I currently have a 5" focal mid range in the front doors, two soundstream tws.4 on the front dash. in the rear is a rockford fosgate prime component set with the woofers on the rear deck and tweeters on the top of the rear window. I'm not pleased with how the front sounds so I need something better up there. I have a four channel amp that does about 75 each channel and a two channel that does 125 each channel. I was thinking something along the lines of a midbass and new tweeter in the front, then possible using the focal mids and tws.4 tweeters for the rear. My doors have no bass at all and overall it is not loud enough. I'm on a budget so used and low price is what I'm looking for. Just thought I'd add: I can fit a 5.25, 6.5 5x7 and 6x8s in all four mounting locations.

Looked into that part number and it says its from a 2005-2006 Ford GT. Now Is that a mustang GT or an actual GT? Either way do you think theses are good speakers? they're 55 dollar speakers. how good do you want them to be? haha it seem some ppl on other sites are picking them up but no real reviews or comparison yet. maybe in a few days some will give their impressions. or pick some up and tell us about them? Well with the original they have on there at 140, I'd expect something good. I just want them to be able to put out some decent bass without blowing up. i did some more research and found this http://www.motoringinvestments.com/AC201.htm, check out the stock speakers pictured about 2/3 to 3/4 the way down the page... looks like the aura's but under the mcintosh name? if you look at the pictures on partsexpress, the magnet has a cover over it. i think, chances are aura built these speakers for mcintosh and/or rebranded them. Well with the original they have on there at 140, I'd expect something good. I just want them to be able to put out some decent bass without blowing up. FIXED

Need some new door mids and tweeters.
djtomczak replied to djtomczak's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
Well I'd say my budget is around 100. The tweeters I have now could still be used in the rear as they are decent. But if not there's another 20 on the budget. So around 120+ without my tweeters. I plan to have dash tweeters and midrange in the from doors. And for the back the speakers are on the deck and right now my tweeters are in thebtop corners of the rear window. Its a 2003 ford Taurus ses. I have alot of bass from my aubs but my front is not loud enough. I have to turn it all the way up just before distortion to have it be at a good level. -
profile ap740 is amazing.
djtomczak posted a topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
I have a Profike HA740 4 channel amp with Rockford fosgate components on the rear and two focal midrange on the front all at 4 ohms. Maxed the gains out to all four channels and I have no clipping or distortion. Checked it with a local shop and they said no clipping at all. Profile amps equal amazing. They are now out of business though:( Messed the title up, I meant HA740. -
Gain setting problem
djtomczak replied to djtomczak's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Set it on a 57hz tone, which is in the middle of the 35-80 and I played white girl with some insane clipping. I just set it by ear on that song. -
I have a Soundstream TRX 2.550 and I need to properly set the gains for my subs. I checked the sticky in this section and it says to use the frequency that the bass boosts uses. My boost is +18 from 35-80hz. So what tone should I use?? I wish I didn't have to use the Bass boost knob but I have no other way to turn the subwoofer level down as I am on a factory stereo. If I turn the bass down on the factory stereo it turns the bass down for all speakers making it sound bad. Thanks

I'm using a dmm. Would 40 work with my bass boost? because I bet there's a frequency that rises more than 40 :/ -

It would work but not smoothly. He wants to do gaming too, I would have a lot more confidence running my own dedicated card. I've been through the whole computer stage and I've built many desktops and laptops. I know my stuff. -

Neither of those have a dedicated graphics card = fail. You need a dedicated card to do gaming. No.. not if you do Cloud Gaming which is what i was talking about earlier. It is a very nice technology that allows a user to save money on the requirement of upgrading hardware over time to keep up with gaming technology. You could a laptop purchased 5 years ago with this service and 10 years from now, it would still be plenty fast.. Minus the requirement for Solidworks... I'm money conscious, just trying to find the best deal for the price. I'd never buy a laptop without a dedicated card, just bad idea in my opinion. Even with solid works and cad it would suffer from the intel 3k. -

Hp and dell are meh. And those displays arent a very high resolution. The msi one I recommended would be good. I hate a 1920 x 1080 res -

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152258 Should work pretty well. But it will get a bit hot being a quad core in a laptop. 8gb ram would keep lag down when doing cad. GT540 for graphics on games and cad. 640gb hard drive and you could throw an SSD in for a huge performance boost. -

So an al around fast laptop, meaning Processor, graphics, SSD, and memory. Hold on a bit I'll look for one. -

Never buy either of those, terribly over priced. Unless you are an apple fanboy. What are you looking to do with it? -
I plan to get two SA 12s along with either a sax 1200 or saz 1500. I need some box dimensions and what one of those amps to get. I mainly play rap with a lot of lows if that helps. Thanks! Out of all the designs on here there are no dual 3.5^3 enclosures, and those don't list the frequency.
-
I have 15" height with 38" width in my trunk. If it could be made down to 36" width and just longer that would be great. I'm going to be housing two SA12s on a 1500d. Specs of the site say 1.75 each at 30 hz so 3.5 at 30 should be right then correct? If it helps I always listen to rap with a lot of low notes. I currently have a design from this site for a 3.2 cube that I will build tomorrow but if someone can help me out with a design tonight that would be great. 3/4 MDF. THANKS!

I'm on kind of a tight budget so money has some wight in the decision. I'd never buy used subwoofers. I like the FiXs but I'm afraid they wouldn't be on the same level as the LI12s. I need some evidence. Thanks for putting up with my indecisiveness by the way !

ssa and fi Which of those are ssa...haha none of them, dcon icon xcon and zcons are all SSA There are no SSA in my comparison:p

ssa and fi Which of those are ssa...haha

Which of those are made in USA?

No the people of SSA believe Kevin is crap, he is not. HE was not a dealer he was undercutting SSA which is bad. Ohh, so hes not an actual dealer then? Makes sense, he offered me 295 shipped for two VVX12s. I looked at the FI Xs and they dont look like they would be on the same level of the other ones. On Fis site they claim they are their entry level subs. With the BP option they are great woofers, don't only look at RMS. All are good options, seriously as said before flip a coin and you won't be set wrong. True that. But with the price added together those add up to be 342 shipped. So VVX are still in the lead. Race ends Tuesday when I get paid!

So what I'm getting is the VVXs are crap, and the dealer who PMed me is now banned? So now the VVxs are out and The FI xs are in? The Fi Xs compare the the SA12s and LI12s even though they run 400 rms?

I was set on buying some SA12s and a sundown 1200d, until I saw Lethal injections on sale here for 151 each. Which ones are better, SA12 or LI12??? I like low end bass on rap songs. I built a box for the SA12s, would the LI12s fit in 3.2ft at 30hz? I'm terrible with decision making when it comes to buying something!
