Not feeling the speakers in the rear, but you are getting better. Those speakers in the rear will completely throw off the soundstage. I can point you in the direction for a 2-way active set up that would be louder than all those speakers if you want. Waht kind of subs?

right now i got 2 lighting audio p3's and 3 jensen 12's (the jenses arnt mine im barowing them) but im going to run lighting audio 12's and the mids yeah there cheap ass wal-mart $20 a set durabrands but they sound ok

Your talking about ghetto loud and you drive a honda? A lot of my buddies drive Chevys, and they are about "ghetto loud". And trust me a properly done set up is louder inside and outside than throwin a bunch of speakers around.

And sounds better. All you hear driving the road with cars with 2341341 speakers is a loud bundle of noise. All you hear driving the road when you do your shit right is the actual song.

yes i understand its loud he is trying to get you involved in an sq convo,which is obviously NOT what your s10 is about,it is about being loud.free bump,for a ghetto jammer,reminds me of the good old days.

I'm not getting into a SQ or SPL subject. Your agrument was ghetto loud (a bunch of cheap speakers) was louder than a 2 or 3 way set up. For say $20-30 more than he paid for those speakers he could of got a 2way passive set up that would be louder, like some CDTs or something.

I understand he can not afford top-end stuff though.

And that's not a battery "rack". It's a couple batteries thrown in the bed of a pickup truck.

I cant afford shit, and I swear my truck is a heap, but you went and redefined "Heap"

In all seriousness, pick one project and do it. Work in steps, from the bottom up. Do stuff like carpet first, then some seat rails, the dash, then the doors, then the battery rack, then the sub box/amp rack. I know we all want the most for the least, but ripping everything apart and doing 1/10th of everything just leads to a mess.

05-04-2007, 12:23 AM
x2 Stick in one area, finish that and continue. I don't begin building a box for my subs while I'm installing components. Take everything in order. Deaden the car. Run all wires (get 0 gauge to the batteries, it looks like 4 or 8, you need 0 or it's pointless to have the extra bats). Then beging working on your speakers, baffles, experimenting where you get the best/loudest sound, then move on to your substage and boxes.

You dont need mids coming from the rear, and having them above your head is hardly "rear".

What you need to do is glass a center console down fromt he dash to the wall, and get teh HU looking right,a nd some mids there or whatever.

OK OK I know I just spurred on 5 more pages of pics of tape decks and jensen mids facing the floor, and one of his leg stuck to the floor.

i dont think there is any concept or any knowledge of soundstaging being put into this project. just how many boxes with empty holes can he fit in his truck. he keeps sayin hes gonna get good equiptment when he gets a job but i dont know how he will ever get a job when he wasts so much time building these useless setups. or for that matter how will he get to his job with a truck that isnt driveable

Seriously. If he took half the time he spends building dead end projects and used it to look for a job, he'd have one in no time. I've always wondered how some people choose their priorities.

So let me get this straight... you're going to sell the S-10 to pay off the 300 you still owe on it... meaning you'll have no car and 250 bucks. Then you're going to waste those 250 on two subwoofers, wood, carpet, and a small amp (which doesnt make sense for 2 15" subwoofers!?)?????

Dude this just proves your priorities suck ass.

actually i didnt read.

But the fact still remains, you're wasting your money when you should clearly be saving it.


I've read and i've seen what you've done, only really bugged you about your fogged out camera. I have no problem with the whole experimenting thing, but theres no real progress and you're using 5 different brands of speakers in your setup... which is not going to sound good......... pretty much whatever you do to it.

You do know a wall consists of more than just a sheet of wood with some holes cut in it right? An enclosure of some sort is involved. You obviously have a looooooooong way to go. Why don't you save yourself the time and hassle of what your doing now and simply get a pad and pencil and just draw your ideas if you really want to know what they'd look like.

Seems like a lot of work just so you can visualize your ideas. Especially considering you wouldn't be able to use any of that if you were to actually do a real enclsoure.
