Can anyone give me a real reason my system sucks?

good thread jack....lets do it...Sunday during the day or saturday i dont care...itll be the last time to hear the 9.3 cubes cause im building a smaller box this weekend...

 

x1000

cotjones, whatever you have learned upto this point about caraudio, forget it. Start from that site (posted above) and Relearn.

The size of the sub has nothing to do with how punchy it is, now how low it can play, or even if its sloppy.

Ive heard 8's that extend below subsonic, 15's & 18's that can keep up with some of the quickest beats, ect. Last but not least, how a system turns out is about 90+% dependant on hows its been installed.

 
i was wrong about my comment about 1800 watts but you have to admit the equalizers do seem to make 1 watt sound like 2 (1000 watts from a jl sounds way louder than 1000 from an alpine or rockford or many other brands)
Omfg seriously....

a watt is a watt is a watt

Its the same power either way. If its a clean signal, it doesnt matter if a audiobahn amplifier is putting out that power (real rated RMS power) its still 1000 watts.

cotjones this is for you:

If you have it,

you don't need it,

if you need it,

you don't have it,

if you have it,

you need more of it,

if you have more of it,

you dont need less of it,

you need it to get it,

and you certainly need it to get more of it,

but if you already dont have any of it to begin with,

you cant get any of it to get started,

whitch means you really have no idea how to get it in the first place,do you?

you can share it, sure

you can even stock pile it if you'd like

but you cant fake it

wanting it,needing it, wishing for it

the point is

if you have never had any of it

ever

people just seem to know

^x2 that is a great commercial! Cot you really should check up on what you are talking about as your info is a little misinformed. JL Slash series amp are all regulated power supplies so they can't make such a larger rating you gave it unless JL underrated their power ratings that much. Highest i've seen a JL amp do is a little over 1100rms at 14.8v which is a reasonable number.

I'm sure it can get loud but not however much money you spent on that loud. I am sure it'd be louder with only the 10s in there and no 13. Personally i'd get 2 more 10's to be different and sell the 13.

I think you spent too much time with the people in charlotte who don't know anything about car audio.

 
What a bunch of old heads in here.

Cotjones, almost everyone on this forum are swinging dicks (BIG ONES) they are going to be rude, crude and down right nasty. But they are usually right. So listen to what they say and you will learn something.

You have already shown intrest in the industry and hobby, so stick around and good luck.
