    Need your opinion on subs!

    Alright sounds good, so the 1 type r is probably going to be better than the 2 10" cvrs?

    Need your opinion on subs!

    Building my own box could be a possibility. I don't need ridiculous subs though, because all i got is a 500 watt alpine am, but it definitely made my type r sound good.

    Need your opinion on subs!

    I recently had a 12 inch type r in a ported box powered by aa Alpine MRP-M500(500 watts rms x1) I got my car broken into and the sub got jacked, but since the amp is installed under the driver seat i luckily still have it. I'm looking to buy new subs but im not sure what exactly i want. Im...

    Fix the light dimming

    Mine doesn't even have AC haha. Should i do something about this before risking damage? Or is the dimming just going to be an annoyance, because i could live with that.

    Fix the light dimming

    Alright thanks. How much do these things cost? I got my HU and sub/amp installed at car toys. You think they could take a look at it? Also, about the sudden increase in dimming. Is it most likely that my ground wire came loose? Like a couple stated above.

    Fix the light dimming

    I have a 94 civic. But yeah, it was pretty bad this morning. Will i eventually damage something if this keeps up?

    Fix the light dimming

    Every time bass hits in my car, the head lights in my car dim slightly(not very noticeable). But this morning i wasn't even playing my music extremely loud, and my headlights were dimming like crazy along with all my interior lights(gauges, Warm/Cool Air controls). I'd understand if i was...

    New amp for my sub

    I currently have a 12" JBL GT-4 Sub. It runs at 250 watts and maxes at 1000 watts. I'm using a 300 max 150 rms watt amp right now(Made by Dual), and I feel i need more power and cleaner bass. Any suggestions?

    HPF Setting

    Alright thanks guys. I'll definitely mess around with those settings and see where it'll sound best.

    HPF Setting

    The High pass filter on my head unit can be adjusted (80 Hz, 120 Hz, 160 Hz, etc.) If I am listening to music in my car fairly loud to a song that has a lot of bass, the sound becomes very distorted and there is a lot of clipping. This usually happens when my volume is at around 20 on the HU...

    # 4 ohms at # 2 ohms at # 4 ohms bridged at # Dynamic power: 300w Pulled that off the amps website: http://www.dualav.com/amplifiers/xpa.html Well, I'm currently in High School, and there are some kids who drive home at the end of the day with there stereos just cranked. The bass is just...

    Not getting the Bass I hoped for

    sorry, it is a sealed enclosure. It is pretty much identical to this.

    Not getting the Bass I hoped for

    Sorry in advance as this may be in the wrong section. I recently purchased a sub+amp package at car toys and got it installed there(for a ridiculous amount). What I ended up getting was a: JBL GT4-12 Subwoofer Dual XPA2100 300 Watt Amp and just a regular box $130 for the 3 items, $30 for a...
