Charger Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I still fail to understand how you're saving money by buying 6 $100 subs rather than one ~$400 sub and installing it in a box you obviously have no idea how to build or design powered by god knows what amps. But at the end of the day it IS your car, it IS your gear and you can install it however you like. There's really no point protesting the idea because you and your friends have obviously made up your mind so you will have a good learning curve. Keep us updated with how you go. I wouldn't go any less than 16 cubes net. for those woofers which means your gross box volume will have to be close to 20 cubes, how you plan to fit this in your car is beyond me. Good luck.

It sounds to me like he already has the subs, so 8 $0 subs < 1 $400 sub. even so MTX 4500's are by no means shitty. There are decent subs for the money, and I think he will be pleased given he has the room to build a proper box. Hopefully you aren't tring to fit this in a miata, or something.

fourlug Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 01xtreme you meant 8 $0 subs > 1 $400 sub =P By the looks of it you new to car audio from what you have posted.. When I see something like this, and think someone new to car audio may need some direction I'm gonna try and help out, ask why? Why are you getting 8 subs instead of a few more expensive ones? Why don't you try to design your own box first? I understand this is a forum and its his money and ultimately his decision, but we are here to help right? To gain and give knowledge. When I first got into car audio I WISH someone would have asked and tried to get me to learn before purchasing Then I wouldn't have wasted alot of money at a store with shitty prices on mediocre products. But that's outa the question because he's already bought what he has. Hell when I got my stuff I didn't understand ohms, what are you wiring it to? This is a great forum and Im definitely not trying to bash. Just wanna help the guy out, see what his budget and goals are, then help him decide what will give him optimal performance.

Torres Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 we want it all to sound good for him and everything...but in all reality i bet when 90% of people got into car audio with their FIRST setup they probably messed with settings and all this and that, am i right? not saying this is his first setup, but why not just help him out with the questions he asked, help him build the box, and see if he's happy with how it sounds? i'd rather mess up speakers i already have, instead of buying newer nice ones and messing those up. when people talk about wanting to get into it, i always tell them to start small. sold this kid 2 JL w3's with an amp. all settings were set PERFECT. 2 days later he blows the speakers. not saying he is oblivious to what he's doing...just saying we should help him with the box and only the box. if he has more questions, we can answer them. and rcmobile, might wanna start a new thread. that could get lengthy and that way you can focus on all the replies yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great forum and Im definitely not trying to bash. Just wanna help the guy out, see what his budget and goals are, then help him decide what will give him optimal performance. What I was trying to say is that it seems to me that the OP already has the subs he is talking about, and was asking for different options he has for installing the subs. I dont see anywhere in his post asking for input on whether he should run the 8 subs, as opposed to x number of higher quality subs, and yet you guys still feel the need to tell him he should buy better stuff. I was just making a comment towards the fact that the first few people did nothing to answer his question, but instead felt it was their need to "educate" him. Maybe I am just missing something, but when people ask questions on a forum I tend to answer their question, not make suggestions that dont help and ad further confusion. just my .02 we want it all to sound good for him and everything...but in all reality i bet when 90% of people got into car audio with their FIRST setup they probably messed with settings and all this and that, am i right? not saying this is his first setup, but why not just help him out with the questions he asked, help him build the box, and see if he's happy with how it sounds? i'd rather mess up speakers i already have, instead of buying newer nice ones and messing those up. when people talk about wanting to get into it, i always tell them to start small. sold this kid 2 JL w3's with an amp. all settings were set PERFECT. 2 days later he blows the speakers. not saying he is oblivious to what he's doing...just saying we should help him with the box and only the box. if he has more questions, we can answer them. and rcmobile, might wanna start a new thread. that could get lengthy and that way you can focus on all the replies yourself X2. that is what I have always believed. You cant educate someone against their will. just help them with what they are asking. If I were there to help him with something else I would definately step in before something got messed up, but other than that I would let them learn from experience.
