    Newbie could use a little help

    The best advice that I can tell you is first go to a local shop and listen to JL audio speakers. They make some of the best products but you may not like them. For example, the highs are to bright or the bass is not enough. Also while your there, shop around from different speaker brands. Ask...

    Wiring help please!!

    Sorry buddy in taking so long to respond...college and work. Yes, run the ground from the memphis amp to passenger seat(where its grounded). Try to make the ground cable as short as possible. The longer the cable the more chances you will receive noises to your system.

    Wiring help please!!

    Connect the memphis under the driver seat because your going to have to ground the memphis at the same place where you grounded the JL auido amp. If you ground the amps in different places than you will have a ground looping effect in your music. When you connecting more than one amp, you have...

    What do you recommend?

    WAIT. DO NOT GET DUAL VOICE COILS. You have to understand the way electricity works. The amp will produce 225 watts in 4 ohms per channel. The amp will produce more watts PER channel in 2 ohms. So if you want to get 2 ohms per channel than get the dual voice coils. If you wan to bridge the...

    remote(blue) power wire in stock lexus sc400

    The red wire on the back of the radio is the remote switch. If there is more than one then get a voltmeter. One of the wires is connected the ignition switch and another is connected directly to the battery. Stick the voltmeter on to the wire while the car is off. Only one wire should receive...

    cd player working with no sound.

    Ok, you said that only one speaker is working. I'm assuming that before you installed the pioneer the music was coming out on all four speakers. If it was working before the installation and the pioneer is receiving power than it could be only a couple of things. It could be that the speaker...

    Need a Quick Answer on Speaker Setup!!!!

    You need the amp kit to power the amp and speaker wire to connect the speakers to the amp. The amp kit comes with everyting you need to connect the speakers and the am. The extra 30 ft monter cable is good to have because you might need, just in case your short.

    voltage question

    The battery voltage will change depending on alot factors ( A/C on, cold day, etc...) and 13.5 to 14.4 range is about right for a stock battery but not for amps. You could buy a better battery (optima is good choice) if your running many devices but if not, dont bother.

    Run amp to rears to keep HU amp off?

    Theoretically, if the HU's amp is off then the voltage of the HU to your RCA cable increases. Which means more voltage to your amp and a louder output. You won't hear the difference but if your runnning your speakers to a seperate amp, there's no point of having the HU's amp on, in my opinion.

    technical wiring deal......

    Ok, the best way in my opinion is this, your going to need a power distribution block. What that is one power going in and four power outputs. You can find them at any car audio place. Tell them the gauges of the wires. Now the power is out of the way, your going to run the patch cable from the...

    Monster Cable RCA's?

    Here's a couple of suggestions. This is going to be time consuming but this might work. Run the power cable and remote wire on one side of the car. Then run the RCA and speaker cables on the other side of the car. If you have more than one amp, ground both amps together or ground them no more...
