^ basslink?

 

[mr monday niight]

since you're going subless i was gonna suggest a nice 8" midbass in the doors for low end, but that takes alot of planning and fabrication sinceyou'll have to cut up the doors.

what ohm config

2-12" MA Audio subs - 300w rms. Dual 4-ohm; borrowing them from a friend.


Got them hooked up to the Kicker ZX750.1

They're temporary until I save for my 12" Fi Q and custom box.

They beat hard

, and way better than my 2-10" Sony Xplod,

Gotta start somewhere.

sonicelectronix.com is legit.
crutchfield is, but kind of expensive.
soundsolutionsaudio.
onlinecarstereo.com
woofersinc.com

 

[mr monday niight]

those kicker amps aren't 1 ohm stable...so use 1 sub and give it the whole 750

 

[treb2k5]

I'm just getting 4 ohms out of it right now, beats real hard, and sound better/beats harder than my last system.

Trunk flexes, roof flexes, windows vibrate...

It's good for me.

 

[kobe82410]

helluva deal, you basically got almost 1k RMS for 65 bucks

and @ one ohm they would surely blow those poor MA subs

alright, go slow explaining this too me monday...

I just bought a civic coupe to use as a DD. It came with a pioneer (I think, dont remember) headunit, the stock speakers in the door were replaced withaftermarkets ones (Ill tell you the brand tom.) and its connected to a small box but the sound is still crappy if I put up the volume.

What else do I need?

 

[mr monday niight]

get me model numbers and pics

 

[lemonade41]

On the 2009 model AVN-3100 double din are the preamps REALLY 4v?

 

[mr monday niight]

I don't see why they would lie about something like that.

 

[lemonade41]

Ok, well I'm sure I'll be able to find one cheap soon as the new '10 models are about to displayed at the CES in a month or so

I couldn't pass it up!

The MA Audio's are just temporary until I get my 12" Fi SSD or Q, not sure which one I want yet.

My friend's girl had a baby, so don't think she'll be using her 12's anymore, so I asked to borrow them, she said it was cool.

They beat WAY harder than my old system [sony xplod], but I'm gonna install my 480w 2-channel amp on my front speakers and upgrade to this Pioneer deck Ifound n Craigslist for $100.

Budget system with well-known quality products, FTW!

can't knock that.

 

[mr monday niight]

what's wrong with the ma audio's?why not keep them and put them in a custom box?

 

[treb2k5]

http://www.sonicelectroni...59_MA+Audio+MA121XQ.html

MA Audio MA12XQ Dual 4-Ohm, 300w RMS.

I might build a custom ported box.

The box they're in now is sealed and takes up my whole trunk.

I have the subs facing into the cabin on my Sentra.

Had them facing the back, but hated the rattling, so I turned the box around and stopped most of rattling.

 

[mr monday niight]

damn, those need 2 cubes each

would 4-4.2 fit?
