    sealed boxes

    Use both. When you fasten the panels together, use the liquid nails between the pieces. Then use the fiberglass along all the interior cracks, or just put down a layer or two down on all the sides.

    Anyone have pics of sound deadened ‘99+ doors?

    Here's a couple. I'm not quite finished yet. I still need to finish sealing up the holes where the door panel fits into the door. Also, if you're just looking to do the doors, 20 sq ft. of eDead v.1 http://www.edesignaudio.com/ep2/edead.htm should be fine for a couple layers. I wouldn't...

    Panel behind quarter window removal

    Are you talking about the trim around the window or the panel with the armrest? To take off the one around the window, disconnect the seat belt by popping the plastic cover and use a T50 torx to unscrew the bolt. Then take out the little coat hook with a phillips. There's a couple of clips(4)...

    sealed boxes

    Don't use plywood when you make a sub box. MDF like he said is much better to use. When you build it, use a lot of wood glue when you screw it together. After it's dried, use silicone along every inside edge, using your fingers to press it into the crack, just to make sure it's completely...

    I wanna replace the speakers in my Mach 460 system

    If you plan on replacing all the speakers, it's best if you replace the head unit, too. The stock system uses 1 for the tweeters, and 2 for the front and rear midwoofers, each having their own crossover point. If you are going to replace the speakers, it's easiest to just bypass the amps...

    NEED HELP! Speaker problems.....

    Yeah, I think it's probably the amp. When you connected the speaker and turned it on for the first time, it was probably too much of a load on the amp and it blew it, that's why it won't work now. I don't remember if it was the left or right amp that powers the fronts. If you still have the...

    Speakers pop when radio turned on

    Try wiring a 570 ohm resistor inline with the remote turn on wire. I think ford uses a 5-7v remote and with the alpine's 12v turn on, it might be causing it. If that doesn't work, you could always try something like this: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-XVpMFJ9wGxj/tech/kb327.html or...

    Anyone have pics of sound deadened ‘99+ doors?

    I have pics of my 94's that have two layers of deadener on them. Pretty much the same. I'll get pics up later tonight when I get home.

    Mach 1000 system 2003GT

    The amp for the tweeters is behind and under the radio. There is one amp for the frond mids, one for the rear mids, and one for each of the subs. If I were you, I'd just buy aftermarket equipment. If you just want the interior speakers to work, and don't need the subs, you'll need to get the...

    NEED HELP! Speaker problems.....

    With the Mach system, there are three amps total. One powers the front and rear tweeters, one controls the frond mids and one controls the back mids. Unless you shorted something when you connected wired it up, I can't think of any reason right now why it won't work. I wouldn't recommend just...

    quick question

    The amp for the tweeters is behind and under the head unit. I can't remember the wires that lead from the amp to the rears, though. It powers the front and rear tweets, so be careful to not disconnect the wrong wires. I don't have acrobat reader on this computer, but I think this'll tell you...

    Mach 1000 system 2003GT

    If they took out all 4 amps out of the trunk, you won't get any sound out of anything besides the front and rear tweeters.

    quick question

    You're right about the ground. I use the bolt for the rear seatbelt and it works great. Looking at your list of what you want to use for amps, you should be fine with the 8 ga. wire. The 2100 should be a great amp for the comps. Just to let you know, I've heard it gets pretty warm, so make...

    quick question

    The wal-mart kit is a good kit. The RCA's aren't that bad, but the ends don't connect very tight. I'm going to try this on my friend's truck when his amp comes in: http://home.new.rr.com/zaph/audio/audio-cables.html It might have been the preouts on the HU, but I had use tape over the...

    quick question

    Well, if you can find a spot for the mid amp, you wouldn't have to rewire anything until you get an amp for the comps. If you're building a sub enclosure, you could put it on the box facing the back of the rear seats. If you full-range the mid, it'll get really muddy when it tries to play the...

    quick question

    The only problem is that you'll need a crossover, since the mach speakers are a component system. If you just wire them up, you'll be full-ranging the mid and the tweet. You could keep the amp that powers the tweeters where it is behind the dash, and the amp that powers the front mids you...

    quick question

    You could run them off the HU if you're running an aftermarket HU. You'll be underpowering them, but as long as you're getting an amp later, you'll have the wire run already. Just run the + and - from the right channel to the crossover and then to the tweeter and mid, and repeat for the left...
