Can I put my hybrid dual woofers in my car.?
I was wondering if I could put and play my hybrid dual woofers speakers in my car. I already got the amp. I'm talking about the stereo system where you play CDs and tapes it's Sony too.
Yes you can all systems will interchange you must know how to wire them together. Hybrid wires speakers are like one positive n one ground like all others, speakers are speakers, some plug, some are colored wires but all are the same concept...... YOUR AMP... will work as well but be careful not to blow up the speakers all good amps have turn downs so you don't blow cheap speakers remember if your amp don't have turn down warm up your speaker for your blow them all to hell.. Turn down or up slowly esp up and let um warm up. GOOD LUCK N KEEP ON JAMMING..

Why does my Sony C.D. stereo short out every time a disk gets 1 minute and 15 seconds into the song?
I have a 4-5 year old Sony HCD GX-25 stereo. It is a very common stereo. It comes with two Hybrid Dual Woofers. (the speakers) Every time I insert a C.D. the track gets to 1:15 seconds and then sounds like the CD is shorting out or skipping, and then the stereo shuts off the CD. It does not matter what CD i put into it, it does this with every single one. My stereo has worked perfect up until about a month ago, when it started doing this for no apparent reason? Any tips or help would be much appreciated.
if your a-b repeat is not on then your transport needs service! i repair electronics! if you get a new one look into a DENON they are very reliable even entry level players!
Is my sound system good enough or does it need more?
I have a "modest" sound system consisting of:
2 sony (5'') mid-range speakers,
2 sony (5'') dual hybrid woofers and 2 (1'') tweeters. No sub at the moment. (Rated Ohms 6 Each)
300 Watt amp (150RMS watt power per channel.)
Bass: Pretty good for speaker size. (Can rattle stuff at times, depending on song, but it's still not strong enough for me.)
Volume: Very Loud (This is where my system gets a plus. For some reason my system can be turned up all the way without distorting at all or at most very little...enough to make my ears bleed...pretty cool.)
So does my system meet the criteria as "decent for listening" if not what should I do to improve it? And would you rather have a sound system with high volume capabilities or with more bass?
I would get some subs. I like high bass over high volume.
What big stereo should I buy?
Ok so the story is that ive been looking to buy a stereo system for my room. so at first i was looking at the logitech z5500's and the z906's because my friend had the 5500's and they sounded pretty damn good when i listened to them in his room. but then i was looking at reviews and specs and saw that they infact arent even that good speakers as what i was reading. they have no tweeters, and mids are a little distorted and not really there. but what i like about the logitechs is that it comes with the whole system already there so you only need to buy one thing. so i did some more research and found other systems, now in the catagory of "home thearter". I dont know if that is still what im looking for but anyways some of those looked good. especially on cnet their editors choice energy take classic 5.1 surround sound system looked phenominal. but i dont know if those speakers are still good for music and blasting music really loud and also getting nice crisp bass that i would be able to control (turn up and down like on the logitech). but wouldnt i need an a/v reciever for that? and with that would the a/v recievers even work well with what im trying to do (control my music). MOVING ON, i did some more research and came up with a bunch of different sony speakers that i could put together to make a system, but i dont know how that stuff really works.this is what i would be looking at though. Sony SS-B3000 Bookshelf Speakers with 8-Inch Woofer (Pair, Black), Onkyo TX-8255 Stereo Receiver, Sony SSF-7000 Floor-Standing 4-way Speaker with 8" Woofer (Pair), Sony SS-CN5000 Dual 5.25" Center Channel Speaker (each, black), Sony SA-W3000 Performance Line 12" 180-Watt Subwoofer (each, black). Would these be a good combination? as in having a balance between crisp nice controllable super bass, good mids, excellent highs and tweeters. Please help any help would do, even recommendations to other stuff or elaborate on what ive found. Thanks so much!!
If you truly want crisp clear sound especially crisp clean powerful bass, you really don't look at any of the stuff you are looking at. No computer speakers deliver this nor do any Sony speakers deliver this. The problem is cost. Based on what you are looking at I suspect you have a really tight budget but unfortunately it isn't easy to come up with anything decent sounding without spending real money. Doing it right requires avoiding receivers and going with preamp/processors, digital crossovers, external power amplifiers, high quality speakers, at least two subwoofers etc and this can all add up to costing more than your house. So, you need to look for alternative compromise solutions. Something between what you are looking at and real audio equipment. Websites such as Dakmart offer refurbished receivers some of which are very old models. This provides you with a source of higher quality equipment for really low prices as long as you don't need the latest connectivity etc. For $200 ~ $300 you can get an older model receiver that could make the starting point of a decent sounding little system. Speakers and subwoofers are the hard part. If you had the tools and know how you could build them but lacking this you need to look at used or you could possibly consider a kit that is easy to assemble. Forget about the Sony, those aren't going to sound good at all. The hardware is too cheap and the cabinets are too cheaply constructed. Thin wall speaker cabinets radiate just about as much or more sound into the room as the speaker cones but it's very garbled distorted sound contaminating the sound from the speaker cones. If you rap on the side of a speaker cabinet with your knuckles and it sounds like a hollow door, it's a piece of crap speaker. Instead of the Sony subwoofer you are looking at consider something like Emotiva... http://emotiva.com/ultra_sub12.shtm Yes, it's more expensive than the Sony but it's a lot better. This isn't a high end sub, it's very much an entry level sub but Sony is well beneath entry level. You could also consider a kit from PE... http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=300-760 As for bookshelf speakers a used set of Radio Shack Minimus 7's would sound better than the Sony's you are looking at. Something like this... http://www.audioadvisor.com/prodinfo.asp?number=MRBBX1 would be a lot better than the Sony. Better still, something like this kit... http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=302-962 Good audio cost money unfortunately. Talking about "crisp bass" etc in the same paragraph with things like Sony and Logitech is a bit like talking about luxury car performance looking at pedal powered cars in a Toy's-R-Us. Good sound just doesn't exist in those markets. Try Googling "High-End Audio" in your city and find a high end store. A Magnolia in a Best Buy doesn't qualify. Go to the high end store and listen to systems far outside your price range... system costing $10,000 or more. This will give you an idea what better sound is like... actually it's pretty much crap compared to what's possible but at least it's far above anything you've ever heard out of computer speakers. At least it will give you a higher bar to strive for, then you start looking for budget ways to get at least something a lot better than computer speakers or Sony speakers. mk
