so I have a 9300 and a 660 as of today, and i went to go plug in the new 660 to make sure everything was good and the plug was diff from the 9300 which pissed me off. It was basicly the same but the 660 one was a tad larger and i didnt feel like hooking up a new harness just to test the new hu. anyone know if the 4 or 5 series are the same as the new 6? thanks! -aaron

Man ole Man... i love my new Memphis Mojo Amp... Its so prudy. Heres a pic of it, im gonna be running it at .5ohms so about 3kw. Here it Is.

just wondering how reliable pioneer HU's are at puting our rated power :ph34r: Ive got it installed in my 92 grand am. it runs for as much as $193 on yahoo shopping, but i bought it off some guy on FXN for 115 shipped. edit: i just read that its rated at 22 watts rmsX4. only the two rear speakers work and its pretty loud. wonder how loud it'd get with new speakers and an amp B) edit found 1 on ebay thats factory remanufactured for $129 starting bid and its not too bad of a head unit for a poor man like me

Rated Capacitance

I need a good head unit that plays mp3s any good suggestions?

Is this the Atomic amps you are considering buying? If so they look killer!

Hey guys i was recommend here by denim. Be patient i don't know much about stereos, i'm a motor guy. Here's my situation, my explorer has an xtant 3300x powering then entire stereo system. It burned out about 3 weeks ago, supposidly a shop is fixing it, but they say they are having trouble getting parts. I'm growing impatient because i have nothing at all, because i have a non powered eclipse head unit. I'd like to replace it with a xtant 603, but at the moment even a refurbished one is a little much for my budget. Could i get away with using a xtant 403 to power the whole thing? Pics of the stereo are on the second or third page of my cardomain in my sig. I have a do…

Hey guys, new to the forum. I'm working on a project right now, and I'm in need of some information on relays. From what I have seen, though i may be wrong, a generic relay that can just handle, say, .3-2v, is not suitable for line level audio because of signal degredation. Is this true, and if so, are there any relays out there that can handle line level audio without perceptable loss in quality? What I'm looking to set up is an add-on to my OnStar interface. I want to set up a 6-channel relay interface box with a two-channel input from the OnStar interface and a 6-channel input from my headunit, then 6-channel output going to the amps. Normally, it would come from the …

specificly the a3000db, here, and the a520-2hp, here...... what can anyone tell me about them? how are their amps in general? the reason i am asking is becuz a install i am about to start might include these two amps, if they are atleast capable of their rated power and good performers... also, if u can list amps in the same power range, the mono amp needs to be either 1/2 ohm or 2 ohm stable(the subs are dvc 2ohm) for around the same price...plz list....i need them to be a "matching" pair thanks all wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Well guys---I read alot of forums and it looks as though ALOT of people are misinformed about the "basics" of car audio----I need your help----tell me a topic in which we can all give our input and see if we can come to learn more-----I personally am sick of seeing these "which sub or which amp" topics----it is called "learn then deside for yourself". I will talk in depth about all of the topics you want but I need a start----you guys from FXN.net know me pretty well to know I can talk for days about car audio. for the guys that don't know me---- http://www.fordexplorer.net/viewforum.php?f=10 Alot of the stickys are mine. Read and enjoy. Live and LEARN, Dave

Just want to wire a friends two under-dash neon's and one under the back seat to a single toggle switch mounted on the dash. Battery ---> power wire (16ga) ---> inline fuse (5amp) ---> more power wire ---> 12v power on switch Acc on on switch ---> neon x3 (splicing all together to run off the single switch) Ground switch and tube. Right? Wrong? Your feet smell? Perhaps just using the cigarette lighter in the car. Cut the wires off the back of the lighter in the dash, cut the DC adapter off of the neon, wires from lighter into switch ... ? Probably the easiest way if it works ... Thoughts and opinions. Going for simplicity. - Steve

Tracy, I saw some info in here the other day about the newer amp lines. I was hoping for a refresher and also wondering along the lines of AB power... 750X2 @ 1 or 4 Ohms or so, maybe 1500 @ 2Ohms. Basically I mant alot of controll, like one of the new lines seemed to offer. I am going to be powering 2 Brahmas (I needed a little more umph ). I am hoping to keep them in a foot each so power needs to be about 750-1100 or so per driver. I like the Cadence Z1500, or a pair of Z9000s. I am even kicking DEI around (2400D) but it is a D amp. I really want an AB. Also I was wondering if you might hit me some rough prices up. Thanks Bud, Seth

Someone is selling it for $400. I wanted to know what is anyones experience or info in regards to this amp. I was not able to find anythingthrough google or yahoo.

I just got my 12" H2 but I have spent to much funds lately. I still have to get my components and an amp for the components. I really wanted to get a 2500 amp but its not going to happen for now. So do you think I will be missing out a lot by getting a 1200 amp? I will be running it in a 1.5 cu ft sealed enclosure.

I am a panasonic fan so i want one of these HU's Interesting that they use a tripath cchip, i'm assuming they're the first

older 4 channel I have I might sell, trying to find all the specs on it help a brother out?

I have a buddy on another forum that has a KX 600.1 and it keeps going in and out of protection mode. The green light comes on for a while, then cycles back into protect, then green, then protect............. Any idea what the problem is? He let one of his friends mess with it one day and I guess they cranked the gains full tilt. He blew his L7. He took it out for a little while and hooked it up to another driver and it was working fine. When he put it back in his car after getting his new L7, it started doing all this. I think he's screwed, but maybe not. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Being a RF employee, I get a chance to beta test some of the units that we have created this year. Right now, I am currently testing the Power T15004: 125 W X 4 @ 4 Ohms RMS 250 W X 4 @ 2 Ohms RMS 375 W X 4 @ 1 Ohms RMS 500 W X 2 @ 4 Ohms Bridged RMS 750 W X 2 @ 2 Ohms Bridged RMS It is 1ohm stable! It is pushing out a lot more than the rated power though...for example: 125W x 4 @ 4 ohms RMS...it is doing 300W x 4 @ 4 ohms RMS!!!!!) The current draw isn't too bad either...(I only have the amp running on 1 channel though.) From what the engineers are telling me though, it is drawing about 200-300 amps at MAX POWER. Here's the kicker: The total RMS (all channels combined…

I bought my HU today for my 240. I decided on the Eclipse 8443. I intended to get the 8053 with BLA but I just bought the Viper 1200.1 for my Altima.

Hey guys, this is a question for Dave Edwards but I want everyone else to chime in too. I am considering going with an MTX 81000d or 1501 amp. The question at hand is, if i went with the MTX 81000d I'm gonna get a modded version. Since its modded would i have a higher chance of blowing the amp? Does anyone know anything about the 81000d? Now for the 1501amp... can u modd it to 1ohm? If I do.... what is the possiblity of me blowing that? Does anyone know the rating on the 1501 if u did drop it to 1ohms? And finally..... can the 81000d be runned daily? Has anyone had experiance with them? Help me out

Finally I am getting a Crossover for my system---$150 for a AudioControl 3XS---not bad. just thought I would share
