Thread: Audio I'm about to order

Audio ordered, waiting on shipping. I will take pics of things for fun.

Looks like a really nice system. Are you doing any sounds deadening on the rear deck and doors? I would recommend it....

eD's e dead is really good and cheap compared to anything else.

I have like 60ft of edead from my last se-r. I did the doors n rear deck last time, probably will again.

Looks like a decent set of stuff coming your way. No real complaints here.

Ya. looks solid for the price. Total Harmonic Distortion on the amp is low @ 0.06%. My amps are 0.05% THD or lower. Not sure how much you know about stereos but Peak vs RMS power is a big deal. Clean power is RMS, the rest is somewhat distorted. I have 0 and 2 AWG ground wire but 4 is more than enough for you setup. The crowning piece in any system is the head unit. A low-voltage unit is not as good as a higher voltage unit in helping to minimize the niose distortion. A cheapo head unit will not send as good of a signal to the speakers as a more expensive one. But for a modest sysytem most head units will do.

If you are going to add a sub later but want super clean base, stick to 2 ten inch subs in a sealed boxed. Sealed box base will be tighter than ported box base with the same speakers. If you like deep low base but want to stay tight get a 12" setup in a sealed box or just port the 10" setup. I have three 10's in a custom built sealed box, it hits hard but will play rock and house music without being boomy. The bigger the magnet on the back of the sub, generally the tighter the base can be. Dual voice coil is better than single voice coil but also more expensive. Look for 1" excursion on your sub, way better than 3/4" excursion.

Looks like a decent setup to start. Update how it turns out. And if you now all of what I said, oh well I guess...

2 subs isn't always the answer. 1 Good sub will do now a days.

scratch the over priced fosgate stuff and grab some cadence cwm-6

hifonics amp. think out side the overly advertised box. the USA made electronics are very good, handle boat loads of power, and are nearly half the price of the big name boys.


i have a single 10" in a .5cf sealed box with 170rms and it rips. however im thinking of adding a pair of Aura AST-2B-4 to the front seats because i just found out about this and im really curious.

All you have to do is have a custom vented enclosure designed to work with the specs of the sub. Just ask Wayne. I had 2 ED 7kv.2's in a custom ported enclosure tuned to 35Hz running @ 8ohms and it spanked the output from most dual sealed 10" enclosures.

My 2 e3.6 (6.5") subs hit harder than a lot of 10's I've heard and I'm only pushing a tiny bit of power to them (60w each).
