    need 1 sub and 1 amp for a Mercedes

    You also can look at Image Dynamic Q series subs which can handle up to 500 Watts. U can get these over at woofers etc. for 150 before shipping Aswell you can talk to nick over at FI to see if he has any of the X series subs left. These he is only selling for 80 dollars each before shipping and are rated at 300 RMS

    ported vs sealed

    Right now im keeping the subwoofer sealed. I just recently purchased a ESX 175.2 for the front stage and it sounds so much more alive. my next step is to purchase either an Alpine 9887 or the pioneer 800 PRS. And run the the font active with an ESX 60.4 on the tweets and the 175.2 on the woofers., and hopley down the line I can find and get either an ESX 475.1 or the ESX 120.4 to run the subwoofer. Once all this is all done I experiment with a ported box. It sounded better having the polyfill in the box aswell. Thanks BigCProductions99 i screwed that up buts its fixed now
  3. Check all the fuses that are inline with the amp. 1. the fuse under the hood on the power wire 2. the fuse at the distro block (if u have one) 3. the fuses on the amp. Also tell us your entire system aswell, also what size power and ground wire u are using??

    Who do I contact about recones?

    You can contact Nick His Email is Nick@Ficaraudio.com
  5. With that amp u would wire each coil to each channel with that the sub only seeing about 200watts
  6. Hifonics BXI 2610D this amp would do great for your setup it is at woofer etc it puts out 1500 watts at 4ohm but that is rated at 14.4. Depending on your electrical you probably wont see the full 1500 watts and YOU HAVE TO USE YOUR GAINS WISELY. having more power and use your gains wisely, u are only using the cleanest part of the signal which results in decent sound quality.
  7. so you are looking for an amp to power that subwoofer correct??
  8. tell us about your setup and we can recommend an amp for you cause that amp at best buy is 210. You can get the same amp at woofers etc for 130. Also what is your budget??
  9. what do you want to know about it??
  10. Did U keep hitting the source button to the sources start to repeat it self??? If it is still not there take a pen and hit the little reset button on the headunit. Once you have done this keep pressing the source button to see if it come up now.

    ideas for my setup?

    This is only my opinion. Nothing has been released as of yet, but in knowing that zed is all about pure clean power and that most of the amps that zed produced are not active capable, im going to say that his new line is not going to have it either. Cause an amp is made to do one thing and that is to amplifiy a signal. Having everything processed before the amp allows the amp to only amplify what you want amplified. Cleaner power.
  12. Try this ... Turn your headunit to multi cd and see if it plays. Since the headunit doesnt have direct control over the ipod you would have to switch everything using the ipod. If this doesnt work does your headunit have extra aux inputs???

    ideas for my setup?

    There should be no difference cause it is still getting processed before the amplifier. The only big differnce i see is that if it was in the headunit it would be right at your finder tips with a seperate piece u might have to go where it is installed to change the points.

    ideas for my setup?

    yes u can buy the speakers and amp now but the amp would have to be a 4 channel amp cause of running active. U wouldnt need an active crossover cause an active headunit would have that in it for ex an alpine 9887. on a side note u could run active with that headunit but u would have to find a 4 channel amp that has active capabilites.

    ideas for my setup?

    a good pair of components would be the Alpine SPX-17PRO. they cost about $340

    ideas for my setup?

    I dont think the that headunit is active so u would be better off jus running passive for now till u get another headunit that is active
  17. Ok first u have to Hold the Search button to enter the function menu then start spinning the aud (volume) knob to u see the setting for demo mode once that is seen on the screen then u press and hold the aud knob, thus switching it on and off.
  18. What make and model is the car ?? ^^^^Tirefryr beat me too it^^^^^

    what test tones?

    If you set your amps with a 0 db tone your amp will never clip, and due to the way music is recorded you will never reach peak output. At a -5db tone will give you about 4.5 db more output than the 0 db, and this will keep clipping below .03% of recorded music. Very minimal clipping, not to many people can hear this. At a -10 db tone will give you about 9 db more output, and this keeps clipping below .3% of recorded music. Again the clipping is minimal, and again most people cant hear this. Hope this helps.

    amp questions

    what u could do is run a single rca for the headunit and use a y spitter on the posite side and on the negitive side giving u two sets of rcas

    amp questions

    on the kicker u use one of the left + or the left - and use the opposite polarity on the right side. on both amp one and amp two. thusly powering two speakers. U would need to use both rca inputs

    New Audio site

    Its a brand new site and i need of members. But the way the site owner made it is not the way many fourms are done. What he did is u cant see the site to u actually join, but once u are signed up u still have to wait till he approves you. which is wierd I know. I think that the approving the member thing is what is hurting the site though. The link is good though
