ok, imagine 2 subs, same power rating same amp.
a) 8" with a recc. 0.3 cubic feet sealed enclosure
a) 10" with a recc. 0.75 cubic feet sealed enclosure
now which would sound better
a) 8" in a 0.3 cubic feet sealed enclosure
b) 10" in a 0.5 cubic feet sealed enclosure (smaller than...
cool, did yu take the whole 1/4 panel off and mount a mdf ring from the back ? how difficult is it to do that ??
that plastic is so flexy........has the mdf stifened it up ??
fiddled around a bit today, replaced the crappy rear factory speakers with the slightly better (blaupunkt) factory mids that were in the front.
then made some mouting rings for the mids upfront - not sure if they will make a diff - think I need to maybe try get some self tappers through the...
I know this may be off topic slightly, but regarding the wooden spacers does this make a difference to the sound as the speaker is mounted more rigidly than it is when screwed straight into the plastic door card ?
thats crap - on a similar note I rode passed a house on Saturday with a black Merc SLK 55 AMG on bricks (just down the road where my Dad got his 530i's rims stolen)
long story is that i might be going from a 1.6 to a 1.4
anyway to give a 1.4 a little more power ?
filter?
freeflow exhaust ?
anything you can reccomend that doesn't affect the waranty ??
or am I being a bit picky - will I be happy with a 1.4 ?
trade was good - same as about 19000km's ago.
problem is that there are no more 1.6 dynmiques in the country.
so my only other option is a 1.4 limo on 15's.
whats the power like ? they say 72kw compared to the 1.6's 79kw ??
don't like the back doors :(
considering a new clio - ranault here in SA are having a special (interest rate 4.9% - prime is 10.5% at the banks)
looking at a 1.6 dynamique.......
have a feeling they are going to value my car really poorly, not that its in bad nick or anything.
wish me luck.
this morning I was sitting in the most herendous traffic - so I have my display showing average fuel consumption (l/100kms) while I'm standing still the average starts climbing, 9.8...9.9....10.0.....10.1 etc - now this is the average and I'm idle ?? (usually ave about 7 liters per 100kms for...
the fronts are Lightning Audio comps.....rated at 60w rms so I'm sure they will sound better with 50w rms going into each one than what the (sony) HU is currently feeding them.
Depending on what it sounds like with them amped - I'll decide my next move. (really don't want a box in the boot -...
in my hear if hearts I know this is the best option. Money' tight so I'm going to connect my existing amp to the comps and be patient for the 2nd amp and 8" sub combo.
I'm actaully keen to put some in my car to make a comprison....
I'm pretty sure for the average guy in a small car they will be fine and a good improvemnt over standatd with out getting too involved
btw - where's the pics ? ;)
