[Wotless Boi]

What good LOUD speakers brands are there? I search but no luck in foundin them execpt atomic, b&c those two i only found so far.

any help is appreciate!

[shake d livin wake d dead]

for a clean and loud midrange I would use BNC 10's especially 10md 26 models followed by a nice set of their drivers,then you need to get something for a nice midbass, in T'dad most people using rcf's,faital pros and 18 sounds.for your baseline try to get a demo on the subs mentioned above,they are all good is just up to you to determine which you find sounding the "bess".

For speakers: 2 10's (mids) (BNC)
2 10's (midbass) (FAITAL PRO)
2 drivers (highs/high mids) (BNC/SELENIUM)
and maybe something like 2 15's (subs) (......)
...my opinion

[Wotless Boi]

Power wires:

Power Wire: 3/0 Gauge Wire - 1/0 Gauge Wire - 3 Gauge
Wire - 4 Gauge Wire - 8 Gauge Wire - 10 Gauge Wire

Speaker Wire: 10 Gauge - 12 Gauge - 14 Gauge - 16 Gauge - 18 Gauge

which is good? 4 gauge wire and 1/0 wire?

reasons: I have already started getting the products just stuck on power wires right now

[MONGO]

0 Gauge wire for power and grounding(big 3 upgrade and big amps)..which you can then split via a distribution block to 4 gauge for smaller amps(which require 4Gauge).

8 gauge for the subwoofers..12 or 14 gauge for the midrange speakers and for deck/processing power..

And remote wire..

Have alot of brands out there i use Stinger..Hyperflex 0 & 4Gauge & remote wire..

what products did you decide to buy.

[GVTrini07]

We have numerous brands mentioned. Does these brands have a particular model to use? Or ah could just go by ah shop an say gee meh ah B&C dey or ah Fital Pro dey fada... iz fyaz ah wah gee dem? I know the OP asked about brands but would it be beneficial to put up some model numbers of the said brands? If you have a little more time, maybe a frequency response chart or TS specs and a brief explanation on the choice? He did say he is a "noob". If we educate him properly he will be able to make an informed decision on his own. Just saying.

I have not used any of the above so I don't have a clue...

[shake d livin wake d dead]

if you using B&C 10's the model is 10md26, 18 sound 10's (10m600) rcf 10's (l10 750yk),not to sure about the fatal pros though.

[Wotless Boi]

what products did you decide to buy.

I went with these products:

Speakers
BNC 4- 6 of 10's 10md 26 models

Subwoofers

u say u went with 4-6 wardens ?

what size subs did u get & what vehicle is they set going into


didnt see any processing in ur list - look at audiocontrol dqxs or dbx driverack pa+ ....

[shake d livin wake d dead]

processing?? is either ur using 4 10's or 6 10's B&C I'm confused same with woofers, if you state how much then we would know what amps to tell you to buy.alpine is a real good buy,for your highs there are many different brands out there,good quality highs I'd use the B&C drivers, if you looking for something rather cheap but plays really good try selenium 225ti drivers................

I'm gonna be using 6 10's B&C, I'm using 4 of the woofers. What B&C drivers are good? i was thinking some rcf drivers and horns. but what you guys using would like to experiences to. Also what amps to use i'm stuck on that

Thanks

pics?

[- Rovin's car audio -]

is this in trinidad or in d usa ? ...

[shake d livin wake d dead]

rovin may have a better idea as to what amps to use for those woofers, I believe they're rated at 2500 rms each? so you have the option of use 1 amp per woofer, 1 amp per 2 woofers or 1 amp for all
my top pick would be

stetsom 2k5( 4)
2 stetsom 5k
1 stetsom 14k for all subs

Thanks, i will look into them amps and also PM Rovin about the amps and ting to use

[- Rovin's car audio -]

had a feeling ur a trini in d usa - no biggie , stuff will cost even cheaper than here in T&T

2500wrms might only tickle those wardens , seen some youtube vids where ppl have 1 14k stetsom on a pair



but i wouldnt advise that unless ur a pro & know what ur doing , around 4k each shud be good

did u already order d subs ? - u can do like a soundigital 16k amp & (4) dual 2ohms subs so that 1 amp will push all 4 subs

check ssa forum IA section since those guys have more experience & will advise u better ...

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Op do you have a good enough current supply for the products you may need?? be a little more precise in your current upgrade so we would know if you're missing anything.
