Car Audio Always on the mind


Recommended Posts

I am always thinking about car audio. Always wondering what stuff I can do next & how I can get louder. I just cant get it off my mind. even at work, it helps me pass time when I think about teh bass. I have bass mekanik on my phone In my last college english class all my assignments were about audio & my computer stays on the forum so that I can check it whenever I have some free time.

Current System:

Pioneer 6900 HU

Front Stage: (for now)

Soundstream tarantula 5.25 in the doors

Soundstream tarantula 4x6 in the dash

Kenwood 400.4 for mids & highs

Bass:

4 Soundstream RW-12's

2 Power Acoustik Stax 4000/1D's

single chamber box, 2.65 cubes.

Currently under the knife being bagged

Funny you say that, when I was finishing college I had to go thru an office 03 class and powerpoint was one of the things we had to do. I did the whole thing on DB Drag and people loved it plus I got an A lol

haha, car audio is worse than meth about the addictions

every sence i hurd music n figured out were it came from ive been hooked, i think ive been playin with audio in general for about 13yrs n i love it, i think its the part of hooking things up n watching them work n enjoying it is the big thing, i love gettin behind some punk kids with there cheap stuff n i just play midbass n there like :shok: then i turn the subs on n doors start moveing n shit only on vol 10 lol, i love bass

i guess that were on the subject :rolleyes: when u set a amp by ear (i dnt own a o-scope but ill get one sometime) do u want subs to kinda sorta peak in bass at a higher volume?

my headunit only goes to 40 but its more of a sq deck with 6.5v preouts so i dnt really need 62 levels of volume for it to get loud, but its hard to set amps by ear o meter cause some songs are louder than others, but then theres mids n highs, midbass, then subs

why im asking this is on some songs the lil bulbs on my xovers like to light up a lil, i unno if its cause of the power im feedin em or wut, my amp does 150rms @2ohm n they get hella loud but i unno if i can turn the amp up anymore, i got front rcas set to -10gain, -12db/oct, 160htz and i unno wut to do with midbass, there ran from rear rcs, my headunit can run all active but i dnt have enough good amps to do it with, but i want it to get to its limits and still sound good

oh, and if ur gunna run active with a comp set n coax's would u disconect the tweet part from the coax n wire that tweet with comp set tweet to a amp n then both mids to a amp?

n if im runnin 8's as midbass how would i setup an eq to work with 6&1/2's and 8's?

my headunit will do the same thing a rf 360 will but i unno how to do it with amps

haha see how this shit is addiciting? :tease:

is it bad when ur dreaming about hookin stuff up? :01nocomment8so:

i feel everyone's pain here. car audio is on my mind almost all day long. it doesnt help that my friends are into car audio either. we're always talking about what we want to do to our cars, what we want to try next, when we are going to find time to work on our on-going projects, etc. its a horrible addiction lol
