Am I the only person who mis-read that? lol

There's quite a few cars in the features section with large installs. I'm going to have some decent audio in my saloon but its not going to OTT style wise, so will probably be quite boring to look at lol

[Jamienova]

whats wrong with the loudest then?

[Adam]

Big installs and nova's dont really go together.

In fact, i cant think of one car on here with more than just a simple sub/amp, and some speakers.

really over rated and exaggerated power ratings.

the one subwoofer at first was loud, and i mean loud! well worth spending the money on quality. it was a single 12 inch jl w6 sub.

now he got 6 jlw3v3 and thats louder but alot more money put into it but its ridiculously loud and bassy! well worth the money spent

[just vaux trev]

rattle,rattle,rattle,rattle,rattle,rattle
i hate the rattle of chav machines who just stick as many cheap subs in as they can and turn it up, grrrr

I see the install was done by Global Ice Wired.. are they still going? Still round the corner from Metro salvage?

[BIGS]

I really dont understand when people put like 4+ subs in the back. you dont need then. ive got one 12 inche vibe space and that alone is louder and sounds better then my mate who has 5 sony ones. fair enough if you do it for the look. but for loudness you dont need that many

vibe compared to sony....

its like comparing netto beans to heinz beans. quality is more expensive than cheap crappy stuff.

alot of people do it for looks but also do it to enter spl competitons and some shows, not major competiton ones but the little piddly ones you get like a burnout competition.


I see the install was done by Global Ice Wired.. are they still going? Still round the corner from Metro salvage?

yea still going strong as far as im aware.

[BIGS]

Yea i know what your saying. yea i do agree if its only for show and they want 4 or 5 plus subs to fill up a boot i can see why as its much cheeper to do so then with sony then 4 or 5 vibe ones. but what im saying is when they think 4 - 5 sony subs will be louder then say one vibe it just wont happen. well from what ive seen and it will be cheeper to spend that bit more on one good sub then more on lots of subs that wont be a good sounding or louder.

[bigbened]

i started building this with phoenix gold subs and a 4000w amp, sounded loud but sold the car before i finished it.

i have been trying to squeeze them into my caddy pickup but it just isnt going to work i dont think
http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m190/bigbened/DSCN1418.jpg

[Alex.]

I reckon I've got the biggest speaker

http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f287/untaimedgirl/Misc/DSCN3225.jpg

It's what monkeh is leaning on. lol

[Jack]

Just like to add that is the one and only speaker in that car lol

[craig green]

Probably images quite well being central...

Just like to add that the TD has 4 speakers btw. 2 of which are 6x9's.

[Mike]

One of my old Nova's, note the 15" sub ;)

not big but it will do for now and its the most that my funds could strech too

[Tazzy]

so far my install consists of 2x alpine type-r 12" subs and a kicker 800w amp, quite happy with what ive chose!

[FUSION X16XE]

http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb121/beattyhoskins/100_1065.jpg

does the job. got a rear strut brace on the way so its guna have to go, think ill got for somethink like last of the nova sr's...

[ianglanister]

ive got two 12inch jbl 1000watt subs in a dual box,1400watt amp powering them, 6x9s on the parcel shelf jbl ones not sure on watt around 280 i think,small comps on the sides of parcel shelf(where standard ones sit) and front kenwood comps yet to go in(door pods are needed soon!! lol) will get some pics soon

[Martin]

Meh 6x9s make me wanna be sick lol..


in my white nova i had a JBL 4channel amp, a JBL 2channel amp, set of JBL fronts, and 2 12" Infinity Kappa-Slappa Subs, with a Alpine 9646453673R H/U

could make a full bottleof pop dance on my roof also vibrated my garage door that much it nearly shut. sold the stuff when i was jobless wish i never now but hey..

[FUSION X16XE]

i dont understand it!! why dont people like 6x9s ??

[Martin]

there point less

if you put 6x9s on a parcel shelf above a sub or to.. the sub will vibrate the 6x9 while its trying to vibratein its own way and it just ****ed the sound up imo

[Lucky Luke!]

This is my old demo car that i built for work and also a customers car that i did.

[blackjack]

loudest.com kit sucks donkey cock.... bench testd the supposid 3k mono amp and it produce no more than 1200 of mucky distorted bass. even played treble with the low pass fitler.. there is no overload protection, undersized heatsink, very dodgy components internally, and not at all stable..

avoid anything by loudest.com like the plague

[blackjack]

ps. nice to see pics of my car on page 3 lol...

[blackpoolbouncer]

@ blackjack,nice to see a fellow TA member on here
in all fairness i dont think theres gonna be anyone on here that could beat blackjacks nova due to it being one of the loudest in europe iirc
my old sytem used to be loud,should put it in something but ive stripped the nova and the sub and amp are very heavy
sony black panel head unit (old school one not xplop)
alpine type R 6.5" speakers up front
directed 700/6 for the fronts
solid audio f2500d
DD9515 special with extra beefy bottom end tripple stack instead of dual in a 5cuft 40hz box
2nd battery and 0 gauge

[blackjack]

u got a solid? lucky bugger.... i hope u got the alternator and batts u WILL need for it lol

[novait]

Plus a PG DEQ. Made 132Db, but was built for SQ. No rattles either ;) Dynamat is your friend lol

[BenNova]

just out of interest does no one who drives a Nova with fairly hard suspension find that bumps just kill your cd player, and make it constantly cut out and skip ??

[novait]

depends how cheap ur cd player is...lol...mines fine and its on spax coliovers :)

[mikey14sr]

the high-end kenwoods I've had were allways allright over bumps, even when playing mp3's.

[Martin]

ive not been in one nova/corsa with stiff sus that has done that..:thumb:

alpine FTW;)

[BenNova]

well i did only pay ?30 for my CD player so maybe there is my fault! My mate also has the same problem as me, but then again i wouldn't like to speculate how much the cheap skate spent on his CDplayer either, But on a serious note, if yopu guys dont have problems with breaking any of your ICE when your driving country lanes at reasonable speeds i may get a few speakers installed, got some in my garage. Are door speakers easy enough ? :confused:

[burgo]

you want to get your self a head unit that takes memory cards/sticks.... tis the future i tell the. digital quality and no skipping at all

[H15 NVA]

i had Golf mk3 gti and system in that was Sony MD head unit, sony equaliser, 2x Kenwood amps,1 x 4ch 400w for 2 sets of JBL mids and tweeters, 1x 2ch 800w for my 2 Rockford fosgate 12"s, sounded awesome and the equaliser made alot of diff, has 2phone inputs(fr and rear) but has 3out puts, front rear and sub so everything adjustable and has all the filters and gains there too. was very very loud but stil very clear.

sold golf without the system but only bothered puttin the subs in the nova, then stripped eveythin when xe'd it and had cage buckets etc.

[silvertornado_sr]

only got the one sub in some 6x9's and soon to be doing a full boot build in next few weeks :D

[Nevo]

Well in my little nova i have :
2 x JBL 1000 watt subs - paid ?30 for pair
2 x Kenwood 6x9's 240 watt - paid ?15 for pair
JVC Head unit - Paid ?30
Brand new and in mint condition just looking for a half decent amp at minuet and currently making sum pods for my front door's Ive obviously disconected the rear speakers and plan on doing same to front once i have ma lil podlings !

http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee136/nevison_01/Image017.jpg


Ps can anyone suggest some reasonable priced half decent amp that would handle my subs ?

[just vaux trev]

[just vaux trev]

[CoolTiger]

lol and 4 other speakers u cant see

[ednovasr2]

there ok as a budget set up with lots of volume. Just dont expect it to sound great or last long!

Mate of mine bought there amps for his 2500watt JBL 12" subs and they lasted just outside of their warranty 13months (but then he only used them about once a week in a 1989 mini, weekend car!)

JL audio is the way forward!

You wired a 2/4ohm amp up to a sub in 1ohm configuration, then wondered why it caught fire? :wtf:

Nicks system is awsome lollollol

[NovaLad]

''I'' Didn't wire up the sub my mate did.

In theory he owes me a amp as it's his fault.

[Nick]

Well it's not really his fault !? It's your fault for buying incompatible components.

I have the most L337 sound system.

[NovaLad]

Well it's not really his fault !? It's your fault for buying incompatible components.

The components were compatable.

They were just put together wrong.

If i wanted to do something like this where would my spare wheel be going ????



(why dont they just strap it to the bottom of the car and i wouldnt have any trouble then !!! )

[NovaLad]

Saxo's and 106's have the wheel under the car and IMO it's a stupid place twice now my mates bracket that holds it in has come off then we have had to go chase the wheel.

lol , im pretty sure are Zetec S use to be like that but that was a lil buggar to undo , you have to undo a bolt in the bott then get under the car and mess about .... , a think what am gunna do is just strap it some how to the back of the rear seat , then make my frame so if i do ever need to get it then al just lean the seat forward (not that i hope i do , lol ) , that way i can have my boot install with the subs and amp . also . but i havent had a look yet , i need to see which is taller the seat or the tyre ... lol

[NatJK]

lol whose got the smallest install, original nova speakers, no 6x9's, lol and a kappa infinity active sub. Plus some ancient jvc stereo. Sounds fine to me, lol if the speakers in the front go a bit buzzy just hit it and there fine lol!

the one subwoofer at first was loud, and i mean loud! well worth spending the money on quality. it was a single 12 inch jl w6 sub.

now he got 6 jlw3v3 and thats louder but alot more money put into it but its ridiculously loud and bassy! well worth the money spent

[NovaLad]

gettin a big install soon! all from the loudest.com! so lets see whos got the biggest install

pictures very much welcome:)

Not read the rest of the thread but please don't get anything from loudest.com.

They lie about the power ratings on their products etc..

My amp from them lasted 24 horus then set on fire in my boot.

I have been trying to claim the money back for it from them for over a month and today it got confirmed i would get a full refund in 5 working days.

[ednovasr2]

their cheap and powerfullish but not worth it if you want ever a half decent sound!

A mate has had one in his MINI for the last 2 years with no prob's running two Vibe subs. loud yes but in the car sound quality is poo.

Fire ehhhh did you have a in-line fuse under bonnet as well in the boot and in the amp?

never heard of a amp fire unless under fused n norm the wiring that smulders then catches fire!

Hope wasn't too bad a fire? any pic's?

[NovaLad]

No it just smoked loads! seen a few flamey bits then rips it out the car damaging all the wiring and MDF floor and put it out.

[ck]

[ck]

yeah its matts corsa. i went with him in it to PVS. we got told off for playing it too load n the camp site oops lol.
