New Audio set up.. .Opinions?
I know its not Honda related, but oh well. lol.
I decided i wanted to run a new setup in my Explorer. Previously, I had 4 10inch Bazooka El1004's in a box i built dead on specs, Bazooka ACH75.2 i believe it was, Pmiller ****. I am usually not down with the cheaper stuff, but at the time i was on a budget and wanted a real cheap thumper. I got the subs for $20 a piece new on close out and the amp for like $200 or so. It worked awesome for what they were.
But i decided to move back up to my grassroots.
I got one of my old classic Soundstream Class A 10.0's back from the person i sold it to years ago. I am gonna try out the new Soundstream subs. i was gonna pair up 2T4-12 Tarantulas, but at 500w a sub, just didnt think i was optimizing them. So i decided to order 1 of them instead to give it a full CLEAN 1000w. I picked up a Massive 2Farad Cap with Digi display, prob gonna use an Audiocontrol 3.1 for the line driver purposes to get more voltage to that amp. Anyone who knows Soundstream knows they love extra signal voltage. So other than that for now i have an Alpine CVA 1005 set up with al the goodies with that. Stock components other than that(until i make a desicion on the rest)
But what do you think of my setup soo far? I am leary about the new Soundstream stuff, but the specs on this sub look kick ***. And i have been devoted Soundstream user since day one. Always loved their products. The box i am prob gonna do 2.2ft3 vented like they suggest, firing toward the gate. And making a flushmount rack possibly with some small fans i have for the amp and cap. Other than that willprob wrap the box and rack in tan Vinyl or leather to match the interior and make some beauty panels to cover everything up to look stock if needed.

Re: (rcurley55)
