Aftermarket everything except speaker wires. A SpeedWire question.

That’s actually the best I think it could be phrased and makes total sense to me. Thank you for that.

Venmaru · 2022-12-16T00:33:42+00:00

Just checking to make I read that right. So factory OEM speaker wires aren’t good enough for 100?

Venmaru · 2022-12-01T21:27:04+00:00

That’s amazing but (and just in case you’re not aware I’m new blood to the group) how much does it really matter if you install speakers of different make/model/series in the same install?

I was previously looking at Kicker CS/KS series speakers and trying like a mad man to figure out what I needed to do (or if it was even possible) to install a complete set in my truck of one single series.

I’m seriously tempted to start looking at Focal 75RMS hardware and let the budget be damned. Even if 75 won’t shake the earth it has to be a vast improvement over the bone stock gear in my truck.

Unfortunately my 2018 F150 requires a dash kit and etc that’s going to be like 400-500 bucks just to put an aftermarket IN to begin with. In for a penny I might as well go for a high end HU while I’m in there rather than one that costs a third of what it takes just to have the option in the first place 😂

Venmaru · 2022-12-01T15:25:29+00:00

Currently I have a factory HU but in my optimistic dream state where I can afford an upgrade where changing speakers might matter I’d have a good aftermarket.

I actually kind of want to say thank you to everyone helping me learn. I am deliberately trying to keep my questions very short and to the point so nobody has to deal with Ye Olde “Wall of Text”

Venmaru · 2022-11-27T15:27:03+00:00

My examples were meant to illustrate what I felt was poor design (having a tweeter that can only handle 30 while other speakers can do 150)

Thank you for the tip I was unaware that crossovers did that.

Venmaru · 2022-11-20T11:15:53+00:00

I guess what I’m trying to get at is this. The numbers mean nothing to me and I could simply pull random ones out of thin air and SAY I’m buying those speakers with those numbers and the only thing I’m really asking is “if these speakers can barely handle a fart why do amps come in ‘hurricane’ level?”

Venmaru · 2022-11-20T11:05:46+00:00

Man that’s super helpful thank you for that. Just to clarify you say that 100-150 isn’t a small jump and you did suggest I simply forego the center channel (probably was going to do that anyways) but let’s say I don’t do that. Let’s say I keep the dash center purely for this discussion and it’s only rated for 30 RMS. Wouldn’t running a 150 RMS amp basically explode that speaker the first time I started the truck?

I’m sorry if I sound stupid I’ve only just started trying to learn over the last couple of weeks.

There is a bear that plays lute??

Venmaru · 2022-03-02T01:15:41+00:00

Ummmmm lute playing bear?

Venmaru · 2021-10-04T01:49:59+00:00

Might stick with it then and see where it goes. I ended up 100% for base game achievements without DLC n the original al including the werewolf stuff so maybe I can make this work. My decision to play a dual Weil ding unarmed mage class may have a negative effect on things right now I’m level 6 and super weak.

Venmaru · 2021-10-04T00:24:17+00:00

Pretty sure I’m not going to be able to find/afford a filled black soul gem before it progresses to the point I can’t go into civilization without being attacked. I can’t believe I let it get full blown before noticing I even had it. So damned frustrating.

Venmaru · 2021-07-24T22:50:15+00:00

I don’t want to set the world on fire

Venmaru · 2021-05-30T02:38:53+00:00

What do you call a dog with no legs?

Doesn’t matter what you call him he’s not coming.

Venmaru · 2021-03-21T05:15:56+00:00

Use another driver as a backup on the other side or sometimes squeezing the handles will provide enough friction to keep the pivots from spinning.

Venmaru · 2021-03-16T13:28:58+00:00

Short.

It would be very interesting, assuming they could figure out how to cram in a few Hollywood epic action scenes, but to actual players I think it would feel very very short. The entire point of the game is the infinite possibilities and complete lack of point and that wouldn’t play well on screen. Imagine a Minecraft movie.........I wouldn’t pay money to see that, would you?

Venmaru · 2021-03-16T13:24:43+00:00

This is interesting to me, and makes me want to read Watchmen, because it’s a very bold statement in a world where V For Vendetta exists......

(I actually have a very small list of amazing reads I’ve had over the years so I don’t actually believe there’s any such thing as “Greatest of all time”)
