the gain was set so it would read 63 volts when it plays a 50 hz note. but the "cutting off" still continued.

it's fine with the bass knob turned all the way up on volume level 10. but when you turn it up to 20 it'll start playing a bass line for maybe 2-5 seconds and then it immediately cuts off and there is no bass at all. this period of no bass lasts for maybe 5-8 seconds then plays a bass line again and repeat. EDIT: the bass cuts off. like no more low bass or anything coming from my sub

like its playing a bassline then its absolutely no bass at all within a split second of time

HU is an alpine cda 9874 -hpf on hu is set to 80 alpine m2000 i got my buddy who won VA states last year to help me tune it. it's set up exactly how it should be to play "air forces" by young jeezy but it clips off...

alpine m2000 brand new

i did read it and it didn't work. i mean i guess you can turn the gain down so much to where you cant even get real loud anymore

i would like any other suggestions on getting rid of my amp's clipping problem

so mostly everyone knows about clipping, when the music gets turned up and it hits a bass note, starts to play it then quickly drops off. well i've been having this problem ever since i got my new setup and i've read the how to set the gain of an amp thread, done it. no change and i've tested the impedance of my vioce coils and they're correct, dual 1s i've tested the ohms on the output of my amp and it's reading 2 flat which is what it's supposed to be i've re wired my sub to the amp and checked my rca's but it still clips when it gets turned up. any other suggestions, please?

Alpine MRP-M2000 Mono Subwoofer Amplifier for your sub amp at 2 ohm / 2000 rms

mount forward

yeah i already like alpine amps since i had an m500 with my last setup, i feel they put out good power and efficenecy

thanks for the imput on fatmat. after hearing this i'm not going to use that for my sound proofer. i'll furthermore do my homework on a different kind and also check out second skin.

alright guys, just got a little more serious in the car audio game. i'm just 16 and this is my 2nd setup. vehicle: 2004 jeep liberty columbia edition 3.7 v6 goal start working on a spl setup while still being able to have functional daily use. setup alpine cde 9874 pioneer DEQ 9200 EQ all 0/1 big 3 alpine 6.5 type r components alpine f-300 pac lc-1 bass knob stinger voltmeter blue led's some interstate extra battery. upgrade soon! alpine m2000 fi btl 12, dual 1, cooling, hiXM coil, daily, heat ring, universal, red dustcap custom box i made with 2.69 net cubes tuned to 36 hz side view of my ride partially built box and amp here are a few pics of the box/sub future planned upgrades: dc alt 200+ amps xs power battery fatmat of entire vehicle. i pay for all of this myself and i do everything i can with the funds i've got. please reply with suggestions or comments peyton

get it! that's a deal

wouldn't happen to know the DC lvl5 recommended specs for ported enclosure? Anyone know the displacements of the two different subs? 3.5 cubes for like only daily, but 5 cubes for spl

the smd is like a little bit chunkier btl. im kinda leaning toward the dc and the saz 3500, if you wired it at 1 or less ohm's it'd be reallll loud and low.

are you planning on competing?

soooo good. i do believe you exceeded your goals, by far

haha about the chicks. that thing thumps man.

500's for 1500 watts at 2... you can get an alpine m2000 for 420 brand new

hah maybe if i get really bored, i have trouble keeping up with my internet site as it is. ex: facebook, here, and thecomeupbmx.net

uhhh yeah me too. im 16 though thanks for the info, guess i need to do my homework more thoroughly hah

i put it in the back. this is my old setup. slid in perfectly beside it. and this one is the new box/amp while i was building it yesterday, just barely enough room to squeeze it in the batter is in the same place just behind the box

been thinkin about the same thing. but all the ones they have on there ebay store are for 2.8 Liters and i've got a 3.7 so i'd have to further contact them to see if they make them for my size motor or go with another company
