I might not know work under the hood but I do know how to hook up a great sound system any questions about that i am more then happy to help you with if you are interested i am running 1500 watts out of my stang got 2 12 inch audiobahn in a seal box a 1500 watt audiobahn 2 channel amp with a great jvc headunit with polk momo 6 1/2 comp in front and back sounds great but if anyone has any questions just give me a holler and i will help you as best as i can and ahell of alot better then those best buy kids

 

You need help on grammer and punctuation.

 

cool, one of my boyz is havin a problem with a new head unit he bought, i'll feed you some more info as soon as i hear exactly what the problem is with him.

 

Not to be a complete @$$ or anything, but dude, you have to know to teach. you have Audiobahn. I own a car audio shop, and Audiobahn is like the Kia of car audio. The 2 brothers that own audiobahn need to be shot. If you want good product try something more along the lines of Cadence, MMats, or Adire. If its stocked in big corp stores it was rushed through production and flashed up. Look at Kicker. Looks like chrome crap. I use to be a Kicker dealer until they worry more about looks than quality. thats what sells on corp stores. Oh and your 1500 watt amp is getting maybe 900 RMS if that .

 

what is the ampere rating on the fuse or fuses in this amp?

 

If its same model im thinking of we benched it at 923 watts. Cant remember fuses.

 

i totally agree with you about the quality. but it was nice of the kid to offer help to people that are otherwise totally lost. i have MMats subs in my car which im about to take one out because of the weight issue (one MMats 12 is more than enough bass for everyday driving, hell i won spl comps in my old car with 2 of their 12's). we need a better audio section on these forums. i'd be willing to help with any audio questions as well.

 

Thats why i said im not trying to be an @ss . But if your going to help people you cant turn them onto a brand that they arent going to be satified with. I dont know many peeps at all that like Audiobahn. the voice coils are crap and no SQ at all. Same with Kicker solo barics, what a gimic. Nice SPL but thats all your gonna get. Most i carry is high quality xcept one brand but its unbeatable for the price and has 5 year warranty. Ya MMats will knock your di*k int he dirt. Ever heard of Adire? If anyone has questions ill be glad to help as well. Not much audio is spoken of on here. Here is link to my shop and show car.... http://www.gotstang.com/profile.php?04redmach1&page=2

 

Yeah im having a problem fitting this into my car and using it with my current battery and amp...any suggestions?

 

hahaha, well cut a hole in your roof. Your car will be the box. Then put a roll cage in for subwoofer support. Drag a diesel behind you so you can keep your charging system up. Then punch yourself for paying that much for a sub that you could easily out beat with 2 MMats juggs or 2 Adire Tumults and spend alot less.

 

Finally! Someone with audio knowledge around here! I used to compete with resonant engineering running re xxx12 and re 35.1 LE in my daily driver beretta. I also used to have an sq s10 truck that took 5th place at 2003 usaci finals with pheonix gold zxti 400.2 and 600.2, mb quart comps (psd series i think), and mb quart psd(?) dual 10s.Ive always used alpine head units. I got out of that stuff but lately ive been gettin the bug again. Id like to install some comps/amp setup like macrom, morel, seas, DLS, or something along those lines with a car computer.

 

Ya i built a 67 bug few years back with my step dad and put 6 cheap 12's in it. Im fixing to buy another one and put 4 adire Tumult 12's with 2 Cadence ZRS-10 amps so ill be in the 0-301 class. 5000 true RMS watts at 2.6 full excursion off each sub WHOOHOOO.

 

Ok guys whats the best cure for dimming lights, bigger alt, 2nd batt or caps?

 

what brand amp, how many watts? is ur charging system stock? what subs?

 

Battery is a yellow top Optima. Rockford 800 a2 and 800 a4 (overkill on the 4 channel). Two Rockford DVC HE2 10" subs. I will need a new alt for the engine swap since the cobra is different than the GT.

 

Well i would do a bigger alt. SOMETIMES a cap will fix it. Try a 2 farad cap.

 

Im going to try the bigger alt 200amp with my current caps and see what happens.

 

200a alt should be suffecient.

 

Yuo already have caps and its dimming? if so you need alt no doubt.

 

j/w what you guys think of fosgate??? ive always liked it.

 

Back in the day when I was really into car audio, I liked more than I do now considering Best Buy carries it.

 

IMO, i cant stand them. Only the new HIGH priced $hit is worth a damn. Sell outs just like Kicker. When you go to a big corp store you mass produce which means you rush production, cut corners, and make it flashy. try a differ brand for quality.

 

well thats cool. thats your opinion. ive always been a fosgate fan. but my stuff isnt too cheap. what would you guys recommend for a 750-1000 budget.

 

yea, i got the same question as him, but my budget is 700...cause im buying small mods for my car also....I was wondering what 12"s to get and if HiFonics amps would be good enough (run each sub off each amp) ... If i can afford it, if not ill get alittle more cash...I was thinking Solobarics 12"s or 15"s? (could 2 15"s fit in the trunk of a stang, maybe pushed ALL the way back as possible to where it would be touching the seats almost?) ... thx ((I want loud, but not too loud, prefer quality...))

 

there isnt ANY way to get 15 in a stang. i did good to get my 10s back there. top of my box almost hits the rear speakers.

 

its possible , but box would need to be built with sub facing up. And if you want sound quality STAY AWAY FROM KICKER SOLO BARICS. SPL based subs. quality is crap. Go with 2 nice 12's and have someone build 2 seperate boxes for you so you can put one on each side of trunk, ( like mach 1000) . If you want check out this site.

I kinda like my audiobahns

 

what? i cant hear you, my exhuast is too loud

 

springs your one goofy kid , but i think you might hear some vibration. To be honest i dont really ever use them i would like to keep my hearing the box set up is just for looks.

 

You may like them, but to my professional opinion, they are crap. Yes they look good, but thats because their sound quality cant sell. Again im not being an @ss, but thats fact. Try out Adire, if you like Audiobahn, you will cream over Adire.
