Thanks, I'm gona give those ideas a try.

hey everyone. I am having trouble playing MP3 CDs in my car. I have a Panasonic Head Unit http://catalog2.panasonic.com/webap...51&itemId=61892 What I have been doing is ripping my Audio CDs to MP3s on my computer and then burning them as MP3 CDs to listen to in my car. The CDs sound...

Thanks, I think I'm actually going to leave the box white, It's a white car and I sorta like the way it looks. I will clean up the wires though.

I would take the Type-R, The Type-Rs sound really good

The bass EQ can be turned most of the way up I think, Depending on how loud you want your subs to be. I have mine a little over three quarters of the way, but I've heard other people who have that amp who run it at 100%. I have a BX1000D...

Thanks guys, Ok I got the LPF set at around 100. I was reading it wrong... Also I've had the subs in for about a week and half, so I assume they are broken in. And as for the gain... I have it set about half way. I really don't know how to set it right to be honest. Thanks again guys for...

My box has one chamber per sub, each chamber is 1.1792 cu/ft. And then the sub displacement is .163 with a rear mount, I think thats what I have. so that brings the volume per sub to about 1 cu/ft. alpine recomends .7-1 cu/ft per sub, so I think I'm ok for that. And I turned down my gain, it's...

I will try that. Thanks. Would Polyfill make things any tighter? Could things be getting messy at high volumes because my RCA cables are getting interference? or they aren't good enough cables?

Hey everyone, I just wanted to say thanks, I finally got my box finished last week, and my subs in it and everything. The advice I got on this board was really helpful, this is my first setup. Here are two pictures of my setup...

Hey, I just got two 12" Alpine Type-Rs and a Hifonics BX1000D for just under 500 from IKE Sound. I am happy with them, I got them more for SQ, but they can pound pretty well too. I put them in a sealed box, so if you got them from IKE sound you should have enough money to buy or build a sealed...

hey, I just got the same amp and I'm tryin to figure out how to set it up too. I just turned the cross-over and subsonic filter to where it sounded good, I have a sealed box so I can get away with that, I don't know if your dealing with a ported box. As for the bass eq I'm really stumped, I...

So if I set my head unit at +6 which is the max, you were right, I will have 2.5 volts coming out of the pre-amp. 2.5 was the voltage listed in my manual I think. Ok, well I will borrow one a multimeter, do you recomend and tutorials or do you know how I can figure out what voltage I need...

Does the control on the head unit have to do with how much of the 2.5v is being sent to the amp? or am I way off.
