Find a local welding supply store. Most sell and crimp wire in the 1/0 to 2/0 size and they crimp at the store. If you have any local its a great place to buy pure copper wire and have made up for ya

Well, happy to say they are still going strong. I run these daily and the combo of the rockford1500.1 and 2 sa12's has been a delight. I was worried for awhile about them holding up to my style of listening which is to say loud. I just bought a 2016 Tundra and am seriously thinking of doing 2...

A 4'jumper wire with a push button and spare computer has made alot of high tech guys scratching there ***. Insurance and commonsence is about all ya can do. If someone wants it, they can get it. All this "cant be stolen" talk ends when a guns in your face. Just plan for the worst

Coming up on 6 months since i installed my system in my truck and I gotta say they have just gotten better and better. The box i made seems to really only like the low low stuff which is hard to listen to rock with but the amp and subs are a good match fo sho. The Infinty plate for the dash are...

The wife and i drove down loop 336 Saturday and saw all the cars and trucks on the way to the lake. She got online and saw there was the throwdown & a gunshow over there, two of my favorite things ( im more of a gun nutt than a stereo guy) I thought of bringing my truck up there Sunday but...

Find your 75% volume of your head unit. Then unplug the speaker wire from the amp. Play your tone at 75% of full volume. I like to put the probes into the speaker wire clamps on the amp and tightennthe set screws onto the probes so you dont have to hold them. Set gain until you get your target...

I downloaded an O app for my phone. I wish there where more people that would test these out with real machines and see if its even in the ballpark to use.

Yep sounds like a remote. You can use a little 1 foot wire as a jumper from your power wire and make sure your amps work. Remember by doing that the amps will not turn off untill you unplug the jumper. Its just ment to check your amps and see if you have a remote problem. Another thing to check...

Cant help. Im getting back into the game myself. Last time i had a system it was with brand new rockfords that where black with red and white lettering and had end caps. :0

+1 its cheap. Comes with a thick insulation. Flexable. And pure copper. I dont think i have ever seen copper clad welding wire. I mean im sure it out there but i never saw it at a good weldibg store. Plus most welding stores have the ring termanals for 1/0 cheap to. All you need is a vice or...

I could have swore that i read something stateing that. It had to do with haveing a load on the rca's to mimic a amp. Could be wrong though. I have never actualy measured any rca output before. Only amp when settibg gains.

I thought you hax to run it threw a resistor to check voltage on a rca?

Budget?

Why not crank it up all the way to get a strong signal to the RCA's then just adjust the gains? Not understanding why you woild want less than 4-5 volts if you could get it. I look for H.U.'s with a min. of 4 so....? Bare in mind i have never used one of these line convertors so im not 100% on...

Found a pic of the relay for ya.
