Car Audio Anyone? - Blu-ray Forum

Tanman19az · 01-12-2008, 06:29 AM

I'm really big into car audio. I wanna see who else in this forum has a great sound system in their car. I have Infinity Kappa speakers all the way around 6.5s in the front and 6x9s in the back. I have them hooked up to a Rockford Fosgate P-400 4 channel amp. Then in the trunk I have a 12 inch Alpine Type R powered by a Rockford Fosgate P-1000 mono amp. It sounds so nice and clean. I love just getting into my car. I wish I could put my samsung in there to watch movies hahaha. What do you guys have?

Running a Pioneer 7" in dash DVD/nav touch screen display with 5.1 surround. Alpine speakers all the way around and then a JL Audio 1000/1 amp pushing a JL Audio 13W7.

Wow dude! you must either work for Pioneer or you are very loyal to them. I love Pioneer for their decks and their in-dashes. I have a deh-9800BT cd player and i love it. The bluetooth is amazing!

Aw, you guessed it! I could not resist responding to this thread. I am very loyal to the brand, though. We are glad you like your DEH-P9800BT.

SlaughterX · 03-29-2010, 09:12 PM

What ever happened to the old Car Audio thread? Anyway I just bought a Pioneer AVH-P3200BT last week, which will be installed in 2 days! Using my old Pioneer amp and Premier subs.

Polygon · 03-29-2010, 11:18 PM

I redid the system in my Stealth not too long ago. It sounds great, but it needs a little bit more depth so I'm going to add an Infinity Basslink soon. I also replaced the stock power antenna. I also still need to do a better job of mounting the AUX and USB inputs in the center console and I'm going to sleeve and heatshrink the cables going to the amp.

Head Unit: Clarion DXZ785USB
Mids (6 1/2")/Tweets (1"): Focal 165KF Components
Rears (6" x 9"): Polk dB650
Amp: Rockford Fosgate Punch 200-2

Pioneer AVIC-N4, Pioneer components all around, Fosgate 800x4, 2 15" Kicker L5, MMATS 3500.1, kinetic battery, and a 200amp alt

Downhere · 03-31-2010, 02:08 PM

I have a nice Pioneer Deck with Alpine speakers. I know, it's not as cool as some of the other set-up's but it sounds amazing to me. In the future I may add a sub, just to fill out the bottom end a bit more. Whenever I get my next car, I'll probably go all out.

DC_Street · 03-31-2010, 02:19 PM

I would post pictures of my set up...but it is all hidden so my car looks completely factory

I have Polk MM for the doors powered by a 1000watt MB Quart amp
10" MB Quart sub powered by a 600 watt Rockford Fostgate amp
then I have a Sony CD player...really the only thing visble

. The sub is visible as well if you open the back door but it is a black sub and with my tinted windows you really can't see it from outside. The amps are hidden where my spare tire would go.

I switched both my front and back stock speakers of my Honda Civic to Sony Xplod with a Sony Xplod reciever i also have 2 12 inch subs but they are really crappy same with the amp they were just laying around my garage and one day i decided to install them on my car, the subs and amp dont even have a name brand, but it sounds decent.

i also recently bought a 10'' Rockford Fosgate sub but i just need to build a box for it.

NJ_RAMS_FAN · 01-26-2011, 03:00 PM

just recently replaced my stock radio.

Sony DSXS200X
Alpine Type-S SPS-600c in the front
Alpine Type-S SPS-600 in the back.

Alpine MRP-F300 - Amplifier - V-Power - 4-channel (nothing too powerful)

DonRSD · 01-26-2011, 10:24 PM

drmittens · 05-27-2011, 02:33 AM

Finally put my 2 MMATTS 3.0 12"s in the trunk
Got them running off of my MMATTS 1400.1 class d amp.

Nothing but the best quality for my Lex.
Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds great.

Removed the stock sub from the rear deck and what a difference.

Can't wait to build new custom boxes for DonRSD and I.
