Thanks for the replies guys. I'll be running some pioneer amps, a 50 X 4, a 100 X 2, and a 600 x 1 in an 09 kia rio. I have one more question regarding fusing. How do I tell how many amps the fuse at the battery should be rated for? Someone told me that you can add up the numbers on the fuses in...

Hi, sorry for the n00b questions but here they are. I will soon be purchasing a P99RS head unit. As you know pioneer recommends the setup of having one four channel amp power highs and mids, one four channel amp bridged to two channels to power the woofers, and one mono amp to power subs. I...

I've been looking at head units and amps and everything inbetween. I was going to try and go for the one of the soundstream amps but then I saw that they have all these weird crossovers and stuff. Maybe it's just me, but it seems that building a crossover into an amp, one that can not be passed...

Hi Trumpet, Thanks for writing so quickly. I appreciate your response but will need a little bit of clarification on the "duck's guts" comment. When you say that, I assume it is a good thing, like saying "it's the whole package" or something. I should probably ask this in one of the n00b...

By the way, it's either an awesome home or car audio system or a motorcycle!

Hi Everyone, Just as the post says I am looking to get back into car audio. I am busy doing some research but it's been 15 years since I built a system and things have changed alot, while others have stayed much the same. I am looking for the start of my system, which will be a high quality...
