  1. Hello everyone I have a little problem. I just installed another kinetik hc 2400 in my 03 yukon. I am currently running 1 red top under the hood and 2 kinetik hc 1400 and 2 kinetik hc 2400. I'm pushing 2 18's tc sound ultra lms and a ia40. I am waiting for my second one to come. I charged the 5 month old 2400 and one of the 1400. After installing all the batteries and driving for 20 minutes my engine light came on. What's the problem. I tryed removing the connections for 5 mins to reset the computer, but that didn't work. Anyone know what I can do to fix this problem?

    I need to talk to some one

    Hello friends charles here and I need to talk to some one on the phone about my dimension of my box to be sure that I have the right measurements for my box before I start making it. H 22.5 x L 46 x D 28 now I want the two tc sound lms 18' subs that I have to be facing up with the ports in this box. My port is 4 x 21 this gives me 84. I want the box to be tuned to 35 hz. Is this right and how long should this be from the bottom of the box to work? Is it possible or do I do have to have the subs facing towards the back door. I have a 03 yukon. I am in Kuwait and I am willing to call who ever I can so please leave your will leave number or pm me so that I can get the box built for these subs. some one please help me or please tell me what I need to do. Thank you for your time friends

    how do I calculate port area

    I want to make a box for my 03 yukon this is what I have H21"xL46"xD28" I want to chamber both 18's with a 3" port turned to 33hz is this right for my truck. I want to put the subs up with ports up is this right or should I go with subs up and ports back? Need help from the family. Thanks for all the advise.
  6. Hey guys I just got both of my tc sound 18 lms today and one of mine had a crank in top of the frame also it will play fine I think, but I think I may have a problem with the mounting and sealing of the sub. I will post pictures of it later. I think I might be able to work with it. We will see.

    how do I calculate port area

    Ok I think I mean to say 3' by 19.5 I hope thats right on each chamber. The port is going to run the full length and be 3' on the sub side up. I hope thats right.

    Shipping Advise

    iirc the baskets only weigh like 26 lbs each... I think the motors would most definitely have to be shipped though. Thanks I think when they get here (in NC) I will just separate them and shipp them to my self in Kuwait. When I get back I will start to put my 03 yukon together. I can't wait to see and hear what it's going to sound like. two tc sound ultra lms on a ia40.1 amp. wow can't wait

    Shipping Advise

    Well I have two tc sound ultra lms 18" and want to ship from the states NC to Kuwait. What should I do and or who should I use to ship them if I have to? Should I separate them and ship them that way or take them back with me in two separated suit cases. I like option two my self, but what do you guys think. I leave on friday so please help me out. Thanks for your time friends

    Shipping Advise

    Yeah I think your right about that one so what you think I should separate them and just ship them throught the mail. Each subwoof is about 80lbs. I don't know how much they are separated.

    flying back to the us

    cool but how do i keep the volts up passed 13.0
  16. Hey Friends... I just wanted to know how do you have your music hooked up? Are you running your wires from the battery or from the positive on the alternator? Right now I have 2 TC Sound 18' Ultra lLMS with a 200 amp alternator one red top batt one 1400 kinetik and 4 hc2000 kinetiks with one IA40.1 amp waiting on the other one. My plan is run two or three lines with the big three already done. I am trying to keep my volts up pass 13.5 when the bass hits. Please advise me on what to do. Do I need better batteries or 16v batteries. Do I need a Isolator or not when hooking up four or more batteries? I will be flying back to the states in two days and if some one could help me out and show me what I need to do that would be great. I will be in Charlotte, NC area for about 21 days. I would like to start putting my truck together when I get back to Kuwait Please Help Thanks Friends

    new system

    I'm putting in a new system 300 amp alternator 4x khc 2000 and yellow top under the hood on a IA 40.1 amp. The subs still thinking about what I should run with this amp any suggestions? I would like to keep the volts at 14.4 no lower than 14.1. Can some tell me how I can do this without have any voltage drop? Do I need to set up the system for 16v to keep the volts at a steady 14.1 or higher?

    how to set up a 14.1 v system

    Ok my friends I have decided to run two alternators 250 or more. As far as the amps still kicking that issue around and wondering if I should just run one amp or two for daily drive, but I want to have enough bang if some wants to challenge me or having my lights dimming when I turn it up loud.

    how to set up a 14.1 v system

    Now thats what I was thinking but I thought that that might be to hard to do or would hurt something. If it is possible I would like to do it if I don't have to add a second alt but I think that adding a second alt having about 500 to 600 amps should be enought I'm thinking. Dose any one know the ampage draw for two saz-3000d and 2 IA 40.1
