Bizzy Beats

http://phattybassboxes.com they just got their website up and it's not completely done but they make very good high quality boxes.

I am building a ported enclosure and am wondering how everyone paint their ports all the way to the back. I have thought about painting the port before i put the box together but i just wanted to make sure there wasn't a better way to do it. My port is pretty small, 2.5" to be exact, so I cannot reach my spray gun inside it.

it's a slot port. im just going to pre paint the port then. thanks

thanks that solves all my problems

I just wondering if there is a way to calculate how much port area you need? I know a basic way to do this is to have 16 square inches of port area for every cube of box volume. I also know that port area needed for a driver has nothing to do with the volume of the enclosure. so how would I calculate the right amount of port area for a driver?

guess it's simple and I over thought it. thanks for the help

I have 2 t2500-1bdcp's that I would like to strap together to run 1 smd 15" subwoofer. I haven't bought the sub yet because I don't know how to wire it to 1 ohm per amp. if anyone could tell me how to strap these amps together and wire the sub that would great.

ok and they have better alternators? because DC has a lot of good reviews.

I am gong to be getting 4 Rockford fosgate t2500-1bdcp's and im wondering if there was a way to calculate exactly how much power I will need. I am planning on getting 2 DC 300 amp Spx alternators and 5 xs 2700 Batteries. will that be enough or does anyone have any other suggestions?

it's a daily system. I will have to check out stinger. thanks for the advice

I am going to be getting some hertz 165xl components and am considering running them active with a nice sound processor. The problem is I don't know much about sound processors or running speakers active. what should I look for when buying a processor? is it worth it or should I just use the crossover that comes with the speakers?

anybody?

that's my plan but I do like to learn.

and where might I go to learn more about those things

one I liked was the Morel Supreme SCW 636. Has anyone had any experience with this speaker?

awesome. those are good sites. do morel speakers compare to hertz In a way? I found some morel speakers that look pretty good.

where would I look to buy speakers for a active set up? and where would be the "best" place for them in a 2001 Tahoe.

I have a 2001 Tahoe. My goals are to get the most sq out of my speakers as I can but also I would like them to get loud and Keep up with the bass.

yes, unless there is better place ?

oh ok. thanks for clearing that up! I will have to look into the mille line then.

2 sets wouldn't make it that much louder? maybe I should just get 1 set of the mille line.

yeah that seems like a smarter choice.

I have been wanting to put a mac mini in my car for a while now but still have a few questions. First off, would I need a head unit or could I somehow just use a amp and a sound processor? If so how would this be done? Second what are some good 10" touch screen monitors that will work well with a mac mini?

I just ordered a bunch of second skin damplifier and I plan on covering as much as possible in the door and trying to seal the door off the best I can. I am installing 2 15" or 2 18" (haven't decided yet) and I need mids and highs to keep up. I have thought about putting 2 sets up front and just some cheaper hertz speakers in the back.

but which way would I get better results?
