Love the kicks!

[df2x4]

Hahahaha........ I love it when I can help someone achieve a higher perspective of such a simple thing as a "kick panel". I started installing professionally in 1989, and I remember the birth of q logic, and when those kicks first come out. I believe it was the mid 90's, and they haven't changed much since.... they are what they are! Alot of people will think they are the greatest thing, I personally don't care for them...

And this is just the opinion of one old installer....

Well I love learning about stuff like this from people who do it professionally, so thanks! I've built and installed quite a few audio setups for myself and friends over the years but never worked at a shop or anything like that so my experience is limited. It's cool to hear first hand experience on products I've seen or heard of but never had a chance to check out.

My red truck has got a pretty nice (and semi-period correct) SQ system that I put together over a decade ago. It was a really fun project.

And there it is..... its a blast! I love what I do for a living! It doesn't matter if I'm fabricating or installing a remote start, I juat absolutely enjoy the work, and I guess I try to pass on my knowledge AND my passion! Thanks for following along and interacting! I love it!!!

I too like learning about things from professionals, it's important to know where you can save, and where to spend when you're working with a small budget.

OKAY, so how much for a pair of these? I too have a set of the old Q logics. And they are crap, especially if you are trying to run a good midbass in them. No strength. And I just don't have the time to fab these. In the middle of an entire system rebuild.

I pm'd you......

The Q logics lack quality all around!!!!! I've been doing this professionally for 30+ years and every set I've installed were cheap and flimsy and there is no enclosure for the woofer..... its just an open back baffle!!!!!

U ain ******** there,$250+ a set and if u don't sound deaden em they resonate like a bb in a beer can! Best way to go is make ur own if u have the skills...then u can custom angle them for time alignment anyways! Looking good, wanna see em glassed and in! I'm about to jump into custom door panels for ally mids ( 2 6.5 ,1 4" and 1 4" tweeter in each door) can't hack anymore holes , already looks like garbage but wasn't ready for glass work yet as I been trying different mids to get the sound I want.

Alrighty, I'm trying to feed into that community bit and share personally....

So, I have a build in the street thread, but id like to share what ot is I do all day long to be able to afford ot build my race truck "Wh4t3v3rs". I've already regretted these pics, and I haven't posted them yet......

I will help however I can! I will consider building and shipping! And last, please just don't start bombarding me with crazy what if questions, and dream builds that are years down the road....

Juat a simple kick that will hold a 6 1/2" Hertz Mille Pro coaxial. Im in the middle of mirroring the drivers kick, so I haven't hardened it yet....

I'm not a sq guy per-se, I run TONS of power but has to be nice and clear ( currently run active 3 way in the doors, but 650 watts per door lol) , always wanted to build a sq setup but always end up wanting more volume. Have you had any experience with the new infinity primus coax and components? I've been installed for over 25 years now ( 15 professionally) and these are hands down the best entry-mid level speakers in thier price range and rms rating. Literally 9 out of 10 setups I have put these in end up with a flat eq and they sound phenomenal! At less than $100 a pair and rms rating of 80watts u just can't beat em! I run pioneer pro 6.5s , ds18 4" , and ds18 tweeters ( had the pioneer pro tweeters but no recoil available) . I like the pro series cause unlike most pro audio these play down to 70hz vs 120+hz for most others. But I'm crazy, I run 1300 watts to the doors and 8k to my 3 american bass tnt 15s, they gotta keep up!
