And pretty much anything with XBL^2 will sound good so all the companies using it are pretty damn good companies.
all opinions are bias. a reccomendation is bias, it is saying this is better than the rest in that price range. we are reccomending a varity of products that most people like. if you are saying what our bads are are bias. well if you think boomy distorted bass is good then go ahead and pay alot for audiobahn calling it SQ . as said before, bahn's are great for SPL but give nothing of a flat responce or clean bass in high excursions.


CVR's are 'ok' and alpine are 'ok'. neither have wonderful SQ or pound like a mofo.

thats cool, then keep up the good work u guys

I'll add more to it eventually and make it look better. It's something I whipped up really late this morning before I went to sleep.

[quote=bumpinstang77]first and foremost learn about what your doing. Go to www.BCAE1.com RESEARCH.
1. Budget
2. space available
3. Prducts needed (ex. subs, box and amp.......head unit and speakers.....ect...)
4. Some sort of idea of what you want.....sound quality, loudness (to a mic) Low and loud, good even smooth bass that sounds good and gets loud (call it SQL)



Ok, I went to Basic Cookies And Eats 1 dot com. Now what?!

1. I have $15
2. I have eleventy billion cubic inches
3. I need everything, all the electromagnetic transducers i can fit!
4. I want sound, like three little gnomes singing in my trunk. If that can be accomplished I may be able to raise my budget to $35.

Oh, and what speaker is THE BEST ever?

I think paul is getting lax, or he really doesn't care.

Quick! Start posting IPod site stuff!

Seriously though, something like this should be in place so us newbies that don't even know how to get the search feature to work right can get familiarized with car audio before we start posting things like:

"Hi! What's a sub woofer?"

"There's a little light in my trunk, do you think I could hook my amp up to that and save myself the trouble of running new wire?"

"Can I just cut a new hole in the deck next to the other rear speakers for my pretty new audiobahns so I don't have to have a box taking up room in my trunk?"

Those were just for your amusement, by the way. I know www.honda-tech.com's forum has several stickies in every topic for newbies and even more advanced users to use as reference, so it's actually a fairly standard thing to do in these types of forums.
