I'm looking for an amp around 2500 watts @ 2 ohms or .5 ohms (but I can buy new subs to match a 1 ohm load) I'm willing to buy used. What do you guys think I should be looking for?

Ok well i got rid of the D3, and got a CDA-9887. LOL, bid difference i know. But before i've even done any sound setup or tweaking my subs instantly sounded better after they were turned on. But DAMN there are alot of sound options. I tried for 10 mins just to setup the HPF so i can take the bass out of the front and rear speakers to no avail. Needless to say at this point i feel kinda dumb. But i've been really busy today so i haven't had a chance to read the manual. I knew this deck had alot of options but man this is rediculous. I still have the stock hi's in my car but i plan on changing them out. And i know that everyone is going to say go ACTIVE. So before…

Do not purchase these amps from the ebay seller riversidetrade they are defective. They were never supposed to be released to the public. The heat sink is to small causing them to overheat and fail. On the good ones the heat sink extends out beyond the case. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...;Category=39739

alright so theres a problem that bothers the hell out of me I want an amp I am stuck between the sundown saz-1500d and the audioque aq2200d. the audioque does 2200 at 14.4v Im aware that that it would be almost impossible for me to keep that voltage .SO my main question is which one to get does anyone know what the audioque will put out at like 12.5 to 13 volts thanks for the help guys.

Hooking up a second battery is something I've never done. Do I run a wire from the starter battery to the secondary battery. Or do i run a wire from my alternator to the secondary battery. What kind of fuse do I use? More than 1 on each end? Thanks

I know this may sound kind of odd, but is there any way that i can run a car amp out of my room wall socket? I was thinking maybe something like a 12v DC adapter from some random thing, but i don't want to fry my amp. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance, Mike B.

how are they any good type by them?

if anybody has heard or used any of these,, please lemme kno your thoughts on them. sony xav-a1 Kenwood KVT-617DVD \RB Kenwood KVT-617DVD JVC KD-ADV38 Panasonic CQ-VD7005U Valor ITS-703W or 702 planet audio P590V

I've been seriously considering this deck lately. For what its got its really one hell of a deal. Anyone have any info on the new pioneer decks? http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Pro...ers/DEH-P800PRS

my question is im buying 2 fully loaded 12" fi btl's i was wondering if the sundown SAZ-3000d would be enuff power for both of the subs or should i get 2 straped i was only looking to get exactly the rms watts or close as possible or really just enuff power to make them hit nice so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

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…

I picked up a cdx-c90 the other day but it didnt come with either of the 2 remotes. The remote I need is the RM-X9. Does anyone know if theres another sony remote thats comptaible with this deck?

has anyone ever tried this? http://www.zzperformance.com/grand_am/prod...8&catid=145 looks promising if it works like they claim. i don't have voltage drop just wondering if it actually helps.

what the rms of the aq1200d

Hey guys, I recently got my 1/0 gauge wire in the mail the other day, I am prepping it up with the clamps and getting the right sizes, and I look on the website and I see that I need a fused wire. I looked at the big 3 post and it says I should get the factory sized fuse. Can I get some pictures or some detailed information about the setup involved into this? I looked into the Big 3 post and nothing is explained into detail.....Only what it is. Any information would greatly help. Thanks, -Curt

Ok i am in the need of a new alternator for my truck. The stock one that i have is a 65 amp model. My future plans are 2 10" or 12" icons, and 2 1000 sundowns, or 1 1500 soundown. I am planning on getting my alt rebuilt to 150 amps, or get a 200 amp powermaster. I'll be running between 2 and 4 batteries in my bed box(Deka Intimidator Battery's for now). Ill be running atleast one run of 1/0 or 2/0 to each battery in the back (maybe overkill, but i dont want there to be a big a drop in the voltage). I have talked to a couple of mechanics and they all say that if i upgrade my alternator to that many amps that i will be running the chance of catching my truck on fire due…

Can someone tell me how you reset a Sundown SAE-1000W amp?

just got my soundstream xxx6500, on a trade for a componet set, what do you think about it? what comments do you have from people who have one or used one?! any suggestions? will two kinetik 2400 be enough power for it?

so we got everything put in, and long story short, the subs just make a popping sound about every second...kinda funny Ive never heard it before. we wired up one sub to the mid amp and it beats for only 400 watts. so is my amp shot? power supply....? this would be the second time Ive got shafted on an orion 2500d, and I'm about to give up.

hi guys, never had any experience with audioque Im thinking of getting a aq2200d and a 15 hdc3 for now any suggestions,experience,pros cons would be greatly appreciated!

which one would u pick. well i have a mtx 1501d with stock everything right but this amp is power hungry. i'm looking to get the kicker ZX1000.1 and mayb it will be less stressful on my electrical system. 1. mtx 1501d 2. kicker zx100.1 3. crunch ground pounder 2500d

Does anybody know where I could find a non-working US AMP :VL-400,USA-400,100HC-or does anybody know if the new amps use the same boards or boards that will fit in the old chassis? I have a USA-400 with a hole burnt in the board,but I want to use this old purple chassis since I have a matching USA_200.Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm helping a friend install some subs he has had for quite some time now, and I'd like to let him have an amp that I've been trying to sell for what seems like forever but I'm not sure if it will work. He has 2 JL Audio 10w6 (old school version) and they're DVC 6ohm which means I can wire them to either get 6ohm impedence or 1.5ohm. My question is will the JBL GTO601.1 II amplifier work? It says maximum power at 2ohms and I've heard of some people wiring them at 1ohm, but it voids the warranty. Will this be a problem or should 1.5ohm be okay? any help is appreciated -John

What kind of wiring am i going to need, assuming 1/0 gauge? So far i have: SUB: Fi 15" BL AMP: saz-1500 ENCLOSURE: 3.8ft^3 @ 32 hz i have no clue how much and what kind of wiring i am going to need.

http://www.millionbuy.com/pakov22600.html how is that amp? does it make the power it says? I need to run 4 aa 8's at about 300 watts per sub and would like a little more power to have
