  1. .I think the only reason my system cuts out is because i have my speakers on to high with my sub. but when i turn the audio down (SPEAKERS) i can turn my sub up as loud as i want and it wont cut off so really its not all that bad and it doesnt run behind that bad anymore (today)

    Dopey

  5. Switch the RCA's going into your amp.

    my bass is behind and my head unit cuts out when it gets to loud, which is not all that loud (pretty loud) but you know. Switch my rca's for what. i dont understand why this stuffs not working my cd player is 4 volt..so anyway wut do u mean by switch my rca's?

    thankkk ya


  6. Do you have a phase knob on your sub amp?

    If so, play some tight fast bass songs, and slowly twist the knob from stop to stop and put it where the bass sounds onbeat the most.

    dude i dont even have a phase nob..BOO so now my musics always gonna be behind : (

    :ughdunno:


  7. Almost a guarantee ;)

    omgosh so much STUFF, yall are gonna have to help me out i have noooo clue how to adjust my "time of alignmet" or wutever it was you called it lol..Remember im new to this stuff soo im str8 up Noob

    and i kinda dont like it? :noob:


  8. k so they installed it again for me and it makes my interior for the most part do the wave, Wow i enjoy it mucho, so one thing? my bass is a little bit behind on some songs, Whyyyy? im runing 4 guage to the power and ground now.


  9. isht looks fine.

    Monday evening you can bump loud...don't worry, just drink a 40 for me.

    Your ishts fine...you caught it before you did any real damage.

    That's not the sub as-is. Read this quote:

    it doesnt sound crappy and im really dont wana unscrew it outa the box soooo i htink ill just cross my fingers and hope for the best?

    That was after the picture of the sub was posted and after he was told to check for discoloration on the coils.

    u mean before i was supposed to check for discoloration i think but i think its straight, if its muffd then glissons will check if for me when they install me amp with bigger wiresssss.

    hoooola


  10. Easiest way is if it sounds like crap. Could check for discoloration of your coils.

    That's a big geological difference too :P

    Here in the south we're like 'all them places to the west is desert n mountain aint they?' ;)

    it doesnt sound crappy and im really dont wana unscrew it outa the box soooo i htink ill just cross my fingers and hope for the best?

  12. if it stops making sound....that was too much.

    seriously, just turn it down till you get it rewired.

    okk im getting it all situated monday sooo ill tell yall how it runs..100% would be nice


  13. Arkansas.

    I am assuming he means Hot Springs AR.

    hot springs ar lol hollla dopy fay towns baller

    ive had my system up would i be able to tell if anything was damaged or fried and if so how?


  14. 1/5th means nothing. You either need an ear to hear distortion or a dmm if you don't have the ear. What are you using for power wires and where are they run to?

    i have no doubt my wires are run correctly..my friend told me that if the grounded negative wire is touching the power wire then it can cause heating problems. Idk if it worked because i havent run it since i seperated them about an hour ago.

    That doesn't even come close to answering my question, how about I make it more specific. What gauge wire are you running and to what do you have it connected to?

    5 guage from battery to fuse box to amp

    And your ground?

    its a 9 guage wire i believe. Im going to this place called glissons here in town and theyre gonna rewire my hole system. Im gonna get them to do it in 0 or 2 guage. I think that will take care of the hole over heating because i was thinking that since my wire is so small its only giving out a 1000 watt stream and my amp pushes 2000 sooooooo thats a bit of a strain when the volume gets up. It stays cool when the volumes down i figured today so this should take care of the hole heating problem with my amp. It should also juice up my sub a bit as well...I CANT WAIT WOOT WOOT

  16. Could it be that the sub is wired to .5 ohm instead of 2 ohms? Maybe double check the wiring to be positive it's not an installation error.

    I vote 1/2ohm install. As far as caps go everyone has their own opinion, I love my Alumapro Cap 15 and wouldn't run without it but then again I also upgraded the electrical as well. Wire the sub in series my friend, if you don't know how find out how asap.

    i wired in series with a wire from one posotive and one negative to eachother and the other two to the terminal cup..i have the dual 1 ohm so that would make it a 2 ohm load im runing at


  17. my friend told me that if the grounded negative wire is touching the power wire then it can cause heating problems.

    If the insulation is touching, no...if the conductors are touching, "heating problems" is a bit of an understatement :D

    insulation? as in the rubber that covers the wire?

    Im runing a kicker zx1000 to a Q 12 and the amp pushes 1225 watts rms. so i know that the amp is pushing the sub fine without trouble but i cant figure out why its getting hot. yall can prob tell im frustrated and if you cant I AM

    : D thanks guys
