SAMZ Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 i currently have 1 pioneer 6 1/2s, and 1 pioneer tweeter in each door. I want to be super loud,and clear,i would like to have 1-2 subs in my car also, set to sq tho, so its not all bass. Ive been lookng at mids and highs, i love beyma but the price is alot, id have to save a bit, but then the seleniums are almost perfect for me. Selenium Vs Beyma is what it comes down to, then i gotta choose a good amp, i was thinking mbquart onx4.125, for tweets i was thinking selenium super tweet, crescendo supertweet there loud i heard em the other day id like my car to be llike this- i pretty new to this, ive only installed mids in highs in my boys car, it soounds awsome now, so i might need some help every now and then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundman72 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 the car in that link is not an SQ car....it's a rolling sound system lol- also, SQ doesn't equal loud. You simply needs drivers that will properly cover their respected ranges, play 100+ db without distortion, a proper signal path with the ability to tune the system correctly. Then you need to take it to some who can tune a system. seriously...half the ppl claiming SQ are laughable simply because 'they' tune it.....lol the fact that car audio 'guys', who subject their hearing to extreme levels of crap and distortion, claim to 'properly tune' their own system is bullshit. Show me the car audio 'tuner' who comes back from a hearing test with 100% hearing across the frq. band and then you can talk about tuning your system. Other than that, you will need a high quality RTA mic and metering software. You'll also need the knowledge to tune the system correctly, IE- what curve. Musical applications typically follow a certain slope, with the low end being roughly 5db higher than the high end. This results in a rich, warm sounding, musical system. I would treat the doors properly, treat the car acoustically, get the appropriate products to eq and crossover the signal path. And for SQ- a digital signal processor is a must. for half assed SQ at least a 31 band eq if not more. Without getting serious about SQ, you won't get sound quality. now go get'em!

White Lightning Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 My best help I could give is to go to a few sound quality competitions and see what the main stream products are being used and see what might fit your application ... And get a feel for sound quality "sound" cause stageing and imageing is much more application than just sounding good ... Just my suggestion here bro ... Best of luck to ya ... Thanks, Randal ...

White Lightning Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 James, I understand that you can build a 150 db capable machine that will stage and image ... We've done it ... But I don't think that this has anything to with the op's reason for this topic ... Atleast not with the equipment he is suggesting on running ... Samz ... Like I said bro ... Check to see what most SQ competitors are running and see what your application will bbe like compared to theirs ... And get a good feel for a stage and image before you start competing ... Let us know what you come up with ... Again, just a suggestion here bro ... Thanks, Randal ...
