Make room for it! smash something in

This is probably the truest thing when it cones to car audio in general. It's like picking an engine before you even know what car you're going to get.

It's telling you DURAN C.D.'S ARE FUCKING OUTDATED! USE ME WITH A IPOD/ZUNE ASS!

Xanax? lol Was on that about 8 years ago. I don't like pills and I see medicine as an excuse to be lazy and take care of yourself. Marijuana? haha, Prop 19!

.5 OHMS IS NOT SUPPORTED 100% WHY WON'T ANYONE LISTEN! FUCK You realize you're pulling huge amounts of current! Your electrical is not big enough to support .5 ohms. If you look at a data sheet you can see that as a transistor gets hot it has a lower current rating... running an amp at a lower impedance increases the current passing through the transistors, heating them up, and progressively lowering their ability to handle the current until something fails. Dropping an amp to 1/2 ohm doubles the output current (up until the amp just can't put out more at least) and makes everything less efficient so the power supply in turn draws more current, often times inducing more voltage drop which calls for MORE current to maintain the same output level - again, turning into a cycle if it continues until something fails. Many amps are robust enough to handle this pretty well - but the more you push the amp and the more clipping that goes on you get closer to realizing the impedance chart I posted above for a square wave which can drop down VERY low. That sort of thing can destroy even a very robust amplifier design when you are already running at 1/2 or less of the rated impedance load. It all started with SPL competition... where you play ONE sine wave at a known impedance so you can get away with a really low nominal load. That is all well and good, but music is not a single sine wave - you do not know what the impedance curve can do and it CAN drop below the nominal load, unlike "common knowledge" on the forums may tell you.

In highschool we did Yoga for a couple weeks, it's intense!

Added all of ya, MasterLFTN doesn't work however.

Fixed.

Same as the Xbox thread... Just cooler than the Xbox Mine is ADRNLN_Rush Just so we don't have to scroll through the thread to find names i'm going to list them here. Network Names Duran - Audioaholic7 Julian - Adrnln_Rush Mark LaFountain - AirLFTN Hardrock2401 - ficaraudio24 Chainsaw - Mr_Chainsaw87

Does the amplifier run down to 1 ohm in the first? and are you sure you got dual 2's and not dual 1's? if they are indeed dual 1's you would be wiring down to .5 ohm. The amplifier only accepts 4 gauge wire... for a 2,000 amplifier you would expect to get 1/0.. I would consider getting a reducer. This will allow more current to your amplifier.

I have a Garmin 205w and i love it, it's around 100 USD

BUT! It'll only make the enclosure slightly, you will need 1 Lb of Polyfill per Ft^3. You won't get much back.

I typed out this whole long explanation, and it didn't post sad.

Sean, I just LOL'd Literally.

Yes it should, you'll have more of a reserve to take from instead of your battery being discharged, then your alternator filling it back up. What alternator do you have in your car? Stock? HO? You could add a MLV or a VCM to keep your voltage higher.

See if Scott can Recone it...

On my old Iphone 3g my old Alpine deck would sometimes start to buzz, i just got a longer USB cord and put it further away from my HU and that solved the problem. Well, its not USB, it plugs ino the back of the headunit. Whatever the connection is, i don't know. Oh you have a proprietary end of the plug, i see.

Is it through 3.5mm headphone jack? Then that's your problem! The cause of this buzzing has to do with GSM's "time division" nature. With GSM the RF transmitter is turned on/off at a fast rate, and that 'pulsing' is often picked up by nearby devices that don't have good RF shielding. In the case of GSM the pulse rate is 217 Hz, which can be easily heard." Check your grounds and try turning your phone onto Airplane mode.

Hey Variana, Please don't bump your threads constantly. Why don't you just use aeroports again? Nothin' wrong with them, I've always seen in trucks subs forward port up.

I was wondering what happened to all the Mach5 woofers!

if you're ripping into itunes make sure you go to Edit > Click General tab, then Click Import Settings > Under Settings use the drop down menu and select custom> On the drop down box under Stereo Bit rate it should say numbers from 64-320, for the most sound quality select 320. It'll take up more space but you'll never hear the difference, Usually cd's are 256.
