MY SOUND SYSTEM

Postby SR » September 21st, 2010, 12:30 pm

a bit of advice
enclosures for the 8's seem to be too "square" and can cause standing waves on the internal reflections causing cancelation and reducing the mid bass and some midrange output
suggest using a 1/2 lb of polyfill per enclosure and see if your midbass accuracy improves

Thankx markden111...Upgrade time fellaz

...changin my sub so heres my question: which would you all choose between the "MB Quart DWI 252" and "T3 T.400-10s" and why...also note that the new sub will be going into the same box which is approximately 1.5 cf and tuned to 35hz.

5forward just out of curiosity, i was wondering, what was your reason for doing a system like this vs getting a home system suited to this application?

5forward · Postby **5forward** » December 9th, 2010, 9:04 am

Alot more midbass and much deeper sub bass...in my opinion.plus i had the sub an pre amp before i decided to do this

ok cool thanks, i recently got a a 2.1 logitech system for a good price and was listening to it, and was wondering the difference especially with respect to the sound difference for the price difference.

oh ok.I myself have a 5.1 logitech system(Z5300e)...but after about 2 years of it,i wanted something...more

UPDATE: Its been a while but slowly and surely things are being upgraded.My computer is now the sole "head unit" of the system so the deck and pre-amp is gone.Power supply upgraded to an 80amp one.Processing is a clarion MCD360 and at this point i feel that it just might be holding back some quality but its needed.Maybe in the future i might change to something better but that would be far from now.Amps were upgraded to rockford fosgate prime: 300-4 and 500-1.Same front mids,rear mids now: dls 225 in sealed enclosures.Sub is Image dynamics ctx10" in a enclosure tuned to 33Hz.A lot of wires upgraded to higher quality ones as well.Its sounds great to me.Sound from all around now and everything is in stereo so i dont have to say what that will do for movies and games.

hey, add a pair of midz again, get a audio control eqs and do a surround sound system.

i'm missing two things from setting up a surround sound system in a vehicle; a pc system for which i got a usb sound card, and the time...

I didnt utilize what i had...i specifically bought these items for this setup.I dont plan on adding any more mids,but might upgrade processing in the future...
