Nicecar Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Yeah.. My car Please excuse the pics, these are from the day i got her. Since then she's had new spark plugs, a new tyre (front passenger one was bald), new wheel trims and a damn good wash. At the moment i have the standard front door speakers and 2 speakers in the parcel shelf. It's not bad to say i've spent nothing so far. Basically i'm 18, a massive audiophile and big fan of Mr. SMD himself, who's videos inspired me to build a real system for this thing, not just a boombox like you see in all the wannabe's cars. So here i am. I'm gonna get some pics up, some designs and ideas up and i'm gonna be doing a lot of brainstorming, hopefully all you guys can help me get my dream system More to follow...

Nicecar Posted April 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Okay so went out to get some pics and a video while it's still.. well only a little rainy. It aint gonna get better than this! Here she is in her current status, video soon if i can figure out how to upload it The awesome plate My stereo, it's not the top line model, i could do with USB/Aux input. Door cards, i'm thinking i'll just replace the speakers already there and seal it up a bit better, try to stop rattling. Possibly the most optimistic system ever? Sometimes i wonder what i was thinking. These speakers aren't actually that bad 150W rms each. Plugged into 45w channels on my stereo so handles it like it's nothing. Hmm, i wonder, AA SMD? Haha i'm thinking about speaker choices but i really need some measurements first AND: The video. Once it finishes uploading http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iUxLBGJQM8&feature=player_embedded The funny thing is that at the moment my room system is better quality. I have a modded 2.1 speaker system. I kept the sub but wired 2 DENON speakers in place of the satellites.

newls1 Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 um.... If it were me, I would run a pair of 10" AQ SDC's and a AQ1200D, that shit would sound clean. put a nice strong batt in the rear, and a run of 0/1g power/ground wires aswell Quote I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been eyeing up the AA arsenal's, a couple of those would look good either side of my boot? I think with what i wanna do a secondary battery is necessary, i want A-Pillar tweeters, some extra mids maybe too. The thing is that i want this to be a good learning process too so tell me if i'm talking bs Thanks Chris Quote 1997 Ford Fiesta Encore 4" rear speakers Standard ford front speakers Not for long, trust me!

Mrbubbles00482 Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 If skating is a big thing for you (noticed the board..) do some sort of 2-10" setup with a nice clean amp rack/board rack combination? Just throwing you some ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just throwing you some ideas. Yeah i was thinkin if i et some rockford fosgate or JL thin subs, i could tuck those away nicely and have 2 amps on a rock where the board is. Maybe i could do it slotted so i can put more than one board in at once need to find some ood 500w amps to show off first Quote 1997 Ford Fiesta Encore 4" rear speakers Standard ford front speakers Not for long, trust me!

Nicecar Posted May 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 Given it a polish and a wash. I also have a design (not to scale, in fact it's way off but it's just inspiration for now!!).

USLESS Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Given it a polish and a wash. I also have a design (not to scale, in fact it's way off but it's just inspiration for now!!). just my 2 cents but two separet boxes and sep ports may not work as aficent as one box and one port and this way would be eser to build less work when box is gettin built Quote my 94 ranger build http://www.stevemead...4-ranger-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
