    Help me build a nice system from the ground up

    Thank you guys. I think I have it set up correctly now, but I want to be sure. I'm pushing 39.92-39.97v out of the recommended 40.00v at a volume of 47 of 62. 47 is 75% of my volume which is the max volume I will play my music at when driving. Its not where distortion is its just 75% of the...

    Help me build a nice system from the ground up

    I put the car in a shop yesterday. It got so bad that the car would not even start at all. I'm unsure if its audio related at all anymore as you will see from the issue I describe below, but nevertheless I would like your opinion on what you think caused this. Do you believe this to be a failing...

I currently do not have an amplifier for my speakers so we must take that into account, I am looking to buy a 5 channel amp to...

    Help me build a nice system from the ground up

    I have a 2001 Corvette that needs a new audio system in it ASAP, but it all has to be able to work with my stock 110 amp alternator. The problem is everything seems to drain the battery on this car. I can't understand why or how to fix this. The battery will drain so bad that the car won't even...

    Looking for some advice on the best way to configure this.

    I re-measured the trunk space once again with the custom box removed and its dimensions come out as 19 tall | 22 accross. The box itself could sit in this area if it needed to. Now what sub box do you recommend I put in this space thats 19 tall x 22 wide. Remember I listen to rap mostly so I...

    Speaker wire polarity

    I have a speaker wire, but its not labeled at all. One has just silver on one side and the other side has copper with a very small strip of silver in it. Which one of these is positive and which one of these is negative. There is no labeling whatsoever, no stripe. Nothing at all. The...

    Looking for some advice on the best way to configure this.

    One of my buddies has a 1 ohm subwoofer with a box available for purchase. Is there any issue with running a 1 ohm sub on a 2 ohm amp? My amp is KAC-9106D capable of doing 1000 watts at 2 ohm.

    Looking for some advice on the best way to configure this.

    I know, but there aren't too many boxes that fit my vehicle. Its inside a corvette. If you know of a box that can support a normal sub and fit in a corvette I will definately look into it ASAP. I kind of hate my bass being so limited to shallow mounts and certain boxes only. For the bass itself...

    Thank you guys, what about SLA is it bad to have it at +4? Will it introduce more distortion into the system? Also what is auto level on pioneer decks used for? Thanks again!

    Looking for some advice on the best way to configure this.

    1). Do you recommend starting a new configuration with the eq set to flat, super bass, powerful, or a smiling eq? The head unit is a pioneer 6800BS. It defaults to powerful mode even when I do a system reset on the headunit. 2). What do you recommend setting the LPF at for a subwoofer which has...
