Audiocontrol i mean...what you have already been talking in your thread....the one you have bought.....do i really need this
I'll go for the ported sub boxes
deadending i was just saying thank you...i will look at foam cld tiles and MLV i'll you use thos three
Battery....i've seen people changing the battery for a more powerful on and adding the big three of course but not changing the alternator and adding a second battery......perhaps...how much for an alternator of 200 amp ?
thank you!!

Your HU will work fine. (add an EQ with subwoofer like the one I'm selling and you can hook up 2 or 3 amps)

Alpine type R is a good choice.

At some point a got an active cross over from AudioControl and I returned, and I'm very happy of doing so. After that I got a Pioneer P-99 with many features to control sound.

Ported boxes are loud.

If loud bass is what you want for the Trunk I recommend you 2 or 3 layers of Mat instead of CLD+CCF+MLV system.

Search the forum for battery/alternator information there is a lot of info here.

I hope it helps!

That's a lot of power!

I was running 65watts x4 for mids and tweets and its more than enough for me. 400 watts into the 10" woofer.

12 years ago I had a system in my small truck and people could hear/feel me coming 3 or 4 blocks away! it was a blast. Sound Quality (SQ was terrible tough) it was something like this:

HU with 1 RCA
EQ with subwoofer control (1 RCA input - 3 RCAs output [1 for subs])
400 watts for subs
60x4 watts for front and rear speakers
Two 12 inch pioneer woofers, Ported 2 cubic feet each

Check this thread I think you are going to like it!

P-99 is the EQ that has 1 RCA in and 3 RCA out ? and will control the sub level ? and mid, tweet and high level ? How much ?

So i would need and amp for my sub, a 4x65 for my front speaker and tweeter and a third amp (2x100)for my rear ?

add a second battery in the trunk and connect to the a new alternator.....and connect my actual battery to the new alternator ? all that with 0gauge wire

P-99 its a head unit not an EQualizer!




You just need 2 amps, for front speakers + tweeter use passive x over.

[packetrace]

ohh!!! I'm sorry !! so the EQ is the picture you show me right here ? what the model ? how much ?.....and it has 3out 1 in ..right ?

thanks for 2 the information on passive xover.....it connects with rca and then a wire to the tweeter right ?

EQ6500 Pioneer $50 + shipping 1 rca in 3 rca out

passive x over goes after amp. then splits in mid and tweeter.






Example of a passive x over:

Look at this graphic, basically it's what you want...

HU to EQ,

Then EQ to Amps

Amps to Speakers.

[packetrace]

Well I did some more resin + fiber glass on the spheres, reinforcing the week points and beefing up
the area that will be mechanically attached to the A-Pillar.





The resin set up quickly so mean while I did some Tweeter restoration...













These are small and from the bunch I have (Zeus 1" tweeter and JBL TS-25) they produce the sweetest sounds from all the above, the JBLs are louder and the Zeus are a little harsh. So if the restoration didn't screw them up, I'll try to do smaller spheres. If not, I may use the Zeus or start thinking about a new pair of tweeters!

How do you choose your mid speaker....by size....by Frequency Response ?

If you are going to put them in the doors just pick any 6.5" speaker of your choice.

These Zeus Hifonics are the ones I got for the doors, soon I'll uninstall them and putting a midbass drive in kick panels. See how the OEM speaker looks so wimpy!

[packetrace]

So if i resume it...

Tweeter = those little black speaker with cross over

Mid = 6.5'' in the front door

Mid bass = 6x9'' ah the back

Sub = 2 x 12'' alpine type R (which i'll buy)

I amplify my mid bass , mid and my tweet...but i but a X over between the amp and the tweet and also the mid...or only xover for the tweet ?

Thank you
