big sound system
« on: 04 April 2009, 17:19:06 »
best place for my amps im stuggling cause i need all the space in the back to go fishing,the only place i can think of is in the rear seat foot wells the backs of the seats are no good as i need them folded down and then my system will then get bashed about with all my gear.

who would of thought finding space in a omega estate would be hard   [smiley=lolk.gif]

obviously you have no idea of good quality sound just because the amps are big it doesn't have to be loud.

i have a Linn home stereo and that has 4 pre amps 4 power amps that is masive and sound quality that will take some beating and that is not a loud system but very high quality

Being somewhat tone deaf, you're right ;D

However, car is pretty hostile for hifi, and you can't really shine that up much...

I believe the correct term is 'Ya cannae polish a turd!'

I think it's pretty hard to get a good sound in a car, it's just not designed for it.

Oh, how wrong you are . . . . .

It may not be designed for it, and it may indeed be a very hostile environment . . .

But you can certainly get some awesome sounds inside a car

This is what Car Audio is designed for, ok you wont get the Perfect Imaging your Home Audio System will give but with the right Equiptment and Positioning you can improve its stock.


Im running a Series Tuned Bandpass enclosure in my Mig basically the rear Chamber is Tuned to 24 hz and front to 70hz and have Plotted it correctly to play flat from 20 to 70.

Rear Chamber is 3 cuft and front is 2.5!

Because its a Sallon the Front Chamber Vent is firing straight through the Ski hatch!


Midbass next!    :)
