Question on Mids/Tweets and Amp to power them
bigrank916 replied to smullen's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
I hear ya man... I really do, but on this on wants an needs are a different story for this ride... Again, this one is my Daily... It also has to have WAF (Wife Approval Factor)... So I'll be lucky if I can give up the space/power/money for 1 15 Sub and 1 Set of Componets per each Front/Rear doors... Now My Blazer, that will be a different Story all together... With this thread I was just wanting to make sure that the Power I was planning, would decently push the MoMos... Yea, I'd love more power, but I gotta Draw the line somewhere... I'm just wanting to do a basic system here and with a quik really basic off the top of my head estimate I'm already well over 2K... 700 Headunit 300 Front Set MoMos 150 Rear Set MoMos, Buy 1 get one 1/2 off 365 4Ch Amp for Mid/Tweets 615 Sub amp 300 Sub 200 Wiring accessories 2630 Sub tot Thats no Deadener, no install if I have some of it done, no alarm... It'll take awhile just to get all this in... Once the dust settles then I might try to eeek in some Upgrades... Have you looked into buying used from Db-r for the amp? -
Thanks alot and yes it is dual chambered Btw, welcome dude.

What is that supposed to mean. If you put the speaker in the box it will work. Do you mean, youre not sure if it will be loud enough? Not wanting to build another box if its not right? Why not? Thats part of testing. Everyone does that at one point or another.

Sorry man, I dont really know what your saying. I was posting in the newb section cause I thought it was a bit of an elementary problem I had. Didn't really relate to anything audio and I read where some members seemed to be alittle ticked with new members because they might not have used the search tool before posting. I thought I would post here as a starting line. I think it's a good idea to use the search, but I don't think its the end all when I cannot see it performing more than 1 word searches very accurately. Thats why I asked if someone could explain to me how to manipulate the search criteria appropriately. Usually newbs post the first three times there but most do it just once to introduce themselves. You can put things that you are not sure about in the general area. As long as it pertains to car audio. The search tool is kinda rough so good luck with that. I do it manually sometimes but it takes AWHILE.

Nice recessed look. Is that dual chambered?

Is this amp blown?
bigrank916 replied to ShaneSauce's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Try all different variations of connections to the rcas on the amp and if you still have the same sound then Id say there is a problem with the amp. -
I'll save you the trouble. Use cheap rcas as they provide the clearest signal. Foe some reason the nice ones dont work well with sundown and the RFs are horrible I hear.

The 4500D should do the trick. I also know where to find one... You can try one battery to see if it will work. Look into Kinetic, XS, and Deka for some quality batteries. If you dont have a h/o alt though, then it wont even be close. You will need one if you choose to go with around 4k rms. Its not a choice. Ditch the cap and do the big 3 in 1/0 wire. The latter is also mandatory with that much power. You should have several runs of it as well.

Upgrading Electrical
bigrank916 replied to StickyFingaz's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Your first step would be a h/o alt. You can add batteries after when needed. Contact these guys for an estimate. http://www.dcpowerinc.com/ http://www.mechman.com/ http://www.ohiogen.com/ http://stores.ebay.com/Iraggi-Alternator-and-Electronics -
400A circuit breaker?
bigrank916 replied to dr_boom_2000's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Ditch the breakers and go with anl type fuses. Welcome dude. -
What is the max dimensions of the enclosure you can build? This will weed out a few drivers to choose from. And the most important, instead of throwing the driver you want in the wrong enclosure. If your post is about choosing between drivers like 15" BTLs and Xcons, then you arent looking for SQ. You want to be loud.

Need Some Help With a Couple of Choices...
bigrank916 replied to altoncustomtech's topic in General Audio
I would go with the BTL if it was me. They are monsters that sound great. They are musical if you choose the daily option over the spl. The spl is more of a one note wonder. So are you saying you have speakers by the rear seat already? Or you have the space for a 6x9 there and want a suggestion? How do you get Tang Band 6x9 "subwoofers" to reinforce midbass? -
Best? For what?
-
He wants to keep all four seats in the truck. This is why he has raised his seat level to accommodate for more space without sacrificing seats.

The mp3 player is pretty sick for $29. Just loaded about 6 jeezy cds on it and the features are really nice. Pretty happy with it.

glad you got your shit. i was gona order the gps online but my alarm clock didnt wake me up... oh well i got some other ideas... Havent tested out the gps yet but the tv is perfect. A hell of a lot better than my old 50lb tube! Loading up the mp3 player right now. Sucks though cause I only bought one thing for someone else. Wanted to get some of that cmas shopping out of the way. Oh well. You can try pep boys. I know they have a refurb for around the same price and better model but dont know how long the sale is.

Im liking the new tv. Need to run a movie for a better test run.
-
Fresh. Could you have gone bigger with the tv in the dash? Seems a little small for the dash for me. The steering wheel looks good. I want to see it on now!
-
No, not enough for two 12" BTLs. Only one with the aforementioned volume. Instead of downfiring into the deadener, wouldnt it be better to fire agaisnt mdf or plywood perhaps?
-
X2. Have you contacted Db-r to get an estimate to see if it is worth fixing?
-
Well today I managed to spend a shitload of money and some of the things i bought were: TomTom 125ES gps for $59, Philips portable dvd player with 7" screen for $49, 16 gal wet/dry vac for $20, 32" Emerson LCD HDTV for $244, and a Ryobi 18 volt drill/saw combo for $49. Going to hook up the tv tonight and get rid of that tube. My first black friday and it was pretty good. Just wish I would have bought more stuff for everbody else cause that shit was for me.

Reminds me of Mr. Lehey in Trailer Park Boys. Awesome show. I miss it now that I dont have direct tv anymore. My favorite show.

shit 32" for 244 seems good, i dont know shit about tv's but im getting a little 23" lcd computer monitor for $200... idk if i could fit a 32 on my desk tho.. I thought it was a good price no matter what the brand. I figure on going by there after hitting up my other stores but I cant imagine there will be one left after 60 mins. if there are any left after that long id probably not get it.... you figure if ppl skip on a deal like that then there must be something really fucked up with the product. lol im stopping by a place to get my mom a paper shredder but that's it for me... im poor as hell i think im going to get my gf a gps off ebay. i found one like her dads, which works pretty nice, for 50 or 60 bucks used. Too true huh? lol. Plan on getting the Tomtom One 125-SE gps from walmart tomorrow for $59. they have the paper shredder too for $25. What do you think of that gps? Cheapest Ive ever seen. omg thats sweet. thanks for pointing that gps out. ill deff have to pick one of those up instead. gona call it a night, good luck with your shopping edit: a quick search of reivews for the gps seem positive! looks like a good buy I need to get to bed also. Wallyworld opens at 5am and thats my first store. Thanks for the search. I hope I get one. Home Depot...save some shit or me! I LOVE SPENDING MONEY!!
