Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 705 Registered: Aug-05 | I have my system finished out in my mind. Now, to just buy it come Christmas. How does this sound? Infinity KAPPA50.7CS Component Speakers Audiobahn A4002T - For powering Comp. Speakers. Cerwin Vega Vmax Subwoofers - 2 12's Kenwood KDC-X589 HU (Have it already installed) Audiobahn A8000T - For running CV subs. H/O Alternator of some sort. Volfenhag HyperCap 1.2F Is that a semi-decent system? Could anyone make any tweaks to it, but keep within the price range of the current gear listed, except of course the sub amp and HU? They're staying. |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 2519 Registered: Jul-05 | seeing that there is a big sale on RE's subs why didn't pick some of those ? IMO - i'd go with some JBL amps instead , good power/price . thought in previous posts u didn't like Inf comps ? The HO would be nice but why don't u try setting it all up & then measure your A & check if its drooping so only then u will truly know if u need a Hoe ........ |

Bronze Member Username: Terry6405Sullivan, IN US Post Number: 80 Registered: Sep-05 | i have two of the new v-maxs. they are badas. well worth the money. but yea i wouldnt mess with audiobaun i heard they can blow subs because the power they do have is not refined well so it gets out of control at high volumes, i went with hifoics, everone gives them crap about being overratted but the power they have is good for the price. i have a BX1200D but because they are overated i would get a Bx1500 just to be sure |

Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 713 Registered: Aug-05 | SQL if possible. I already have the A8000T, so I'm sort of stuck with it for now. The Infinity comps. are going to have to do based on affordability, and anything will most likely sound better than my 5x7 Volfs. I'm open to suggestions on subs, I don't want too much SPL to the point that the SQ sucks at high levels. Hifonics? Are you serious? All I've ever heard was Isaac criticizing those...he recommended the A8000T to me BTW when I first got my system. I'll be using a sealed box. I got it for about $50, and it holds 2 12" subs. Here's a link to a very similar model of sub box I have: http://www.audio-n-more.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=ANM&Pr oduct_Code=HCK-121 Mine is black carpeting, and it's dual 12" subwoofer enclosure model with 1.2cu. ft. How much are we talking as far as those RE subs on sale anyways? I can get (2005) Vmax's for $180 a pair or (2004) Vmax's for like $150ish, and I've heard they are loud and sound good at high levels. Super, I have a feeling my A(Voltage, w/e we want to refer to it as) is drooping, as my headlights have a slight dim to them when my amp runs at high levels w/o going into clipping. So adding a 2 channel amp at 100W RMS X 2 @ 4 ohms will take me up to 1Kw RMS. That's about all I've got for now, let me know what you guys think. Also, is that choice of comp. speakers pretty good? Haha, Robert, the cap most likely will just be for some "bling" and nothing more, I realize they don't do much. |

Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 715 Registered: Aug-05 | That's cheaper...I was thinking two SE's maybe...but $150 a piece? I was thinking no more than $200 TOTAL! |
|
Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 718 Registered: Aug-05 | Oh yea, there's two auctions on E-Bay right now for the 2004 Cerwin Vega V-Max's starting bid at $55, and cheap shipping I believe. No reserve, If I could get those for $55.01ish + shipping, that'd be a good deal, eh? Any of you go bid on them, I'm coming to your houses, bringing my home stereo, running it from my car, in front of your house, and I swear, I'll crack your foundation...Hehe, j/k! But come on, LEMME HAVE THESE! |

Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 719 Registered: Aug-05 | You don't think I'll do it do you? They may be Sony 3-Way Bookshelf speakers, but they play down to 25Hz accurately...16 of them coupled with my Behringer EP-1500 700W x 2 @ 2 ohms...GRRR! I'll do it lol. 4 of these Sony speakers lol, alone at 1/4" excursion can actually vibrate my window panes on a 30Hz test tone like a motherf***er! I was shocked at these things, especially at $60 a pair. Nice and flat response...good stuff from Sony for once...it's amazing. Although Sony and Pioneer switch places in home audio, Pioneer sucks in SQ, where Sony sounds pretty dang good! |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 2543 Registered: Jul-05 | If u can get those around $50 - then BUY 4 ! ... that would be slamming !!!!...... |
|
Silver Member Username: TdbdadrummerPost Number: 721 Registered: Aug-05 | Well...there's only two for sale for $50. And I don't have an amp/enclosure/trunk space to accomodate four. I'd like it, don't get me wrong, but it's a bit out of range. |
