thoughts/experiances on pioneer ts-sw841d subs

[fr3ek]

Easy. Split one RCA in to two and plug in to the two white inputs. Split the other and plug in to the red inputs.

For bridged output (from what I can see), one sub will come off the top set, positive on the left most terminal, negative on the third from left. Repeat for other sub on the bottom set.

... yes you need RCA splitters

[badcf4]

yea I know how to....was just wondering if that was the best idea.....as I do have two preouts from the HU as well as a sub out.........maybe is better to use the two preouts instead ??? or no diff ??

and yea the whole bridging bit ive done all that before also.....

[fr3ek]

You could, but as these are front and rear preout, if you hit the fader button to control your speakers front to back, also you'll have one of your subs go louder or quieter than the other.

[badcf4]

ahhhh, yup thats exactly what i needed to know......so if I run it off the SW output, will It still fade out ?? or does it fade seperate from the rear fade ?? or not at all ???

I should go and have a play with the HU but I havnt and probably wont untill I chuck in the amp, which for the record I didnt get time to do today as I got busy

[grandell]

wtf Steven? why can't he use one set of RCA's and set the input to 2 channel?

and Greg, chances are it won't fade with the rears, but will have its own completely separate controls

Hmm... yes. Damn these flash Pioneer amps. I'm sure if I got to pick up the amp I would have seen that

Sub out is generally non-fading. Set your amps filters to off or all pass so you can adjust the filters from the head unit.

[badcf4]

well I hooked up the amp today and got it all under the seat and nice......and it didnt go ........

Untill I founmd the remote wire had come free of its crimp terminal !!!

IT LIVES !!!

But in definate need of some MDF I feels......good bass......but not quite wholesome enough.....

Still need to play with the HU and the gains etc but sofar im pretty happy

[XPLOIT]

Ideas stolen from an Oz forum:









That's in a 2001 Camry wagon. Seperate boxes built to fit in the sides there.

Mmm... Seas Lotus

[XPLOIT]

Awesome!

I want to do that!

Seas Lotus? Never heard of it

[fr3ek]

Seas have been made in Norway for nearly 60 years.

More Seas info.

[badcf4]

thats very cool but how the fuck do ya build a box like that ???

twice.......

and not fuck it up

[fr3ek]

Cut all the pieces at once.

Looks to be built from thin MDF, then the inside is bulked up with chopped strand mat. You can see a bracket below the sub, and one in the top right holding the box in.

[badcf4]

lol, yea Not my domain eh......cars/suspension/tyres/wireing is cool but I cant do that kinda stuff.

ill have to make a builder friend I think
