I"m comin out of retirement for Car Audio

[EricB]

there was this guy from cleveland who came to a car show here in a honda truck. he 3 soundstream components set in each door (4). he had a thousand watt soundstream amp on each door. he had 2 15's with a thousand watt amp on each one.

everybody and their mother came to my house and told me that this guy got me on my mids and highs. I had retired from the music game years ago, but they Couldn't let it go. I guess that they thought highly of my vehicles.

I'm coming out of retirement now (for a little while anyway). I'm doing this to prove a point. I'm to lose a lot of my front stereo image, but so what. I'm going to make another concert of wheels. I post the picture later on today of my truck. I should have the finishing touches done by tomorrow. this was a 3 1/2 week project.

my high box with with my rockford fosgate ti15004 pushing it. this is the world's most powerfulest high's amp.

All Power series amps feature:
1/0 AWG inputs for power and ground connections
AMPHONAL audiophile C clamp speaker connections
4 Oz copper traces (2 - 3 times thicker than standard)
Stealth connections with removable cover to protect and hide connections and wires
12 or 24 DB per octave variable crossovers. These allow for the highest sonic purity, and the most adjustability!
TO-247 Mosfet output transistors. 60% more thermal dissipation than standard TO-220 outputs found in most amps
M.E.H.S.A. Maximum Efficience Heat Sink Application radically lowers thermal impedance of internal components
Aerospace grade double sided FR4 - 4 oz PC boards give over 100% more current capacity than standard circuit boards

nice ericb. wish you could do my car too

i love the highs box. Very well designed inside. I would love to hear it.

How do you have it networked? Internal crossover or separate terminals per crossover section? It looks like you have them individually wired since there isn't a x-over in the schematic.

 

[Crysalis]

Btw... where in cleveland? I live about 20 minutes away from cleveland.

I order two 18db 5,000hz crossover from parts express for the tweeters that will be here tomorrow. I needed super high powered passive crossver. I usually use active crossover but the 4 channel amp (I usually run 8 channels on my mid and highs) limits that. I also ordered to 100 watt stereo L pads. now I have the tweeter crossover at 6400hz@ 6db per octave and the mids running 400 hz to 5,000hz. the 8's handle everything below that. my son's friend drew that diagram as I didn't know how, so I left the crossover out

I don't know what part of cleveland. Funny thing, I called one on my 2 friend who had pictures of it. DJ wise pointed out that's it is on the computer that is at my house. he wanted me to fix a couple of things on it.

here are the pictures.

nice ericb. wish you could do my car too

thx

Good lord! That is killer. I think my 2 12" Kicker Comp CVR's with a 1000W Baja Amp hits hard, but I can't imagine what your truck is like.

I hope you listen to rap when you ride in that thing.

* On a side note, I guess we have some Northern-Ohioan's on TF. I'm about 45-50 Min. from Cleveland. Cedar Point? I'm about 15 min. from that.

 

[EricB]

yes, I'm from the CEO (Columbus). there are a lot of ohioians here.s
