Got into car audio through my brother. All his friends use to call him "The Bass Master". He always did have pretty decent equipment and it did sound nice. System was always clean looking as well and he only went sealed, he didn't like ported. So he got me into car audio, and then I just expanded into areas he never did.
i got started in high school my friend had one of those sony pentagon subs in a sealed box from walmart and we loved to listen to the young bloods damn song in it i thought it was th sht back then. so i went down to best buy and bought me a power acoustik setup in a sealed box and thoufht i was the hottest sht on the block the sad part is that i was.lol blew my amp then sold my subs bought a mk2 brahma and really started geting into it. i love it ut its hard to support you audio habits with a newborn son and a wife. luckly she doesnt mind me blowing 1000s of dollars on it. shes into it. she misses the way im sprung by tpain sounds. i thought she was gonna kill me when i dropped 1000 just on a new amp
26 and my older bro used to have the best systems i ever heard. in his caddy he had 4 12's in plexiglass sealed up with a big power 1000 in the backwindow of his car. then his bmw he had 4 15" solobarics in the trunk. since then i've been trying to achieve where he left off at. (with no luck as of yet)
used to love listening to my older cousin's rockfords... He let me have them when he upgraded and that was all it took... i messed around with ppi, jbl, kicker,jl and DD a series.
im presently running a 12 inch version 3 idmax.
i love this sub and we're not parting until the version 4 arrives...
Hey hunter you spent a grand on a single amp; seems like your living a true audiophile's dream...
lol the only way i could get it is cuz one of the local dealers here is a good friend and let me make payments. its an rf t30001bd with all the internas upgraded. its supposed to be better then the 07 not sure. i haventr even got to hook it up yet. thats the heartbreaking part
33 Started when I was a youngin I was at Hi Fi Fo Fum stereo shop. I sat in the Old Rockford Fosgate Van first time ever had 4 18" Rockford Powers with the 4 of the Huge Power 1000 Amps. Made me feel like I couldn't breathe. I have had the bug ever since.
im 17 and one time i was at school at i was at lunch and my friend knew this kid and we went out to his car and he had 2 15" L7's and a hifonics colosullus amp in a pontiac then it was love from there.
At least most of you guys know what you talking about. All the younger people around here are just dumb. My borther is 16 and I'm teaching him some stuff about car audio so he can go school these little kids.
18, my first system was a kicker and i liked how music sounded with all the bass so i did research to look for a better setup and found myself more addicted to it each day.
i'm at work, but according to DHL.com my first REAL sub, idmax, was delivered to my house today!
18 ... my brother had a system when i was 13... loved it... so i bought a audiobahn system for my room... then i learned.... and when i got a car i started doing things right.
gota start somewhere. yo jedi you gonna play hooky and go home and hook it up? i was so giddy when got my mk2 brahma man i loved that woofer thougt it was the best sub ever. it didnt last very long though i had a refurb hifonics amp go heywire and blew the surround. then i got my xxx 15 i love that sub. i have got to mess around with a whole bunch of subs these days
Yeah jake that place has been around for a long time. There was also Advanced Auto Alarm before it was Custom Sounds. I think it was something even before that can't remember. Also State Radio been around for awhile. My first system er so I thought was my 4 12" MTX Blue Thunders in a wall using L.A. Sound amps in a 87 Cutlass heh.
well, ive already posted my age, as for getting into car audio...I don't really recall, but my first "system" was a crappy walmart 8 sub in a prefab box with a walmart 200 watt amp..in a jeep cherokee. Second system was 2-10 inch alphasoniks on a 300 watt amp, which lasted about 4 days until I fried the amp,the I bought a 350 watt Visonik amp that came with a 12 inch Visonik sub...sub sounded like crap, so I gave it away, and hooked that amp up to the Alpasonik 10's...then my wife made me get rid of all of it...then ...my system I have now 300 watt Jensen amp with 2 RE8 subs...Loudest of everything I've had so far, soon I'll be upgrading to a PG Xenon 400.1 amp that puts out 425 watts.
ah i built a book bag system back in junior year as a challenge to a kid who bought one. and it was on ever since, i soldered over the rem used a 4 ch rempage 200 watt amp, 2 8 inch sony xploads and a optimus 6 inch sub and ran it off 2 rca battery packs to run 14 volts into the amp. itwas wired into my ipod through rcas and looked like a sleeper. it wa loud enough to make me popular amoung music lovers. then i started out in my suburban up grading the hu to a insignia 5x 4 cd player and 100 watt pioneers in dash with a dual band pass 2 12 inch woofers and dual amp 400 watts. then i went with 4 infinity sub woofers 150 watt poneers in front, infinity amp 650 watts, pioneer hu i still use to this day , 2 infinity 6 inch 2 ways in bk that i run now in my other car. my current setup, infinity 600w 1600a amp, 5 farad tsunami cap, 1, alpine type-r 12, 2 type s alpines in back 6x9s, 2 infinity 6 inch in the front doors, pioneer hu, harmon kardon drive/play kit for ipod, sirius sat radio sportster 4. in a 93 olds. u can also see the 4 infinity 10's and 12's bumpin on the one amp in bragging forum.
Jut turned 20 last month I first got into car audio because my brother in law used to be an installer i use to watch him install all kinds of crap back then. But he had some jl audios 12" subs he had for the longest time he finally retired them last year after the surround started falling apart lol he had em for a good 7-8 years years. Well he gave me my first amp a pioneer amp and i bumped it in my dads truck with some house speakers LOL. But the first system in my car was a rockford fosgate 360a2 with a Diamond audio sub. I miss the good ol days.
sat in my brother's friends beretta with 2 10" mtx's which i later bought his whole system for 200 bucks lol and just kept moving on from there it was loud in that qlogic bandpass box gotta give it that
