Does anybody know of any really good double din's out there that have everything u need for a sick system?

What do you use to islolate the front & rear battery??? ...should I use a battery isolator; or, will a high power relay work ok?

alright so i have a cheap walmart wet cell battery under the hood.... now i bought i xs power d3100 to run my amps off of in the trunk.... can i wire the 2 batteries parallel together or should i just run them seperate to the alternator ?? if i should run them seperate how should i do it ?? i wasnt sure if i could run them together since one is a wet cell while the other is a dry cell. i wanna run my cars electrical off of the walmart battery and the amps off of the d3100.

A few hours ago I put a Sony Head unit in my friends car. Not sure what model; her parents took it out of their old car. Once it was wired up, we tested it. The tuner was coming in static-y or not at all, depending on how we moved the antenna wire around. It was a 2000 corolla and didn't require an antenna adapter. The cd function and aux function work fine and sounds clear. They listened to fm radio with the factory HU on the way here, with no problem. Any ideas?

the red got ripped out of the harness to my 4900 in my crash, where is the best place to get the replacement harness for this?

Right now I have an saz-2500d and I am getting the electrical to power it sufficeintly. As for batteries, the one I have now is a perfectly fine battery, I do not know what kind of amperage its putting out but it is a stock carquest battery and rests at 12.5. Car on, I rest at 14.0-.1. I plan on doing... Excessive Amperage 200 amp Alternator Big 3 And a bettery for the rear (Possibly Deka intimidator 9A31) My question is on batteries... I don't want to spend a load of money on batteries so I'm wondering if a stock battery and 1 rear would be okay. Another thing is.. If my stock battery rests differently then my extra battery would that be okay, or what part would I need t…

I need an amp to push 2 12 re se's. I want to give them at least 1k rms @ 1 ohm. I dont realy wanna spend more than 300 either. One amp ive been looking @ is the AQ1200D but im open to other ideas as ive never used anything from audioque. Thanks

Where do you guys get your wiring from? I was thinking of getting my RCAs from KnuKnoceptz (Krystal series). I've read about getting power wire from WeldingSupply.com. But this is from posts from a year or more ago. Just curious where everyone else goes.

and no active cuz yea no. need it need it need it or can someone liek build one for me or something?

i was thinking about buying mb quart 5 1/4 components and then buying a midbass from mb quart to add to it. can i do that? its going in a s10 so i would have the midbass in the door then the 5 1/4 in the dash and then tweet in the a piller i heard having a speaker in the dash like that isnt any good? any help on this?

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 was deciding between a kicker ZX2500, or a Rockford Fosgate t2000. please tell me which you like better or if you have any other suggestions. thanks

hey guys, just a quick question? whats a good battery to get for under the hood? i will be doing the big 3 to my new car i have a 18" btl fully loaded comming and a saz-2000d and a sax-100.4 on the way i have 2 kenetik 800's ill be droping in the back so whats a good battery i should get for the hood i got about $250 Thanks guys

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?

Hello SSA! I am selling my Type-R to a friend soon, and getting a Soundstream T5-10 from another friend. I just sold the amp I was using on the R so I could buy a new amp for it, but now this opportunity has presented itself. I am looking for an amp that can do 800-1000 watts at 1 ohm, for around $200. I've been looking around, but all the ones i've found have been Maxxsonics products, which never really do their rated power. Any suggestions from you guys would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Getting ready for a long road trip next week and had a question. Going to be running a large power inverter the whole time and I wanted to put a extra battery or 2 in. My question is I have a 1 year old blue top from my boat and plan on buying a new blue top to go also, would it be a bad idea to run them both together.

Well I have decided to get 2 12"Dcons and am gonna run them in about 3 and a 1/2 cubes at 31 hz. I am considering the following amps. What would your choice be?( a little head room is ok} 1. Arc Audio KS300.2 700x1@4ohms $350.00 2. Kicker zx750,1 750x1@2ohms $250.00 3. Audioque AQ750.1 750x1@1ohm $200.00 4. Sundown SAZ1000 1000x1@1ohm $260.00 refurbished 5. Hifonics Brz1200 900x1@2ohms $175.00 6. US Amps VLX 1DE 1000x1@1ohm $200.00

First of all I want to apologize for another which amp type question...there are a lot of them here but don't have the info I need. I'm going to be running 2 Ascendant Audio Avalance 12" subs (dual 2ohm - 800watts RMS each) and am wondering if a Sundown 2000d will be enough for them? I used to run these way back when they first came out with a US AMPS USA-2000 (2k x1 @ 2 ohms) and was happy with the setup but the class A/B of the amp was a huge strain on my already beefed up electrical system. Also, if there is another quality amp out there that you would recommend other than the Sundown let me know. I've been out of the game for a long time! Thanks!

What size/thickness copper pipe is used to make copper lugs/ring terminals?

Hi I have (2) hifonics brz1200 each on its own DD 2512c (D2) @ 1ohm I want around 1/3 more power as i think the subs can handle it What do you think about bridging those two amps? What kind of ohm load would i see? What would be the power benefits? What would be the dangers? If the risk is too high to try then I wont, because these amps are pretty much sold

Hi guys I hope all is good. Years ago we all had capacitors in our cars ( 1990's ) and later we went to the Batcaps. Why did we stop using them?? Did batteries kill them off are what? Are do people still use them and I just didn't see them?

Ok I got some new Knu Konceptz battery terminals with 4g outputs and I'm assuming I will need to cut the stock terminal out. So soldering the wires will be the best option right? Now I know with smaller wires you usually just twist them together and then solder but thats not really feasible with 4g, or is it? If anyone has tips on doing this it would be greatly appreciated. This is the terminal I will be using.

Ok, a guy at my trade school let his cousin use his JL A1400 amp, suposedly the cousin sprayed WD40 in the ground connection, why i do not know, and now he says the protect light comes on, i kow hes not the smartest fella and might be hooking it up wrong since he has it back now, he brought it to trade school looked at it, it was fine so he brought it back and it worked, then protect went on again, now hes getting his cousin to buy him a new amp, and he wants to get rid of this one, he brought it for me to look at but neither me nor my teacher can find anything wrong with it, and he wants to sell it for $75, what do yall think?

When I installed my Massive P1000.1 amp, I also got a 2 gauge Amp Kit that came with a 80A fuse. I just read the Massive's owners manual, it recomends a 60A fuse. Does using a 80A over a 60A make any difference? When I had my system running, I had the amp powering a SI Mag @ 1 ohm (880W).

RE does not sell the 12.1 anymore, I am wondering if they can repair a damaged one. I have a friend who has one that needs minor repairs. Anybody know?
