  1. That's my thoughts too. I don't see a way it couldn't be, but I have never done it so I asked. Thanks!

    Hell, just paint it with an oil based paint. They can custom mix any color you want so your choices are unlimited and on the cheap. Vinyl is another option.

    Low Budget Amps

    Amps only amplify the incoming signal. They do not change the sound. An unclipped, clean signal will sound the same, IMO. The main reasons to buy a brand X over Y are price, features, and brand reliability. Not SQ. If I spent $1500 on an amp I would have already convinced myself it would sound better than the $200 amp it replaced before I even listened to it, therefore it would sound better to me because I just spent all that money. The mind is a very powerful tool. Phychoacoustics. Edit to add if it sounds better to me, that's the goal. So if in the end I am happy then I win.

    SSA, Help me spend my xmas money!!!

    Your going to have to run the AA's active and it does not sound like you have any experience with that. Why not install the Hertz real proper like and call it a day? A good install is not going to be cheap and it's never a bad idea to have money left over so you can buy me something too. lol

    Low Pass filters allow low frequencies to pass below a selected crossover frequency, filtering out all frequencies above it High Pass filters allow high frequencies above a selected crossover frequency to pass, filtering out all frequencies below it Start at 80hz on each for a good starting point. So, you would be sending 80hz and up to your mids/highs and 80hz and down to your subs. Play around with them from there to see what sounds/blends best.

    HU do clip that's why you set them below clipping so you dont amplify a square wave and send it to your speakers.

    curious.. What does it take to "become" a member?

    I'm in Nashville TN, and I wouldn't mind making the trip on a weekend either I'm in the same boat as wagon, being a team member would be amazing, being part of just good people who love Car Audio. Anytime fellas. I will be in Tennessee at least once this year for the SC/TN game and maybe again to meet up with a friend for a show.

    shipping 18' sub

    When I sold my 15's I went to Lowes and bought a sheet of the foam insulation like they put between the house and siding. Forget what it's called, but it pink. I cut out the center out a little bit at a time and set the subs inside that, then inside a cardboard box. Overkill prolly, but the subs arrived safe and sound.

    aq2200 electrical

    http://www.tejcurrent.com/products.htm Builds his own alts. Dual or triple stock alts would be nice for that power and they can be found on the cheap. You could get a dual bracket add another stock alt and have 290a with good output at idle too. Just saying. email him, super nice guy. [email protected]

    HELP

    well dont i need 2000 watts to get the optimum performance from the icons? and whats wrong with the audioq 2200? Nothing! If it fits your budget, go for it. It would be a nice set up with the Icons, IMO.

    Anyone else blare HardNox?

    Most haven't.. Maybe you'll like them? Usually takes me a long time to warm up to a new band or artist. Unless it's the GaGa........Homeboy warmed up quick like on that.
  20. You didnt say what battery, so if it's lead acid if your over 12.4ish or AGM 12.8ish you are not completely discharging the bat, but close to it. Your system is pretty mild and if it was mine, I would just lower the volume one notch at idle before I bought another bat or alt. It's your money tho. How important is that 1 notch compared to the money to get it back?
  21. Sir-Lancelot

    Battery question

    Should be ok, just keep an eye on them and if the dip lower than they rest, give them a little charge. No, you do not need to charge with Kinetik's charger, but it would help to have a trickle charger with an AGM setting.
  22. What HU do you have?
  23. If its at 13v on full tilt I would not worry about it. Certainly would not throw money st it. That's above your bats resting voltage.
