2017 Honda Accord coupe: Just installed NVX’s 1100W 5channel amp w these speaker components upfront, Infinity Kappa coaxials on rear deck w Skar SD10 “ sub in trunk,music sounds so good w clear vocals clean highs and solid kicks w punchy bass…
Great Job Cody, Sold me bro and no don't need the Grills (Jimmy Kwan) Some people are just (ignorant) But I'm on board did my home work these Components LIGHT UP! MAN Great job again.
Incorrect info in the video, these speakers will not be twice as loud as a 89dB speaker. It will take twice as much power for the 89dB speaker to play as loud as the 92dB speaker. With every doubling of wattage one gains 3 more dB's of output, assuming the speaker can handle the extra power.
@jeanka_82 100 to 200 watts equates to 3db gain. Sound levels take 10db to sound doubled. In a perfect world, a speaker handling infinite power would have to go from 100 to ~1000 watts to achieve sonically doubled output. That's pretty much why most people get more drivers and amps to achieve higher output.
HELPP!!! Im trying to use a multimeter to tune my sub at 1ohm but im not sure if the W×R than square root= voltage works at 1ohm like it does 2 and 4, please help
Whatever your final impedance is when you wire your sub/subs up = R So if you plug your subs up and final impedance is 2 then r=2 Example(my situation) I have a single svr15d4(800w rms) WIRED TO 2OHM on an rp1500.1d.(1500w rms at 1ohm) 800w*2ohm =1600 Sqr1600=40v So when setting my gain I want the output at the Amp to read 40volts on my multimeter (for safety I set it back to 38 or 39) Honestly I would set it this way and then see how it does for a while, if it sounds good and clean play it at max volume for like half a song and then give it a sniff test if you have port, if sealed feel the dustcap and see if it's warm. Then try full song max volume then maybe try 2 in a row. The dustcap typically gets pretty warm but it shouldn't be hot. Coils will smell bad and very very noticeably(if ported) In my personal situation my subs got real hot and sometimes stinky after about 2 songs when my gain was set this way so I decided to dial it back a good bit, that way I can turn the headunut and bassknob yo full volume for as long as I want and never worry about hurting my sub
Also before you read too heavily into my advice just search The DIY Audio Guy on youtube, he has a very clear and short video on setting amp gains via multimeter
Installed these today in my 2007 Honda Civic. Paired them with the NVX VAD11005 Amp. They sound great but the tweeters are too deep. I had to cut my stock tweeter grills to inset the tweeters and the speaker lip still sits slightly above the grill. Wicked pisser. The woofer housing was a bit wide as well, so I had to modify my adapter. Just beware that these speakers are large for what they are. You get what you pay for I guess?
Be careful not to confuse electrical dB (decibels) with acoustic dB. In an electrical circuit, 3dB is theoretically double the energy, not a doubling of the SPL or volume. 3dB is roughly an increase by a factor of 1.4. In an acoustic setting, 3dB is perceived as about 12% louder because the human ear is not a linear device, but a logarithmic one. Because it’s subjective, most sound engineers generally consider 10dB to be twice as loud. Further, it takes about 10 times the amplifier, from 100 to 1000 watts of power to play twice as loud at the same efficiency (reference point being 89dB) and inversely, 3 times the efficiency or close to 99dB with the power at 100 watts to equal that of a 1000 watt amplifier on a speaker at 89dB. A 3dB increase in efficiency is nowhere near a doubling of the perceived volume. Granted, any imporvment in efficiency is better as long as the power handeling isn't the offset. Uusally, one comes at the cost of the other, when both are present, the price usually goes up. These are great sounding and performing speakers. I would put them up there with any of the Focal Access line and they are half the price.
Glad to see you guys are posting again.
Seriously, yeah. Keep It Coming Sonic
Definitely looking forward to using a set of these soon
2017 Honda Accord coupe: Just installed NVX’s 1100W 5channel amp w these speaker components upfront, Infinity Kappa coaxials on rear deck w Skar SD10 “ sub in trunk,music sounds so good w clear vocals clean highs and solid kicks w punchy bass…
Been looking forward to some new X type components for a while.
Just bought 2 sets coming in today. I can't wait to see how they sound on my car!!
Hello did you like them, how did they sound ed??
Love the carbon fiber, takes you back to the old Altec Lansing from the 90's Morel, Focal, Lanzar ...very cool
Would these be idea with a DSP amplifier?

Can you do the 3 way version.

If put them at same 100rms each the 92db will be twice loud or not? Given the same RMS power

I have two sets of these can you recommend a 4-channel amp?
I know this is an old post but figured why not…what size hole to flush mount the tweeters?
Need a two inch hole that's about 1.5 inches deep.
@@Junior_Meat umm lol
How yall keep tweeters mounted in,? My kicker tweeters have lock rings, these dont
What did you do , I just got them and noticed the same. I guess hot glue
Perfect let’s make a video on some speakers that are on back order!

Whatever your final impedance is when you wire your sub/subs up = R
So if you plug your subs up and final impedance is 2 then r=2
Example(my situation)
I have a single svr15d4(800w rms) WIRED TO 2OHM on an rp1500.1d.(1500w rms at 1ohm)
800w*2ohm =1600
Sqr1600=40v
So when setting my gain I want the output at the Amp to read 40volts on my multimeter (for safety I set it back to 38 or 39)
Honestly I would set it this way and then see how it does for a while, if it sounds good and clean play it at max volume for like half a song and then give it a sniff test if you have port, if sealed feel the dustcap and see if it's warm.
Then try full song max volume then maybe try 2 in a row.
The dustcap typically gets pretty warm but it shouldn't be hot.

Is this good for sq kind of setup?

I wish they would make n series components

If the set came with protective grilles, I would buy a set to try them out.

the INPHASE SPX-17c looks like same cone but better basket, components and be cheaper then yours why?
237 Dario Mountains
not as nice as the old x series components but they are less then half the price of the old ones
