raytard Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 that t8004 is gonna be the deciding factor, cuz that thing throws out silly wattage. power components are loud and clear, real crisp sound with good mids, nothing mind blowing, but solid clear all around speakers the kicker ss, i dont feel like they have much mids, they are loud and clear, but mostly higher up on the frequencies. looking at your sig, youre running fanatiq 4/tweet center? and the blown down low in kick? and 6x9 in rear? So im assuming its bridged to 2ohm on front stage and each speaker is getting about 50rms. Look into pioneer d or c series components, i love them, and we've had them being beat to death by a punch50 in our work van for like 5 years now (d's) and theyre still loud, crisp, and clear. my .02, a lot of audio is preference, try and listen to cars with the speakers you're looking for.

AI James Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 diamonds a pretty reputable company. its kinda far fetched that they just are totally unreliable build wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forevrbumpn Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 gains set to high, treble to high, gain on the crossovers set at 0 not -3 or -6 (or whatever the Diamonds use) even them subs could be a factor, pounding away on sensitive little tweeters can be damaging to the tweeters Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

loganberry Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 diamonds a pretty reputable company. its kinda far fetched that they just are totally unreliable build wise. x2, my brother has the biggest 4 channel amp that diamond makes on 4 sets of 6.5 hex components he plays them loud, long and hard and they sound as good as day 1, hes had them for almost a year great sets of components they are Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
