I am about at the end of pulling my hair out.
I've been running a CarPC system for over one year and it just doesnt put out the sound it should. I'm not going to go into what I currently have, you can search for that, but its not relative to this post. What I want is recommendations on what gear I should get to make a thupping carPC system, but keeping a couple items I dont want to give up:
1.) My CarPC is an HP dc7800. This is brand new small form factor PC that repalced my custom VoomPC VIA setup...this PC as as powerful as the average desktop.
2.) I have 2 , 10inch BA G5's dual voice coil subs...these should be PLENTY for nice bass.
Aside of that I am willing to ditch all my other gear and replace it with new gear, so based on that what can you all recommend for :
1.) USB soundcard
2.) Rear 6x9 speakers, fron components and tweets
3.) AMP to power the rear/components and tweets
4.) AMP to power the 2 G5's (I have my eyes set on the JL 1000/1)
5.) Capacitors for the G5's. I run a redtop Optima and havent had issues with my current setup as far as power
I think my problem is my current USB sound card selections (24bit live and X-fii) not configured properly...but i'm bout ready to give up on them.
Here are my subs i want to keep:
Here is my current gear, which I want to ditch! not liking Rockford anymore. Also, thats my old CarPC voom in this picture:
Here is what everything is in, so I want the best:
