I just used a hammer to give the VT cage a shunt in all 4 directions, and then riveted the Head Units cage in place. You can then use the Hu's clips to lock it in place. It becomes easily removable with the correct tool and secure as can be expected. VT cages are 3 mm too small for nearly...

The answer is NO. You dont need rear speakers either. Put all that extra money into great front splits and deadening and you will be very happy.

passive sucks... lol go active and forever forget about limited attenuation options!! It all depends on so many things its not funny. Its the last thing to tune, if your tweets are ripping your head off, and you dont have a powerful enough EQ, attenuation is the go. If your tweets...

You'd be best off with an Alpine monoblock for that, say a v-power MRD 400 or similar, can be had second hand between 250- 300 easily. What coils does the MTX have? you want at least 300 Watts RMS getting to it, and coil config will decide which amp can give you that 300.

The tuning frequency of a ported subbox is as low as you want the sub to play at 0Db you want roll off (-3 or 6Db or more if possible, using a subsonc filter can help here) under this as the sub will mechanically bottom out due to lack of acoustical suspension (air pressure behind the subs cone)...

Whoa boy! Set those gains correctly first!!! you will kill your subs otherwise, also make sure the load presented to the amp is within its safe range. When using 2 woofers, you need to know the voice coil configurations to tell exactly how to wire them properly, are they dual 2Ohm or...

Exactly arrow224, you are trying to create the illusion of a stage in front of you, in a car environment. Just like a live concert. You dont sit at the front of a concert and face the back do you? Why would you do this in a car? Some of the best sounding systems I have ever heard contained...

T/S parameters dont include Distortion figures, as they are irrelevant to enclosure design. The amplified signal needs low distortion obviously, but the speaker itself, or more correctly the cone of the speaker, creates its own distortion, and this far overshadows the disortion created by an...

Yeah its the amp. an internal cap is discharging unused amplified power and causing a low freq "thump" discharge on turn off. To troubleshoot, start with your earths, make sure if you have 4 guage power, you use a 4 guage earth and its to a clean unpainted part of the chassis. If you have...

pioneer Ts splits are decent enough, just not at their price point. For $300.00 there are much better choices to be made, and I'd choose carefully, as your splits play 75% of the music and are very important to your overall sound. try Boston, Hertz, MB Quart, Morel, DLS, Eton, Focal, Seas...

Definately mix and match your brands mate, there isnt one single company that produces every component with the same level of success. Fusion? I wouldnt touch anything of thiers other than the powerplant subs, and even then, only for SPL duties.

yeah you can. All you need is some tools, some bog and lots of sandpaper and paint and you can make anything fit anywhere. :)

On a budget, the Jaycar amps cannot be beaten, hands down. Eats Pioneer, Clarion , Kenwood etc, at the same pricepoint, for breakfast! Boss? or anything at all from ebay = scam and the need for a fire extinguisher as noted above, and some good earmuffs to protect your ears from the hideous...

Changing speakers will yield a far greater performance enhancement anyway. Once you have a great amp, with good clean power, the features you NEED, good service from the supplier and so on, differences between the brands kinda fades into insignificance when speakers are brought into the...

You can build a custom FG box for around 100 bux, to match the subs T/S specs exactly and have the best of both worlds. just requires a little FG knowledge (not hard to get really, just plunge right in) and the correct thiele /small parameters for the sub. The difference in SQ from building a...

Yeah def a starter motor problem I would think. Did you wire the constant and switched power to the Screen or Head unit running it? If you havent wired it switched (accessories) it *may* be draining the battery a little, although I'd start at fixing the starter motor first and...
