    new *pop* in sub

    Sorry for the time lapse- its easy to just click your heels and move on to the next thing. The turn on delay module definitely does the job. Under these circumstances, the problem is NOT a ground issue as many around this forum and others have suggested. "This thump is caused by the audio...

    new *pop* in sub

    bump I came across an informative article in the meantime which addresses several types of undesirable noise: Noise Prevention Ive tried to ground the EQ to a few different locations, once to the same spot as the amp ground which made it worse. I just ordered a turn-on delay. tj_hooker- this...

    H/U problems

    so Ive got a circa-2000 Alpine H/U (model number escapes me) that is having some issues. Its like the sound intermittently jumps from one audio level to another. More specifically, it sounds like the BBE (or equivalent) is turned on and off. Some days I dont notice it but others (maybe...

    fosgate RFQ-1401 and 200a2?

    I recently came across a fosgate RFQ-1401. Any personal experience with it? Im not sure if Ill keep it. What would be a fair used price? Same story for an older fosgate 200a2. How much is fair? It has some permanent marker tagging on it (?!) Thoughts?
