RNS510, Amp & standard speakers.

[Soundofav6]

Then later when i want to add a sub i just use the passthrough outputs on the 4ch amp into the new 2ch amp which will drive the sub.

Also what is the dynamat for if I'm not touching the original speakers.? Should i remount the originals using dynamat, is that what you meant.?

Some one correct me if i am wrong, If Logzy was to run a 4 channel amp 1 RF processor and 1 Sub. He can bridge the rear channel from the amp to run the sub AND route the Rear speaker off the head unit into directly into the processor, ie by passing the amp ? I think I was told the RF processor doesn;t need RCA.
If this is too confusing forget it... my suggestion is for 1 amp and processor with subwoofer but you want 1 amp, processor and sub amp eventually right ?

ANyways, I am still new to processors, but I know the rockford needs a PDA for the setup Not sure about the JL. Don't know if a laptop would work ?? But if it is bluetooth ie wireless setup it would be so much easier too.

With the dynamat, it's really easy to use. It is improve the bass of the speakers. It dampens the vibration, giving more solid punch for the bass. Usually people do the whole door to have a more quite ride too. It is really easy to use, cut into shape peel the plastic and stick it onto the mounting surface of the speakers. Check out Mr@harisma dynamat JOB.

I know nothing about nothing, cept the RF one looks kewl and I'm buyin one

It says in the specs you can configure with a PALM PDA, A windows CE PDA or a Windows Laptop. (all using bluetooth obviously)

Sweet as

Btw I was inspired to do this due to this thread .. coz I wanna put a similar crappy all in one head unit in the Ovlov.. (I've got a Clarion DXZ785USB in the Golf so a processor is less critical) as I can't justify spending 3-4k on a decent nav/dvd/etc2 head unit on the car i hardly ever drive.

Wow my door is famous.

Umm the RF will except either high level speaker or low level RCA. It has a 150something point auto EQ fixing controlled via a palm which interfaces through bluetooth. If you use all 4 channels from the rear of your stock deck, it actually make 6 preouts:
Front left / right
Rear left / right
Sub / centre

The audiocontrol LC6 I think does it the same. It doesn't have EQ control though. The 3sixty.2 is awsome, 31band EQ, Controllable LP / HP 12db / 24db xovers with multiple points per channel, TA etc etc. The 3sixty.1 or JL will do.

Just a note, Audison is bringing one out as well, the Bit1. I'm sure it will be good ( and $$$ ).

Now if I had say $1400
Processor $500
Front Splits $450
Amp $300
Dynamat $90
Wiring $60

It's imbarrassing, I'm 23 but so far on subs:
*First sub cost $100 in a box. Went awesome I thought. Sounded like poo, blew it up.
*Replaced that with a Clarion DVC 12incher. Instant increase in control and SPL, thought it was a great step up, $175. Ported 2cuft.
*Thought it was time to upgrade, looked into and got a Boston 12.5lf. Wanted a small sealed box for the boot, it only needed 1cuft. RRP$699. I couldn't believe the increase in punch, the sub was awesome... until my mate borrowed my car and blew the fashizzle out of the coil. So then...
*I upgraded to the Boston G5 124, was offered it at cost price. RRP $799 at the time. Straight away the SQ was brilliant. I only wish that I had better fronts at the time to keep up. Plays 25Hz like its no problem, 3inch excursion helped. Did lack the punch I liked about the 12.5lf, was great firing it up and asking people what they though was back there, some guy thought there was 2x 15's lol. AAMI blew that one up so then...
*I auditioned and fell in love with the Oz ME 12.2. Keeping with the small box theme it fitted the bill perfectly. Has the punch of the older 12.5lf plus the rumble of the G5. What more can you ask for. ATM I wouldn't have anything else. RRP $699.

Sad I know....

Dude, it's a good effort in the time! My first car subs were purchased in 1986 and to my knowledge were pretty much the first subs anywhere. I bought them from the owner of one of Brisbane's bigger audio shops these days, and he only had the one set he imported at that time. A pair of 10" kenwoods. I was just SO cool in my mazda.

I blew them up on "Underneath the radar" by Underworld. Still laugh when I hear that song.....

I guess running them off a clarion equaliser free air into the boot wasn't the smartest move.

[Greg Roles]

What is really funny though, is Logs started on here looking for a basic install, and stereo-itis has struck another person.....

Lol there is that splits second when you know you have blown a sub, nothing is quite the same lol. I am going to out do everyone!! I blew up a Boston G5 playing R.E.M..... anyone care to challenge that lol??

I hate car stereo's, no matter how much you do, there is always something else....

FARK, tell me about it.
It all gets so complicated and I'm now totally confused.

Dont give me any more sugestions please, just tell me if this will work or not.
4ch from factory HU into JL processor.
from JL processor into 4ch amp.
out from 4ch amp to 4ch speakers.

then for sub,
use pass through from 4ch amp into 2ch amp
out from 2ch amp into subwoofer.

or for sub,
use sub out from JL processor into 2 ch amp then out to sub

This sounds good to me and non confusing.
Please give me a YES or NO

If your referring to me, stereoitis already struck hard, and I already had plans to do the stereo on the ovlov just hadn't seen those processors before so I kept putting it off (really can't justify the eclipse AVN6000 that I want)

The golf has a small install already (DXZ785USB + blt370 to 2 amps, clarion 4ch & audison Srx1, CD Technologies splits in the front, Clarion SRS1686 splits in the rear and a Rockford Fosgate Punch 10" - p310d4 sub)

I already plan to upgrade the clarion amp to an Audison in the golf, so i just need to build the rest of the system around a crappy fleebay all in one and some semi decent splits...

Lol thats what we have trying to tell you. The top option of using the RCA through the 4ch will work well if you use the 2x 150WRMS jaycar for the sub as the amp will have the external sub control knob ( to control the sub ).

JL or RF processor will be the question.....

Yeah even an Audison SRx4 will provide ample power for a decent set of splits and you can still power the rear Clarion splits.

[Soundofav6]

hahahha .. Logzy. the way you are going ...good luck stayin on budget. Be firm when you go in the shop.
I think you should just hand your shopping list to the sales guy and wait at the registers. Otherwise the sales guy's name is going on the wall for employee of the month for sure. Be very careful of his upsales.

[zedub]

nice... that was exactly the amp I was planning to put in... nice to see it will do the job

(and yeah, I'm powering both sets of splits now, that config wont change)

[Soundofav6]

We have member here that runs this exact set up. It is really nice SQ is good, build quality is very refined. I totally wouldn't mind it at all.

Answer is Yes. I see what y ou are asking, surely have the subwoofer signal processed as well.

When you get the products literally draw out the diagram with +- for each of the speakers to the most minuite detail before start. It will get confusing and you may get side tracked. Perhaps post the diagram here as well.
