when u guys talk about front splits... are u talking about the front door speakers?

yes speakers are called "splits".
can get in 2-way or 3-way front splits with crossover or not.
i'm getting some utopia be XD

anyone know a good quality sub? my budget is 1.5k a sub.
i'm currently thinking of Focal 33WX2, apparently won subwoofer of the year for SQ

[sKy.xD]

A bloody great sound quality sub! Just make sure you make the right enclosure for it, as if you don't it will sound fairly shit. If you prefer softer subs and SQ this is definitely the right sub.

Also you might want to have a listen to them first. We all love to achieve sound quality to an extent but don't expect a massive amount of bass, as in they won't sound very loud.

I was close to snatching one of these cheap but i still love the heart thumping bass.

whats difference between 2way and 3way? and what does crossover offer compared to just normal?

[sKy.xD]

2 way is a woofer and a tweeter. 3 way adds a mid range tweeter. Each play the low, mid and high frequencies. Crossovers separate the frequencies to the separate speakers.

If im wrong someone correct me

[black8thgen]

ohh i see, so obv crossover would be more sound clarity in each range?

ah thx for clearing it up =D.

1.5 g can be spent in such a better way..

mm i wasted 2.5 grand on my old entry level system.. regretted it straight away.
not worth it at all.. im so happy i sold it for the same price a month later
i got over it so fast.

if your goign to do it make sure you have a decent amp to run it..

i'm running Audison Thesis Quattro (4channel) with Bit One processor (high level). Was thinking of getting 2 x 33WX2 subs running off Thesis Uno.

[QUOTE=.k.;2300114]One of my mates has his tweeters there so I'll ask how he did it. He has the tweeter sticking up out of those two areas and the mesh is gone I think.. I'll try get a picture.

Anymore info on this?

[cracker]

atm i only have a high powered sub and it is satisfying all my needs, both audio and sexually. i'd only upgrade the speakers and whatnot once i blow them, if i ever do. i really cant see why you guys want speakers so badly? i was under the impression our stockies werent that bad? someone said it was made by a subsidiary of alpine or alpine themselves.

[sKy.xD]

I think most of us got that impression when first jumping into our car. Once you get into a car with a decent sound system of course then you will notice a difference.

Put our stock speakers on a board with aftermarket speakers and you will definitely notice a difference then haha. Some people are really into their audio so stock speakers will never be enough.

Also just because its made by alpine doesn't mean they will be good. Their own aftermarket speakers aren't so good either.

[black8thgen]

yeah im thinking to just get a sub and an amp? cos the stock speakers seem pretty clean and give some base. =].

[sKy.xD]

Yeah that's fine. I had 2 x alpine type s subs and they were alright with the stock speakers. If you get really good subs that's when they will drown out stock speakers.

What amp and sub were you looking to buy?
