For those who hate reading, i bolded some of the information that probably matters most to you lol.
Hey all, ive been lurkin on CA.com for a few weeks learning a lot of great information and felt i should finally introduce myself.
I'm a car enthusiast and growing to be interested in car audio. I drive an 03 VW GTI VR6 and currently i have an alpine 9885, alpine 10"type r 4ohm DVC currently in a .65 cube sealed box powered by an alpine mrp m850 amp.
in the mail i have 2 sets of PG RSD65cs components and im about to pick up an alpine mrp f450 amp locally of which i will be running passively until i pick up possible an alpine 9887 so i can run active.
also im about to build a ported box. 1.5 cubes @32hz for my single 10" i also plan to line my trunk with some sort of deadener and also line my doors too. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Big 3 is also on my to do list.
Ive been through a few setups in the past, my first being my OE stereo with a 12W3 in a sealed box powered by a niche 400e amp. i then get a pioneer dehp 8600. sold that setup together for a good price and went back to my OE deck and got a basslink II which i was really happy with. someone shot me an offer i coudlnt refuse so i sold it and bought an alpine 9885 with the ipod cable since my ipod has a huge amount of songs on it.
im aware i can get better amps but for the prices i paid/ will pay for the alpine amps, im pretty happy and i like having matching equipment as much as possible (with exception to the PG components)
I have experience in car audio retail. I worked for circuit city roadshop for 2 years and although i did learn a good amount of basic information and installation, it still doesnt compare to what i learned on here. Just when i thought i knew it all, boy was i wrong. Im looking forward to learning tons more on here.
here are pics of my car
sorry if i said too much lol.
