    Wiring

    1999 Chevy suburban, wall of course, I’m not as far done as I probably made it seem with the setup explanation, I was explaining how it soon will be. Hoping to get it done on or before the first week of April. Going to finish the shell today or tomorrow, after putting the baffle in everything...

    Wiring

    Yeah so I don’t have to involve the chassis at all? It would just be the alt and head unit that’s grounded to the chassis.. If there’s a right way to do it with the setup I explained above just let me know lol. Thanks

    Wiring

    I got two taramps 8ks in the back ran on 1 limitless lithium 70aH. No front battery, all 1/0 ofc. Dual inputs for the taramps 8ks. So a total of 4 positives from amps to battery and 4 negatives from amplifier to battery. I’d rather ground amps to battery since this is a higher power application...

    Quick question. 4 positives from amps to bat, 4 negatives from amps to bat. How many negatives from bat to chassis?

    Quick question

    I’ve been setting gain with subs connected the whole time. Ive been doin it wrong then? I should set gain with my stereo a little less than max, bass knob on max, and then the gain goes up to the recommended output voltage. And I do all this without speaker wires connected? Correct?

    Looking for car amplifier technician or specialist

    Hi. I have a car audio amp that has some problems. A while ago I had a voltage spike of 18v+ from my alternator that killed my amp. The result was many mosfets blowing. About 10 I had it repaired by some techs in Florida and I have had it running for a week now. While I was driving a mosfet...

    Electrical issue

    After having 3 months of use my battery cranked very unusually with voltage and a LOT of popping noises charging voltage 14.8 resting voltage was 13.5 Lowest crank voltage I’ve seen was 12v  what would cause the crank voltage to skyrocket past 18v then all the way down to 0?? After this my...

    Rough enclosure design

    If it’s a 10” I’d tune it higher

    Quick question.

    I’m currently bolting in my sub to wood. Can my gasket touch the surround? As I bolt it in the gasket bends towards the surround and touches it. Is this okay or will that far down the surround be moving and have friction with the gasket?

    need suggestions on new sub.

    Bass not base. What do you mean by bass in the front? Bass acts differently than regular sound, so if you put a sub in the trunk it would not sound muffled. I recommend not buying an underseat sub. Just buy a 500 watt mono amp and hook it up to a simple sub in the trunk. 12, 15” - whatever u want

    Proper speaker wire size

    Teams. 5k rms. Will run 7k tho. 7mm terminals. 4 gauge is obviously too big and 8 gauge is just lacking. Mathematically the 8 gauge can just barely deliver it seems. I’m basically asking for where to find 6 gauge that’s not welding cable or something. I don’t know why I can’t seem to find it...

    Proper speaker wire size

    Probably won’t push more than 7000 Watts per sub. 2 dvc d1’s wired in series/parallel for 1 ohm. If each driver voltage is 114v then my 8 gauge wire is rated for 6840 watts. Where on earth can I find 6 gauge ofc that’s rated more than 60 amps at 20ft?

    Port length calculation

    Hey. I’m using winsid 0.7 to determine my box dimensions and it says my port length should be 29.4 inches. So I doubled check with 3 websites and two say 25.47” , while one agrees with winisd and says 29.4” what do you guys use to accurately calculate this? EDIT On winisd it does not let me...
