Lets go ahead and take a look at the Kicker SS Series SS65.2. Kicker never seems to stop putting out great products and they have done it again with the Kicker SS Series SS65.2. I got my first pair of Kicker SS Series SS65.2 about a week ago for reviewing and I was very impressed by the sound that it could put out, especially that it only needs 100 watts to produce.

Rockford Fosgate Power Stage 1 T115D4 car subwoofer review. The new Power Stage 1 T115D4 is just a beast of a 15″ subwoofer. A lot of people have been asking for reviews of Rockford Fosgate and I decided that the Rockford Fosgate Power Stage 1 T115D4 would be a great start. This sub slams, very hard. A lot of reviews that I have read online agree as well.

Car stereo receivers, or CD players, are not the most important thing when it comes to SPL or SQ, but it is still a couple of things that need some consideration, even if you plan on having all of your car speakers and subwoofers powered by amplifiers. Features and looks are probably going to get a lot of consideration when choosing a car stereo. The most important thing, in my mind, is going to be preamp voltage, if you will be using amplifiers on all of your speakers.

Car amplifiers, or amps, and another big piece of the car audio puzzle. If you going to be using the amp to power midrange speakers and tweeters, you will want to look for a AB amplifier that is multi channel. If you are planning on powering subwoofers, you will probably want to look for a class D mono amp. You also have to look at the RMS and peak rating on your speakers. If the amplifier going to be use to power subwoofers, you have to know how you are going to wirer the subs. Positive to positive, negative to negative, parallel and series and how this affects ohms and how a drop in ohms affects to output of the amplifiers. You also have to make sure the ohm load matches the ohm of the subwoofer as well. Don’t worry, i will soon having wiring diagrams for you to use. Car amplifier reviews will be available in the car audio blog.

Car Subwoofers, or Subs, is where the fun starts, but again you may need different type of subwoofer drivers depending on SPL vs SQ. You will also have to keep in mind the air space required per subwoofer, watts, RMS and peak, and size. Subwoofers also come in more than one shape now. You have round, square and triangle subs to choose from. Subwoofers also come in 2, 4 and 8 ohms with both single and dual voice coils. Other things to know and understand when buying a subwoofer is listed below. You can also read the car audio blog to get my reviews of all different types of car audio equipment including car subwoofer reviews.
