just waiting on the guy to respond to my question asking is it working and so forth since he didnt post any of that stuff.link

On my T1500, I'm wondering if I should leave the Infrasonic Filter on or off. It came from the factory with it off, I can't tell much of a difference with it on. Right now I've got the frequency set at around 110. I've heard everyone say to set it around 80, and it does sound a little deeper there, but on some songs, "Late Night Tip" mainly, there are some bass notes that are left out with it at 80. With it set a little higher, I can hear everything. I've got the gain set at 5, and the Punch EQ set around half way. Anyone think I should change anything? Just figured I would see what everyone's opinion is.

So its been awhile since i have made a topic on here. So, i moved houses the past week and when i was cleaning out the garage i found a brand new alt my dad bought for his lumina that didnt fit. Would it be worth making a dual alt bracket and putting two stock alts in my truck? or is that just a waste of time?. I mean i already have the alt, so that was free, and i figured to make a dual alt bracket it wouldn't be to hard considering i have access to my high school metal shop. so the question is would it be worth making that or should i just buy a new alt?

Before I start going through the troubleshooting list since there is noise with the radio turned off I was thinking there might be a quicker answer. Here goes, my brother had his system installed a couple of years ago in his VW "something" I think jetta but it worked fine the whole time but a week ago all of a sudden there was noise with the radio turned on or off using the turn signal, winsheild wipers, rpm, pretty much anything electrical coming through the speakers with radio on or off like Lelu please help

I am just wondering, how do you calculate the voltage output of an amp? Also how do you calculate the amperage output?

I'm just curious without the ac converterr, what would happen if I cut the power wire and connected it to the battery, or a 12 volt connection. Would it A. burn up the ps2 B. Not get ebough power C. work just fine. I say B

today i got my new amp hifoincs Brutus bxi2006d looks damn good

I have a nendo BC2K that got a small amount of water in it,popped 2 transistors/mosfets.I'm having a hard time cross referencing the fets.I dont know if I have the P channel or the N channel fets,digikey pulls all sorts up.part number is IRF 3205.I'm grateful for any help.

Amp under 420 that'd be good for my ia death penalty one that'is has sub sonic filter etc thanks was looking at hifonics brutus 2100 what sub sonic filter do I need it says up to 35hz not sure what to get help Was in between the Brutus 1700.1 and Brutus 2100.1

Here's the deal - I'm working on putting my system together. I want to make sure I have my electrical taken care of. Amp will be 3000rms I was thinking about the following options: Option 1: Big 3 HO Alternator - 165amp Idle / 260amp higher rpm ---------- Option 2: Big 3 Stock Alt - new, but stock. XS Power D3100 Battery --------- Option 3: Big 3 Stock Alt 2 HC1800 Batts ------------------------------------------------------ Amp would probably be GP3000D running to 2 15" MTX 9500s. Or could I do a HO Alt - which is going to be $500 for the one i'm looking at, and maybe an optima yellow up front? Any help appreciated.

Wanting to add to my existing alarm, thinking about adding perhaps two exterior sirens, current one is hurting. Also like the idea of having one or two piezo sirens inside the cabin. I have seen these refered to as pain generators. Any of you have input on particular brands which might stand above others in performance? I also wanted to know if adding the additional sirens and alarms will require any additional wiring aspects, I guess I mean can I just wire multiple sirens or will I need additional installation knowledge or products? Thanks for your help and input. Chop

I currently have a Pioneer 9800BT headunit with the ipod interface. I want to run active and unfortunately this headunit is not capable of meeting my needs. I want a headunit that is very SQ and processing oriented. I was looking at the Pioneer 880prs hoping that it could be a direct drop in. What is the difference between the 800 and the 880prs? Also is the new eclipse CD7200MKII far superior then the 880prs? and how does the alpine 9887 stack up in this lineup. This headunit will run to a sundown 100.4 amp which amps Peerless HDS tweets and the sea excel 18nx mids. Any suggestions and opinions would be appreciated.

yeah, so today after work, i installed all my 0 gauge wiring from that 5 gauge that was in there before. i also went from the little 60 amp fuse under the hood to a 250 amp fuse. now before the switch, everything sounded good. nice stead, clean bass. but ever since i put in the 0 gauge wire, it gets louder, then softer and loud again and doesnt sound very clean. i messed with the setting on the amp to see if anything had changed and still got the same results. any ideas on what this could be? i also installed new RCA's if that matters.

Has anyone tried the 8120 out? I am really considering it because of its seemingly endless list of functions. What other good double dins have you all tried?

Hey everyone. Does anyone have a good used amp for sale? Mono block 2ohm between 500 & 1000 rms watts.

ok, I am helping Brian look for an amplifer, he has on order 2 RL-p 12 D2's from the group buy, and now he is in need of an amp, so we need a final load of 2 ohms mono with about 600 to 1200 watts to push the subs, he is not trying to win any tropies just have damn good sound.. he is putting this all into a 2k4 Explorer in the cargo compartment which sits below the floor of the rear cargo area, after some quick measurements and no moddifications he has about 16" wide max, 1' deep, 5" thick to work with for the amplifer to sit down in.. so I thought that a few options would be: - the MTX 801D, good amp, great price, low on features, solid performer when pure power is the …

I'm finally getting around to installing the stuff I've had for over a year now. I'll be putting 2 RE 8's powered by a USX 2080. My deck is an old JVC El-Kameleon KX-something or other (the best Kameleon they had), I'll be using the deck's sub outs because I'm too cheap to buy a crossover for now, and the highs are Infinity Reference 6x8's. That was all because I know I'd get asked. Anyway, I need a wiring kit for the amp. Denim has informed me that someone on here makes and sells them on the cheap? Hook a brotha up

anyone with these amps new let me know...receiveing sub this week and I am preparing. I am looking to up-grade the amp I have been tallking about I now have......G.

is it good to have less or more of it? and also why do most companies only post THD of 4 ohms, does it change with each load?

I'm planning on using some exotic wiring on being able to switch from 2ohm to 0.5ohm for competition via a switch so i do not have to rewire for an hour at every show. I see some copper made 80A relays. What i want to know is this, here is my scenario- Maximum burping current draw can be up to 85A AC. So i opted to use 2 80A relays per speaker in parallel for 160A of heat dissipation. Since Relays only use 10AWG quick disconnects, will quick disconnects be sufficient enough for this wiring? I plan on running modded inserts for 4awg wiring off each terminal of sub to a junction block. Then from there, 10awg to each relay pin, output to another junction box of 8…

Dave maybe you should sell the PG for this beast but any way here is the link to the page on their site: http://www.soundstream.com/sub/products_amps_xxx.html

This has been bugging me so help! For my daily driver SQ system I need to power: 12" Soundsplinter Rl-p --sealed 7" Seas W18e0001 -- IB in custom kicks Alpine F1 Status Tweet D2904/61001 on a pillars Old School Amplifiers I have already--power listed at 4 ohms: PG zx475ti -- 75x4 , 250x2 PG M44 -- 55x4, 160x2 Alpine 3032 -- 30x2 Sony XM-3520 -- 35x2 Pioneer GM-2000 -- 50x2 My current setup has the zx475 running the Rl-p with 250w on ea coil and the M44 bridged running my front stage passive. I plan on using the setup as is but going active and using one of my other amps for powering the tweeters. My concern with the Alpine is the lack of gains and its size. The other…

i want to get a FI Q 15 with BP and want to power it with a Bxi-1206D and then get a pdx100.4 for my speakers. just wondering what i would need to do to run it all and if i am ok with stock alternator??

Hi, I'm getting a Mach5 MAW15(for now), and was wondering which amp you would buy, based on price/quality? I don't want to go more than $400. Precision Power PC2150RB(used, but almost new) = $260 Zapco REF500.1(new) = $380 US Amps Merlin MD22(new) = $180 US Amps Xterminator XT800.2(new) = $125 Any other recommendations are appreciated . Thanks for the input. BTW, sorry if you ask a question right away and I don't respond. I'm going to bed right now(stupid graveyards).

has anyone ever used a mono block to power coaxials? i currently have two pairs of planet audio torq 6.5" speakers, wanting to know if it'll work ok running them on a jl 250/1.
