    Problems with Pioneer DEH-P8500MP

    Recently my hu has decided to shut off anytime the motorized face opens. If I keep it closed I can play cds all day long but any time the face opens it goes dead. None of the buttons work but the cd keeps playing. If I shut the car off and turn it back on it starts working again. I could...

    Help removing HU from dash

    I have a 93 Mazda 626 with a Pioneer DEH-8500MP that I need to get out. When I take the front trim piece off all I see is a din cage which the HU is in. There don't appear to be any screws holding it in, or any clips I can get at. It won't come out so I know something has to be holding it in...

    What was your first system??

    I got my first system in '99. Some Alpine hu that was on clearance, and 2 12" RF Punch RFZ1812s powered by a punch 100.a in a prefab sealed box. The hu is in my brothers car now, still works as good as the day I bought it. So does the amp, its still going strong after ~6 years of constant use.

    Linux help

    You can try WineX. It plays a lot of popular games and they have a huge database of what works and what doesn't. I've had pretty good luck with it. If you have an Nvidia card it usually works as good or better than windows.

    Bass can cause lung collapse

    Saw this article today at work. I thought it was funny and obviously not true. 1000W making a lung collapse? man, that cracks my *** up.

    tantrum 1200.1 in protection mode

    Thats exactly what happened to mine. I had my gains all the way down even. Just sitting at a stoplight and it shut off. Couldn't get it to come back no matter what I tried. I had to send mine back to PG and they fixed it

    I had to return my tantrum 1200.1 to them and it went smooth. No questions asked and they shipped me a new one. Whole thing took about 4 weeks.

    Opinions on ported box

    I have 2 Phoenix Gold Ti15s and I'd like to build a ported box for them. The subs have an EBP of 48. I've been reading and most of what I've heard says that an EBP of less than 50 is best suited for a sealed enclosure. Am I wasting my time building a ported box?

    Need new 12"s

    Thank you for the replies. My financial situation precludes me from buying an amp right now and it'll be 2-3 months before I can buy one. I'm looking in the 1000-1500W range so I'd like to buy for the future, something I can use now on my mediocre 600W amp, but that will also handle being run...

    Need new 12"s

    My pair of 5 year old Rockford 12"s have finally died. I have a RF Power 551s amp which will do 300Wx2 at 2ohm. So I'm in the market for a pair of 4ohm dvc 12" subs. I'm not looking to spend more than $250-300. I've been thinking about getting a pair of Alpine Type-Rs which will run me...
