Its either that or spend 3 times that on maybe a 9887. I don't have a problem with spending the $95 to repair my older unit I just don't want to do it and regret it due to it failing again (within a short period of time). I know no one is going to be able to say "yes it will work for another few...

I'm having a similar problem with my 9813. I get error when trying to play a disc but when I get that error, nothing works. There is no sound through door speakers or subs and the deck becomes unresponsive. As I said in my other post, I can maybe get it to work 10% of the time. I am currently...

I have the problem found in the thread below. It is still intermittent. It work 1 out of every 10 times. http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=444653 I've contacted Alpine and I can send it in for $95 and they will try to repair it if possible and give a 90 warranty. My question is...

As far as the X-over, I use both. I set the amp for more of a fail safe. The headunit is what I use to fine tune. Easier to get to and adjust. This way if one of them fail, you have a back up.

Update. I got it to work for about an hour. Does anyone have an idea of why it would work perfectly sometimes but not output anything, play disc or change any settings the next?

For some reason I can not get to the SMD forums at home. I can get to http://www.smdmedia.net but can't get to the forum. I have a cable modem with a Linksys WRT-54G v.5 and the latest firmware. I can not access this 1 site with either my desktop (xp, Ethernet), Laptop (XP, wireless), Laptop...

I have a 9813 and it has worked flawlessly until now. I got it back in June of '03. I got in my car the other day and started it and the deck would not play the disc. The unit powered up fine but said Error. I tried to eject the cd and the face folded down but would not eject. Then I could not...

I have a box that I've actually been using for a while now that I got when I bought my subs. I bought it from car audio dealer, not a big box store like Best Buy. Its prefab for me as in I didn't build it but the installer said it was built to spec from TREO. I am trying to get the specs and...

I am still running 2 12" SSi's. I have had them since '05.

I got past the alarm but I can not start the car. I am jumping it off and I get power it just won't start. Have I missed something?

I have been out of town for over a week and during my trip, I've had a relative keeping a check on my house/ car. My car battery is dead. I have a Viper 791 with a back up battery for the brain (I think its a 520T). What should I expect? From what I have read, the alarm will probably go off when...

I hear ya. I originally had 3 CompVr 12" sealed on that directed 1500D then about a year ago a switched to the Treo SSi 12"s ported. It sounded better and was louder of course. I had planned on doing electrical upgrades and getting the treos some more power, right around what you recommended...

Yes. I have 2 SSi 12.44. I was going to get the Treo 750.1 but they were out of stock and after thinking about the electrical upgrades I would need for that amp I decided that I would settle (power wise). When I orignally got the treos I had planned on getting a bigger amp down the road. I plan...

Just last week, my Directed 1500D became a paperweight so I was in the market for a new amp for my Treo SSi's. I went to my local shop which is the only place i deal with and picked up a Planet Audio BB1250.1. Well got it installed and vs. the Directed, it sounds so much cleaner and you can tell...

I have the Viper 791XV with the DEI 508D Proximity Sensor and tint. The perimeter sensor should work but I didn't set mine up for it at all. It will get on your nerves especially since it pages you. While I was tweaking it, it would go off if something passed beside it. At the same time, it will...
