I always make a crazy mess when i solder - guess that's the beauty of practice, but I don't get much time for this stuff...

Thanks for the help! I checked the harnesses pretty carefully and after a lot of frustration I found that the scotch lock I used to tap the ACC wire was ever so slightly loose. It was a little weird because I got power to one side after I took the fuses out of the amp to test and re-installed...

I switched out my head units today - a swap from a Pioneer 860mp to a Pioneer 780mp. Since the harnesses were the same, I did not disconnect the battery. When I got everything all plugged back in, the HU works perfectly, but now my front amp is not getting power. It's not in protection mode...

I have a set of CDT CL-6EX and a Cadence q4000 amp. I was thinking of bridging the amp to the coaxials, but I don't want to overdo it. Looks like it won't be too much of an issue from what I have read, but a second opinion (or third or fourth) is always welcome Amp...

Hey Guys, I have a Pioneer deh-p860 mp. Last Halloween I dropped my faceplate in a puddle and it worked fine for a while and then it started powering on and off intermittently. Now it seems that it has finally kicked the bucket, as there is no power at all. I found a replacement faceplate on...

Well, I had been thinking about keeping the 8awg and doing a distro block into two more 8awg leads, one for each amp. I know that it would help to run the new wire, I am just feeling a tad lazy and wondering how mandatory upgrading the wire is before putting in the 100ix. I am actually feeling...

Hey Guys, I am planning on adding another amp to my system for two small Tang Band subs. The amp I will be adding is a RF 100ix. I already have a Cadence Q4000 which is rated at 4x70. I am currently running cheapo 8awg wire and I am having trouble deciding whether or not to upgrade to Knu...

**** - worth a shot, anyway. Thanks, guys...

I was thinking of putting 1 or 2 8in. Assassins in a stealth enclosure and I need them to occupy less depth. Though I have never seen one in person, it looks to be a good candidate for debucking. Thoughts? Opinions? Pointers?

Might be interested in those midbasses.

So today I hooked up a Kenwood KDC-C717 changer to a KDC-MPV519 deck. I haven't used the changer in a while but I think it wokred fine last time I used it. When I turned it on today there is a consistent clicking or static noise and also consistent noise when the volume is raised. This is...

I have a very similar setup, except that I have the adapter that allows the changer as well and I am running a DEH-P6400 deck. I can say that SQ on an iPod isn't great anyway, but the dock connection is the best way to get SQ, rather than through the head phone jack. More practically, make...

I just added some clay to my GF's car over the weekend. It made a very noticable difference. I went to an art supply store and got some clay the has a melting point of 150. I think it's called Roma Prima. It looks like a stick of butter except that it weighs a pound. I got that kind because...

Bump for a great guy with great taste. Buy these!
