    Sub louder after adding amp for my door speakers?

    Hey guys, I'm really just trying to understand what exactly made my sub louder. I ran a thicker gauge wire from the battery last night and attached a second amp which is running to my door speakers. Now, my subwoofer (which is hooked up to my original amp) sounds a lot more powerful. What...

    Hooking up component speakers to an amp.

    Ah!!! Let me check when I get home. I spliced the tweeter wires too so its a good thing I ordered some female disconnects. So the signal from the amp sends out the audio to the speakers? I currently have the tweeters spliced to the wires in the door panel. (where the audio signal is currently...

    Hooking up component speakers to an amp.

    I don't remember seeing a second set of terminals on the woofers and there was a second set of wires in the door panel for the tweeter. This is my dilemma. I hope I'm explaining this ok. Scratch that if it doesn't make sense. Are the speaker wires running from the amp meant to replace the...

    Hooking up component speakers to an amp.

    Hey, I recently purchased a set of Kenwood KFC709PS component speakers. I set them up in my 2006 scion tc. The way they are setup, the tweeters lines have built in crossovers, the mid/low speakers do not. How would I go about hooking up an amp to these? I read somewhere I can attach the amp...

    Ground melted in my previous amp.

    I noticed that! I noticed that gunk had accumulated under the ground even though it was secured very tight. Very interesting, I did not know this. Thanks a lot for your response man this helped a lot.

    Ground melted in my previous amp.

    Hey guys, My last amp was a Infinity Reference 611a. I was powering 2 12 inch Alpine type Rs. It went well for about a year and a half and then the ground in my amp melted. I spoke with someone today who said the problem was probably a bad ground. He said it was probably due to not having a...

    On budget. Need amp to push 2 Alpine 4 ohm 12 inch type Rs

    Ya I'm not trying to go all in for this. I'm on a very tight budget and just want something so they can run. Nothing outstanding, but nothing garbage. I'm very rookie when it comes to car systems, etc.

    On budget. Need amp to push 2 Alpine 4 ohm 12 inch type Rs

    I'm looking to spend 100-150 for an amp. I already have the wiring installed in my car. I'm replacing an amp I bought used that blew after a year and a half of use. The amp I was using was an Infinity Reference 611a.

    On budget. Need amp to push 2 Alpine 4 ohm 12 inch type Rs

    SWR-1241D 4Ω+4Ω - That's what it says on the back of my sub speakers. I'm very new to all of this and am not very knowledgeable. I need an amp to push these speakers. Not looking for crazy bass. Just some light/moderate bumping. What is a low cost amp that will get the job done? I was looking...
