irish al Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Who will have the loudest[8] boot in Scotland [] Me []
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 Al PMSL m8 nae nae mr wilks Pioneer verses Genesis? mmmmmmm Na LOL M8
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 My point Exactly al Pioneer cheaper mid range poor rms figures Genesis top end over the average advertised rms figure 35% over and a little costly, in fact one of my Dual Mono Extreme would power all in your motor mate. Note i said one of them PMSL[][] Head Unit 8600 and the Audio Control EQL in there too Kappa Infinity Ref Series Mids front and rear 12 Sub also Infinity 12.1 ref Kappa series, Yes your right quality that counts[] Craig Soon to be the loudest best quality sounding boot in Scots Scoob[] Forgot the 2 off 10" JL audio subs too lol[]
irish al Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Two Dual Mono Extreme ?? Very nice, suppose ill be second loudest boot in SS then []
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 Al Who mentioned 2? there are 4 genesis amps going in buddy [st] lol Craig
irish al Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Four of these http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product/p...ts_id/4380.html
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 No am not that rich welll not yet LOL 2 off Duals and 2 off others blocks one will be hidden in the custom stealth box for the 12 sub http://genesis-ice.com/ Series III Bad boys Craig
irish al Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Interisting, but theres no way one of those would power everything ive got in my car either.
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 pmsl Read up on rms and peaks mate Pioneer are pants in amp terms[W] Genesis are the dogs dangles [li] With the correct wiring splits and eqs one would drive 4 sets of mids and tweets and 4 subs to the same as your 2 pioneers buddy Not getting into a pi555ing contest here bud, i know my ICE and sound systems of all kinds, it was my job for long enuff in a professional manner[] Trust me on this one. What does the likes of beckham, Coulthard, etc have fitted to there motors? Genesis End off[]
irish al Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Do you remember it was me you met that day at Ray Smith ??
irish al Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 The Dual Mono Extreme is ony a two channel amp rated at 2 x 200 @ 4ohm, Aye it would drive 4 sets of mids and tweets and 4 subs but would sound shite. Even then thats at 14.4 volt form the head unit which it will never ever supply ??
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 Aye And it cost me a bacon roll and a cup oh tea, Did you get that boost gage fixed? And i saw and hear your set up. End off topic, I would not run a pioneer in my van am afraid Genesis will pi55 all over kenwood alpine pioneer etc etc in rms and output freq etc They do not come any better trust me Craig
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 Thats why we run capacitors, EQLs two batteries and other little tweeks That one amp would burn out every speaker in your car within 30 minutes running at 20 to 30% gain, when wired and split correctly am afraid Look again at the ACTUAL RMS figures on the genesis site, then look at the ACTUAL RMS capacity of your Speakers!and indeed your amps......shocking really the peek to rms drop on the Pioneer , alpine, sony, kenwood etc I have installed more sound systems than most and as i said trust me, even the lad who is doing my Pro install this time round, his jaw dropped and thats his business, Advised having the windows open when switching on system.........never to be run higher than 45% gain..................He has never seen the likes, after 22 years of installs...... How high are the gains on Pio's ken's Sony's etc etc screwed to the max because the rms levels are so low SAMPLE FROM PIONEER AMP Specifications PRS-A500 Maximum Output Power 1x 600 W DIN power output (W) (DIN45324, +B = 14.4V) 2 x 140 W or 1 x 500 W (4 Ohm) Cont. power output (RMS), 14.4V (20-20kHz/4ohms) 2 x 100 Watt Cont. power output (RMS), 14.4V (20-20kHz/2ohms) 2 x 150 Watt Cont. power output (RMS), 14.4V (Bridged 4 ohms) 1 x 300 Watt 50% DROP OFF SAMPLES GENESIS SPECIFICATIONS ST60 ST100 Dual Mono Dual MonoExt.

irish al Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Doesnt really matter if they go up, down left or right. What matters as you said is the end rms output, if you spend the money you will get the rms output no matter what type of amp you use. Its not my fault pioneer quote stupid peak power figures to sell thier stuff. They pro installing you system obviously hasnt installed too many top notch systems if his jaw dropped at what you are putting in. Its is good, better than mine as i said but nothing to get that excited about to be honest. Just settle petal and keep calm !! Looking forward to hearing/seeing it when uve finished. Al
Iaing Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 And why not have a good old fashioned sound off when its finished [] Iain []
craig mac Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 No point really The figures and set ups say it all Iain pop down to see me Thursday/Friday you can have a wee look and listen mate [] Craig Its all in good fun [A]
