dereileak Posted September 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 ALRIGHT, My Weekend is done, and what a weird fun weekend it was!!! Got very little done, but here is what I did. Unfortunately there are gonna be no pictures or video until I fix this My phone decided it would like to fall down the good ol' lazyboy and totally smash the lcd panel, so im ordering a new front lcd and housing. Got my Mechman Alternator in, its beautiful, a deep dark red in color, tested at 120 idle and 223amps max, got the new power and ground leads to it also!! Also the Carbon Fiber Vinyl and my Milwaukee Circular sander came in the mail so I can finish the back box and get the amps in!!!! 2006 Mazda3 Hatchback Black 5 Spd ManualPioneer 4300DVD2 Sundown SA-12 (34hz Tune, 3.22 cubes, 14.5 inches per cube, Triple Baffle)Kicker 10ZX2500.1 (2845 RMS) Sub AmpKicker 11ZX650.4 (705 RMS) Mid Amp -- (3 Amps)Kicker KQ3 Active CrossoverKicker KQ30 EqualizerKicker 09QS60.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones)Kicker 09QS65.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones) - (3 Sets)2/0 Gauge Electron Beam Technologies (3 Runs, 2 +, 1 -) 1/0 Gauge KNU Kollasal Flex (1 Run for -) 300 Ft Kicker X-Series 16 Gauge Speaker WireXS Power D3400 (Rear)XS Power D3100 (Front)Singer Externally Regulated Alternator (Being Built)+ The Love for Car Audio and BASS <3UBL Build Log <------- Click Here-------> Normal Build Log (For Comments) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Chris Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 First off, I love the car (Mazda's are sick) and I'm sure that system is going to hit harder than $#!+ ! I'm just curious though... Why so many X-overs ??? Don't your amps + your HU already have some built in X-overs ? I can see needing maybe 1 or 2 more, for a complicated setup, but just as an example, I'm running two 15"s, four 8"s, (soon to be) four mids, and four tweets, in a 3 way active + passive system, all with 'zero' additional X-overs. I'd be a little bummed if I had to add a stand alone X-over. The only extra hard ware I'd prefer, would be more amps, and more speakers..... and even so, if I can get a 4ch to do the same work of two 2ch, that's all the better. Anxious to see the results though. Peace, Fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I love mazda's too, this car is my baby My headunit does have a crossover, but nothing beats a physical crossover, plus quick access to the settings right on my ceiling!! Also the headunit doesnt have the crossover that I would use for the tweets, as mine have to be set at about 2800 hz for the tweets/mids Really Chris I have the 1 active 3 way crossover on the ceiling, then it goes to the amps which will not use the crossovers on there, and then to the passive crossovers, which really dont hurt anything, they will provide a passive crossover, but they are being wired up to be biamped, so the tweets will be on there own amp, and the mids will share 2 amps, and the subs will have 1 amp, so really its actively crossover once, then passively once, but it wont really be using the passive because it will be crossed over at the same point the passives would do it, so it should turn out awesome, also these passive crossovers have protection for the tweets in them so they dont get too much juice and die 2006 Mazda3 Hatchback Black 5 Spd ManualPioneer 4300DVD2 Sundown SA-12 (34hz Tune, 3.22 cubes, 14.5 inches per cube, Triple Baffle)Kicker 10ZX2500.1 (2845 RMS) Sub AmpKicker 11ZX650.4 (705 RMS) Mid Amp -- (3 Amps)Kicker KQ3 Active CrossoverKicker KQ30 EqualizerKicker 09QS60.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones)Kicker 09QS65.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones) - (3 Sets)2/0 Gauge Electron Beam Technologies (3 Runs, 2 +, 1 -) 1/0 Gauge KNU Kollasal Flex (1 Run for -) 300 Ft Kicker X-Series 16 Gauge Speaker WireXS Power D3400 (Rear)XS Power D3100 (Front)Singer Externally Regulated Alternator (Being Built)+ The Love for Car Audio and BASS <3UBL Build Log <------- Click Here-------> Normal Build Log (For Comments) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Chris Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 My headunit does have a crossover, but nothing beats a physical crossover, Yea', I've wondered about this myself. I know that stand alone X-overs often provide steeper slopes. I "think" mine sounds good..... but without having compared it to a stand alone x-over, how would I really know for sure ? Oh hey, one other thing.... I saw on your list of stuff, the 30 band EQ !!! That looks bad-a$$ ! I'd love to get one of those to be able to shape, tweak, and smooth out my whole sound spectrum ! I was just looking at those a few days ago...... I might end up having to get one of those in the future myself. Peace, Fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
