    80PRS busted out of the box?

    The first 80prs I installed was brand new as well. Hooked it up setup everything and was quite happy. Then a day later went through all the different inputs and usb, sd card and when I loaded a cd it loaded it half way and spun with the disk half way out...scratched up a rare disk that isn't...

    Bass knob questions

    What he means by "it stops getting louder" is you play music you normally listen to then turn your volume on the hu up to about 3/4 of the way then turn the gain up till it stops getting louder.

    pwx6 or punch pro 6.5?

    I didn't get either one yet. I bought a set of peerless sls 6.5's from a member here that was local to me to use for now while I decide. Been researching and learning more for now. Understanding more of what a midrange speaker actually does. Not sure if I wanna keep the peerless and find a...

    80prs usb indexing question

    Does anybody know how to reset the usb index? I loaded a different usb than I usually use and now when I put back my original usb the folders from the other usb drive are still shown and instead of loading instantly it always says format read and takes a while to load music. Can't seem to find...

    setting up 4 channel amp to run active.

    Hi what would be a good starting point to set my up amp up to run active? I have a 80prs and a 4 channel amp. What would be the best crossover point to set the amp to so that I don't blow my tweets? Never did run an active setup before. I currently set my front channel to high pass and my rear...

    80prs not that loud?

    I love the sq I'm getting now with this Hu. Just seems like you need to get up in the volume to get it cranking. Seen a few other people re iew it saying the same thing. Things start to come a live in the 20+ volume lvls. Never did use the gain as a volume knob though.

    80prs not that loud?

    I have a nest tower 5000d supposed to be 3200 at 1ohm at 14v. But seen someone clamp it at 12v and got just under 2000w. I used the 50hz test tone from mtx.com/testtones. I listen to mostly reggae, dancehall, Hawaiian music and some hip hop. I set the gains using the rated power and then did it...

    80prs not that loud?

    Ok. Checked using a multi meter and was pretty much right there. Without loudness on or using bass boost on my amp doesn't get as loud as my 147bt. Should be OK to set the bass on the Hu to +6? Also 6db is the most this Hu can go to on the sub I can't set it to flat

    pwx6 or punch pro 6.5?

    Been looking at both these speakers. Which would you prefer for an active setup? Gonna treat my doors before I get either one. Looking forward clear but can get loud. Curently running alpine 6.5 type s. Or any other recommendations for mids around the same price point? I have focal tn52...

    80prs not that loud?

    Sub bass. I took it to the shop because something was wrong with the Hu. It wouldn't load cds. Their technician adjusted the eq for me. It sounds really clear even at high levels but still seems like I have to turn the volume up to 40+ to really get it bumping. He set the sub to -3 lvl at -12db...

    80prs not that loud?

    Hi I just installed an 80prs yesterday. I switched out a alpine 147bt. At first the bass was really loud on the sub channel so turned down my gains. After tuning I notice that it doesn't hit as hard as my 147bt. Turned down the gains a little because of the 5v pre out vs 4v. Anything I should...

    crossover for focal tn52

    I just received a pair of focal tn52 tweeters. What would be a good set of passive crossovers for them? Plan on pairing them with a set of 6.5 cresendo pro audio mids.
