What does that mean in relation to the motor structure? What is different form a regular motor?

ok so im running a interstate 625 right now cause my yellowtop crapped out on me for the second time and wont be available for another month cause i think the ones for the honda/acura had a defect with the cells...anways is there anyother batteries that i could get that would be better then that intersate that i have now??.....the space i have to work with for now is 9in length and 5in wide.....or maybe i should just see about that 130amp alternator that i was looking at instead of the 70amp one i have now...hmmmm??

Check out today's Woot. Enjoy

So I got meh 4 gauge amp kit today. :bigclap: My dad is fixed on helping me with the install and he said it would be easier to put the amp under the seat instead of in the trunk, and he is worried it might overheat in the trunk on a hot summer day. It fits nice and snug under the seat, and all I would have to run to the trunk would be speaker wire. Is there a reason I shouldn't put it under the seat instead of the trunk?

I have a Soundstream TRX 4.420,it puts out 70 watts rms x 4 channels @ 4 ohms, and 105 watts rms @2 ohms.------I have 2 sets of infinity's that run at 2 ohms,1 set of 6x9s rated at 105watts rms, and 1 set of 5 1/4 componets rated @ 75 watts rms. If I added 2 more sets and wired them together ass if it was 4 seperate dual voice coil subs in series each on there own channel would each speaker get 70 watts? or would each speaker get 35 watts? or would my amp burn up, even though it can run a 2 ohm load from running 8 speakers 2 for each channel? is this possible----------------Question #2 If this is a bad idea, and I probally will not do this anyway I was just wondering If t…

Hi, I drive a 2007 Ford Fusion and I am having some trouble finding a better alternator, could anyone give me a few places I could look that might have one for me? I plan on running a 18" Fi BTL with Kicker ZX2500.1 and maybe 2 batts. Also about what size alternator should I be looking at? Thanks for any input

I read some of the former posts and it said that it's bad to use the bass boost on the amp. So is it best to leave the bass boost off on the amp but ok to turn up the bass on the beck instead? I set my amp myself today, I'm pretty good with doing it by ear. These audio shops around here are either shady or stupid. One of the turned the bass boost up on my amp alot and turned the gain down lol. It didn't sound right to me, so I went to another place and he said it was bad to use the bass boost on the amp and re-adjusted it for me. I thought he was trustworthy until I was banging my system and my Icon 15 smelt funny, so I turned it off and felt the sub and it was pret…

i need help i will be adding my old subwoofer to my other subs and was wonder if i can wire a single voice coil sub with a dual voice coil. the single voice coil is 4 ohms and the dual is a dual 4ohms but idk how to wire it either in series or parellel

anyone ever place a order with this guy? if so how was the box and the shipping cost?

here is my system, looking for ways to improve. http://imgur.com/a/phWXW thanks!

Sup all. Random question that i should know the answer to but whatever lol. Is having a high amount of watts with your sub and amp always a good thing or if your going for something purely strong and heavy? or if you want quality will you find it with something that has less watts? and if neither then im officially confused lol.

hi all went up to a local truck shop the other day and found a demo for a truck liner which consisted of a few pamphlets and a coke can covered in bed liner, well a friend of mine and i started playing with this can and soon enough we were breaking a sweat trying to crush it. then later that night i was watching my truck as the fi q 18 i had in the bed played and i saw how much everything was flexing so i was wondering if i coated the inside of my truck with the bed liner if it would save me from running into a problem like iamanmp3pimp (sorry if i butchered the Sn )had with his roof flexing till it cracked. thanks

Whats the difference between those 2 terms?

Ok i know the kicker amp shouldnt do 1 ohm, but i have been doing some reading and they say it can be ran at 1 ohm. When i say they i mean other users of this amp online. I did hook it up at 1 ohm and it did fine until i turned up the gain and bass boost. But with the cadence amp it runs fine no problems. It doesnt even get hot. So what i would like to know is should i run my kicker at 1 ohm, and play with fire. Or should i play it safe and run the cadence? out of the 2 amps which would give the best sound? and how is cadence as a amp i never had one before?

Which would be the better route to go to power a 15" fully loaded Fi BTL, 2 powerbass ASA 1500.1Dx amps (i already have one) or one Hifonics Brutus BRZ2400.1D? does anyone know if powerbass actually puts out rated power? i heard that the brutus is under rated

I am in the market for a car alarm for my 94' Suburban before I put all the gear in it. I can vaguely recall that there used to be some of the alarm makers having wiring harnesses out that would plug into your existing vehicle harnesses so that it would cut out having to splice into all the different loc.'s for the alarm to function. I have done a little searching on the net so far and not really found what I'm looking for or what I thought was out there. Maybe I'm wrong or maybe they abandoned the idea. Anybody got any input on this. I am not new to installing an alarm on a vehicle, but it's been a few years, and I am just trying to cut down on time on putting one o…

Hi, Just advising that Acoustic-Visions is closing down in about 2 weeks. Sent a message to Kyle regarding a subwoofer. And he told me that he was closing down. So I believe it is accurate. Might be starting a new company... who knows. Kelvin

Hello, I'm getting a new system, and I need some help please. All I need is a sub(s) an amp, and the wiring. I'm building the enclosure, and I already have a HU. My budget is ~$600, and my goal is to have a system that pounds really hard I have a 2000 Crown Vic Police Interceptor, so trunk space isn't an issue. At first I was considering 1 18", but I changed my mind because I don't want to fill my entire trunk w/ the enclosure First, would 1 12", or 1 15" be enough for a Crown vic since it's a large car? I've heard mixed feelings on this. If it is enough, I'm looking at the AQ HDC3 15" with either an MB Quart DSC2000.1D or AQ 1200D. The other setup I'm looking at is an …

I have some pretty good pieces of car audio for sale and I really need some money for college so that's why there for sale. This is what's available; Fi Q 15 w/BP power: $225 each Cadence DCA-2500: $400 Boston Pro 50s: $150 Alpine PDX 2.150: $150 I have two of the Fi Qs and only one of all the other items. If you want all of them, I'll sell it all for $1000 plus shipping but I'll throw in power wire, 6 channel patch cable, and distribution block. All that is worth about $200 and it's what was used for this system so you know you'll have everything to get it running. I lost pics and the gear is stored right now so if you interested and require pictuers let me know and I'…

Anyone have a tl near minot, north dakota?

Hey guys, I have friend who is just about to get a car (Acura TL, the older model, like 2004 maybe) and wants to put a system in it. He has about $1K to spend after setting aside some for wiring/installation of the electronics and some for MDF for the sub enclosure. He already has some JBL components for the front stage (not sure the model, but 70 watts RMS), so thats taken care of and I don't think he really cares about rear stage. So that makes $1000 for: Head Unit- ??? any ideas? Mid/High amp- Rockford Fosgate P400-2, Sundown SAX-125.2, Sundown SAX-50.4, others??? Sub Amp- Sundown SAZ-1000D, others? I figure thats probably a good amount of power to start him out with S…

I have a friend that I am helping and recently built a killer ported box for. He has a 98 F150 regular cab. The box is 2.3cuft and tuned to 33hz with the sub forward port to drivers side. He has a Memphis PR 12 d4 that is decent I guess but his biggest problem is the Sony Xplode 1000 watt amp. "POS" running it. I have it wired to 2 ohms and it dont like it, gets hot after only one or two songs, etc. Wired at 8 ohms it just doesnt power the sub enough. Last night I installed a set of Massive Audio VK6 6.5 components that was a huge improvement over the stock speakers lol. They are running off the head unit and sound fine. Even trying to advice him not to, he went to a lo…
