  1. Ok, i dont need the line driver. So if my HU is putting out 4 volts, then i need to set my gain to about 1/4 correct? I read the thread about setting the gain but didnt get it really, am slow i guess, lol. Is this correct?

    Which wood to use?

    I was told by a former "audio guy" that althought 3/4 MDF is used in car audio enclousers, 3/4 partical board could be used to reduce the weight of the encloser. How tru is this?
  3. If am using a 2200 watts rms amp (does rated power), will there be a big difference if i use 2 gage wire instead of 0/1 gage wire for the big 3?
  4. I heard that circuit breakers are not a good idea. Is it tru that they lose their capacity every time they are tripped. So the first time it will trip at rated load, then it will begin to trip at lower values every time it is tripped?

    Which wood to use?

    Ok, thanks guys that helps a hold lot. Now is there anywhere that i can get some cheaper 1/0 gauge wire. The best i found was $6.45 a feet. Any help here?
  6. Can 2 gauge wire be used instead of 1/0 gauge wire?
  7. Am not ripping out the factory wiring, am just wanting to know if using 2 gage instead of 0/1 would be any less effective?
  8. Right now am looking at using a pair of components up front and a pair of coaxial in the back (Ext. Cab Dodge Dakota). So my question is which setup would be best for sound quality: 1) Audioque AQG-6.5 Component Set and Focal Access 165 CA1 = $350.00 total 2) Focal 165 A1 Component Set and Focal Access 165 CA1 = $450 total 3) JL Audio TR650-CSi Component Set and JL Audio C2-650x = $400 total This is what i came up with, just need to know which set these would do the job. I also have the power to use any setup.

    which component set is better?

    haha i couldnt help but picture a teenager doing the gangsta lean in their car tryna be all cool when i read that. in regards to that, why dont you sit up straight like a normal person and set your front stage up nicely? i second the DLS's...i like every set in their line that i've heard. Well just so that its clear, i am a normal person but I drive a ext. cab dakota becuase i pay for college plus other bills and i cant get anything else till i graduate next year. Oh yea, am 6' 7" by the way, maybe just a few feet taller than you.lol so i cant sit straight up even if i wanted to. But i have a amp that runs 200 rms and if i get rid of the rears, then how do you guys suggest i set things up the front stage? I looked at the DLS components but would also like a few other opinions. I also looked at the Rainbow Soundline SLC 265 components, are these better than the JL Audio TR650-CSi Component. Thanks guys

    which component set is better?

    I do need my rears for added vocals and clearity. When i lean back in my seat, my ears are closer to my rears and i feel they do aid in producing desent vocals for this application. I was just wanting to find out what setup would be best, but it seems i need to look at different options for a good stage. Any other suggestions out there?

    Are 2 1000 Watt amps enough for 4 15" BTL's

    a few AQ2200D or AQ3500D amps strapped would do also. great amps

    Package not shipped

    Hey Scott and Nick whats up. I just received 1 of 2 subs that were ordered. UPS said that they dont have any movement on the 2nd sub so more than likely it was not shipped out. They told me to call u and find out if the sub was shipped out , i emailed you the tracking numbers. Tracking info. shows one pakage is delivered, while with the other, it still says billing information recieved.

    Speakers/Components?

    If you know how to blend the 2 then you could uses the stage for both.

  23. Ok, i just bought 2 Fi Q 15's with BP Power and a AQ2200D amp for my truck. I have a 2000 ext. cab dodge dakota and am looking for some enclosure help. I currently have an idea for a certain ported wedge design with my amps fixed to the bottom but it is only 6.2 cu.ft. net with 78 sq.in of port. A similiar design can be found here: http://mobile.jlaudio.com/gallery/detail.php?vehicle_id=1095. If anyone has a design in mind, and would like to show it, I can be emailed at [email protected]. Any input is welcome. Thanks in advance for your input.
