I have an Alpine MRP-F300 four channel, specs say it can do 50w at 4 ohms and 75w at 2 ohms. I'm running my active two way setup with this amp. My tweeters are 4 ohm and mid bass are 2 ohm (2.2 to be exact). My question is: Since the amp is stable at two and four ohms, can I use two of the...

My 03 C230's factory Bose amp has 8 channels. Front tweeters, front woofers, rear woofers, center fill, and sub. The processor can take in 4 channels. I am also ditching the center fill. Obviously I should use the front tweeters and woofers, but I am worried about losing bass if I leave out the...

I wish I could give the bit a digital signal from the factory head unit. But the fiber optics are a proprietary "D2B" connector rather than the Toslink connector that the Bit uses. If I had bought a 2005 or newer, I could use Audison's new "DMI" thing that taps into "MOST" fiber optic systems...

I wish I still had my XJ, loved that thing so much. Can't wait to see how this ends up!

Hey everyone, It's been a long while since I have been active on this awesome forum. I've just traded my Jeep for a new to me 03 MB C230 Coupe and the factory Bose system in this car is pretty underwhelming. Here's what I salvaged from my Jeep's system that needs a new home: Audison Bit Ten D...

I vote ported JLW6v2 with an Alpine MRP-M500 Thats what I run and id buy it again in a heartbeat, perfect balance between SPL and accuracy IMO.

I don't actually have a head unit per se, I'm running a Pure i-20 home audio dock optical into my BitTen as my only source. I love the dock but came across a write up a few days ago about Apple's AirPlay that I peaked my interest and wondered if anyone has done it before with good results. Take...

The 12db and 24db settings are referring to the slope of the filter. The higher the number, the steeper the slope. If you use a steeper slope you will hear less of the frequencies below where you set the filter, the shallower the slope the more you will hear. This is the interface for the...

CDT ES-02 "Tweeters" (250-20kHz) Rainbow Sound line 6.5" Midbass' (50-4250Hz) Ported 12W6v2 No rear fill Fully active w/ a BitTen D 50W per front driver, 500W to Sub (Alpine MRP) Tweeters are mounted in on axis pvc end caps where the dash and A-pillars meet, mids off axis low in the doors...

For whoever was wondering, as of now i have zero deadening or any kind of treatment in my doors. Thats my next step, hopefully it will be the answer.

Those look pretty sweet, ill have to keep my eye out for a pair. Im also going for the stock look, mainly because i dont really have any other option without fiberglass.

ive tried them at 250, 400, 500, 1000, and 4250 haha. I can honestly say i think they sound amazing crossed at 250, i have them set at -10db on my bit ten and the midbass at 0db. they handle the wide range so well in my opinion. its insane having the entire vocal range coming from the dash. Ive...

Ok, im on the hunt for the perfect 6.5" driver for my setup. Ive been searching endless forums and cant make up my mind on what would suit my setup best. My setup consists of CDT ES-02 tweeter/midranges playing from 250Hz up mounted on axis on the dash. A set of Rainbow SLX165 midbass drivers...

I know this company has gone bankrupt or that they came close which doesnt say good things, but I can't deny how appealing I think their CD-500 HU is with its simple look and impressive features. I am just wondering if anyone on here has had experience with this HU or something similar and can...

I think i might like the little bit of less high end, i really dont like any kind of bright tweeters and always seem to find my self turning my tweeters down on my BitTen. Im just worried that the 50 watts i can give them wont be enough.
