I wish I knew what a bright tweeter was and how to tell if one is bright or not.

Well these are the RFs I've had my eye on. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_18207_Rockford-Fosgate-P1652-S.html

What's scary about them?

http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_28905_SPL-SPC-60.html I'm thinking of doing a bit of an upgrade and those look pretty decent. I'm geared towards them for the price. If I didnt think they were a decent deal, I'd just save up for the RF components I like.

Thanks for the assistance. Greatly appreciated.

Would it fit? It's the one that matches the dimensions of my stock battery the closest. And while I have you all ready this, why is it that prices are not listed on the website? I've never been very keen to talking to someone over the phone. I prefer either face to face or ordering online.

If I could afford to just hop up and get one of those, I definitely would not be driving around in a shitty Escort with a $200 system...

I havent looked. Didnt think they could do that. Wont be able to check til tomorrow.

Just as the title says. I need to cut an odd angle (not 45) for an upcoming box build but dont have a table saw, or access to one. All Ive got access to is two jigsaws, a dremel, and assorted handsaws.

Sorry for thread jack but, I'm lookin for the same size, but of the punch variety preferred.

Found a couple I like. Wanna know you're opinions on them. Clarion VZ709 Clarion CZ500

This is the one I've had my eye on http://www.audiosavings.com/products/In-Dash-CD-Receiver-and-Monitor/BOSS-BV9960-7-MONITOR-DVD-CD-SD-RDS-PLAYER-RECEIVEREQ/BV9960+RB.aspx

I really want motorized, but how does it stream Pandora? Like, how does it connect? My friend has that head unit. It's pretty damn nice for the money. The USB is kinda slow to load, but the SD card is really fast and it still looks clean when you have an SD card in it. Not sure what it sounds like running speakers though, cuz he has a 4 channel for the speakers. It would only be powering my front door speakers for a month or so.

Hmm looks good. See what else y'all suggest.

Less than $500. But more than DIY. I found a nice looking one for around $200 but it's a BOSS and I know BOSS doesnt have a very good reputation around here, so yeah...

Figured I get a little easier to navigate results if I ask the people that wont offer a list of every HU out there. I'm looking for a quite specific HU with the following features: Single DIN at least 2 sets of RCAs >50wx4 RMS motorized touchscreen preferred Rear usb input preferred Pandora Radio support appreciated And for as little money as possible.

Volume in my trunk? I have a small-ish trunk. But I cant necessarily build this box exclusively for my trunk. Im being forced to pull it out in March cause da wifey dont want too much bump in the ride once our kid gets here. These are more like ideas for later, once we get a second vehicle for the family. That's when I'll take the time to do the serious mods to the mobile. Plus I'll need the trunk space for the baby stuff... And I already dont have much trunk... I'll probably wind up just pulling out my subs and connecting my components to my 4 channel and calling it good for a bit. I'm hoping to be able to acquire a new ride by the end of 2011.

??? Anybody?

Tune the 10" as low as you can for home theater, the lower the better, that means you won't need to put a subsonic filter on it. 13"s is fine, I'm guessing that these subs are pretty standard, so they probably have a mounting depth of 6" or so, add 2" or so for the wood, 3" for space under the box and it should fit. Well the 10 is an OLD MTX Terminator. Paper cone, cloth/foam surround. It's current condition is dented dustcap, surround torn in areas, rusty magnet...And so as for the 12s, 8in height before putting on the additional 3in and I have ~30in of width. All I dont have is depth and port size, any suggestions? And as for the home theater towers I have, I need to get new surrounds on the two 10s in them. And what effect does a dented dustcap have?

Well I have a total of three subs I'd like to try this with, one 10 (that is in need of severe repair) for a home theater and 2 12s that I wanna use in my car. Problem is that I only have about 13" for top to bottom clearance.

Well I'd hate to put out some money for 2 15" PR and they be too big. An AA SMD 18" does sound like it would make one hell of a home theater setup, but I definitely dont have that kind of money. And if I were to try it, I'd need help with the box. Never made a ported box, just sealed. I dont necessarily want loud, I want depth. I'd rather cause an earthquake before I cause hearing loss. And I've heard that fire down port forward can do that.

When i was looking through those truck pics, my first few thoughts were "we can rebuild, we have the technology" until I saw the interior shots and went straight to "holy shit on a stick it looks like hiroshima!"

I was just wondering if it would even work. I know that it wouldnt be very logical for subs with larger excursions, but for smaller subs that dont have huge excursion, it seems possible. But would it be probable? As in, what would the results sound be? Ive seen the concept in computer speaker systems, but those subs are tiny. Also, while I got y'all reading this, has anyone ever heard of a 14" passive radiator? I acquired a pair stereo towers that had all the components in them except the very bottom which is just a massive hole measuring 14". You can see mounting holes and everything. And there arent any additional wires inside the box that would go to a sub if it was there at one point.

By my count, 12:2.
