Hey guys, I'm a novice level audio guy, so I was hoping to get some input on my system, maybe ways to get more power or optimize performance. Anyway, here's my setup in my 2007 Altima. Head unit: Pioneer DEH-P5000UB Sub Amp (bridged): Cadence TXA3002 - 4 Ohm RMS Power: 2 x 150 Watts @ 13.8...

I'm deciding b/w Kenwood Excelon dnx 8120 Eclipse AVN6620 Alpine IVA-W505 Any compelling reasons to go one way?

Okay thanks for the suggestions. Before I go, I might try that 9v battery test to test the sub. Can anyone tell me exactly how I go about doing that? Do I wire the sub as if I was hooking it up to the amp, but hook it up to the batt instead? Thanks

actually it's just one sub. I have the Cadence TXA 3002 amp. I have it wired for 4 ohms. If my amp turns on (LED light comes on) can I rule out a remote wire, battery wire, and ground wire issue?

Yea, I didn't unhook any of the stock speakers so they are all playing music. The amp for the comps is all hooked up power wise, it's just not going to any speakers. Ugh...I'm stumped. Thanks for trying to help man...I might have to take it in somewhere. Is there a way to check if the sub is...

Yea I have the dual-2 ohm type r. So, I wired the sub to itself with the provided jumper cable, following the instructions. I took it right out of the box today...i would be really surprised if it was bad equipment. Could it be related to the fact that I have two amps running and my amp for the...

Yea...I took the sub out of the box and hooked it up directly to the sub. + to + and - to -...

Yup Yup and Yup...

Hey, I'm in the middle of my install. Im putting in 2 cadence amps, a 12" type r and some pg rsd65cs comps. Right now I'm just trying to get the sub working first. I have the amps set up with a distribution block and when my head unit turns on, both amps are getting power (the LED power light...

I have a Cadence TXA-1502 amp from before and I was wondering if this would give enough power to my new components. It would save me a lot of money cause I already have this amp. It puts out 75x2 at 4 ohms. I've been reading that probably around 100wx2 is optimal, but the speakers are rated at...
