There we go. I was on the maestro part of the website.

2008 they have g35 I just didn't see g37s coupe. They have it for the 2011 g37 though.

Will those work with any head unit or do i have to buy one with a special port on the back? I also went to the idata website but it doesn't look like they have one for my year

I have read a little bit up on XS batteries and Mechman alternators But on Mechmans webite, when i enter all my car info (Car brand-Nissan, Model-Altima, Year 2001. Nothing pops up) What are your opinions on what i should need to run Two Sundown SA-12 D4s on a Sundown SAZ-1500D v3 at 1ohm (1500watts) with 1/0 Xs flex wire?

So i have a friend that shows me Prefab bandpass boxes and i keep telling him not to waist his money and build it himself or find someone who knows what they are doing (he only has 2 p2s i think at the moment). I don't know much about Rockford subs or what the box specs are let alone for 4 of them. He also doesn't get what i mean by prefabs being cheap and not having the right tune. He think i mean tuning his head unit or amp. So basically what is the proper tune for a ported box for four P3D4-12s so i can tell him to find someone and just tell them you want a ported box tuned to -blank- for four p3's to fit what ever his trunk size is. I know it sounds kind of stupid to tell someone to do that without explaining more. He also lives in Arizona so if anyone knows a trusted builder around that area that would help as well.

So i bought pioneer ts d1720c and the tweeters are pretty harsh. I have them mounted buy my side mirrors. They aren't directed right at me but they are pretty close to me. I have them wired at -3db on the crossover as well and running off of my head unit at the moment. They also get pretty distorted in my opinion if i turn my stereo up at 27/35 (35 is the loudest it gets) Should i try different mounting spots? I have also read some bad things about these tweeters but i understand its all about the install and tuning.

As of right now meaning I will soon be getting an amp everything is off of head unit and ran through crossovers

$104 with free shipping. Sorry its taking me so long to reply. I'm at work and I don't get of till 2:15 am eastern

Looking for a good Amp to run just a pair of pioneer TS-D17020C component speakers? I don't want to spend more than $400

Haha. I wasn't going to sound deaden my amp. It was just a quick question instead of making a whole new post.

Sweet, thanks. Oh and i keep readings about don i think his name is for sound deadening. Can you tell me anything about him?

Thank you.

I will soon be running Two SA-12s on a saz 1500d and i want to get new speakers. The ones i have in my car now are terrible, 1 is blown and the others are on the way out as well. They are 6 1/2 all around and im looking for opinions on reasonably good speakers i could pick up at best buy or something of that nature. I have seen some speakers that go for $200+ a pair and have heard of others that are half that that and do just as much.

I would much rather have components, I've just never had experience installing them. What do you recommend for those? i would like to be able to pick them up in store because i don't really live in a great area and i get home at 2:30am so im scared someone will take it off my front porch haha. If i have to i will order online instead of wasting money on something that is just "ok" The only ones i see in store that are 6 1/2 (the rest are 5 1/4) are Alpine SPS-610C, Kenwood KFC-P709PS and Kicker 40CSS654 The same series of Pioneer speakers in component sets are pretty nice as well. I've not had any experience with the Kenwood or Kicker components you mentioned but the Alpine SPS's are too shabby either, though it's my opinion the Pioneers do sound a bit smoother. There's also the Incriminator Audio 6.5" components that quite a few people seem to really like. As far as ordering things, I believe that Fedex and UPS have the capability or option of shipping to a local store, or holding it at a local delivery point so that you can simply go and pick it up instead of having it shipped directly to your door if you can't trust your neighborhood. That may be something you can take advantage of in your case, or have it shipped somewhere you don't have to worry about it disappearing and can trust the person you send it to will give it to you when you go to get it from them. There's not a ton of options for someone in your shoes, but there are options. Components aren't that much more difficult to install, they just require a little more work and planning. One of the best things you can do when you go to install components is to not simply set your mind on just one and only one location to mount the tweeters and be comfortable with making modifications to your vehicle. The best thing to do is use some double sided tape or something similar to stick them in different locations. Do that and listen to them in those locations for a bit to get a good feel for the sound. Try different aiming directions where applicable as well. In locations where they don't sound as good try switching the polarity on one, then the other, then both to see if it helps. Then once you find the perfect spot that sounds the best to you make them permanently installed in that location. If all that is too much for your current installation skills, or you're not comfortable making any permanent modifications to your vehicle it might be best to stick with the coaxials for now. Thanks for all the help, Its hard to show my appreciation online. I bought the Pioneer TS-D1720C components with some foam speaker baffles to help keep them from water and ill probably buy some sound deadening next paycheck. I know i keep asking you questions but you seem to have the fastest and most unbiased and fair answers in my opinion. Im looking for good sound quality but at the same time good bass. Now i only bought the components for my front door speakers. Should i buy the same for my back speakers or should i get some Mid-bass drivers? My back speakers are the ones that sit right behind the back seats right above the trunk, not inside the back doors.

Thanks A lot. just bought them.

http://www.sonicelectronix.com/cat_i452_speaker-baffles.html something like one of these will help. I don't recommend using the whole thing and sealing the speaker up though, cut it in half and use it on the top side of the speaker. That will keep the water from the window opening from pouring in on the speaker. just a hunch, is it a Cobalt? Do you think the plastic or foam would be better. I would think foam. No its a Nissan Altima haha

I was looking at the pioneer TS-D1720C models and have read some good things about them. i think they are about $220 for the pair. Im also more than willing to try new things with my car and i also have a family friend that use to install stereo equipment a few years back and is now an electrician. He said he would also be more than willing to help me out with setting everything up in person. I also have 1 more questions about speakers haha. I'm almost positive that the reason my stock speakers are damaged is because of water. they have a constant crackling to them and i read a few reviews about my year of car having a problem with water damage to the speakers. How would i go about keeping my new speakers safe from possible water damage?

I would much rather have components, I've just never had experience installing them. What do you recommend for those? i would like to be able to pick them up in store because i don't really live in a great area and i get home at 2:30am so im scared someone will take it off my front porch haha.

Sweet! I think my trunk is a little bigger than my last and its not a hatchback. Do you think the same measurements will sound just as good? From what I'm seeing it was 37" x 17.5" x 17.5" tuned to 32hz with 56sqin of port area. As long as it would fit it should be fine. Like I said, if you need it redesigned to fit the new car just let me know. I don't get off work till 2am but i should be off this Friday so ill probably double check my trunk and let you know then.

Its been a while since i have kept up with the audio industry and even when i did i was still a rookie. I was lucky enough to have a guy by the name of Alton from this same forum make me box measurements for my car but sadly my car was stolen right before i got to install everything in late 2012. I finally have a car with a big enough trunk to do it all over again hah. So know for my question. I have Two Sundown SA-12 D4's that will be running on a Sundown Saz-1500d v.3 WIth 1/0 gauge xs wire. My question is where and what are your opinions on trusted inline fuse holders that will fit my wire gauge and also how many should i get? Im guessing two. I have seen some pretty pricey holders so i would like to stay under $30-$35.

I know how that is, alton did a design for 6 ssa dcon 15s and my truck got wrecked before I had a chance to build it. Damn, Im still upset that i didnt get to install it yet but at the same time im extreamly happy that i didn't because i would no longer have anything.

Thanks a lot.

So I have Two Sundown SA-12 D4's on a Saz-1500d v.3 amp. my head unit only has 1 output so would http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/cde-134hd/ work with that setup?

Just got two of them, they look like they should do the trick and they are pretty cheap. Thanks
