    fuse on my amp keeps blowing

    Do you have a digital multimeter? You can test for shorts on your wire run or on the amp. It's $10 and if you're a DIY person, it's very worth the price. Saves you the headaches and money in car audio.

    LOL..... what if it was psychological and he didn't want to reveal his secrets?

    ipod eq

    Be the first, and DO IT! A 31 band PEQ would be overkill though. I can see most people ****ing it up over a fixed Q on a GEQ. While you're at it, add a top and bottom crossover with level matching l/r with the ability to do phasing and time alignment.

    Rainbows!

    You might be better off auditioning other speakers yourself to make any real comparison. Listen a bit and see what type of other lines sound good to you. Although a good pointsource coaxial might be easier for tuning, components will most likely give you more flexibility in your set up tonality...

    ipod eq

    Do what sounds best to you. Seriously. If your system is already peaky on the top end, and for some miracle reason the EQ corrects it, why not use it?

    PG RSD mids..yes, they live up to the hype

    You got them Arkz? Iso-baric tweeters FTMFW! My car is a welded down the middle with non conductive plastic. So one side is for the negative terminal of the battery and the other side is positive. I don't have to run any power wires for my amps. Audio signal is bluetooth. All I had to do is...

    PG RSD mids..yes, they live up to the hype

    I wish they sold self auto processing drivers with bluetooth. All you have to do is mount it. Wait, no, **** it, just lay it on the floor with some velcro. This would go great with my wireless amps.

    Phasing the tweeters (sq comp coming)

    Um, have a little more confidence in yourself. "dudes with mcintosh headunit and mcinstosh amps" doesn't mean jack ****.

    Sq new system

    Since nobody really does a single vba set up, the best way to say is that you're powering your 108's.

    put a system together w/ some eq. i had laying around the shop

    So with the speaker in the doors like that, seems like the stage will be pulled a lot by that. I imagine it there were any resonance, say around 200hz, it'd be hard to get good imaging. Oh wait, is this an SPL set up? My bad. You should do a wall and some plexiglass windows. So what is the...

    New car and bad audio - what to do?

    Listen to the system first, and find out what's wrong it. Then you can determine what you need to fix. Most stock systems will lack any low end, unless you have 6x9's, you'll see a drop off at around 70hz or so. Most people who complain about stock systems, are usually complaining about volume...

    Hatchback vs trunk vs suv performance

    We're giving advice. It's just unorthodox.
