How should I build my woofer box, and how should I wire the amp?

Question:
I've looked all over the web and I didnt find a clear definition. Here is the two questions:

Does anyone know how to take out a tape player out of a mini?


I've decided that I will build my own box. For my setup, I'll be using two 12 inch pioneer TS-W301R subs. For the amp, I'll most likely use the sony XM2002GTR. Here are links to both:

I tired to make sure i have properly wired my stereo before installing it but it want work?


Now here is the question. For my box, It will be a simple rectangular prism design. Do I seperate the speakers by butting a divider in the middle? Or, do I leave the space open?

How to connect my second amp up to my highs and do I need a crossover?


This obviously leads to another question. Should I bridge the two channels of the amplifier, then run that out to the two subs, or should I connect each sub to its own channel? Thanks.

Run the subs in stereo. You could bridge them by wiring in series. DO NOT BRIDGE TO THE SUBS IN PARALLEL. As long as the subs are receiving the same audio signal, you do not need a divider. Technically, in stereo, it is possible that the left and right speaker could get different signals and cancel each other out. In most cases there would be little to no cancelation, but it's definitely possible. There is no harm or benifit to putting a divider in the box if both subs receive the same signal. If you are venting the box, I would make it a single chamber and bridge the amp to the speakers in series. If you have not yet bought the subs, buy the DVC instead. You can wire them in series and then parallel to give you a 4 ohm mono load. if you already have the subs, don't sweat it, the bridged 8 ohm output should be the same as the sum of the 4 ohm stereo output so about 400 watts according to your link. The difference in output from 400 w vs 500 watts is very very small. BTW, shape of the box makes little to no difference. Standing waves is something that was thought to make a huge difference about 20 years ago, but today they know it means almost nothing.

Itrips can hondas use itrips?


Good catch on the subs, I didn't see that. You shouldn't excede the RMS rating on the subs. BTW, those prices stink. You can definitely beat them. The TSW307d4 would be great for the amp you're looking at. they're about 400w rms. I know a guy with the 10" version and they sound great. I would expect the same out of the 12's. They run about $20 more than you were looking at, but you can probably get them for about the same price on annother website. ;-)

I'm having 1988 Dodge Dynasty Head Unit Wireing Harness Troubles..?


You'd be better off finding two 4 ohm SVC 200 watt RMS subs and wiring each sub to each channel.

I keep blowing amplifiers and i dont know why?


See my site for information on sub wiring methods, enclosure design and construction and other tips http://spkrbox1.spaces.live.com...

I have everything plugged in to my radio, sub, amp,etc. and my amp has power and is on, but my sub won't work.

If the cd player in my car doesn't support mp3, then what is the name of the format ordinary cd tracks are

That amp is fine for those subs. Those subs are 800 watts peak. I use a program to build my boxes called WinISD. Its free and you can find it here. www.linearteam.org/winisd.html... Actually bridging it will give you less power because the amp is 4 ohm stable in bridged mode. the only option in bridged mode would be to run them in series at a 8 ohm load.

Have you lost or forgotten your radio code due to a flat battery?

leave the box open the more space the deeper and louder the bass will be. what will make it even louder and hit twice as hard is to make the box ported where it can breath good not to big of a port though. just like an inch opening the height of the box. and yes bridge the amp you want them speakers to peak out where you can be heard from along way.
