hollatchaboy Posted January 17, 2006 Author Share Posted January 17, 2006 Noooooo! Arrrgghhhhh!!! Please tell me the box for the Alpine 12s is for another car! Everybody knows you don't mix subs in the same car. It may win show points but the sound will suck. lol, no worries. the smaller box is a sealed box for 2 Alpine Type R 12's that's going in my friend's 2001 4-door saturn. indeed, i DO know better then mixing subs (whether it be brands OR sizes). thanks for the friendly reminder, though .

John M Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Must ... fight ... urge ... to ... build ... massive ... wall ... in ... truck ........ I'm definitely an "old school" car stereo guy. I have the first CA&E magazine, bought off the shelf! I remember when the Coustic XM3 was new, and I was ultra cool when I bought a pullout tape deck for like $200+. I owned Clarion's first car CD player, one of the first I'd seen that didn't require a cartridge to hold the single CD. I still have a voice module to a StealStopper alarm system (DEI; later renamed Python). Before I entered the IT field I owned a small car stereo shop in the early 90s. Unlike what you may picture when you think of a small town shop, I wasn't just slapping amps & speakers into cars. I was MECP certified when it was new. I went to the Installer Institute in FL and took their advanced install class as well as sub enclosure design. It's the design that's key, and I enjoy surprising people. At that last contest, people were first surprised to hear "that kind" of music coming from a Grand Marquis. Then they were more shocked to see it was a single 12 literally tossed into the trunk that morning. To me there's no such thing as too much bass! I can appreciate everything else about car stereo (my music ranges from The Blues Brothers to Dire Straits to Metallica to Eightball & MJG to The Oak Ridge Boys) but I'm still happiest when I throw in some Dynamix II and let 'er rip.

executor485 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 arent you worried about someone jacking your system? Its got padlocks and stripped bolts, so its permenant JK Besides, if someone was to steal that thing, it would take them forever to remove that sucker, its freakin huge... Compensating for something? JK Looks nice though, just too big for my taste. If I pass you on the right, I'm flipping you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
