I was trying to find some info about 3 12” sub boxes and setups but I couldn’t find much info on if they are good or just a waste of money. I want to slowly upgrade my car audio system and one of my main concerns is that I listen to a lot of different music that is mastered very differently...

So I’m super new to car audio and want to upgrade my 2009 Toyota Corolla s. I figured out my car has the 8 channel speaker trim package so it has 4 door speakers (I think they a woofers) 2 tweeters and 2 more speakers behind the back seats (idk if what they are). I think that means I need an 8...

So I'm looking into sound deadening my car but I have a couple concerns that I haven't seen addressed anywhere. Starting off, since one of the main goals of sound deadening is reducing road noise, I'm concerned about how well it will do this.  Do I need to be worried about being less able to...

I am fairly new to car audio, so this doesn't always make sense: I have 2 Rockford Fosgate shallow r2s I'm about to order. I already have the box. My main confusion is the OHMs, and what wattage amp I would need. I can either grab two 2ohm subs or two 4ohm subs, what is the difference? Which...

Well I'm still in the process of learning all this stuff and this might be a stupid question, but when you get a brand new subwoofer, how hard/easy are you suppose to bump it? Should you take it easy or act like you would if it was a year old?
