Cone area vs wattage...

Yeah, I've got 4 alternators on my Silverado. Running high voltage, I'd just have one stock alternator. Nothing fancy for the on-board charging system.

I just need more cabin volume than what I've got right now

 
Yeah, I was more kidding than anything. I just blurted the first thing that came to mind. I would do the math first. If I pulled the rear seats/cargo trim I could get pretty close to enough space.
I am seriously cruising CL and Ebay for Probes right now. Lol
get a CRX or similar hatchbacks if you want to break 160

High voltage was something not common "back in the day". Hell, extreme high amp alternators were rare.
And capacitors were popular...
capcitors are still somewhat relevant, as in maxwell ultracapacitor banks.

 
Probe is a hatchback. 160 of the dash is a lofty goal, used to be anyway.

Funny all this started being fed (audio addiction) by installing some equipment in my work trucks (I have a small business and so does my wife). Going from simple, complete "systems" to wanting to go all balls in 6 months.

It is just SO cheap compared to what it used to be. 6k watts in 1998 was uber expensive.

160db now a days is like 150db back in 2005 lol... Prly like a 145db in 1998 lol

wait till you see brazilian amps. can get a banda 7k for about 550 used.

 
What is efficiency at with amps now? Watts vs. Amperage needed?

Maybe I could buy my wife a new van and use her current one?

It already has a decent little set up in it (components, rear fill, NVX 5 channel and a Image Dynamics 15 in a ported box.

 
I was hardly saying that it is a non-moving, single factor issue.
I am newer to this site and can tell your a fucktard dwelling in your mother's basement.

Please remove yourself from ANY thread I start as your input will be looked past.

Hope that was clear enough...
well why post such a stupid ass question?

any good installer would have laughed and said what i said. just shows me your not to great at system design.

Fucktard says what? Clearly you can't write or read proper english.

Ask your Momma to make you some pizza rolls and bounce...

Seriously, most can clearly tell your the guy fascinated by car audio but can't afford to take action like you speak.

Poser...

 
Bigger coils killed efficency so they had to go to more power. The trend now is killing efficency even more which kills upper bass responce.

But it's cool to say you run 1356788 watts to one sub for dem lowz

But we can play lower louder than the 90s. Way lower, way louder
the coil i have in my driver is 88 grams.. the cone on the other had is freaking heavy(over 250 grams //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif. i wanted lighter but the woofer is capable of 35mm linear each way and the lighter cones don't do well). so are the larger 10" spiders. sill around 88db 1w/1m. granted the displacement capabilities of the woofer i wouldn't run under 2kw to it as its pointless but i must say i do agree with you. unless i put a carbon cone i cant help it much(unless you dont mind reconing them). the carbon cones are 200 bucks a peace. the thing is though that this woofer and others are capable of utilizing much larger boxes so despite the lower 1w1m rating the total system efficiency is MUCH higher. i promise you with the larger woofers in 4.25 tuned to 35 with 2500 will get you into the high 140s and sound good at least my woofer will. hehe that just wasn't possible then. no woofer could take 3kw daily..

Hey now...

My mom still makes me pizza rolls //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

usually 60% to high 70% at 1 ohm. Even less at half ohm and below. A van will work but you'll want bigger subs or else it'll cost a lot with multiple smaller subs.

that was WEAK fascinated with car audio? my mom cooks for me? and i'm poor? ill leave you alone because cleanly your the local village idiot. i've paid lawyers more than you make in a year more than likely..

Again, your a poser. Seen it many times through many employees.

I am secure enough in my fiscal situation to not need to embolden myself on puffery. I could get in a pissing match saying to show your taxes and put up or shut up but a poser will do what a poser does, try to fake it. Just like "your" sub from China...copy/paste. Look I had a sub built. Poser.
