Yeah, i know that lol. I'll go try that....

Where is an ideal grounding spot? Just double checking.....

Ok

I don't have any other 2chan amps atm, but i have a sub and a mono amp for it, should i hook those up and listen? And i'm not running any other amps off the power/ground

bump?

Hooked up the RCAs to different output, still there UNhooked them, the hiss is still there...... edit: grounding out meaning that the + is touching any metal? They aren't.

And my amp isn't mounted to anything yet, it's sitting on my seat

Nah it doesn't change with revving....and yeah i have my power and RCAs run on different sides of the car.

First off, I hooked up the power wire and ground wrong. Power wire in the ground slot, ground in power slot (yeah i fail hardcore). I had the speakers wires hooked up and the RCAs, and remote wire. Not sure if this caused the problem, but definitely a good possiblity i believe There's a hiss coming from my speakers when i have the volume all the way down, and i can faintly hear distortion when the speakers are playing. I regrounded the HU (a 9887), checked the ground on the amp, they're fine. I switched RCAs and the hiss/distortion was still there. I had some cheap RCAs that have a 1/8" jack on the other side, so i took those and hooked them up and hooked my Ipod directly to it, and the hiss/distiortion got worse ( cheap RCAs i assuming).....hooked the RCAs that go to the HU back up and the hiss/distortion went back to how it had been. I hooked up other speakers and the hiss distortion was there also. I have ID CTX65cs comps btw.......I'm not sure what else to troubleshoot Unless i just damaged the amp.....

Good to see progress!!! this thing should be quite the BEAST

God that's worst than anything i've seen.....and i was desperate enough to use a home theater sub, but never enough to use a watercooler LOL!!!!

what is it going in? And is it ported?

Just think of all the noobs that would be like, "Oh my gawd, that bish is sooo loud!! WHAT?!?!? One Funky Pup does that?!?! DAYUUUUMMMM!! I gots to get me like ten a those!"

Sweet! Haha i actually asked that in the post above my last one lol.

Progress I just cut them off. Still not sure how to seal them off though....

I like this idea

I think the Q is what you really want That or the Havoc or ICON lol. It's up to you, no matter matter what you'll be getting an amazing sub

i think so. I'm working on some more MDF rings....lost the first ones What should i use to mount the speaker + MDF rings to the door? just screws, or is there a better way? edit: could i use the butyl rope to seal of where the MDF ring mounts to the door? http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=28020

I went with the more expensive one. It's a minor price difference isn't it?

You have to predrill every hole a screw goes into, or else the MDF cracks.....I've been there

Ooooooh this is enticing

I would do that, but i'm biased against hifonics and don't know anything about Clarion amps...sorry

Ya I don't see a way around it, but I've never really dealt with door speaker stuff before. the problem with cutting it is that i'll lose two of the three places that the door panel screws into the the door.

Hey, I ran into a little problem putting in my door speakers. They're going in a 1999 honda Civic 4dr. It's hard to explain, but i has pics! Anyways, with this honda the speaker doesn't mount directly to the door, but to the door panel....nvm just ckech the pics out: As you can see, the holes where the door panel screws in is blocking how i would otherwise mount the speaker to the door and bring out of the door with MDF rings (need to come out about an 1"). Any suggestions? It seems like I'd have to cut off two of the three mounting place for screws to fit the speaker, but i'm hesitant to do that lol

just like 18 awg ro something. doesn't need to be that big. and Rob? they both come with fleks wire lol
