Yeah sorry about the mixup I thought that you might have to fuse the output to the sub from the Amp, I guess not. The fusing requirements from Xtant on that 403A is a 60amp fuse close the Amp? I thought that I had to go to say a 20 or 25 amp fuse to protect the wire from burning up if I get 8...

Thanks guys, alright I think thats everything except size for the wire. For my 400W Xtant (underrated quite a bit I hear) for the main power to the amp I should run 4gauge with a 40amp fuse, then for the sub channel run 8 gauge with a 20 amp fuse right? Or should I just run the one fuse? Thanks.

Hey there, I am really new to wiring up stuff for car audio with the exception of hooking up my Headunit. What I need to know is how to hook up power-amp-my sub. Do I just run a fused power wire to my amp directly from the battery, or do I tap it into the ignition? From there I just run wires...

I have been recommended a couple different tweeters including the above mentioned LPG, and also the Seas line. What do you guys suggest, since the seas are twice as much as the Northcreeks, hmmmm

Well I don't have any cash to spare at the moment but I have everything for my system except for the mids and tweeters. I have been reading through alot of posts on here and diyaudio.com and such and well I would really love to hook up some horns along with some extremis or xxx's. But like I...

If I do need a small amplifier, I have a really really old 40Watt 2-Channel amplifier in my shop, its about 4x4x1 inches, but since it is so old, I dont know how much power it would actually be putting out. Would this work to power the horns, I was thinking the Headunit would be better since it...

I thought that horns don't need much power at all, that alot of people feed them anywheres from 10-60wrms? My Headunit is 26wrms is it not? Would it not work?

Hi there, I just picked up an Arc Audio Arc 12". I picked it up off of ebay after reading that they are basically an improved version of the IDQs which I was looking at anyways. Well I think that this thing is a version 1, here are some pics of it...

Hi there, I have been looking through tons and tons of pages of reviews and such for Speakers and I don't have that much money but if I land a good deal I will snatch it up. What I have been reading pretty much tells me that for a good response on any metal, rock, and such horns are the only way...

I am looking at putting in some horns, if the right deal comes up. I was wondering for the installation can they be mounted vertically. Because to me that would be the easiest way to install them vertically on my door and just sort of blend it in with the door. Thanks.

The sub I will be getting will be a Dual 4ohm. And the components will probably be 4ohm.

Hey there, well I am picking up an Arc Audio Arc Series 12" Subwoofer and I need to get some components to go along with it. I don't have any money to spend but I am sure I can scrounge up $100 for some comps. So I was wondering if there is a better option for the price of the PG X6.5s or the...

Hey there, I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a site or just tell me how to wire up my amp to my system. Currently it is a Alpine 9835 HU with an Xtant 403A Amplifier, which is rated at 50Wx2+100Wx1 at 4ohm. What I want to do is run my component speakers at 4ohm off...

is this still going on, I like the looks of the 8s. I want to put two of them in my truck for subwoofers......

Hi there, Well I am bottomed out for money, so I have to be very creative as to what I get for my system right now. I was going to get just one 12, or one 10. But I have been looking lately at getting two 8s. The reason for this is that I know that with 8s they will have it alot easier to keep...
