Figured it out. Thanks.

so i called to see how much everything was gonna cost plus the 3yr warranty and they said they were all sold out but the website said they werent....anyways they said they should have some more in a couple of weeks,i knew that was gonna happen with them having that price on that x889....now i dont know if i should wait to see if they get more or if i should just pay the extra $50 that the closest other store has it at.....but then again the 8445 is around that same price so i dont know now,dammitt everytime i make a decision something happends....grrrrrr LOL

Starting yesterday my sub will play and then stop. I'm running 1 psi 15 inch platform 2 sub wired to 4 ohms on a hifonics zeus 3200 watt amp. The hifonics light on amp will still be illuminated but the light on the bass knob will fade until it's off completely. When I restart the car the sub sometimes will play and other times Not. All wires are secure. Any ideas?

Won a Concept Indash DVD Player with a 7-inch flip up screen! Recieving it in the mail next week. Any suggestions on a processor?

So I was just about to buy the AudioControl lc2i and I saw that it has "2 speaker-level inputs with 400 watts RMS power handling". I have 2 crescendo bc2000s and going to have 1 crescendo c1100.4. I won't be using them all at full output, but somewhere around 3.2k rms all together. Does that mean it can be hooked up to speakers that are getting up to 400 rms or does it mean that it can only support amps up to 400 rms. I looked at reviews to see if others have used with more power and they were all under 600 rms. I didn't see any other LOCs that support more power. Will the lc2i work? If it is that I can't use this one, are there any other LOCs I can? Thanks. http://www.cr…

These videos will show you why you need to have a proper electrical system backing your amps.

Anyone have this or have any opinions on it? http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_22937_Kenwood+eXcelon+KDC-X494.html what do you think? Not looking for anything too fancy... Just a basic cd player w/ aux+usb inputs, sub out, and 4v preamp outs....this looks like its decent for the $$

Anyone have any experience with this head unit? Looks nice and the features seem pretty good for a double din. Can be had for under 350 new and about 250 used. So has anyone tried this one out, or has anyone had problems with it? Would like to step up to a dvd head unit and this seems like a decent deal. Don't really want to spend too much (around 300 max) so that I can save up for some xcons. Also I could give a crap about ipods. I use either my zune or the pioneer cd-ub100 with a portable hard drive for music (which this deck has the plug in for it)

Is it ok to mount the amps on the sub enclosure?Why double post?

Hey guys, looking for a nice headunit for my 2005 Prius (don't judge) Looking to do a sub install soon enough as well. Any suggestons on a nice headunit? Budget around $150

Hey all, I was just wondering how nice this amp compares against something like a TRU amp? I can get this for probably around the same price as a t-4.65. Also, if anyone can throw out some other high end 4 channel amps that would be greatly appreciated. thanks :ph34r:

Right now I have a pioneer DEH-P7000BT and I can get a deal on a new pioneer AVH-P5000DVD. I like the one I have now and its features but I would like a tv but i dont wanna lose the features. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with that in dash tv and would suggest it. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

Undecided on which HU to get, i want touchscreen, iPod compatible(will get the steering wheel control as well), and while im at it with gps, bluetooth is not necessary. I was looking at these two an Eclipse and a Pioneer. The Eclipse has a much bigger screen and what not, but the faceplate is the one where it moves(i've heard these tend to break/become disfunctional really quick or is taht only for the slide out ones?). While the Pioneer has a slot for discs and does not need to slide/move at all. The Pioneer also looks more "cleaner/smoother". Im not sure lol, my birthday is coming up and i know i will get some money and will need to just put liek 3-400 to get a nice HU.…

Got 320 amp mechman now need advice on wiring and what type of lithium battery setup to get, wanting to run about 4-5k RMS total and hold voltage. I've read that I should run a regular lead battery with a lithium, never done a lithium setup before and need advice, all help appreciated really excited about this build!

I would like to compare it against a new PPI class d 4 channel to see if all the time they spent on it produced results or just junk. I can't find squat for user reviews of the vlx4150

Don't buy these TXA-6004s they are defectve amps that someone got ahold of. The heatsinks are too small and they have a bad thermistor causing them to overheat and die.

hey guys. i need some input on what kinetic battery to use in the trunk. i have a stock alternator and my setup will be pushing around 2500watts. i plan on using a yellowtop up front. so my question is how many watts should my kinetic in the trunk be? the power cell calculator on the site says i should use (2) 1400watt power cells. which will be costly to me. any cheaper solutions? do i really need that much? input please and thank you.

I'm looking at getting this head unit. Anyone with experience with it? I have owned a eXcelon X889. Loved it. Wish I never sold it. Would this be a nice choice or is there better for around the price of this one?

looking for people with recent experience with them, I am interested in the APA2160, fiarly sweet amp from their CES show car, but I am wondering why their prices are so low in many places??

So who has a new aq3500d.1 and how do you like it? i cant stop drooling over it and for the price i want it. Does it do rated or more? I just need some more power... welll.... not neeed but i sure want some hahaha

Is there an adapter so I can use the factory XM antenna in the 2009 Accord with an aftermarket headunit and it's XM module? I have the Pioneer AVH-P4200DVD head unit and am getting http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PU...ite/GEX-P920XM. I just want to avoid having to run a new antenna.

For my birthday, my girlfriend bought me a brand spanking new Eclipse 5425 HU. I chose to install it because I was ripping everything out in order to lay down wiring for new speakers and amp. And I just really like doing that stuff myself. The problem is this... Sometimes the display and buttons don't light up and are inoperative. The stereo still plays, but you can only adjust the volume level and change stations. You cant insert or eject a cd, change any functions, or even tilt the screen. Other times every thing works just fine and dandy like it should. There doesn't seem to be any patern to when it does this. I have triple checked my wiring and made sure th…

I was wondering if the IA20.1 is underrated? Looking to get one to power my DD9515 d2 subwoofer. Also, does anyone have one they would like to sell?

So working for Wal-Mart doesnt exactly leave you with a whole lot of money to spend on quality products, espicially when you are the only one working with a wife and kid. So anyways, I've been without a stereo in my truck for almost 2 years until my birthday back in April. My father-in-law got me a Boss cd player and its already starting to crap out. It wasnt my choice but I wasnt picky when I got it. That was a major step down from my Eclipse CD4000 and I loved that thing. I've very tempted to get another Eclipse and I have been eyeing the CD3200. I had good luck with Eclipse and wouldnt mind going back to it. My local shop has also got me interested in the Kenwoo…

anybody have any experience with this amp? i'm thinking about getting one off of ebay to power my 6.5"s and tweeters. all comments about it are welcome, good or bad. recomendations are welcome too!
