Smoove

I like the new site except the fact they removed all of the old support and forum section.

Recording it on my DVR. I wish I was going. Hoping to make it to SEMA this year instead.

Since we all agree now I am going build the box today.

How's this look.

Working on the photobucket. But the amp is old school like 2003 punch not power.

I haven't built a box in 15yrs. The box is gonna house 2 rockford HE2 8's D4. I am gonna push shem with a Rockford 500.2 bridged to 500 @ 4ohm. I am going subs facing up and port back. The box will sit where the center console of my my Ext cab 96 Chevy C1500 Truck is. Here is a link for the speaker specs http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/library/2000/5_Subwoofers/LIT10683_DVCwoofers_MAN.pdf Box specs http://www.myhooptie.com/gallery1/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=86329&g2_imageViewsIndex=1&g2_navId=xc0a626b7 What is the trick to posting an image? That would make this easier

Nice work.

Thats what I was thinking. SA 8 V2 . I think you are still able to do a pre-order at $135 a piece. That or just do 2 SA 8 v.2

I have had them on craigslist since my post and have not had a single inquiry. (Posted 28 December 2011 - 10:42 AM)

So I have a 200amp Powermaster Alt. BIG 3 is done. I will have about 3300watts total for all amps. I have an Optima Redtop up front and plan on putting a D3100 in the back. Should I use the stinger battery isolator I already purchased? Or do should I run fused battery to battery without the isolator?

Holy craziness. I forgot I had one of those pushing my Pyramid 6x9's in my 78 Dodge clubcab truck.

As others have said it's all about budget. And if you have the budget I say Fosgate all day.

I quit trying to find book. I am taking this class to get some hands on training. http://www.mobilesolutions-usa.com/seminars/subwoofer.htm

Time to go to Lowes and get me some Great Stuff. I am gonna do a little at a time.

I have seen a lot of guys using spray foam to stop rattling or fill gaps. I had a friend use the triple expanding foam in his trunk lid and it warped it. Is there a best brand to use so I don't warp sheet metal?

StrongmanDesigns has 2 1000bd fosgate amps in the for sale section. All you will is one of them and you will have more power than you for a good price. Search the for sale section. there are plenty of great deals.

Seems like everyone here uses battery's. So if they test good then they go on ebay for like $30 each

If they are rated like the 500bd than they are rated at 2ohm.

Digging through my garage I found 2 never used Lightning Audio 1 Farad Caps. Can a Cap go bad just sitting around for years (at least 7yrs) like a battery can?? I am trying to figure out if I should sell them cheap or just throw them out.

I haven't put the 3 way JL's in the Truck yet. But I believe I am gonna replace 2 ways in the Z with a 3 way set. Any recommended 3 ways around $300.

I definitely want the system to sound as clean as possible. I know my 2 way infinities in my 350z sound like they are lacking something so I might have to replace them with a 3 way. But the truck has a rumbly exhaust. (yes it is deadoned all the way around). Is a 3 way worth it when in a truck with throaty exhaust.

Crazy, that thread didnt show up in my thread. Since there seems to be no hard answer on which way is preferred. I am gonna do glass my doors and stick with the JL 3 ways I already picked up. Trying to figure out if I should use them in my ext cab truck or sell and go 2 way.

I have searched and not really found anything stating which is better. 2 way components or 3 way components? And why would I choose one over the other?
