Yeah, taking out the rears. One of the rear speakers tore at the foam around the cone. They were the old stock ones so I'm not too upset. I just didn't know if I should then run the rear wires to the front speakers too to get more power since my HU only does 22rms and the front speakers are...

Changing the set-up in my car. I'm only gonna run the front speakers. Should I wire the front and rear from each side to each speaker(In other words, front/right and rear/right to the right speaker) in order to get the most power to each speaker since the front and rear is the same signal to the...

So I found lots of threads on putting a full system into a Taurus, but I'm helping out a friend from work who only has a sub+amp that she wants to add to her factory radio, not aftermarket HU. That's where I'm having a problem because I've done a couple amp+speaker+sub installs, but I'm not...

I need to find the specs on my old amp, or more specifically, the line input voltage. I'm looking to run an Audio Control Three.1 line driver to the Power Acoustik. I looked around online and called Power Acoustik who first said that it didn't sound like one of their amps (wtf ) and then said...

I don't know what's up, but when I search the different sections it just sends me to a blank white page. I also posted in the general section, but now figured out that this is for EQs and hoped to get some more feedback. Anyway, I was hoping someone could tell me about Audio Control's Three.1...

I have a BMW E30 that has tweeter pods where the side view mirrors are. I'm currently installing Infinity Kappa 6 1/2" that have the rotating tweeters on the speakers. Am I better off leaving the Infinity tweeters unplugged and running separate tweeters in the stock location or using the...

I don't know what's up, but when I search the different sections it just sends me to a blank white page. Anyway, I was hoping someone could tell me about Audio Control's Three.1 EQ/line driver. I happened upon someone selling one but don't know a terribly lot about it. At this point I'm...

For my brother for christmas. I'm looking to get him one with an aux. so that he can direct plug his sirius sat. radio and blue tooth just cause he thinks that's cool. I think the Pioneer DEH-P5000UB looks pretty sweet. Any other suggestions or experience with the 5000?

So is not blowing my sub mostly just a matter of keeping the gain low and not turning the volume up too loud? I always have my gain pretty low anyway and never turn the volume up very loud compared to a lot of "loud" music listening people. I got into car audio much more because of quality...

I'm not at all questioning what you said, but I'm still new to car audio and I don't know that I wouldn't end up hurting something. I also don't have quite that much to spend yet anyway. I'd have to keep saving. Would I be better off money wise just buying what I need rather than buying a...

Well the 400.1 would be too much power since I need 300rms. It says it's 400. The 300 might work, but it says it has a set 80hz crossover and for some of the music I listen to, I set the x-over in my headunit higher than that, so I think it would cut off some of my higher lows. I think that...

300rms/600peak. Needs to run a 12" dual voice coil 4ohm sub. Cheaper is of course better and it doesn't have to be the BEST, but it needs to be decent and I'll spend what I need to. My current amp is a power acoustik SPL2-520. I plan to run my regular speakers with it. Does anyone know if...

I planned on amping the speakers. I'm actually looking for a new amp for my sub (300rms/600peak) and using my current amp on my speakers. I still want to get the equalizer, though, so I'm still looking into them if anyone can help. I have finally found some info on them, but still need some...

Even the basics. I've searched, and still am searching, but am not finding much about equalizers. I'm not quite happy with the sound quality of my current set-up (particularly bringing out the lower mids and separating a lower bass drum kick from a bass guitar in rock/hardcore) and would like...

So I wanted to run Sirius through my HU, but the only thing I can find to make it work is the CDSB-10 just to make things compatible for like $70 and then you have to buy a separate Sirius unit on top of that to actually get the Sat radio. Is this seriously the only thing out there or is there...
