Love you guys!

[@vitocimino8719]

Man, your videos always explain the things/details I don't find elsewhere. Very informative s**t! Give us more! Thank you.

[@CarAudioEnthusiasts]

You got it!

[@suvomoymitra]

elaborate stinking shit for sure, redistributing vintage shit of no use

[@ronmerkus5941]

I love home audio , but I love car audio even more , because of all the stuff you can do to get crazy power out of your system ,especially when you can wire your subs or front and rear speakers in series or parallel , so you can run them in a lower ohm rating . Great video thanks!!!

[@scottw1938]

I've really been enjoying your content since I stumbled across your channel a month ago. Thank you for all the time and effort that goes into making videos. Please keep it up as long as you feel good enough to do so!

[@milesbachelor8747]

Enjoying the new energy and content, CAE.

[@CarAudioEnthusiasts]

thanks man! Im doin my best!

@@CarAudioEnthusiasts You make it look easy. I was catching up watching your latest amplifier video, went down the D’Amore Egineering lineup, amp dynos etc. Made in USA

Great vid, I always wondered what a car audio system at 8 ohms would sound like combined with a sub at 4 ohm. But pretty much all car audio amps never show that, but even with that much resistance I'm sure it'll still sound great. Based off my 5.1 home theater and 4.1 car, I really can't pick, music, movies or streaming. You never hear of people running 8 ohms in a vehicle, but so common in home theater.

In home audio the higher impedance generally means an easier driver to power. High voltage less current. In car audio with less voltage but high current we can drive lower impedance speakers. But a lot comes down to amplifier quality and gain settings. Amps tend to be a lot happier with higher impedance loads.

[@baronvonscratch]

Thanks. I’ve always wondered the difference.

[@CarAudioEnthusiasts]

No problem!

[@annihilationindustries1990]

But with alot of home audio drivers your sensitivity is much higher so it takes alot less power to get loud. hands down home audio drivers have been by far louder than your average coaxial speakers

Hello Sir, I found this video to be very helpful.I am looking to start installing installation matting in the rear doors. I'm not sure weather to go with the Alpine 6.5 component system or just the 6.5's in the stock hole.What do you suggest? What gain will i get having the tweeter higher in the door?

[@MJIsrael-z3y]

I will be installing the Alpine 6.5 component system in the front doors an in the stock tweeter hole location.

[@CarAudioEnthusiasts]

tweeters up high, lift the sound stage, but for the rear coaxials are fine. personally i like my highs, so i like coaxials AND separate tweeters up high

[@MJIsrael-z3y]

so you would drilll a hole for the rear tweeters.So the gain is worth the work?

[@CarAudioEnthusiasts]

@@MJIsrael-z3y i would'nt be using rear speakers at all, but if youre going to have rear speaker, just use co-axial speakers.

[@suvomoymitra]

I watched till end. However the most important and interesting aspect never floated up anywhere. Can a typical car audio driver / speaker can be an useful, may be a less expensive, yet a good alternative ? Why and how?

[@CarAudioEnthusiasts]

good points, theres another video in the works!

[@ronmerkus5941]

I have a set of PSD316 from MB Quart you can configure them in a parallel, with the crossover , and then on the cross over you can jump the pin to bi wire , so you can get more power out of an amp to drive them , the theaters are insane 😂😂😂

[@freeradical6390]

In general I prefer working with car audio drivers, they are built better, have bigger motors and are a lot easier to tune than a who knows what its made for parts express style drivers.

[@scottw1938]

OK can anyone explain why SQ systems are always 4 ohms or even 8 sometimes. I'm not able to figure out why a lower impedance has more noise and THD. I would think lower ohm loads equal mo powa baby since the majority of car audio amps have unregulated power supplies. And with more power you should get a louder, cleaner and clearer sound from your speakers.

[@morndew100]

can i use good car speaker into my bookself speaker?

[@CarAudioEnthusiasts]

you can , but car audio drivers are designed for Infinite baffle, so youll want to make your enclosures a bit large.

[@Mark_5150]

Price. Home audio drivers tend to be lower price when compared to car audio. I know Morel has taken some drivers and changed the marketing to be for car audio and increased the price. Maybe there are more middle men, or larger marketing budgets, not sure. Probably just greed.

[@natesomers5387]

Can I get sq with coaxials
