I was just wondering, what kind of stereo systems does everyone have? Head unit, subs, amps, speakers, etc.

I just order 2 12" Kicker Solo Baric L7's and a Blaupunkt Sacramento head unit. All for a good price, too.

And yes I do know for some people, systems are nothing more than added weight.

I have a kenwood kdc-x869 deck(lovem), Kenwood 4 channel 640watt amp for my mids and highs, Rockford Fosgate 1100a2 for my sub(the old skool ones, can you say power hog), 12'' rockford Fosgate hx2 in a rhino lined ported box(man does that thing rattle the fuck out of my car), Logic 6x9's,a and audio pipe 6.5 components. It bumps like hell and sounds clear.

i got a clarion hu, jbl 6 1/2 out back and blaupunkt 6 1/2 in front. For subs Im running 2 pheonix digital 12" squares (the only solo baric knock off i think is any good.. well sorth the 39 dollars a piece) in a custom built by me box powered buy a mono block 800 watt rms audiobahn intake series amp. I have the subs about 6-8 inches under the hatch window... hit like crazy...

in the future.. imma switch to 2 actual kicker l7 12's, getting a set of spl 6.5 coponents for front, dont know what kind yet but i will put some 6x9's out back.. and im getting a audiobahn intake series 400 watt rms (100x4 rms) 4 ch to power them...

this seams like as good a place as any to ask. sorry if i hijack the thread. does anybody know of a good site that talk about the differences in sound between sealed/ported/bandpass boxes? im planning on doing a custom fiberglass enclosure eventually but i dont know what the different types sound like. im not looking for a really loud system just want some more kick in the bass end. ill probably use either a 8 or 10 since i heard that at lower power in a car 8 or 10s will sound better and because they'll take up less space.
Thanxs

I think the JL site does a good bandpass explanation, but it's been a while.

I have an Alpine mp3, stock infinity speakers, rockford amp, and JL 15'' or infinity 12'' depending on what mood im in.

www.sounddomain.com (http://www.sounddomain.com) has a forum, I'm sure you can find some good explanations there.

i have envy, my stereo got jacked a while ago. and i have a crappy one in there rite now.

Yeah, mine was stolen in like may or something. I tried getting the money back for it but Geico found every loophole in their system to not pay me the money. Those punks wanted to steal my whole car, but the irresponsible garage never tightened my intake cam so it went right back there after it didn't start. Maybe they'll realize that a car is sitting outside of a shop for a reason. Assholes.:iceslolan

right now i have a pioneer deh-p8400 hu, eclipse 8808 pro-comp aluminum cone subs and a rockford fosgate amp (well had the amp till i shorted it out). i hope to be getting a kenwood 915 hu and another rockford amp. maybe even some 12 inch eclipse subs

I have the stock headunit with a cheap Dual amp and a cheap Pioneer $30 12" sub. The whole setup cost me about $130 new, including the line-out adapter, and it sounds just fine for my tastes :).

I was thinking about doing all eclipse audio on my car. I just thought it would be funny to be running all eclipse in an eclipse.:icon16: But I like the way the L7's sound.

2 Audiobahn 10's with Logic amp. Sorry I don't know all the specs. I think its a 800 watt amp. Everyone thinks I have 12's though :smokin:

I have 2 10" Kenwoods, Pioneer head unit, and road gear(from wally world)6x9's, and 1400W PYLE amp. Im in the process of building my fiberglass enclosure and ordering about 4 more 10" Kenwoods.

are those road gear speakers any good? i know they were pretty cheap. i almost bought a set to throw in real quick before i went on a trip because my stocks were blown. i ended up throwing a set of 6 1/2 jbl's my cousin had in there instead..

dont shop at walmart for subs

:iagree:

i have to rockford he2's 12's with a rockford 1200 watt amp kicks ass

Stock infinity system! woot!

There actually really good if you dont have an external power source running to them (i.e. Amp, Crossover .etc) There clear on sound too. Best 25 bucks i spent in a while.

CrutchField has a decent explination of the pros and cons.

Sealed has the best thump/sound but needs more power.

Ported is more effecient, but lacks clarity. Bandpass is somewhere in the middle.

Also if you are building you're own: http://www.ajdesigner.com/speaker/index.php

One other thing, Build with particle board, (Small fibers) and glass over. The dense wood is better at preventing that loose, rattleing terrible response that is simlual to taking the baffles out of a bass drum. Hint, if you're into hip hop, this may be your ticket, but if you expect sound quality, go sealed, with dense wood.

right now...
i have 2 6x9s i don't even remember what brand...
getting a 6.5 adire componet set in the summer

amps- a sony 400 watt 4 channel highs amp
power acoustic2400 monoblock
hu- sony cdx-m800 hu soon to be replaced with a panasonic CQDF-802U
sub- orion h2 15
(no box for the h2 yet.)

I have a stock system..its pretty bad ass!

i got 2 12 sony exploads with a 1200 wat amp :-/

my 15' audiobahn got jacked from my car last summer. Right now ive got stock sound with kenwood head unit.

But ive got 2 10' polk mm10s in my truck with an infinity 400 watt amp. Its good for how small everything is.

my 15' audiobahn got jacked from my car last summer
Damn those are expensive. Just for them to get jacked like nothing. damn criminals.

seriously having your shit get jacked sux...

lol yeah. it wasnt to bad i got the sub and a 1500 legacy amp together for 300 bucks. What sucked was that they smashed the back window YES the huge back window. Also broke into my truck and took the cd player and F'ed up the dash pretty bad.

i got 2 jl w7's with 1800e mono block amp fosgate capasster

imtheoneandonlyD

How did the 1 15 sound? I know the 2 10's sound awsome in my car.

on my car one audiobahn bandpassed 12in. sounds good, and hits pretty hard.

i have an Alipine 1385 MP3 deck, with a 4 channel digital cross over, and digital time correction. running 60 wattsx4.

car came with the Infinity premium audio system with an amp. sounds pretty decent, has nice speaker placement.

running a single 12" Diamond Audio TDX 4 (1600 watts RMS) off a Rockford 1000bd amp. have all stinger wireing and a 1 farard stinger capacitor. (but i need like a 5 farad)

sub is mounted to a specialty "lambrinth" ported box. basicly its like bose wave radio tech. it reverses the sound of when the sub goes in, and produces a much high volume with out only focusing on 1 pitch like a normal port doesn.

pioneer p4600mp cd player, pioneer 6x9's, 2 bazooka 10 inch woofers in my box, 750 watt bazooka amp, some pos 4 or 5 inch door speakers. sounds real good. getting tweeters soon
