DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

good thing i just got rear ended...

 

Yeah i was on there the other day looking and all of the sudden everything was 15% off...

 

Mhmmmmmmmmm if you say so.

 

I haven’t. I’ve done minimal research on a system really.

I’m currently trying to figure out a solution for my rattling ass passenger seat.

 

you fricken know it!!

 

Yeah i feel you on that. I got new tires and all but 1 has a single row of weights except my rear passenger which im pretty sure is causing vibrations @ ~70mph. Not sure if i remembered to pull the wheel key off the lug yesterday before i tested the brakes after changing them... maybe on a search party looking for my wheel key...

I need that so i can take the truck back to discount and have them remount that tire and re balance it.

Shake is so bad one of my ammo cans almost fell off the rail. one of the nuts backed all the way off and the other one was barely holding on.

This could also be due to warped rear rotors... Have not got around to look at them yet.

 

Are you wanting to replace your head unit?

In thinking about resetting my gains on my amp to run the doors at 100w RMS at Vol 30 if i can get my gains that high. I noticed that my HU starts to cut back on bass alot after around Volume 37 or 38. So to combat this im going to set them at a lower volume, i will let you know how this works out.

during this time i will also be adding some polyfil to insides of my enclosures to fool my subs into thinking there is a bit more air space, and i will be re mounting the enclosures to the rear wall/floor. Pretty sure the other screws have rattled out.

Here is a link to my audio build thread if anyone is curious...

Nah I went through that whole phase, I like the way the stock radio looks. Which is strange because I pretty much wanna change the whole rest of the truck. I do wanna add one of those amps you suggested.

I’m even considering just replacing all the seats with a set of PRP daily drivers.

 

which amps were you talking about? The Alpine power pack or the AudioControl mini amps?

 

Those are the ones.

 

oh you want both? I think the alpine would be good for the doors, and i know that audio control amps run 300w rms. Probably a good combo if you are running a single sub.

 

$250 https://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_153783_AudioControl-ACM-1.300.html

 

Nah just one is all I would need I would assume. Just haven’t made up my mind on which one

 

So no sub then? I would go with the powerpack as its a little cheaper.

 

I may put a sub in one day but not currently. If I did I would probably only put an 8” in there. I mostly just want it to sound good I don’t wanna rattle bucket like I had back in high school

 

Better or good? Lil amps will get you better, not good

 

Good, I shouldn’t need more then 300w to sound good

 

What sub?

 

No sub

 

Depends on what speakers youre powering, make sure they match the amp
