So I was looking into the focal k2p comps for my front stage. Pros? cons? likes and dislikes?

We need to give choice back to the parents, right now teachers unions want no competition and you paying taxes for it which allows them to teach at sub par levels, create school vouchers giving parents the choice of school which equal more competition for public schools. Also get rid of the department of education no where in the constitution does it the word "education" come up, bring it back to the state and local level, the more money we put into education the worse it gets,In 2000 the DoE budget was $33 billion, currently it is $64 billion, has it improved at all? Not in my eyes. It's our responsibility to determine what is best for our kids, not the federal government

Wow and these children are going to be the future leaders of America. Scary huh?

mmm I love the SC's! I miss my mn-12

I used to be a mercury man but since I got my dime Im lovin chevy

If you really want to spend that much...I'd look into a Focal Utopia, Morel Ultimo, Aura NS, Rainbow Vanadium. Some of the best subs I've heard when money's no object. You better be running Hybrid, Scanspeak, or something similar up front, otherwise I don't really see the logic in it Honestly Jim I didnt think 1k on a sub was alot of money...especially a 15". As for your front stage suggestions...does that mean I cant go with the sony xplod like i wanted

Ok so I want to buy a sub but I dont know what to get. So I was hoping you guys could steer me in the right direction. Every time that I bought a sub I went to the store and listened to it and if I liked it I bought it. Now, I am most likely going to buy it online. So my question here is what am I looking at/for when I shop onlie for a sub? Here is kind of what I am looking for: Either a 12" or 15" (ill take suggestions for both) 1500 wrms in a sealed box. Please dont just say "Go with these cuz they are effin awesome!". Tell me why they are effin awesome. I need to have an educated decision because my truck is literary being built around the sub. Thanks in advance! P.S. Im going for more of an SQ setup. SPL is nice but not in a daily driver.

Its not so much that Im worried about the sub. Its moreso the sub box, thats why I need the sub. The sub enclosure I have in mind seats will have to be replaced with bucket seats. Thats why Im saying the truck will be built around the sub. I wont know front stage placement until the seats are in. I know its a messed up order of building but I have a specific design plan in my head. Well, the budget on the sub is going to be around 1k. Im only going for a single sub so the good thing is I have extra scratch to beef up the budget.

I was always weary about buying audio equip on the net. After hearing nothing but great reviews on Jakes customer service and products I figured I would give Sundown a try. Best thing I ever did!

I remember when I had the type x they were only 1000wrms. Peak maybe 3000wrms though

Where I work we have this non-flexible polymer composite called synthane and it comes in 4X8X3/4 sheets. Now I was wondering if this woould work for a box? I mean in theory it should, its dense and non flexible. I was just wondering if anyone has ever head of this material. I highly doubt its ever been used as in a box, I would imagine its very expensive.

Are you dead set on lumber? If not I would look into fiberglass

Welcome

Well im pretty much stuck between either the rli-10s or the rlp12s. I was just wondering if the 12s would be too big to put in my ext dime? I want a good mix of SQ and power without having to put in bulletproof glass. I have an amp picked out for the 10s, a pheonix gold x600.1 but I dont know what I would power the 12s with if i decide to go the route. Thanks.

anyone?

Hey guys Im having issues trying to find a decent mounting kit for my dime. I have a 2000 but I have gone from 1.5 DIN to 2 DIN. THe thing I dont like is that I had to cut the plastic piece that the OEM stereo rested on. So now the HU I have just kinda floats. I was wondering if anyone knows of a mounting kit that will stop this, something like a pocket that it will slide into. Thanks in advance.

welcome! love to see pics of your setup

Sweet! Just ordered mine.

MMmmm MoPar Mmmmmm

Oh my God, oh my God! Who's the man? Thats right, Jake IS the MAN! I just might take two.

If its all about the nav then go with the kenwood. They come with garmin nav. Alpines are nice too I just got the IVA-W205 today.
