I also forgot to mention is that I no longer have a garage or driveway to work in like I used to. That hurts.

    Installation Costs... what should I expect?

    So, my question is, is $800 a raping, or is that reasonable? I DEFINITELY trust the installer, so that's not an issue at all. The reason I ask is that I want to know if I should start looking for other installers, or if this is reasonable, and I won't bother looking around.

    Installation Costs... what should I expect?

    I've installed my own system before. Years ago, I had a simple system in an old LeBaron (Oz Audio 6.5 components up front with two Fosgate Punch 12" DVC subs in back with two amps to power them). However, there are a few reasons why I don't want to do this myself. 1) Fit of the sub box. The...

    Installation Costs... what should I expect?

    I'm looking to get my front factory speakers replaced (components, tweets in the dash, woofers in the front doors), get a subwoofer added in a fiberglass enclosure in the trunk, and get an amp added in a place that's out of sight (they're not doing anything special for it, just putting it out of...

    Rear Speakers... some opinions needed

    I guess my biggest fear is that at my size (6'9"), my legs block my door speakers (I'm not putting in kick panels or any other after-market box). Will I have any problems hearing the mid-range of sound from the left channel?

    Rear Speakers... some opinions needed

    So I'm thinking of upgrading the speakers in my TSX, but I'm being told that upgrading the rear speakers (both door and in the deck) is not recommended. Now I don't care about my back seat passengers at all, so that's not the issue. I'm just wondering if everything will sound alright with just...
