Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical

I just got a list from the installers at the shop and they gave me a list of crap that i really dont need, but I have narrowed it to what I am going to get. If anyone has an idea of where i can order these somewhere cheaper that would b great. Anyway here is the list 150 amp Circuit Breaker 100amp CB 2 Ground T-Blocks--? Fuse Holder with 300amp fuse-- Batcap Rca's Speaker Wire 5 0/1 gauge o rings Can someone help me on where to get this.

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?

ok so my friend needs another battery terminal that has 2 1/0 openings. his other one for the positive has a 1/0 4/0 and 2 8/0's anybody know where i can get one with 2 1/0 guage inputs

Ok so here is my delemma. I just installed a crunch gp3000pro (new) and 12" btl (new), however the amp has no output. It powers on but that is all. I tried switching amps, no change. I tried a different sub and nothing. I changed rca cables and once again nothing. The head unit is a pioneer 980BT. The head unit is new also, but could this be the cause of my problem, or maybe wiring? I have a four channel hooked up as well and it works fine. The sub is d2 wired in parallel to 1 ohm which i checked as well. I am running out of ideas on what to troubleshoot so any ideas are greatly appreciated.

I'm asking for help on choosing an HU because i'm torn between these two. I'm not to crazy about all the setting so i didn't go the 880 way. Pioneer i know about the micro fuse problem but that can be avoided by grounding it properly. Alpine don't know much about it. does any one have experience with sat radio and i-pod on these two? cuz im gonna be goin with a sat radio they seem like nice additions. thank you dan

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…

Hey everybody, I'm looking around for an amp, so far I've been told to look up the US Amps AX3200DE and the Sundown Audio 3000. Both seem the same to me...anybody have any input on this? I'm looking to run an 18" BTL fully loaded for daily use (not so much for competition). Thanks, Andrew

What do you think of these prices and do you know of better prices. clicky----------->><((((*>

Hey I wanted to know if I could get some help for a friend. His car is a 98 Toyota Avalon and he recently bought a 250amp mechman alternator. He switched out his old alt for his new alt(Everything on the new alternator is a plug and play), revved the engine made some minor positioning adjustments to get rid of the squeeky loose noise. We went to a bank to get some money for my brothers install he did. The battery was dead for some reason. So we thought maybe the remote wire for the subs was touching the power wire while in the bank for so long. That wasn't the case. Anyways we got a jump and headed to a auto performance shop to put my brothers new muffler on. Well on the…

I just recently bought a pioneer avh5000 and I was wondering if there is a way to bypass it. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey everyone, I am taking the car in tomorrow to get my amps installed and I need to go get a wiring kit. I am looking for some quick advice on what I need and what gauge wire, I really would rather purchase this before hand then get overcharge at the shop. I want to go ahead and get all the wiring I will need for 2 sundown 1200's and a Sundown 100.4 I also am having a friend do the Big Three, What wire type/gauge will I need for that. I am only going to be running 1 or the 1200's and a older 2 channel amp, but I want them them to go ahead and install all of them so when I get the electrics upgraded I can go ahead and have it ready. Thx Josh P.S. I am having this …

I'm wanting to go with a 3-way active system in the SC sometime in the future. I already have a Pioneer 880 and a 10" SSA Icon. My question, though, is about signal. I know my HU had 3-way abilities, but is that for a tweeter, mid, sub set up? If I want to go tweeter, midrange, mid bass, and sub will I need an external processor?

About week ago while my truck was running and my music was playing my girlfriend opened my passenger door and my speakers started to hum. I seen the same problem with my friends amp "Foxmoto" and tried alot of things like changing my wiring, RCA's and my grounds about 5 or 6 times now and nothing seems to work. I have checked all the electrical and the readings are all normal. Any suggestions?

Now i have been saving up for a nice system for my mustang for a couple months now and have about $2500 im willing to spend on everything. I'm planning on getting 2 BL12's and 2 SSD10's. Now am i going to need two or more amps for these? And what kind of amp/amps should i get?

Hey guys, I was wondering about the difference between these 2 amps. My box for the 2 18" Btls is in the proccess of being built, and I am entitled to pick up 2 Powerbass XA 3000d's for 700 bucks a piece (brand new) and I was wondering if they are the equivilent to the Saz 3000d's and will perform as indicated? http://www.powerbassusa.com/products/ampli...xa_class_d.html http://www.sundownaudio.com/3000d.html thnks, Freddy

what are the benefits of using ur subwoofers on a external crossover? is there any difference from using a subsonic filter. running subs @ 35hz.

well i got robbed back in july in addition to hu being taken the radio bezel was also ripped out along with harness. so im getting ready to get another hu, possibly the same one (pio deh-p4900ib). i was looking at the wires yesterday and none of the wires looked familiar to me. so my question is how would i go about running the hu off the batt? i know i can ground(black wire) to the - and yellow(batt) wire can be wired to + of battery. how do i wire the red(ignition) wire? somebody chime in and let me know what i need to do safely step by step. this is going in a 99 mustang if that matters.

Hey guys price quoting around today....will 200 amp HO alt be sufficient for 2 18" Btls running 2 3000d amps? tnks again everyone for the help...will post pics of everything I recieve Freddy

so i am thinkin of using an excessive amperage alternator and would like to know how many of you use their alts and how good are they.... thanxxx

pretty much straight foward, I am getting 2 Q 15's and I am up in the air between these 2 amps, they are both around the same price and I was wondering some of your opinions on which will push/sound the best with the 15's. Also what is the BP option when you order the 15's? Thx Josh

Okay ppl I'm not really a beginner with stereo systems but I am a beginner with the more powerful stereo system set ups i guess you could say... a few questions I have... 1. How do you know whether you do or you don't need additional batteries and amplifiers to run your set up? 2. How do you determine how many batts/alts you need? 3. How would you mount/install multiple batts/alts? 4. What are the best quality but yet cheap types of batts/alts?

Hi everyone, I have a JL Audio 500/1 that is blown. the green power light will come on, thats it; no safety light or anything. when it powers up the green light will come on but there is no output. Ive taken the boards out and looked them over. i have not noticed any visual problems but i could have missed something. does anyone know anything about these amps or how i can trouble shoot the problem! i live in Indianapolis, Indiana; if anyone lives close you can take a look. Thanks in advance. Eddie Gossett

wiring two yellows! one red one black two yellows! i have never seen this before.
