I just picked up a pair of these flat pistons in mint condition, but
don't really know a whole lot about them, other than they are 8 ohm
each, and 300w RMS. I'm wondering if anyone has any specs on these t
help in building a sealed box, and what amp would you recommend? Shoul

I have a '99 Mazda Protege.  The factory CD player has been acting up
lately - sometimes I can't insert the CD into the slot - it's like
something is keeping the CD from getting sucked inside.  I can force
the CD inside, but as soon as I hit the 'CD' button, the disk ejects.

a good amp???

Using a Terk XM Commander hooked up to my C90 HU via an XA-300 aux input
selector.  Anyway, I've tried hooking up the power, accessory, and ground
wires in multiple different locations and have a very LARGE electrical
interference (alternator whine, noise with headlights, turn ...

Ive got two Image Dynamics 10" in a sealed box.  Would making a new
box and adding a single 12" into the mix make any real difference?  Or
would it be best to just scrap the box and go with (2) 12"'s?

It's been anywhere between 20 and -12 degrees farenheit where I live for the
last two weeks.  Will pushing my subs hard at that temperature hurt the
surrounds before they've had a chance to warm up?  Should I listen at a
lower volume until they've come up in temp a little?  2 ...

I heard that the car battery cannot supply current at a fast enough rate
(because of chemical reaction neccesary) for subwoofers and that a cap is
needed.
At what power ratings should one start to worry about this?

OK, so my basic understanding is higher-voltage Preamps send better-quality
signal, generally speaking, correct?
If so, how does one go about attenuating the gain on any given amp in
relation to the preamp signal (nomatter which V it is)?

Just a survey for curiosity, what's the most "natural" CAR speaker you've ever
heard? The speaker that colors and modifies the sound the least.

I recently reconfigured my amps so now they're running my Dynaudio System
360 set in tri-amped mode.  However, when setting the gains on my amps, I
now notice that if I turn the gains up too high, I hear a low-level static
noise coming from the speakers (like pink noise).  The ...

Goodday all!
I have been in the car stereo buying group as of late, and I currently
own a Chevy Malibu (unfortunetly nicknamed the mom mobile by my
friends).  I am looking to replace the stock speakers and I have been

  Having just recently gotten serious about car audio, I performed my
usual routine of learning a new subject through intensive research and
data collection.  What I found really surprised me, being an amazingly
flooded market with over a hundred brands for each component.  How can

The Pioneer DEH-P5500MP have SHUFFLE option for MP3 ?

I have a 2001 Ford Taurus and I am going to add a aftermarket head unit.
However, I have found that the installation kit is $50 or more at Circuit
city. Can anyone direct me to a more cost effective place to purchase the
kit? Thanks.
