Under the hood is absolutely an option. I actually have two battery trays under the hood from the factory, so all I would need to do is run some additional 0 gauge wiring. My thoughts were I wouldn't gain much benefit from an additional battery unless it was closer to the amps than the current...

I recently installed a Odyssey PC1500 which seems to be a great battery. It performs far better than my Kinetik 1800 ever did but I'm still looking to get some power closer to the amps to stabilize things. The problem is I don't have a lot of room near the amps that are behind the back seat in...

I'm using a Pre-Amp EQ with a 8v line driver. I'd imagine at times it will put out the entire 8 volts. This being said, Kylebechtold is probably right, checking with MB is the only way to guarantee the safety of the amp if no one else has actually tried it.

Hey guys. I was wondering if the MB Quart DSC4125 can take a 8 volt input voltage? I did some searching on the forums but didn't come up with anything. I did find that the "Variable Input Level Control" is 0.2 - 6.0v in the MB Quart manual. Is that the number I'm looking for? And if it is, if it...

I did a little more research and some testing with a DMM. Turns out the MB Quart Tweeter is 6 ohms and woofer is 3.5 ohms. The Kicker on the otherhand, is a 4 ohm tweeter and woofer is 3.5 ohms. From what I've read, while the woofers would be interchangeable with either crossover the tweeters...

Hey guys. It's been quite some time since I've changed anything in my system so I need some advice. I understand the concept of passive crossovers and how they work pretty well, but do not understand the components of them and what makes a good crossover. Previously I had a MB Quart P-Series...

I picked up a component set from a member yesterday. Thank you all for your offers.

I'm interested. I have a day of searching, maybe two at the most. But so far there is nothing on Ebay or here I'm interested in more.

Hey guys. I have a set of MB Quart 5.25" P-Series components in the back of my truck and the mids don't seem to be holding up to well, after years of use. All I really need is a new set of mids but will consider a whole new component setup at the right price. My cap out price on a set of mids...

I have a Crossfire VR404 which is their 4x50 watt amp. When I turn the vehicle on the green LED lights up stays lit for around 5 seconds or so and then it starts turning off and back on every second or so (Mind you this amp has no protect mode). If the head unit is playing music while this is...

Well I thought I was smart. I thought I was real smart. But over time apparently the truck was smarter. It has learned to adapt to the changes I made to the vehicles power and ground wiring and is now consistently reducing to 12.9 volts as it used to. I guess Missing Link Audio's unit is the...

I agree 100% If you do decide to take on the endeavor, however, all you need to do is locate your alternator to battery power wire, your negative battery terminal to chassis ground wire, and your block to chassis ground wire. You duplicate each of those wires with 0 gauge wiring and replace...

The battery is not supposed to gas. The tech guy there said you would lose checmicals that are part of the make-up of the battery you would never get back. Basically what he said is the adhesive on the sticker that holds it to the battery turns to a gas when it heats up. The new stickers use a...

If you have the problem mail them and they will send you a new sticker. Or put a little vent hole with an exacto knife like I did

Looks great. Good luck with the install. Gotta love a bunch of new stuff. One thing though, make sure you ground that head unit well though. Mine has caused ground loop issues through the factory harness and even other grounds. I may have to go to the amps myself. Depends on your vehicle I'm...
