    Austin863's X-WAGON Build

    I wouldn't put midbass speakers behind me period. Put the IA components in the kick and install the 8s in the door.

    Yeah Im pretty sure he said the 18's will be the last ones that he will start upgrading, the smaller sizes are first iirc.

    RF Pro Audio Mids

    RF Pro Audio Mids

    When I say better quality I don't mean component speakers. I'm talking about companies who specialize in pro audio equipment, speakers that will get louder and play lower than rockford fosgates will. Check out usspeaker.com or parts-express.com. Why no 10s or 12s, less speakers and will still be louder.

    RF Pro Audio Mids

    I like my RFs too, but if your gonna go big in the Hummer than I would suggest better quality speakers. Just depends on what your looking for and budget.

    98 Plymouth breeze build - 2 18's on 4000watts

    Music is dynamic and amps aren't a 100% efficient so regardless the amp rating underated or not you wont see the full rms.

    Jefferson and his service techs.

    300 dollars and no money back. Maybe you want to give me 300 for a piece of junk? Naw I wouldn't be in that position in the first place, research would have told me not to deal with Stetsom. We understand you lost money but no need in beating a dead horse.

    This thread is pointless period, you already got your point across. Grow up and let it go already.

      Well thats excellent news because I went with the Prime Series, R600-4D. I didnt want to shell any big money for a class d till I got my Zed so I went with a lower series. Thanks for the info because I was looking at that Power series one as well.

    98 Plymouth breeze build - 2 18's on 4000watts

    Don't put 18s in 3-4 cubic feet, that's the space needed for 15s. Id rather have the right subs in the right enclosure rather than 2 subs in a too small enclosure.

    what amp to run

    The ohm load will have nothing to do with getting the SA's to there full potentiol. Having (4) D4 ohm subwoofers will get you an to a .5 ohm load or 2 ohm load, if you dont have a good electrical or not competing then stick with a 2 ohm load. A good amp that will power those subs would be and Audiopipe 3000, Rockford 2500 or Kicker 2500. Just depends on your budget really, how much do you want to spend on an amplifier? Wiring diagram for (4) D4 ohms subs, 2 ohm load:

    what amp to run

    What are the subs, d2 or d4? This will help answer your question better.

    Speaker wire discoloration

    14 gauge wire

    Speaker wire discoloration

    I have two different brands of speaker wire that are turning green inside the jacket. It is not turning green at the ends just in certain areas of the covered wire. Ive spent two hours googling and just seen multiple forums and websites where it turned into an argument whether the discoloration was due to oxidation or the chemical reaction between cheap insulation and the copper wire. Please don't turn this into a pissing contest. Either you know or don't know, don't need guesses. What causes the discoloration and will it affect the signal if used? Remember its not at the ends, just restating that for the people who can't read. One set of wire is brand new and it came like this in the unopened spool, Monster cable. The other was installed in my car for a while and turned green over time, Monoprice cable.
