    noise in amp

    I wired my car like normal, rca's on one side, power source on the other to keep them separated, but when i hooked up my amp to the highs, i noticed a slight humming/broken record type noise in the speakers that sounded like it might be caused by power line noise in the rca's. When i ran the...

    rattle

    hey, I drive an 89 honda prelude and my trunk lid, tailights, and especially rear deck where my 6.5" speakers installed rattles real bad. Is a dynamat xtreme trunk kit going to work magic on my trunk, or is there something more i should do? Any suggestions appreciated, it sounds like $hit at...

    What are the best RCA's?

    i paid the extra for monster cable everything, rca's, 4 ga. power kit, etc, and i love them. The quality is definitely there, and everything sounds great. I'm sure all these guys are probably right that it doesn't matter as much what the name is as long as you get something decent. good luck

    speaker wiring

    I understand that i would no longer be able to fade, but that really doesn't seem like an issue to me, being that i have always had the fader set to zero without the amp and the imaging in the car seems well balanced that way. Is it possible that an amp would throw that off, because it seems to...

    speaker wiring

    hey, i have a kenwood kac-829 2 channel amp that i want to run to my highs. the speakers i want to connect it to are 2 Alpine SPS-1629S and 2 Infinity 652i. I am assuming that both speakers are 4 ohm load, and should i just wire two speakers on each channel? for example, front left and back...

    second amp install

    one more question though, i have the rca's already run for the jbl so i figured i could just hook the two amps together for rca's as well as power, maybe even speaker level inputs or whatever, is that ok? and can i run the speaker wire from the amp to the head unit and splice it into the wires...

    second amp install

    hey, i'm currently running a jbl bp600.1 to two 12s, and i want to add another amp that has been sitting in my room, a kenwood kac-829 to run to my highs, which consist of Alpine SPS-1629S coax and Infinity 652i coax, both 6.5 inches.

    running wires....

    Hey, I have been running, for quite some time, a JBL BP600.1 to 2 bazooka EL 12's. However, my ground, as well as my power cable were both on the skimpy side, and i decided to upgrade to 4 gauge monster cable. The only problem is, when I attempted to run the new wiring it was simply too big...

    wiring amp to speakers

    Hey, I was previously running 2 Bazooka EL1204 off a Kenwood KAC829 2 channel amp. I've since bought a JBL BP600.1 and hooked it up (killer amp by the way). Anyways, what i was wondering is this: I would like to hook the old Kenwood amp up to either my front or rear speakers, or both. I am...

    amp wiring?

    when you say 600 watts rms, i'm guessing your talking a mono amp, but my question is, can you give this to two subs and end up with 300 watts rms per amp? Another question, with my amp operating in stereo with two subs wired in parallel (2 ohm load i believe) is the amp operating at 2 or 4...
