I am in the market for a new alarm with remote start, this will be going in my mustang. I'm going to have it professionally installed by a friends shop. Currently What I am looking for is an alarm with remote start, two way pager, a decent range 1000-1500ft, 2-Way remote with tone and vibe modes. I am looking into the Avital 5303, but I would prefer a remtoe that actually includes all the buttons into one but is not exactly required. I am looking for some suggestion and reviews. Price I would like to hit would be around 200-300 for the alarm its self. Thanks.

How many ampere's should 1/0 be fused to? im thinking 200a just to be safe because if my stock charging system exceeds that something is wrong.

Well... I reciently bought a Pioneer DEH-P940MP. I was planning to run the front speakers acvive and the rears passive. However, I didnt see in the manual that you can do this. I NEED rear fill, burbs are huge inside, components up front arent going to be able to be heard way in the back. I do carry passengers. I had 2 ideas on how to accomplish this. Run a LOC off the H/U's rear speaker outputs to the amp for the back speakers. Thats if the signal is not seperate (trebel/midrange). I dont know if the internal amp even works in this mode. It cant be shut off so its definetly on. Or... Get 4 Y splitters. Use the output RCA's on the amp and " blend" the treble and mid range…

I have a 400 watt class A/B amp running 2 10's right now. When I'm listening to rap music, after an hour or so, the amp shuts down from overheating, even if I don't have the volume up too high. Should I switch to a class D amp or would it not be worth it? I listen mostley to rap, but listen to rock and country too, I like to have acceptable SQ.

Anyone else seen them floating are Facebook? http://www.twistedsoundscaraudio.com/?redirect=false

i have a ram mega cab and a sundown 2000d amp. what is the best 12in sub.

is this the right configuration to achieve a 1 ohm load?

Alright so I had a nine.1 I bought used. Worked great for a couple months then all 4 fuses would blow on it. So I sent it to eD under warranty. Finally recieved one back after like 3 months of waiting. Installed the amp, worked for about 5-10 minutes then did the same thing. The amp was extremely hot to the touch also. eD wasn't much help so I decided to say fudge it and I purchased a used SAZ-1500D from Jacob which should be arriving Monday. I've been talking back and forth with Jacob about this problem and he said that there might be a short in my power wire. Theres only one spot where the rubber encasing is wore down a little bit but none of the wires i…

Im looking to get one battery once i pick up my new car, i was reading some threads about the YT sucking after 1 year or so, i will be running a Hercules(2000x1) What would you guys recommend?

Ok so i noticed yesterday that my radio would cut out at high volume so i went to the truck looked at the wires and erething seemed coo, I hop back in and it wrlks so i start driving and it does it again... So i justy turn it off and say i'll deal wt it later, so today i get the test light out and go under the hood, and DAAAMMM, my fuse holder was melted and it had started to melt into my finder well.. But the fuse never blew, and basiccly it was only on the side before the fuse. IT was molting i mean the gold was melted off it looked bad i would take pics but its uggly.. Why did this happen? I've seen it happen on amplifiers wt plastic coatings around the batt terminal,…

As the title says this will be about the older fosgate 1000.1bd. Im not sure i understand the class"BD" thing? how does that compare to a regular just class D amp? Also im going to have to double check but im almost positive the SSF on the amp at its lowest setting is only 50hz, can that hurt me at all as far as sub performance? i have a box tuned in the 33hz area. just looking for any kind of technical answer to help understand this amp better and decide if it needs to be put up in the garage and replaced lol.

Audioque is already aware of this so while i wait for shipping delays, i wanna know if u guys can think of how this happened before i have to wait a week before they tell me. I have 2 AQ2200ds strapped together. The power light was always on on both amps so no reverse wiring there. They never went into protect. Voltage sitting at 13.5v Gain half way, subsonic all the way down, lpf at 110hz. Preout voltage 4v, preout maxed out on head unit, Sub output is turned on, bass is on +3 boosted at 80hz. I was on the phone with AW and everything was verified that everything was hooked up 100%. Even the resistance on the terminals read 1.4ohms so everything was perfect. Turned on th…

i just intall my some what done system and its sounds ok no rattle at all, you guys might say wow great but there is a problem i cant crank it up i get a major voltage drop i did the big 3 already. I have a kicker kx 2500.1 on 2 15's L5 at 4 ohms with a red top under the hood and they are in a crown vic 96 i believe the alternator is 130 amps. i have several things on mind buy another battery or buy an alternator svr battery http://www.svrbatteries.com/battery_page.php?bid=25 kinnetik battery http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...rksid=p3907.m29 alternator http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/200-amp-Amp...itemZ7960517007 what will make it better any s…

Clarion DVD head unit with a 7 inch flip out monitor , 2x Kicker CVX 12 inch Dual 4 ohm (750rms) each wired to 1 ohm in a sealed box , Orion 2400D mono channel amp wired @ 1200 watts rms 1 ohm , Memphis M-class 4 channel 75 rms x 4 , Memphis 6x9 in the rear 85 rms each , Eclipse 5.25 inch 3 way components in the front . Optima red top under the hood , Optima yellow top in the trunk , and a Kinetics cap-killer equivelent to 100 1:farad caps . MY QUESTION IS - how do you know what frequency is best suited for your amp/sub setup - to get best spl/sq - or do you just play it by ear ?????????????

i was wondering if i could power one rl-p 18 with an aq2200d. would i get the sub in d4 and wire it in parallel to get a 2 ohm load, (which is 1300watts ). or should i get d2 and wire it in series to get a 4 ohm load? (740 watts) the soundsplinter website says 500 to 1000watts.

who make a bass processor like the basscube

Which is better Passive or Active? After askin on other threads i figured out the difference, but not sure which one is best. All i can figure is Passive would be better because you can use one channel of amplification and get 2 or 3 way crossover, and have that one channel power 2 or 3 speakers. So = better use of power. For Active you need one channel for one speaker. so more power is required by needing more channels, but that give you more control, right? Will one sound better than the other?

im looking for a amp around $300.00 shipped its for 2-12a in a ported box 3.5cuft @30hz jamie

So i recently got a pair of DC Audio Subs..1000rms/2000 max.... well i have been told that it since they are a pair of 2ohm subs that a mono amp will not push it to the amps max.. i am looking to spend at the most 350.. I would really apppriciate the help:)

will my alternator be able to upkeep a semi truck battery? getting one soon so i need to know. thanks. al

Looking towards buying a new amplifier for my Fi BTL N2 sometime this summer and looking at my options. I can obviously do as much research on my own as possible but numbers are just numbers, Id like to ask people who have experience with these amplifiers and your opinions on what I should get. I have around 4 different amplifiers that Im currently looking at, all around the same prices. Dont really want to spend over $700 and will buy used if need be. 1. Sundown SAZ-2500D (used) or SAZ-3500D (Refurbished) 2. DD M3a (new) 3. Orion 2500D (Found one locally used) 4. Crescendo BC3500D (new) Any input much appreciated and also FYI, Im running a stock battery upfront, big 3…

Ok eclipse 8053 just hooked up my BLA yesterday.

Okay, So here in a few days I am ordering some Mach5 MAW-15's and I was wondering what Amp would be best to push them...... I have a list of some amps that I "THINK" would work good with them. So tell me what u think. Feel free to inform me of any amps that arent on the list that would be good for the MAW's Kenwood KAC-9103 US Amps XT-2000D Kicker ZX1000.1 Crunch PZi 1000.1 Hifonics BXi 1606D Hifonics ZXi 1006 Kenwood KAC-9152D. ~MadroX

Hey guys, I have been searching high and low trying to find a bass knob for my Sundown Sae-1200d, and I cannot find one anywhere. Any suggestions as to where I can find one?

Just recently ordered 25 ft of 1/0 gauge from weldingsupply.com for what I thought was a good price. I just received the cable yesterday and Im slightly disappointed because its deffinitely on the skimpy side. Anyone have any experience with weldingsupply? Im just looking to see if you guys were satisfied with your order.
