Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical

well i was bored again the other day so i threw 1 of my oldschool kicker zr240s on 1 of my solo x's. it doesnt sound to bad. i do however have a second zr240 in perfect working order. so how would i go about wiring both of them up and linking them? i want both amps to be pushing the 1 solo x.iv never done it before and help would be appreciated. Thanks!

this is gonna sound dumb, but I know very little about running active set ups. I'm not planning on it anytime soon, but just trying to be better informed. Google has been no help. My question is how are the rca's ran in a situation like this: any old HU with front, rear, and sub preouts a good 4 channel like a SAX100.4 or similar standard 2 way com set with mid and tweeter. A diagram would help. Thanks Also same thing but with an active 3-way set up I'm just very curious about the signal

Anyone know the best place to get some 0 gauge wire for the lowest price?

I was planning on buying 4 of the C&D High Rate 100 lb batteries for my car. They do something like 140 aH. I can get them for under $200 shipped each. I was looking into the d3100 batteries along with other batteries which are almost double the price. How much of a difference is there between the C&D batteries and say the d3100? Is it worth the extra $700 total I would have to spend? I am powering 4 of the saz1500s, 1 100.4, and 1 120.2. I have a 260 amp alternator. Let me know what you think.

okay heres what i got, im lookin for a 4 channel amp for my friend 200 spending limit. choices so far are: Hifonics Zeus ZX6400 (with the best price offer) http://www.thezeb.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=101746 MA Audio HK598 http://www.ikesound.com/product-product_id/3780 let me know how htey are and any other reccomendations you might have

I have an AQX 3500 (loving it, stays pretty cool and no fires lol) but i was wondering if this amplifier would be ok at that low of an impedance if i had a proper electrical to support it and no bass boost. Thanks.

I did a few searches and found some similiar topics, but I couldn't find any that pertained to my situation. Currently, I have a modern alpine model, just a cheaper one. The 9881 I believe. I like the set-up of it a lot and use its iPod control almost exclusively over CD's. I am looking to upgrade though for some more options for tuning. These are the two big ones that seem to be somewhat similiar, but have a few different options. I will definetely need the head unit to have good iPod control. I have a phone that can utilize the bluetooth of the pioneer as well. What would you guys reccomend? if i chose the 9887, i would have access to an imprint mic i would be able to u…

okay so i just got a little amp and was going to install it at my house with a psu but the problem is that the remote turn on on the amp how will that work i do not have a headunit so yeah.

Just curious if the kinetik will be an upgrade compared to the stock G34 I have up front. The kinetik is smaller than the stock battery, but it's also a battery designed for this type of thing. Might sound like a no brainer but I wanted to make sure.

can someone finish this diagram for me? keep in mind, i will have TWO sets of horns, and TWO relays. so i need to know how to hook up the one switch for both sets of horns, to both relays. also, i just need one fuse for both power wires going to the relays right? what amperage should i get? the horns are Hella Supertone 85115's.

I have a 4 ohm sub so should i be looking for an amp that has the subs recommened rms at 4 ohms or how do i pick the right amp. i know thats not real clear but i couldnt figur out how else to word it.

Needs to have gps navigation, touch screen, and a good set of features. Budget is around $1200. Fire away.

Where can I get one and how much are they?

I am running power from rear battery to amp. My question is will I be ok with 24in from battery to the fuse holder (300A fuse)then from there 56in to amp? Or do I run 12in from rear battery to fuse holder then a run to amp?

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

My buddy wants a cheap system installed in his car. He already has a deck and speakers, just wants a little amp and a little bit of bass. His HU in an intro line Pioneer, bout a year old. It doesn't have a seperate sub out, but only has one pair of outputs. I know he wont have subwoofer control, but could you hook up the one pair of line outs (front) to the sub amp? I don't really see any reason why not, I've just never had to think about it before. Always had 3 sets of outputs. I know its probably a stupid question, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If an amplifier is receiving a bandpassed input from the head unit of say 60hz - 2000hz and I used the RCA out from the amp to another amp will the second amp receive the same frequencies as the first? I would think so as I dont see how it could be full range as it's not receiving full range input from the source. Just thinking and wanted to double check with some of you guys to confirm. ?

I have a fi bl and a sundown 1500d and lately my sytstem hasnt been playing as loud as usual. it just dont have the edge it usually does. If i had to guess i would save ive lost a full 2 db. its not my voltage cause it stays right around 13.3 a lil wire came loose on my old rca's but i bought some new ones and it STILL sounds the same. What other reasons could be causing this not to play as loud?

Hey guys. I'm looking for a new HU. I like in dash screens rather than flip out. But I'm looking for a HU that will work with my setup. I ordered a FI BTL 18 powered by a hifonics 2600, also I have a DC power HO alt on Its way. Any suggestions appreciated

to run two kicker cvx DVC 4 ohm speakers (will be running them at 1 ohm). looking to spend between 300-350$ if anyone has any other amps they might suggest. Thanks!

What car do u prefer for hit more db? A Toyota Rav4 2005 or A Toyota Tacoma Extra cab 2005 My system is 2 TRF 12" and 2 T20001. what car do u prefer for competition and hit more db

does anyone know if this amp can do 0.5 ohm daily?

are the hifonics amps still any good would anyone recommend them i had one about 4 years ago and it was stout its in my friends car and still playing. do they still do they still put out as much as they claim

I accidentally cracked the cone of my Fi Q12 not paying attention to having cargo secured properly. Anyhow, It's been replaced but once I put it back together, the woofer practically has zero output and what's there sounds really distorted. I double checked my ground and it reads .2 ohms. Power to the amp is good (reads 12.65V on battery). Reading across the woofer coils is good (1.2ohms). I swapped out a new RCA thinking maybe that's it and still the same thing. Messing around with the head unit and amp settings make no difference. I even replaced the woofer completely and it also does the same thing. I've got a Sun Down SAZ-1500D V.3 amp I ordered back in Octobe…

Hey I just ordered one one these little guys dual voice coil http://www.tcsounds.com/forums/index.php?s...c=1013&st=0 I haven't had to buy an amp in a long time and dont know whats the good budget amp for now adays. I've thought about the Alpine MRD-M1005, the Hifonics ZXi1006 and even the new Phoenix Gold RSd1200.1. Whats probably my best bet from those? They can all be found for around $300, which is the price I'd like to stay at. Any other recomendations would be awesome too. Thanks to all who can help
