    Polk??

    ok so cliping is when you push your amp to hard and **** happens pretty much :p thanks for that info. im leaning toward a ported box cos i really want to make the most out of the sub. so playing this sub at 2 ohms 400rms will be fine cos its rated at 100-500rms single 2 ohms. i found this page...

    help me! i know very little about car audio but really want to learn :)

    ok cool, so that single 2ohm 12" JL sub is a good fit for my amp then? well im a mutt wen it comes to music haha. i listen to all kinda of music from heavy rock, dance, electronic, hip/hop, rap and anything with nice bass tones to show off the sub :p would you recomend ported or sealed? and...

    help me! i know very little about car audio but really want to learn :)

    yeah i saw that one but because it is a D4 sub wouldnt that mean i would be over powering it but 100 rms @ 2 ohm? and yeah, its all about rms, not this stupid peak power bs haha. which jl sub are you talking about, this one? Sound Master Car Audio - ($787) JL Audio 12W6V2 12inch Subwoofer 12W6V2...

    help me! i know very little about car audio but really want to learn :)

    thanks for all the help guys. do you recomend going for the single input subs (single 4 ohm/2 ohm) or the dual input subs (dual 4 ohm in my case so i can achieve 400rms @ 2ohm) i would like to make the most out of the amp becasue i did spend a fair bit. im not sure about what sub i actualy want...

    a few questions about lowering

    if your going SL then you shouldnt have any issues with wheels touching anything. im assuming your wheels are 8" wide which will clear the wheel arch no problem at all, unless you have some crazy huge 12" wide wheels or something haha. my car has 18x8" SSz wheels and has been lowered to lowest...

    maximum volume is crap...

    the factory HU is only good for being a resting point for dust in my garage. switched it out with an alpine unit and my god was the sound quality and loudness improved. and this is still with the stock speakers. switch those out and you will have amazing audio quality :)

    Intermittent ignition problems

    i have heard that sometimes that little metal nipple next the the T bar of the key doesnt make good contact with the metal ring around the ignition when you insert and turn the key, and this will cause your car to not start? i think its meant to be a safety feature to make it harder for people...

    Blew my speakers

    seeing as you drive a car with stock front plits, why not upgrade the whole front speaker package while you are at it? the type R front splits arent to much more and you will get much nicer and cleaner sounding hi's from your speakers, as well as hearing an improvement in your mid and lows?
