so im new to the whole car audio thing, a buddy been helping me pick out componets heres what im looking at so far, im just loooking for helpfull advice, im looking to build a system that not nesscerly will crank out 150+db but rather sound decent and get pretty loud


Subs 2x- http://www.sundownaudio.com/index.ph...ategory%5Fid=3
Amp - http://www.audioque.com/AQ1200D-Amplifier%5Fp%5F30.html

fix the links

the amp is a good one. all other links are broken

good deck too

maybe add a small deep cycle battery to the list, and some 2 or 0 gauge power and ground wire.

 

fixed

thanks

also need to pick up a smaller amp to run the 2 ways right?

 

subs are good

mids i have no idea

tweets seem good for the money

passive crossover??? pffffffff

yah you could use a smaller amp for the door speakers and tweets i guess.

 

what about the crossovers?

i dont even no what there for
explain please

 

it's an audio cross over, try googling it maybe, the one you posted is a passive, there are also active ones. im pretty sure that deck has a half decent cross over controls built in.

 

so what should i do u guys are being very vague.. im a noob i need help here

what would you guys do to make this system better.

 

Actually Yuli is offering advice, 1) Deep cycle battery 2) Bigger gauge wire 3) Using active filtering for your speakers as opposed to passive.

You would get better results buying a component set with matched speakers/properly designed passive crossover's that are designed for use with the exact speakers you have

Active - freqency bandwidth is controlled before amps - power delivered right to speaker
crossover settings become dangerous in the wrong hands as misuse can lead to speaker destruction (Though a clipped signal sent in any speaker can devour a voice coil

Passive - a full range signal output by the amp - filtered (powerloss) through coils/capacitors before reaching the speakers. No control over individual speakers, less likely for a newbie to screw up

I also didn't see any mention of door treatment/ or deadening of any other part of the car

 

The subs are awesome!
That is all

 

what he said about components.....
