[QUOTE="EvanJL, post: 8530852, member: 671437"] I have some extra car audio items lying around and was toying with the idea of building a portable stereo to take camping and what not. I am no expert in the audio game so I figured I would run my idea by some people prior to starting. I realize the equipment being used isn't top notch. Components: Amp: BOSS RIP500w 2 channel amp Sub: Infinity 1050w Speakers: Two Pioneer TS-G1645R 6.5" Plan: -Sealed enclosure with sub and speakers in separate chambers. -Amp with internal high and low crossovers --- will leave on full so no crossover activated -Wire the two speakers in series to one channel -Wire the other channel to the sub with an after amplifier passive low-pass crossover -Hook amp to car battery that will be attached to the enclosure. -Use cord with red/white RCAs on one end and a 3.5mm male head phone connector to connect system to ipod to provide signal to amp. Questions: - Will this set up work? I think it will but i may be way off base. - Can I do a crossover after amplifier? If so, any product recommendations - Should i separate each speaker into its own chamber? - Any thoughts on how long the system would run off a car battery....i realize i depends on the size of the battery but how about like a medium sized battery that you would find in an SUV? Hopefully that is enough info---let me know what you think. [/QUOTE]
