Hey man, I like a good sounding system and the Mach 460 is good enough for me. Speed sensitive volume....the fast I go the louder it gets, the slower I go the lower it gets

yea my sounds CAN be loud, but i like the sound quality, crisp highs, strong lows and warm mids is what i like...just like im gonna build my motor to take to the strip, and at the same time i can dB drag...
i want one or two 10" subs for where my spare tire is. They do make music much better. Nothin like hearin Lars bang away at the drums, and somewhat feeling it bump along with it.
nothing TOO bad, like car rattling crap that you cant even hear the normal music anymore
it jus dont sound right without the thump of a high wattage sub of course they can be really loud and obnoxious thats why you dont have it turned up all the way all the time...duh...thats like jus because you have nos you have to be using it all the time when ever you are driving you use nos to go fast when needed and a system to show off and cuz we like it

10's catch rock sounds better and large subs catch the larger bump better like in rap and stuff. Vise versa 10's won't catch some of the notes and 12's will catch others. I have 2 10' Infinity kappa's, Alpine face, Kenwood Tweeters, MTX RT 330watt amp, and stock speakers all around. Sounds pretty good to me, but I listen to a lot of rock with rap.

what do you have the 2 15's in, what size hcca's.. i love those amps 1/4 stable the 250 will blow about 800wtts continuous at the right load
It's all about personal preference. If I was just racing then performance would be the way to go, but I don't just race. I got bored with the factory unit and decided to make a change. I am happy I did. Check out the pics.....:)My 03 DSG Mach 1
Nothing wrong with a nice system, subs def improve the quality of any music, I hardly ever use mine even half way up but they're def nice to have. I've got two older/better MTX 12's and an MTX amp I got from a friend for cheap, along with boston acoustics speakers and a sony flip down deck. The deck and speakers were in the car when i bought it. I like it, def nice on the highway and such when the wind noise in my vert gets bad. Also if I'm not mistaken this is the "Audio/visual Electronics" section of the forums? I think stereos are an ok thing to talk about here?

I have a Pioneer Premere DEH-P940MP head (6.5volt pre-amp outs). A lanzar 1800w rms 1ohm stable and a power acoustik Mofo 15 (the most powerful 15 I could find....sounds great). I'm planning on getting some pioneers for the front and back as well. I have it wired up with xm radio and setup to use my Ipod (40gb). I sounds sweet...very clear. I have to say, regardless of all the hype with alpine, pioneer has the clearest sound of all the heads out there. Alpine just has some neat toys to add on that pioneer doesn't offer.

You're wrong on that one dude. That's a very common misconception. 10s and 12s sound no different. I've got a ten that hits at 15Hz easy. Some 12s can't even touch that.

i would have to disagree with the above two posts, first pioneer is not as clean as several radio's on market, nach's are probably the cleanest, second tens as a majority do produce tighter harder "feeling base due to increased cone speed. twelves as an average tend to play lower and deeper... what kind of ten is playing clean and audible at 15 better yet what kind of encloser are backing it with
I run all Kenwood Excelon, DVD, 6x9 w/ tweets in front, tweets in sunroof, 4x8 mids rear, 2 12" subs KACX401M amp and KACX301T amp.... I love the way my system sounds.... and the amps light up blue lol

RE XXX Vented Enclosure of course but didn't sound the best (Obviously and I wasn't talking about just SQ either) so was redone.
Nak has the cleanest sound? Ever tried the Denon? It's all preference simple as that. Everyone's ear is different.
I remember we got into this argument a while back on a couple other audio boards and found that there really isn't that great of a difference but I can't remember which ones plus it's 5am and I am tired as hell. But the fact is a 12 can sound just as good as a 10. It has alot to do with enclosure type, size area, car it's in and where, etc. But other then that the 10s 12s 15s argument will go on forever.

i agree with that, the argument has been and will be around forever, i currently am back to sealed enclosures as i have been craving tight bass, and i don't have the space to run a ported.. denon head units are great, but the ugly naks are clean as hell.. look like factory stock trash but they do sound great. i bleed clarion though, still running the first clarion fold out(don't remember the model number through a 9300 dsp/eq proccessor and i love the sq i get from her

Yeah I've got the HX-D10...Only paid 250$ for it too LOL. Great unit and SQ. I remember when it came out it was like 700-800$. Dual Burr Brown 24 bit DACs with 128x oversampling and best of all.....no internal amp. At this point one of the best HUs for the money.
The Naks are stock looking and all but they have some issues or at least did with the skipping, sub upgradeability etc.
