    Why no new high end Pioneer HUs for 2007?

    Was hoping to get something comparible to the 7800 or 9800 only with direct Ipod connection. Why are the Pioneers freshened only up to the 6900 level?

    why are my back speakers whining but not the fronts?

    Just hooked up a Kicker ZX700.5 and I'm getting alternator whine through the back speakers only. When I disconnect the rear RCA's from the amp the whining goes away but so does sound too of course. If I disconnect the RCA's for the rear at the HU I still get the whining. I've regrounded the...

    Sat. ant. wire down same side as amp power wire?

    Will I have noise problems if I run my satellite antenna wire down the pass. side of the the car with my 4 ga. amp power wire? My Sirius S50 will be mounted on the passenger side of my center console so I just wanted a straight shot with the ant. wire.

    Will a sub sound like crap when not in box?

    I was testing my Infinity Kappa 10" out in the open before mounting it in the box and it sounded like crap almost like it was blown. It seemed kind of quiet too. My gains are adjusted on my amp. Will it sound right once its mounted in the box? I'm using the non-fading/sub output on my...

    Best way to wire my door speakers?

    I'm installing Infinity Kappa 6.5 in. componets in my doors of my F-150 reg cab. Can I tie into the speaker wire behind the HU or should I just run new wire from the amp through the doors to the speakers? It seems like a PITA to run the wire through the doors. Will 18 gauge suffice for the...

    speaker wire broke off tweeter - can I solder it?

    The wire broke off right at the base(post) of the tweeter on my Infinity Kappa 6.5 components. I would rather try and fix it myself than wait 2 weeks sending it to soundomain.com. Will soldering it cause any loss in SQ? Thanks.

    Will my Premier HU control a Pioneer cd changer?

    I have the Premier DEH-P840MP and I want to know if it will control the Pioneer CDX-P680 changer. I know the plug for the main harness on the back of my HU is different than the Pioneer 8400. The bus should be the same though, shouldn't it? I want to be able to use the disc naming and all the...

    Best 10" 200 RMS watt sub?

    My amp will be putting out 200 RMS to each sub. I am thinking of the Infinity reference because they are 2/$99 at Crutchfield. Any other suggestions under $300/pair? Thanks.

    Is 40 watts enough for Infinity reference componets?

    The 605cs are a little over $100 online so I want to snatch a set. The amp I want to go with is the Kicker 550.3. 40x2 with a 200 watt sub channel. The reference componets have an RMS rating of 2-90 watts(Crutchfield book). I will run the componets at 40x2 @ 4 ohms and the sub channel at...
