I have a pair of the SL80's in my front doors and must admit I'm not satisfied with them. They just don't have that "warmth" that I'm looking for. They sound crisp and clean, but they just aren't doing it for me.

I'm gonna try to do a smoke test on the enclosure.....I'm thinking if it's leaking anywhere it's around the sub itself.....the only thing between the sub and the enclosure is the autocarpet I used to cover the box.... may cut it back and put some weather strip

Long story short: Minimum air space enclosure overstuffed with polyfil=crisp, clear, and very punchy bass Recommended air space enclosure stuffed with correct amount of polyfil= deep, sloppy, one note playing bass Does this sound correct? The Long Story: My 10" shallow...

Great vids...thank you

I get what your saying. And may combine methods. Use scope for the 4 door speakers to get the most out of them....and tune sub by ear so it doesn't overpower. I'm not looking for boomy bass.....would like it to hit hard....but none of that exaggerated stuff for me. I think I see the...

That's what I was thinking.....just a measure to avoid clipping the signal from the HU and the amp. Isn't that the point? to maximize output while avoiding clipping It's funny....I've read a lot of articles on amp tuning.....most people say by ear is the best.....some folks say DMM is the...

Thanks for the info....guess I'll just grab an oscilloscope from work and give it a shot.

Got all my gear installed "professionally" but I'm convinced the guy didn't tune my amp correctly....when I got in, the "bass boost" control was cranked all the way up...and it sounded like ****.......but if I turn the "bass boost" down all the way....my sub cuts out completely....not how I...

Went with Pioneer AVH-4100DVD nice!

Well all my gear is finally installed...ended up paying a sound shop to install it because I didn't have the time......very pleased with the end result. I had the pleasure of doing business with sonicelectronix.com and the misfortune of doing business with dealercostcaraudio.com If I...

Thanks for the input. Box is built with no terminal plate.

I'm about to start building my sealed enclosure. I picked up a speaker terminal plate but noticed there's really no way to make the push terminals themselves airtight. Would this "air leak" negatively affect the sub enclosure? Should I just run wires directly from the sub outside the...

perhaps behind the seat....could get away with 16x5x33 May be the better option

definitely planned on a sealed enclosure box size has to increase with non sealed

recommended volume .45 cu.ft. max .7 min .35

The last of my parts should be on their way...so it's time for me to start thinking about building an enclosure. I've played around with some of the online calculators, but would like to get some recommendations. Box size limitations. 6tall, 16wide, 14deep(under rear passenger seat) Not sure...

If I went with an HU with fewer preamp outputs....say front, back/sub. Should I split the front to use for the rear channels and use the other for the sub input on my amp?

In the 30 or so customer reviews that I read on the JVC unit, the only complaint was about the sluggish Ipod controls.....I don't, and won't, be owning an Ipod. All other features were highly praised. I'll keep looking though.

this one may have to do http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12103_JVC+KW-AVX810.html#tabs what do yall think

I'm looking for a double din HU/DVD player for around $400. Needs to have front, rear, and sub preamp outputs, sirrius satellite ready, usb input, steering wheel control compatable. I've searched and searched and can't find one that meets all the criteria.....anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for this tip! I'm gonna have to look around the shop to see what we've got.....I believe I've seen some 12 conductor that's shielded. I definitely wasn't thinking along those lines....but shoulda been. Thanks again

Sounds like for the most part you were checking these fuses visually. You said you have a meter....so set it to continuity....and test the fuses without taking them out of their sockets. Just measure across the little metal pieces on the top of the fuses. You should be able to go through the...

That would be incredibly handy.....thank you

I have most of that stuff on hand...if not I can get it from work. Thanks

The amp has speaker level inputs....thanks though
