lol...I don't think you should be chiming in with your Infinity 6x9's, Kenwood tweets, and wasted money on a cap...but you did.

It ain't a 10...it's a 12...750 RMS. Maculent has the 10's. And if you know anything about car audio...you would know that it ain't a matter of how many or what size subs you have...it's the install.

You hit 125 db with two 12's...I did 137 with my 1. But I already explained that I don't compete anymore...so it's not that important to me.
The Kenwood tweets are weak, I already said that. Wasted money on the cap? It was free, and the install was free.

137 db with your eclipse 10 and your throw back red onion amp.
Sure guy....

Dude...what are you talking about? Your whole system is weak! The only thing worth a damn is the Diamond Audio amp. The rest is garbage and a waste of money. I can see why the install was free...they already ripped you off with everything else you paid for.

You don't read very well do you...? Nevermind, why ask...it's obvious that you don't.

Let me say it again...it is not a 10. It is an Eclipse Ti 12. If you do a search, I've talked about 'em before. And the amp is an Elemental Design Nine.1. You runnin' a what...? Talk about crap.....

lol...and I don't care if you don't believe what I hit...I competed for 10 years...I ain't new to this. I could care less about impressing some guy who doesn't know squat.

But hey...think what you want Mr. I'm cool with my THX movie theatre wiring.....

I still get annoyed when these little ass kids got there best buy subs with their circuit city amps and think they got some quality shit I'm like nigga please lol your first mistake was you showed up there, your second mistake was you bought the product from there and your third and final mistake was you had them do the install which means you are most likely running at a 4ohm load instead of a 1ohm mono load with the mono amp.

ThePrez - Nice set up. That equipment in a more compact car would hit hard, but I just cant picture that ride holding that much bass.QUOTE]


Probably not, anything in a trunk sounds worse than an open SUV


To be honest with ya'll... it actually can pay off to have 2 different brand subwoofers in your whip. I know that a lot of speakers can hit hi and low bass better than others. My boy has had these 12' Memphis audios that he just will not get rid of for some reason. Hes passed up Rockfords and Audiobahns to keep 'em.

I would probably like Audiobahns for hi bass hits, and definately JL for the low bass.

Kenwood actually dont do too bad in their Sub game neither.

I had the audiobahn Aw1200Q subs and the best song to test if your shit can hang was Andre Nickatina - Killa Whale. If your hand could hang with this and subs at a decent volume and you could hear the words...then and only then were you banging.

That just doesn't sound like a good idea.

Sure...subs are different...that's exactly why it wouldn't be a good idea. You would have one sub hittin' lower than the other...that would sound pretty shitty.

That's cause Memphis makes some awesome subs. If he has the Mojo's...your boy is smart to keep those.

No-one should ever have Kenwood subs...ever.

@Gimpy

It's like your ego is connected to your sorry "system". I wouldnt even consider your setup anything more than a "packaged deal" that you get out of the penny saver. Solo barics 12's are junk? Compared to your one Elcipse 12 (which looks like a 10), OK. 2.4 Farid Cap junk? Compared to your non existant cap (which is obviosuly not needed since your 10 doesnt pull that much, think about it, seriosuly). An amp that pushes twice the RMS yours does is junk?
Ha, you are hilarious.

Since you are so fixated on money (why, I dont know) but this THX wire goes for a buck a foot. How much is your monster cabling? $8 for a 100ft?

Talk about your past all you want. I did this and that for x amount of years, back in the day. Now I have a family bs. It's about what you have now, not what you had. What I have now, will drown out what you have now. Simple as that...

714...just stop...really. You have no idea what you are talking about.

No...solo's are not junk. I was being harsh cause you came out of left field at me...but compared to an Eclipse Ti...yeah, it is. Doesn't matter what it looks like...it's a 12.

My cap is non-existant cause it's not needed. That's what a 200 amp alternator is for...didn't think about that, did you dipshit. Nothing beats upgrading your alternator...but you keep on thinkin' that cap is the shit. And only morons think that just cause an amp puts out more wattage, it's better. If that was case, everyone would be buying up Sluger's...Oh...I mean Lanzar's.

I didn't say anything about money...did I? Did I say I had Monster cable? There are many other brands out there you know. But since you bring it up...money doesn't matter...and spending a buck a foot on cable doesn't matter either. Again...only morons think that way.

I brought up me competing cause you seem to think I'm full of shit. When in fact, it's the opposite. And you may be louder...not if your hittin' 125db, but let's say that you are...big deal! I'm not into being the loudest guy on the block anymore. If you would read for once, you would see that my set-up is for SQ.

But you're right...you would probably drown me out with that garbage ass sounding music.

You probably do know more about sound systems than I do, I don't do it for a living nor could I even be a sales rep in an audio store. I agree, SQ over bass. I dont even bump my system, unless someone next to me is trying to show off, then I mash em.

Regardless if you believe me or not, the system hits hard and I have never heard anyone else on the street have a system that hits harder. It's not like I have the most bangin system on the planet, but I do believe that it is a really good one. If you think it's trash, then so be it. I like the Infinities since they have better highs than others that I have heard. That's all my 6x9s do, are highs and minor mids.

I just found it odd that you were clownin Mr. Prez's system, then mine, and telling everyone what is good like everything you say is pure fact, and then not having a very bomb system yourself (I know you go for SQ). Yet, it is like me clowning on someones 2003 Lambo for speed, and I have an Accord but keep talking about stability. That is bascially what you are doing.

If you have any suggestions to my system, then feel free to share so I can take them into consideration. Seriously, if there is anything you think I can do to my system to make it better then I am all ears. I am always open to positive criticism.

@714...I don't think what you have is trash. I was just giving you a hard time. I felt that you came at me wrong...and like I said before...sometimes I get a little carried away. When you put this many years into something...you tend to take it seriously...maybe too seriously.

As for Prez...I felt that he needed to be brought back down to earth a little bit. He was being cocky saying that he would blow everyone away. You said that my ego was connected to my system, but I didn't come in here saying my stuff was the best or that it sounded better than everyone else.

You can say that I don't have a "bomb" system, but there is more to car audio...the number of subs you have...that's only one aspect. I have one quality sub...and the real money is invested in high quality speakers. Again...you can say that isn't "bomb", but to me...it is.

I see what you're sayin' with the Lambo reference, but the reason I give my opinion is cause I've been there...done that. I've seen and heard just about everything. And just cause i don't own it now...doesn't mean I never did.

In the end, it's all opinion...I'm only 1 person. Everyone has their own taste in what they like. SPL, SQ...people need to look outside of what's at their local audio store. There are so many decent brands that get over-looked.

Okay...this is turning into a freakin' novel...I'll give suggestions later.

Image Dynamics has a kick ass looking/Sounding sub according too GimpyPimp. The IDMAX D2 V3 which looks like this



Nominal Impedance (IMP) 1 / 4 ohms
DC Resistance (Re) .95 / 3.8 ohms
Resonant Frequency (Fs) 20.3Hz
Electrical "Q" (Qes) .424
Mechanical "Q" (Qms) 2.02
Total "Q" (Qts) .35
Equivalent Volume (Vas) 5.71 ft3
One Way Linear (Xmax) 24.6 mm
Cone Area (Sd) 545 cm2
Sensitivity (Spl) 88.5 dB
RMS Power Handling (Pwr) 200 to 1000
Speaker Displacement .12 ft3



Like GimpyPimp I have been into systems for a long as time and heard about almost everything out there. I got my first system in 1996 in modesto,ca at AUDIO PROS on McHenry. They were some what I thought tight Punch XLC subs lol. Ya when you start off with shit then work your way up you tend too know what to stay away from after 10yrs of being into car audio. Sad when you become so picky you cant afford what you want because life is more important lol. These subs are like 450 a peace! but seem too win the IASCA competitions every year.
