    Amp doesn’t seem to be getting power

    Looking for some suggestions or help, working on a Hifonics 1200 watt amp; was working fine until a few days ago, now won’t get power. The blue “Hifonics” letters light up very dim, not like normal, but the power light on the amp doesn’t come on. Checked power, ground and remote turn on wire...

    Good upgrade or no?

    So currently in the F150 I have a single Rockford Fosgate R2 downfired under my rear seat on a 250 watt Rockford amp (No hate, first system!) Anyway, I can barely notice the sub anymore, it sounds nice I'm just used to it. Considering upgrading the sub to either a Sundown SD-3 10, or Skar Audio...

    Fosgate P3 slim?

    Hey guys, looking to upgrade my F150's sub in the near future. Current is a Rockford Fosgate R2 (don't hate, first system. Actually sounds decent for a budget sub) Anyway, Im looking at the shallow mount P3 (P3S 10 inch) Anyone have any feedback on them. Also looking at Incriminator Audio I...

    Never let a friend help you install ANYTHING

    Just realized I have an extra Skar Audio 8 gauge kit. My plan is to completely un-do the entire install, mostly for fear that he messed up something else, and rewire it myself. I don't care about wasting a couple hours as long as it gets done right

    Never let a friend help you install ANYTHING

    Oh trust me I know. I was working on running my power/ground wires during this time and wasn't watching him. Partially my fault for not checking his work but for God sakes, you'd think common sense would kick in

    Never let a friend help you install ANYTHING

    So, last night I had a friend (who is apperently an 'expert' in car audio) help me re-install my sub in my F150. Nothing much, just a single 10" Rockford Fosgate along with a Rockford Fosgate Punch series amp and KnuKonceptz wiring. Anyway, everything last night and most of the day today sounded...

    Installed a new sub, seems like it isn't getting much power

    The box is an Atred with I believe .90 or .96 airspace. Sub requires 1.0 cubic feet. Will that make a difference? Also could 2500 watts not be enough?   ---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ----------   *250 watts. And its sealed

    Installed a new sub, seems like it isn't getting much power

    Just got done installing a new sub and amp in my 2003 VW Jetta. My setup is a single 12" JUL GT5-12D running on a Kicker DX250.1 mono (birthsheet rated at 274 if anyone cares) Anyway, I previously had this amp in my F150 on a single 12" Rockford, and for 2500 watts I felt it, and got some decent...

    Too little airspace?

    So I'm trying to match a box for a 12" JBL that I recently purchased. I have a sealed 12 inch box laying around with an airspace of 0.90 cubic feet. The sub requires 1.00 cubic feet. Will the box be too small? Thanks!

    Precision Power Sedona amps?

    Wouldn't the MRV-M250 be a better choice since I will have it wired to a 2 Ohm load with an RMS of 250?

    Precision Power Sedona amps?

    So after seeing the replies and reading around on the Boss R1100M amp that I was planning to use with my next sub I've decided to return it. The sub I'm using is a single Rockford Fosgate R2D4-10 10" sub (250 Watt RMS, 4 Ohm DVC). I am looking at the PP Sedona 270.1 (270 watts x 1 @ 2 Ohms, 170...

    I have an amp, will either of these setups work?

    If you don't mind me asking, what makes this amp so bad? Most of the reviews I've seen for it have actually been pretty positive, and I know it won't put out 1100 watts, or probably even close, but if I have the RF wired to 2 ohms wouldn't it supply more then enough power?

    I have an amp, will either of these setups work?

    Hey guys, been a while since my last post but I'm in the process of adding a 10" subwoofer to my 2004 F150 SuperCrew. I have it narrowed down to either a Pioneer TS-W254R (4 Ohm SVC, 250 watt RMS) or a Rockford Fosgate R2D4-10 (4 Ohm DVC, 250 watt RMS) The amp I'm using is (unfortunatly) a Boss...

    Subwoofer decision

    Out of those choices I would personally choose the Alpine's. Consider JL Audio 12W0's as well.
