I was orginally want to find out in variety of ways. to make my car sound louder. Not to discuss my systems.
Cheers.

Sorry Joger.
i think for you, you'd be better off using the HP475 and bridging it to your midbass drivers, and running your tweeters active off the RE50, using the crossovers in your P9.
this way, the crossover will soak up less power from the RE50, and you'll get more treble too!

I think your amp is letting you down, my alnico's sound pretty good with my amp (only 50w per side) and with my new amp they should sound nice and wram with 150w per side

Try what Mr. Bob recommends since you have the gear to go active, I hear that the alnico sounds a lot better active than passive.

So u knew? well maybe. I don't know wether I am going to get the 4.75. I'm bit short on cash. But I have allready think about it.

[Mr_Bob]

Ndree said all the HP4.75's are already sold!
i'm guessing you have your name on one?

it's the best way for you, i'm sure!

[[JOGER]]

It's not just the Cash. But the space availability in My Car.
Can think of anywhere to put it in. Maybe get rid of my CD Stacker and put it underneath the passenger seat. Can't think of place to put it in.

[Mr_Bob]

can't you mount is on the side in your boot?
or on the boot lid?
glove box?
be creative!

[medion]

Maybe a 'floating' amp in the boot?

Are you serious? If so, then send me a PM or post a new thread. Or you could work it out yourself. You could also get a hint from reading Werewolf's posts (in particular) in the links posted on this thread.

[JOGER] - If you want general advice on the variety of ways to make your system louder, rather than discussing the components in your system, then:

The ways to increase the volume are:

Use more efficient speakers/increase the efficiency of the speakers.
Use more power.

Alternatively, you could also use increased sound deadening to decrease the road noise, so that the volume of the music is louder realtive to the volume of the road noise.

Well, I need it to makes it looks good as well.
There should be some place I can put it in. But I still can't think of it yet.

[Mr_Bob]

the floating amp idea is a good one, make up a metal rack and support it "free-air" in the boot....
depends on how much boot space you're happy to loose...

[Brucee]

the hp4.75 is quite small (similar size to AP4.65) not as big as the hp100,but don't put it under the chair, is a very good looking amp,put it in you boot somewhere ,btw i think i have the last hp4.75 :D my fre put hp4.75 with eton A1, it's very loud,and from your component your system should be very loud already, how loud u want?

[[JOGER]]

It's quite loud at the moment.
But with P9R I have to listen at 10 DB to make my ear happy. But from my point of view. It should be louder than that, at 10 DB.

Need more mid bass. And So on. ~

[Brucee]

10db?!?!?! :shock: that's should be very very loud,cos when i heard in my fre car (using P9 without the processor,alnico speaker,phass hp4.75amp) the volume is about 16-19db and its LOUD,u got a very strong ear mate
