    RD Audio 18" Alpha V.2...?

    go up on youtube and look up singaboy311. he has that same shape of box. subs up, port back, whole nine yards. he has 9ft3 not sure if its each or total, but they are the LMS Ultras, so i am leaning on each....anyway, just look up his vids of the 15's, and the throw-it-up video, they show the sides of the box, same general shape and chit, if that helps at all. probably not. whatevr, cant wait to see this done!

    Lovin tha bass, but is it worth it?

    Im with him. Not to be an ass but because he cant even drive yet. It's great to have goals and plans, but no way in hell is this kid gonna drop a few grand on a system when he's 14. I had my first stereo installed in my car before I had my license. It's his money to do what he wants to with it. Back on topic. Remember that the box has to fit THROUGH the trunk opening, which I doubt is possible for an 18" in a trunk. I guess it is possible, but it will be tough. Why doesn't he consider 2 bad ass 12's? i mean, i would be fine with it i don't understand why he isn't...i keep telling him that the pioneers will be more than enough....i was looking forward to seeing them actually, never seen a true competition class woofer in person crap bells gonna ring in a few, gotta finish my programming lesson
  5. so yesterday, we were chillin, and my buddy spits out, hey i think, wait- i KNOW i want two type x's in my car, when i get the new trans. i said, should be good. now. this is the funny part. he went to walmart to see what they had, in terms of two temporary 12's(something ot listen to while he is fixing up the car) he picked up two pioneer's. only 150 rms each, and only being fed 100 each, they are easily as loud as my other friends two MTX 4500 12's off of 1000w. these pioneers are in a prefab, the MTX are in a custom. can anyone explain this to me? i know there are factors like the shape of the car, but jeez!

    Lovin tha bass, but is it worth it?

    itsa sedan. i looked at the trunk, and it appears to be able to hold an 18. he really wants to go this route, 110%. if there is ANY way under 700 to build a box to fit in that trunk, he wants to know. it is for low frequency SPL, not for like, that high bass, ewww.... want it to be able to pound on music though...thanks for any suggestions! To be competitive in SPL competitions, you will be playing tones above the normal range for subwoofers. damn....none do like, 25 or 30 hz tones? You want to play at the resonant frequency of the vehicle. Usually in the 45-55 Hz range. oh i get it how do you figure the cars frequency?

    be carefull...more is not always better.. I can make a pair of 10" get louder than a single 18" in a bad install.... there is NO way an 18" will properly fit in that car with out loosing the rear seat area,walling or a blow thru if done right you should be able to hit the high 140's with a pair of 12" blowthrough meaning, through the back deck? or through the seat?

    ASS!! my friend saw the Fi's online, he was looking for 18's, because he was bored, and now i think he has a BTL fetish. i am trying to tell him that the two twelves will be enough, but he doesnt believe me. and I was wrong on the car, it isnt a WRX it it an Impreza. would a ported BTL fit in his trunk? hate to change topics so late, but it does have quite a bit more surface area.... what do you guys think? what should i tell him? to scrap the idea, or to roll with it? sorry i keep confusing you guys, but everything else is staying the same. will be running a 1500D as power, and two yellowtops(one under the hood) all we need to do short-term, is find some cheap, yet reliable 0ga. either way as a matter of fact, because those sundowns are hungry smile.gif i am definetly thinking upward facing if we go through with it, and a low tuned custom box....probably around 26-30 hz. he is looking for the absolutely outstanding lows, like Put On's lowest note, just freakishly loud. thanks for any feedback, sorry that the plans keep changing!!

    Back pack speakers

    i own at dis chit, rockin the school scene, gettin paper, gath'rin haters! sorry, had to spit a few lines, lol. anyone in need of a nice compact mobile audio system, i.e. backpack speakers hit me up. mine is tippin the scales at 10lbs and pushin the 115db mark with the highs. bass is still iffy, gotta lower impedance but hey, just got it, work in progress same old same old. i can build from scratch, but seein as i am 14, and have no source of usable income, you would have to be in my area. (chicago, well plainfield but still close to). so thats my shpeal. whatever, pm me if you wanna call me or whatever to talk tech chit.

    Lovin tha bass, but is it worth it?

    well, something nice and crisp, pretty high end, not like 'focal' good but you know, not like wal mart stuff. want it to be able to blend together. maybe SEAS? also, how good are pioneer tweeters and mids? not too expensive, but are they worth what you pay? i was lookin at the five-way's.... Okay, you just listed pretty much all the options. haha. How would you feel about going active? "active" means directly from the amp right? no external x-overs? if so, thats OK by me

    x2 i do try, i honestly do, but we all say stupid stuff around here and even if i account for 90% of it, it doesnt mean you have the right to dictate what i can and cant do. that is outright RUDE. now shut your lips and LEARN. there we go, got my thoughts across, M5 style

    GOOD FRIGGIN' NEWS!!!!!

    so, i found out on saturday that after i come up with 1400 bucks for repairs, i can have my dads old car. it is a 99' ford contour. you know me, the typical basshead, already thinkin about possible woofers. i settled upon the IA-DP21 i want to put a wall where the backseat is, and integrate the box into the car. (i.e. make a box using wall of backseat, firing woofer into cabin, porting it through the rear deck) I think it would look cool as hell. Here is the amp i am gonna use: http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=5694 i know, not the best but i want to bump a little while saving up for a 3kd. damn, bell rang g2g to lunch. ty for feedback on this idea!
