[email protected] My wife has an Ipod Nano, and also a Alpine CDA-9856, so she wants to use her new toy in my truck. I have the Pioneer DEHP-7700MP. Does the Pioneer AUX CDRB10 works good? And if so What else do I need? Thanks.

needs some opinions on a good 1/2 din eq for under 150. just what some people are using. the main thing that i want is two inputs not aux just frt and rear with three outputs but if i have to i can do without.

I currently have a P550MP (see sig) its a premier line, wma/mp3 capable, i believe 2.2V outputs (3 total) etc. etc. and was wondering if it would be worth it in SQ and features and just overall to spend the money to upgrade HU's? i would be buying the 860 used so i would be paying 200 ish...thanx for all the help...

what amp would be best matched with a 15" SSD w/ the bp option? orion 1200d RF t1001bd Sundown sae-1000 I can get the orion and rf for about 200 locally and I am waiting for the email back for the sundown. What would you guys choose? thanks for any input -Ryan

whats up guys and gals....i am installing 2 18" fully loaded btls being pushed by 2 us amps md-3d rated at 2000 dont think power rating for the question matters but oh well..anyway the question i have is how to run the subs on the amps so i can use 1 bass knob from 1 amp and not have to run both...the amps are multilinkable amps just not for sure how to wire...help out thanks alot

So me, the gf and the little one are going on a trip next week and I wanna get my DVD working in my truck so the little one can watch DVD's. Now, I wanna bypass the parking system feature on it so the little one can watch a movie or 2 on the highway. I know this is illegal but its only for this trip. We usually use the gf's vehicle but hers in the shop for warranty work. Whats the easiest way to bypass this?

I bought a 50 farad Stinger capacitor (dont make the whole cap vs battery argument thats not what im here for) and it came with instructions on how to install it using 2 amps, but i need the diagram to hook up 1 amp to it i need to figure out where i wire it up, it has 2 + and 2 - connectons and i cannot figure out which one is input and which is output i have correct grounds, atl, and wiring and it still dims with an fi bl12 and 1500 amp, please help me wire it up Patrick

i have a kicker zx1000.1 rated at 1258 watts total at 2ohms, and im goin to be buyin an 15" Fi BL soon with the p chamfer and the daily option on it. i listen to rap 99% of the time. so will that power be enough for a daily 15" Fi BL?? thanks

I'm really on the fence about this one. Don't really understand all the possibilities or what u can do with both style amps. Currently only have 4 2 way speakers and no amp and I'm not really sure if I'll ever be switching over to components. If I don't ever make the switch..is there any difference between a 2 and 4 channel on just 2 ways? Correct me if I'm wrong but if I have a 4 channel with components I can connect the tweeters to 2 channels then the mids and highs to the other 2? I'm eyeing the fosgate t400.2 and .4 there's only like a 15$ diff between them but the .4 is out of stock and I don't really wanna wait.. :/

just wondering how many runs of 0ga power wire will i need for my system it will be in my 97 expedititon it will have either 4 rockford fosgate amps or 5 sundown amps... fosgate wise 2 2500bds and a 1000.4 and a 400.2 ....and sundown 2 2500ds and 3 125.2s.... batts will be 4 xs power d3100 and a ho 270 amp alt. im only askin sence it has been so long and all my systems till now have never needed more than 1 run of 0ga wire

ok so i was still looking at buying a sub amp and i started talking to this guy that said he has a audiobahn A18001DT brand new in the box that he will sell me for $200....does that sound like a pretty good deal?,it sounds like one to me i just dont know alot about that amp.i know this amp retailed pretty high and everything but i wanted you guys opinion on this before i do it.

so i got an iraggi alt about a month ago and the battery indicator light(on the dash) was on the whole time, it died on me after 5 days, so i sent it back to iraggi. i installed a stock alt, everything was perfect, the batt light wasn't on. then i got the replacement alt from iraggi, got it installed and now the batt light is on again. the voltage is about 14.2. upgraded big 3 is this normal? its for a 2000 ford explorer sport 4.0L SOHC 240/165amp Amputator series Iraggi Alternator Optima Yellowtop(under the hood) Kinetik hc2400

Sup folks, I have a friend that is trying to figure out a way to make a mini ipod work with his stock cd player. THis is what he is trying to do and figure out. Can you tell me if its possible and if so how do you do it? "I have a 2000 Nissan Xterra SE with the factory head unit (CD/TAPE/CHANGER CONTROLLER DOUBLE DIN) and it doesn't have any inputs on the back other than a 12 pin connector for a cd changer (which I don't have). I'm trying to make an auxillary input out of the cd changer input so I can wire my iPod directly into the reciever for higher quality. In theory this should be possible assuming there is a way to get the reciever to switch over to the cd changer i…

Will be installing my second RF T1500bd-cp tuesday and need to know if i should use a spliter on my rca cable or use the pass thru on one of the amps?

My friend recently purchased one of these and he wanted to know if they were good or not?

I have a chance to get some Kinetik 16v batteries for about 150 bucks from a local shop.. i wouldnt be running on 16v but on the 12volt side, should i get them? they have 65 AH and are apparently very good. any questions or comments?

Ok I don't usually like to ask these type of versus questions but I've narrowed my replacement amp (for my blown RE35.1D) to these last 3(I needed a 1500 watt amp that is <18" in length and these were the only few i could find): -RF BD1500-1, the new model -Sundown SAZ-1500D -USAmps md2d The Sundown is the largest and the hardest to put on my amp rack but it's also the cheapest and from all the opinions I've seen a very nice choice. The USAmps is tempting though the most expensive choice. The RF is just tiny nd woud make installs easier. However, I can only afford it if I purchase it on ebay which means it will have a crappy warranty. Any opinion, positive or negative …

Hey all, I'm looking for a 1.5 DIN bluetooth capable deck. I haven't been able to find anything online, my local shop said they have them but I would rather get a nice internet deal first. At this point I'm open to any company as long as it is a decent functioning deck and won't look bad in the truck. Thanks a lot for any info, -Rob

Ill be getting my 270a alternator in Wednesday and was wondering what size fuse to use for the wire between the alt. & batt. I'm assuming a 100a ANL will be insufficient when the alternator is running full tilt.
