Loud System

[shizzzon 461]

since he wants to downsize power, he has to get the most cone area to make up for it.

[jcarter1885 995]

will your folks let you take up the whole trunk, thats what it seems like he should be asking so he nows what he can and cant do.

4 tens in a trunk? Wow good luck with getting the size near optimal

[shizzzon 461]

supposedly he says he has the room all facing forward too.

supposedly he says he has the room all facing forward too.

well i am pretty sure i can fit it. idc if it takes up the whole trunk... should i face it foward into the cabin or back towards the trunk?

so for the electrical. i got a new alternator and the cars running fine. its just when i add this system idk if im going to need anything extra... although this is running 1000 watts vs before it was 1200-1500. So it is downsizing a little.

Okay if i go with the 4 pioneers im looking at around 1000 watts and so what if i used a Powermaster D5100 as my main battery. Would that put a strain on the alternator?

this is the D5100:

Negative Terminal - Right

Over 30% more reserve capacity than OEM

Provides hours of additional play time and allows more depth of discharge without damage

AGM design allows complete recovery from full discharges

Available in both standard and reversed polarities

Excellent under-hood replacement for many imports

Can easily power systems up to 2000 watts when used as the main battery

Great supplemental battery for systems up to 3000 watts

3 Year Warranty

OH ok, i'm assuming this is an OEM replaced alt, correct?

And for this much room, you HAVE to face it forward! The box would be too large to face backwards, it would choke itself.

run this setup without an added battery but if it looks to have problems, get a 60aH batt in the back and u be fine.

yeah its OEM, there is only one kind that can fit in my car and its 120amp... vovlo blowss. anyways so now all i gotta do is sell my current stuff before my parents will let me buy my new stuff plus i need to make some more money because i got a sick idea for the box...

im thinking have the subs how u had them facing forward and then just wrapped in whatever, then on the opposite side, when you open the trunk, have a huge plexiglass window and surround the rest of the back piece with like a gucci or louis vuitton cloth thing. i saw a car at the shop where i installed my stuff with that and it looked sick.

so then if its gunna be facing forward the depth can easily be 22 so 17H x 42W x 22D would give me 9.09 gross... then what.

[shizzzon 461]

sorry but not good idea.

the port gonna take a lot of length and will fill a big portion of the rear wall.

[Doctor Q 12]

so i wont be able to do a glass thing at all? i want something so when i open the trunk it looks cool. any way to do that or am i just gunna have to suck it up. could i do a small window toward the top of the rear wall and just make it long width wise but not go to far down?

[jcarter1885 995]

get a xs power d2400 and you can keep the setup you have now or i would just keep the amp you have, get two 12" Incriminator Audio Lethat Injection subs and call it day or try the 15"s if you have the space. just my .02

well no matter what i tell my mechanic or my parents they want me to downsize. Plus this will, or atleast should, be louder than my Q so i actually benefit and the 10's are only $60 a piece. Im set on this setup i just need to sell my current one and figure out my box and amp for this.

[jcarter1885 995]

how much are you letting the 15" FI Q go for

[Doctor Q 12]

how much are you letting the 15" FI Q go for

sub, amp, custom box i was asking 700-800. i think that maybe too much but idk so i said 795 but negotiable. what do you guys think? i think tomrw im going to lower it to 695.

bought it as follows:

sub - 340

amp - 310 plus 50-60 for wires

speaker wire - like 20-30

plus custom box.

[jcarter1885 995]

so its just a complete package deal, I know someone who wants a 15" Q who lives in Tallahassee,FL thats why I was asking but thats cool. hope all goes well

naw just the sub, he has an amp for it. is that box custom built for your trunk? If not what are the dimensions of the box?

Price for Sub? Price for Sub and Box?

Thankx

[jcarter1885 995]

I think you should keep that amp for your car and just watch how you set the gains and how you control the volume knob. That way if and when you upgrade in the future or get older and can do what you want you will have a good quality amp, that will save you money in buying a new amp for your new setup.

dim. 17H by 42W by 13D and idk... i guess sell the sub for 200-250 and sub and box for 450. id prefer selling the box and sub together though since its paired with that sub. itd be hard for me to sell just the box to someone else.

[jcarter1885 995]

yeah that box is too wide for his trunk but appreciate it

[Doctor Q 12]

no problem.

[Doctor Q 12]

hey shizzzon,

im going to go ahead and order all my stuff for the new system the end of this week like friday so could you make a final thing for the box with dimensions and most importantly the port size and everything. Or if anyone knows a site i could do this so Shizzon doesnt have to.

If possible i want a plexiglass window but if not thats fine.

For the amp, these have been the ones i found. Which would you pick or if there is another one you think is better:

- Planet Audio AP800.4

- Autotek SM4-1000 (i havent heard much on autotek)

And thats all i found so far because im trying to keep costs down.

[jcarter1885 995]

get a sundown sax-100.4

Edited July 20, 2009 by jay-cee

[shizzzon 461]

u want a class d amp only so it draws the least power.

And an amp for what u want shouldnt cost no more than $212 shipped.

[Doctor Q 12]

get a sundown sax-100.4

that would only give me 160 per sub and its $315 which is more than i wanted to spend.

but since it is sundown that maybe like 180 or even 200 per channel which is good but still. i was looking more around 200 ish.
