Another question. So long as the sub is 8 inch, around 150 or less rms, and 4ohm. Would it work for the car????? I'm just wondering, cause If i shop around, and find something cheaper, or better quality, I just wanna know if I can use it.
Edit* Does it also have to be a dual voice, hooked in a series???
also, is the current sub the Kenwood KFC-W2005???
A) something cheaper in an 8" will not be of higher quality.
B) If you do it, do it right and get the best 8" you can.
C) Rated to 125W not 150W
D) The current kenwood is that POS I think
E) In regards to your previous post, when you set the gains you set them with the bass level set to 0, the volume turned up to 26, and the NF set to 13.
Actually...I'ma go on a bit of a tirade here:
Any audio system you use should have the Bass, Mids, and Trebles set at 0. No Loudness, No Bass Expansion, nothing. If you don't like the MSP's system, you can tweak the highs and mids +1 or +2 max. But the Bass should stay at 0. That's the best way to prevent distortion and clipping...
Basically...when you set the NF using the above methods, your NF level becomes your sub volume control. You can use it from 0-13, and alter it to whatever kind of music you're listening to. It now becomes useful as a control. But you WILL need to set the gain on the amp properly to take full advantage. (On the Kenwood it's called Sensitivity, I believe)
--EDIT--
F) Doesn't have to be DVC, just needs to present a 4 ohm total load.
