okay so my gf has these cheap kenwood speakers and the dust cap is starting to come unglued from the surround. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_43777_Kenwood-KFC-W12PS.html what can i use to get them to stick back together well. the sub still works obviously but there is an annoying sound i'd like to fix. thanks!! edit: its only about a 1-2 inch part that is coming up from the surround so nothing too crazy lol

jeeze i was still in diapers lol

heat means energy lost. check all connections

i know its not a big thing on here but i did get my shit set by a dd1 so the gains are set at that +15 sw level so i know when i hit that volume 25/35 to stop and ill be at the point where the dd1 said there was distortion. i know i know dd1 lets all start a riot lol. thats why i was hoping for a 2 ch with a knob, so i can have the knob down but turn the volume up on the deck (increasing the bass) then i'll use the knob to bring the volume to where it sounds good. that rockford amp doesnt have a gain control knob, it only has the PEQ which is a bass booster, which is the exact opposite of what im looking for lol. my main concern is that i thought in subwoofers the signal only came from one of the two rca cables. am i wrong? so in SW mode on the deck, if its only putting out power through (lets say the left) rca cable, when i daisy chain the amps, the right speakers will not work. do you get what im saying?

may run into a problem when the time comes to install. when i turn on the preouts to rear speakers (disabling the subwoofer controlls) the sw level option dissapears and i loose that function. im assuming because the sw level isnt at +15 (on the deck) that the voltage is cut or something). i hope when in preout sw mode that both channels will be active and give a full range signal and not only when on rear mode. if that is the case i guess its time for a new stereo with 2 outputs. then ill have to get another rca cable and ill look into the PAC to control the rca voltage.

kenwood kdc mp145. i called up kenwood and they confirmed it gave off a full range signal.

lol @ dd-1 comment

the signal is going to be coming out of the 1 rca output, i wont have any volume control separate from the subwoofer, if i turn up the volume on the deck, the sub will get louder and the speakers will get louder. however a certain song might be really loud and i would want to turn down the speakers, but i would be turning the subs down as well. if i lower the subwoofer level (on the deck) , it will lower the volume in the whole car because its dropping the voltage out thru the rca's. basically i'd like to control how loud the speakers will go independently of the subwoofer.

i know this sounds like a newbie question but i wanted to get the right answer. okay, so i have a rf t1000-1bd. it says that the amp is wired in parallel inside the amp. does this mean i can put a wire from each terminal on my woofer to each one of the 4 outputs and it will automatically take my dual 2 down to a 1 ohm load internally?. basically i wanna bump up the wire size going to my woofer because im used to the jumper and twist technique, but if i can get a fatter 10 gauge wire i'd like to do that. so basically instead of me doing the parallel wiring and only 2 wires coming from my sub, i'll have 2 wires from each voice coil, 4 wires going to my amp and the amp will put out power at 1 ohm? can anyone confirm that this technique will work and i will get the 1 ohm load?

okay i posted on the question on the rockford fosgate fb page and they said it will not filter the signal at all. now all i need is a decent budget 2 ch amp that will put out ~50-100rms @ 2ohm x 2. level/gain knob would be nice because i cant get a knob for my rockford, all they have is the PEQ which is a bass boost knob, not a gain knob which seems really dumb to me. any suggestions for that 2 ch amp would be greatly appreciated!

wow thats my dads age. i could only imagine... RIP

cant find the owners man for the amp :/ imma look online

t1000-1bd. the all black one. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_17555_Rockford-Fosgate-Power-T1000-1bd-New-Black-Box.html im gonna crack the manual open and read it. im thinking like <200 on the 2 ch but im a tight budget so cheaper will work if the quality is decent.

another question: assuming all filters are clear on my stereo, will the preamp outputs off my rockford sub amp give a full range signal or whats been filtered after the LPF??

ive recently upgraded my subs and now i cant hear anything when im full tilt. im going to delete the rear speakers and i was looking for a decent 2 ch amp for my front speakers. im curious to see if you guys have any suggestions for a budget amp that can do ~50-100 rms each @ 2 ohm. i had a few questions also. if the amp had lets say 1% THD would that be noticeable? also how important is the signal to noise ratio? would 80db be really bad? (these are extreme examples) another thing, if the amp is cea compliant does that mean their THD and signal to noise numbers must be true, or is it only hold true to rms ratings? thanks!

god bless america

wire could have gotten cut thru at the firewall. i'd check there fist

went to the xs site, entered in 2012 ford mustang and got this http://4xspower.com/bci_group/96R/

^ ive noticed that recently that alot of yg's stuff has a quick low low note in them. not adding to the list, but to show some of the examples im talking about: yg - million 28hz yg - im good 25hz yg - wobble 29hz alot of other songs in the low 30's too edit: im 4rm bompton hits at 31hz

whoops didnt see this, thanks !

i have all his zips i was just wondering what songs you guys like

what are some of your all time favorite songs to play/give demos to?

i love seeing all the people bashing him on his own facebook page lol

i have an fi sp4 15 that can take 3k rms. my amp does ~1400. its okay to crank my gain up because my woofer can thermally take all that power? need some expert advice
