im lookin to finally upgrade my electrical im only running 1 1200 but i have big plans coming im just looking for a good batt for under the hood then add some to the back thanks.

Did a quick search on the forums and came up empty. I saw somebody post a link to one on ebay a while ago, but I can't seem to find it. I'm not positive that that is the correct name... When I say voltage meter, I mean something like this. Feel free to correct me if I'm using that phrasing incorrectly. Just wonderin where I can find the best one for the money.

Just about an hour ago, I was listening to some beats. I stepped out of the car and popped the trunk to observe the sub itself for a second, I was using the remote (if this matters). I then paused it, got back in my car, turned the volume down, and when I looked back at the HU it was black. I pressed reset, turned the car on/off. Nothing seems to work. I don't think a fuse blew because the motor for the cd changer still works. Any ideas? Kenwood KDC X794

what will i need to power these two beasts?

Hello everyone! Im looking at the cda-9887 and was wondering if this would be a good choice for my setup? My front stage is going to be a 8 inch midbass in each door, and a soundstream FR-60C comp. set with 6.5 inch in kick panels and the tweeters up on the sail panels just above the dash,I want the 8 inch midbass speakers to be bandpass at as low as 60 herts and as high as 400 herts, and then the comp. set to play above 400 herts. I HAVE 2 amps, (ppi 2600) one for the 8 inch speakers and the other for the comp. set. Is the crossover on the CDA-9887 adjustable so …

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.

I'm looking into getting a vehicle with a little more space for some more beat. Right now I have a dual 2 ohm Fi BTL N2 18 being run by an AQ2200D at 1 ohm. If I was to upgrade the system, I would probably get another AQ2200D and another dual 2 BTL. I realize that I could run 1 amp to each sub, but I was wondering if linking the amps made a cleaner signal. It is my understanding that 2 ohms @ 4400 watts is better than 1 ohm @ 2200 watts x 2. If I was to link the amps, how would I go about doing it? What would need to be input/output from either amp in order to run 4400 watts @ 2 ohms? Thanks guys! <--------------

simple question... if i remove the cover on my amp so the guts are showing under the plexiglass, and mount a pair of fans similar to this: http://74.175.101.66/dealer/itemdesc.asp?C...amp;eq=&Tp= one per side pushing/pulling to create good cross ventilation, do you think it would be adequate? I think that i am going to hang onto my mtx a little longer since for the price i can't really beat it, and since i don't really like the looks i wanted to try exposing the board. how dramatically will this affect the amps cooling capabilities?

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).

Okay so im debating over some amps to power my two RE SE 12's. I've benn looking at some and tell me what you think. Hifonics 1608D Us Amps XT2000D Us Amps MD1D AQ 1200D My budget is 190

hey guys im putting a new system in my car and i pretty much have everything i need except for wires, amp kits and a box. my focus right now is to get wires that are the best suited for my system right now. Im not sure what type of wires or amp kits i should so any help would be awesome. I have a 2002 toyota camry Kenwood excelon headunit Image Dynamics 6.5" 2 ohm Component System (CXS62 V.2) (front door speakers) (1) 12" Alpine Type-R sub (SWR-1243D) sundown audio SAZ-1000D (1-channel mono amp) (for sub) sundown audio SAX-125.2 (2-channel amp) (for the front speakers) i think knukonceptz.com has some pretty good wires but i just dont know what type i should get, what ki…

Gotta love em batteries.. but its time for something else any suggestions on a good under the hood battery. I've been looking at xs and optima not to impress with yellow tops.

ok im runnin low on resources to complete my install..so i was thinking of ways to save some money... Im going to be runnin 2 amps...a BX1000D and an older PG QX4150 fuses are 60 and 40 the Brutus takes 4 gauge while the PG takes 8 Now heres my question...i was gonna run 1/0 from the batt to the distroblock then split it into 4gauge and 8 gauge Now instead im thinking of runnin 4gauge from the batt then split it at the distro block into another 4 and 8 gauge Anyone against doin that?

I have 2 Audioque 2200d amps..My question is what type of electrical would i need? My car has a 160 amp alt,and i have 2 deka g31,would that be good for it? Its gonna be for daily usage..Thanks for any help.

i got 2 12' HCs, there for daily, so im decidin a amp. i was gonna get 2 bx1000ds but i diddnt no if i should spend extra to get the bx1500ds instead. but i think 3k watts will be to much for daily. also i got a 80 amp alt so i doubt ill be able to run either of them without upgrading. also i was thinkin of a tsunami 1800db but i heard ppl havin probs wit em. also i does any sites still sell them? ty, and if u no any amps i would like for aroun 450-500 post them.

Im gonan run 2 batts. Im gettign ready to pick them up in a few minutes here and wanna make sure I get the right ones. 34/78 under the hood and a 3100 in the rear?

man this post puts a damper on upgrading alternators for me. Anyone know how to get around this PCM stuff other than rewinding/rebuilding.

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

Just wondering if anybody knows anything about the Rockford Fosgate RF-BLD. it says install it as close to the source unit as possible, why is that? Why can't it go in the trunk by the amp?

hey guys..im about to order some 1/0 to do the big 3 in, and was wondering if it was worth the extra money to buy welding cable, or if knu 1/0 would do the same thing. Im only asking because i've heard some people say bad things about knu because its not pure copper. Also..do you think 15 feet would be enough..its on a 01 cavalier. Thanks!

I am wondering how to go about wiring 2 older fin style rf bd 1000.1 amps to a single 18" old 3 stack Fi btl. The sub needs a recone so I could get dual 2 or 1 ohm coils.both the amps have the spot for the sync cord.the real question I have is one amp to each coil @ 2 ohm? or get the dual 1 ohm coils and run both amps in parallel to both coils in parallel? I never used the bd sync cord, don't know if I should trust it? I don't want one workin harder than the other.as u guys know I'm looking for a 2 ohm load on these amps. Thanks a ton for any input!!!

I am gong to be getting 4 Rockford fosgate t2500-1bdcp's and im wondering if there was a way to calculate exactly how much power I will need. I am planning on getting 2 DC 300 amp Spx alternators and 5 xs 2700 Batteries. will that be enough or does anyone have any other suggestions?

I am looking for specs on efficiency and THD for .5,1,2 ohm applications of the Q13500D.1, basscleff 5500, and sundown sa2 5000. while these manufactures list there 4Ohm and even 2 ohm on some, none of them seem to have any detailed specs on 1ohm loads and as for sundown i cant seem to find ANY specs to speak of on their website so im some what leery there. does anyone know that the exact THD, signal to noise, and efficiency is at 1ohm loads for these amps? thanks.

I just finished my box for 4 8" sundowns. Its a big center console box for my single cab ranger. Its 2.4 cu. ft (after displacement) and is ported @ 34hz. I'll post pics up soon. BUt im gonna order the subs this week and am im looking for an amp to push them. What should i get as far as a amp/s?

well my stock alt (105a) is starting to chit out on me. at red lights, the volts drop real low, and the car sometimes will shut off then back on real fast....its not the batt, i tried it with my stocker, as well as a kinetik 2400. its prally when i played my powerbass xa3000d on the stock batt, and the alt couldnt keep up recharging the batt....
