Head unit is a DEH-8600mp, but I'm thinking about getting a DEH-80PRS. Both the same really as far as the "system" goes. What I was thinking with the 2 separate amps is that setting each gain for each set of speakers would be much better. A lot of the equipment is older, but the mids and...

I currently have Alpine SPR-10TW 150rms 4ohm tweeters and Audiobahn 6.5" AMD60H 300rms 3ohm midbass. They are wired to an Audiobahn 2 channel A8002T amp 200w x2 @4ohm or 400w x2 @2ohm. off one set of RCAs from the deck. I use the deck crossover. Would I be better off using 2 separate amps and...

Well I read Pioneer decks blow a small pico fuse on the RCA grounds so I just ran a wire to ground them and it went away.

I have 2 amps. 1 on the front and 1 on a woofer. My door speakers were getting old after 9 years so I bought new 6.5's and changed them out. That day I played with the gain a little, but barely touched it. Next day my door tweeters were making a screeching sound to the music. I searched a read...

I took out the circuit breaker today and put in a fuse. The breaker was in pretty bad shape and I could not get it to trip. Also a slightly melted area of the plastic. Pretty sure this was the problem. I'll give it a good testing tomorrow : ) I think I should also replace the alt and engine...

I have the type of circuit breaker that needs reset if it trips. Similar to this: http://cardiscountstereos.com/Images_For_Catalog/CB250A.jpg And it has never tripped. Would you still replace it with a fuse? Not a big deal to do it.

Where would I check the voltage at? Battery, amp? And what should it be 12+, 14+? Thanks. Liberace, I had to look it up. LOL The trunk is never really seen, but I do like chrome.

OK this has to do with my amps shutting down and going into protection. The thing that might make this different than the others is that both of my amps shut down at exactly the same time. I have a 2000 Beetle with 2 Audiobahn amps. A A8002T for the front and a A8000T for the subs. The "front"...
