Echo.

whats funny is the XB sound way better than that car did that i got 4th with...

Aight ladies, shut it....

Super matt to the rescue...

Slim...Dang dude who'd have known you were so rockin back then (you are now too, just in different ways)

I was joking rocco because you posted the exact same thing twice. Am I going to get jumped on for everything from now on from you? Let's take this to PM's if it is going to continue.

And Slim.... I am interested in your setup though. Car audio fascinates me. One of the other small hobbies I ahve dabbled in. That and making sub boxes. Mine is currently ported and tuned to 35 hertz I believe. I really like the sound of a sealed box though.... just not quite as loud.

The sad part is, I still have my bike from 1990, in my basement LOL

yea sure... i have it a lil bass heavy right now since i feel like cranking it now. but the staging is still pretty much the same.

ALL of my friends cars are waaay too bass heavy so I don't think I will mind too much. I try to have my budget setup as balanced as possible. I want to see how it's done though. What setup is in your car right now? What components? Head Unit? Sub(s)? Amps? Quick rundown.

hu is a eclipse 8443

mids are MOREL 4s
tweets are VIFA
midbass is ADIRE Kodas
sub JL 12w0 or 6 sealed.

only the 12 is amped.... and still gets stupid loud. i had 3 amps but never really used them so i took them out and sounds the same.

if you wanna hear spot on sound staging... get in the XB... center vocals are just below the morror and so is the rest of the stage.

Nice Slim! I have heard both the W0's and W6's (I owned W3's). I really like JL's stuff. The W0's for the money really impressed me. Right now I have an Adire Audio Brahma. Clean, and decently loud.

And I missed those last couple pics. I miss Phoenix Gold's older amps (I have one 300.4 sitting around still.) They don't make them like that anymore.

Taken with my camera phone.

Allright.... I keep missing things. I just saw the Adire logo by the keyboard. The Brahma was part of your winning setup!! Killer.

Sounds nice...
Im pretty impressed with the cars nowadays....Ive heard stock systems that sound better then many aftermarket ones I installed back in the day LOL

Im really happy with the way my Crossfire sounds...the staging is great and Im just using the stock front midbass and tweeters...Which are higher-end infinity models.
I just took the stock amp out and ran all new wires, using my JL 500/5 amp to run the system in 3-way mode with a 8W7 in a sealed box.

Maybe some day we can check out each others rides.....problems is, I have pull out the sub box to fit my R/C gear in the trunk of that little car LOL

Older amps? Ha!
Man, you make me feel old...the one you mention is newer compared to what I used to run.... the "real" PG amps back in the day

Whoops. I meant older than their current stuff. I think they have slowly gone downhill....
