    suggestions i need a tight clean sub

    I use a Diamond D9 12 inch sub in a 1.5 CF sealed enclosure in my Envoy. The bass is very tight and not boomy. I purchased new for $250. I am using with a Diamond D7401 800RMS amp. I highly recommend if this is something in your budget.

    Running Power, RCA and Speakers Side by Side

    I haven't run them yet. I want to make sure I don't have to re-run cabling. Thanks for the remarks. It will be easier to run them together rather than separately.

    Running Power, RCA and Speakers Side by Side

    Any issues with this concept? I have my amps in the rear of my SUV and all the wires will obviously go to the front. Is it worth trying re-route some of these differently? Thanks

    distribution vs. T block

    Is there a difference between these two? Stinger makes T blocks and distribution blocks. Can you just use a T block for power and ground cables or do you need to use a distribution block for power and a T for grounding only?

    Wiring a mono and multi channel amp

    What is the best way to wire two separate amps that will be located next to each other in my SUV. I assume a single power cable can be used to the battery? I assume I can use a distribution block? I have a 2X150 watt and a 1X800 watt amp. The 2 X 150 will be 4 ohm to the front speakers, and...
