General Audio

Anyone have the Pioneer 3200BT HU? I have had mine for over a year now and I just recently bought the aux in/usb cable to play video from my ipod. Except there is one problem. . . I can't figure out how to get video to play on the HU, I have looked on the unit manual online and the video portion appears to be for a 3200DVD and when I am just using my Ipod it will play the music video's, but once I plug it into my HU I can get audio but no video. Anyone know how to fix this?

Why the hell delete the whole section.

Finally decided to see what the 8's could do. Here's the only pic I have so far. Will definately post up some finished pics/videos when it's done

2 JL 13.5w7's 2 JL 1000/1 amps You can see I have the box exactly where I want it but I'm having trouble drawing it up (yes i know it's not as good as google sketchup lol) * I need help with the port. Are my lengths correct? I need to get 26" and I think I have that but want some confirmation * Is the center divider a correct length?

Hey guys, this is going to be my first real long post on the boards, I apologize but im trying to get as much information out there to help you help me! (Skip to "cliff" notes/questions at bottom if reading my "book" is just too much) I have been reading up on this topic for the past week and Ive got a pretty good idea on where im going with my setup but its good to hear people's experiences and advice on wether this will really achieve what im looking for. Let me start off by saying that Im not an audiophile (at least I don't think I am , and by that I mean that I probably would not be able to detect minor differences in SQ from one SQ sub to another) but I am looking …

Ok so water got in one of my tweeters and I need replacements, I'm looking for soft or silk dome tweeters that sound very smooth. I would like the to come with there own crossover. I'm not going active til a little later. They will be paired with crescendos new pwx 6.5 pa speaker. I'll prolly cross the pwx at 3000hz or wherever the crossover points are on the tweet possibly. Budget is 80 and down. They will be ran on a mb quart 125.4. There are so many choices but hardly any reviews can one of you point me in a good direction?

In a 2006 Lincoln navigator front speakers, is there bass blockers on them......

Did a 149.4 on music sealed on dash Iasca style. Did a 152.4 outlaw on music and burped a 152.9 at 39hz. Did all that with a 29hz tuning on hdc3's!

Hello my fellow bass heads, i have a question for all you experienced compeditors, Doing my first meca show and the rules say i cant rev engine, so how do i increase my rpm? I've seen people at a show do something under the hood, but i could not see what, can someone on here PLEASE explain what and how they do that. Have til tomorrow to figure it out, Thanks in advance.

For most of the enclosures iv seen, they have separate chambers for each sub. Is this the way it is recommended to be done? Or will it also work with having both subs sealed in one box? Im simply trying to expand my knowledge about box building and I know you guys will help.

i've been looking all over for them any links to them i seen some audioque but they are like 30 bucks and i think there two long any links would be apreciated!

So yesterday after having my amp turned up and it sounding much louder and has some nice flex to it now (new vids).. I am going to take it to the next SPL competition and see what i place i get..it wont hurt to try and for my first time whatever place ill get ill be happy with.

Wondering if there are any events or comps or anything around my area? I live in lower southern Maryland, but am willing to travel and meet new peeps! Any help appreciated.

Just spreading the word to all the Michigan people... We have a even set up for next month! Post from the smd forum: just use the fbook event page to stay up to date & if you don't have a fbook post that here. Then I'll post updates here...

I know the big 3 can't hurt, but I'm on a super tight budget. I have a nissan maxima which apparently has a 100amp alternator. My set up includes a D-class mono amp that is rated at 340rms at 4ohms. I'll also be running a set of front components off an A/B two channel that does 100rms per channel at 4ohms. So playing it safe and rounding up, thats about 600rms total. Is it worth it to do the big 3? I was considering doing it in 4g, or just waiting to do it when I get more money down the road after a few month. I just dont want any heavy voltage drop or headlight dimming. What do you think? Thanks!

What is the correct wire harness for a 2006 lincoln navigator when adding a jvc kx-avx710

http://www.suspensionconnection.com/cgi-bin/suscon/60823-scion-xb.html Was looking at possibly bagging my car to help out with the stereo, but those kits are damn expensive. Came across this and feel that it would be way more beneficial seeing as my car does not need to go any lower. Just a few questions. Has anyone tried these? Or something similar. How well do they hold up. Do you constantly need to add air to it. Would the air kit be worth it? its like 180 bucks more. Figured it would be a good solution to the sagging back end from equipment.

Iv looked at home depot for 6" pvc tubing and i could only find 4"... i need 2 6" ports in my new box and its not very easy to find this tubing... i was hoping it would be cheap... but idkk now that it seems i can only buy 10' sections...

Now, Im not sure if this is actually done very often but it seems like a lot of laziness to me. Here is what my local shop did back when my dad first got the speakers installed. They simply spliced into the old connectors for the OEM speakers instead of just running new wire from front to back. But anyways, Im in the middle of rewiring anways so I guess i just need to cut those connections and tape up the loose ends for now.

The amp im buying says it takes 4 guage... but its a 1600rms amp. I also have a amp on my door speakers that takes 8 guage but do i run a 1 guage and a distribution? Or do i go bigger and try to cram bigger than 4 in the sub amp?

well my wife gives me a hard time for having subwooers in my ride , she thinks im to old for it im 45 and still love loud music i think i will allways have a system in my car , love to hear your responses

Alright well iv decided to get a 15"ssd with a soundstream rub1600. I need power wire... and should i get a capacitor?... i have all stock electrical. But i ordered a volt meter to watch and make sure my voltage dosnt go to low... but i am thinking a 5 cuft box with pvc ports... tuned to like 35hz... or lower... not sure yet. Possibly square interchangable ports.. its going in a tundra access cab.. any ideas? I have a sheet of like 3/8" plastic for a window in the box. Possible leds in the box... not sure yet but def a window. So any crazy ideas to make this build original? Im 18 but pretty skilled with a saw and router.. let me know.

My brain is fried from this long week. I can't even think enough to try to figure this out. If someone can tell me I'd owe them one of the beers I'm about to drink. Here is a picture. These are internal measurements. I just need to know the volume of this thing. Thanks in advance!
