  1. My box depth is 5.5" and i plan on adding some polyfill to my box. Will polyfill behind the motor be an issue or should i put the polyfill around the sub instead of behind it? I want to make sure it can vent properly
  2. I dont mind components and ive thought of going that route again. I had the image synamics ctx65cs and loved tjem. But this go around im on a budget. And i figured with the 6 1/2's and 5 1/4's its more surface area. The reason for two different sizes is because i cant fit 6 1/2's at the top how i want to do my doors. I seen a guy who did his doors this way and it was fairly cheap and effective. Substage is 2 skar vd 12's
  3. Anybody have a set they can give some feedback on? Thinking of running a 6 1/2" and 5 1/4" in each door. Looking mainly for clear and decently loud. They will be amped (eventually)
  4. It has to be sealed. Soundqubed likes ported boxes. I just ordered 2 vd 12's. Now going to shop for an amp
  5. I cannot invert them its a downfire truck box. Ill probably just go with the vd series
  6. I dont want this to be a vs thread. Im looking into the ivx 12 and vd 12. My box is .95 cubic ft before displacement. So im hoping after sub displacement and some polyfil the sub will think its in about .95- 1. If i go with the ivx i will have to make a spacer since my depth is only 5.5". Even without the polyfill i will still be within specs of sealed box. But my concern is the sub not venting properly if its right against the box? On the other hand if i get the vd sub i wont have to make a spacer but ill be a little low on volume. Only by like .5 which i doubt is audible. I dont have my amp yet as i was waiting till i decide on subs. Im sure ill be happy either way but am i over looking anything? Or ami just making things complicated?
  7. Do yall have a time frame of when a black friday ad will be out?
  8. i have 24ft of kicker hyper flex 1/0 power wire. plus i have an additional piece about 3ft long and a fuse holder with another piece about 1ft long and a stinger 300 amp fuse. $100 shipped.
  9. well i been looking around at getting boat trailer for a while and well if you dont know anything about them basic price is around $600 at academy for a cheap one but only holds 600-700lbs. for about $1000 i can get one rated for 1000lbs.the boat im looking at ways 500lbs no motor no nothing basically. but i found a utility trailer for $250 and its rated for 1200lbs.all id have to do is get a piece of square tubing to extend the tongue, that would run like an extra $150 for the tubing.and then id just have to make bunks for the boat to sit on which is the easy part,so for like $400-$500 i could have my boat trailer. what do you guys think?
  10. might be your guage, the needle in my blazer fluctuates (sp?) and thats with the big 3 a 270xp dc alt and no accesories as of right now. and i pulled it straight out of my silverado and it always sat at 14.8 in my silverado
  11. talk to 99s10walled he's got 4 in i think a 11 cubic ft wall putting up great numbers
  12. just sold one of these myself. great amps.very powerful,good luck with sell
  13. well right now i have the ctx65cs components and i love them.but i need to bring my soundstage up so im thinknig the 4x6's cause they'll go in no problem.but i can do a lil modding and fit 5 1/4's so my question is wil the 5 1/4's be that much louder. i want it to sound good and im scared with the 5 1/4s they might be a lil to loud and i'll have to turn them down there for defeating the purpose if that makes sense
  14. yep.made sure he hooked them up and jammed on them before i bought them.plus gave them the sniff test.later tonight im gonna take the cover off and look at the insides.i was kinda skeptical about buying them at that price but when i asked the guy if i bought both if he could cut me a deal. he was like yea 2 "300" watt amps how about $200 out the door.
  15. yea i seen online there hasnt been a birthsheet yet for less than 800 watts,now i just need to hurry up and decide what speakers to run so i can put them to use.
  16. thats actually the plan (kinda)i was about to bite the bullet and spend $400 on an arc amp for 180rms x 2 @4ohms or an image dynamics amp for the same power but now for half the price i got twice the power.still deciding on what components to run.i wanna try active and pro audio but cant see spending the money for an experiment when i kno i can spend the same money on components and be happy
  17. well luckily pawnshops rate there amp by wattage and a 300 watt amp isnt worth much so he cut me a deal and picked up both amps for $200 out the door
  18. well i was strolling around the pawn shop and they happen to have 2 t3002 amps in great condition and are asking $129 a piece. i know there rated at 50x2 but most birthsheets i see are around 180-225 rms x2 @ 4 ohms which is what im lookin for 150rms + for my image dynamic comonents.plus i know rockford has good sq and $250 is better then $400 i was gonna spend on an arc 300.2 or image dynamics amp
  19. well i guess ill give that one a shot.like i said ive got 20% off of it so as long it lasts a year or two ill be happy i just wanna learn how to weld
  20. just get a cheap set of white leds and tap off the cigarette lighter or off the switched wire on the radio,place one on each side of the cluster.
  21. well ive got a 20% coupon for harbor freight and ive been eyeballin some of the welders for a while now.i kno there not the best but im not gonna be welding anthing major.i really just wanna get one to learn how to weld.it wouldnt be for anything thick the thickest thing would be some some thin angle iron to a piece of 3/16" trailer tongue. im just curious as to what would be better cause i know nothing about welding heres a few i was lookin at http://www.harborfreight.com/welding/arc-welders/80-amp-inverter-arc-welder-91110.html http://www.harborfreight.com/welding/mig-flux-welders/120-amp-230-volt-mig-and-flux-welder-97503.html http://www.harborfreight.com/90-amp-flux-wire-welder-98871.html http://www.harborfreight.com/welding/tig-arc-welders/240-volt-inverter-arc-tig-welder-66787.html
