Another vote for Mechman Alternator here. Seems like a small outfit, I've only ever talked to one person there, but the quality is good, and they do what they're rated for. Of course I've never dealt with any other brands for HO alts, Mechman has either been the only option for my car, or the...

So you have a sub? If so, you need to set your filters. I set them at around 80-100 hz depending on how high my subs can go, then match the HPF. It takes a lot of work away from the mids that way. It also sounds like the HU is seeing 2 ohms from those JBLs, which means you're not putting the...

Well, I found the problem. Turns out the rear speaker tweeter post had vibrated loose. Pulled the back plate off, pulled the screw and reinstalled with some locktite. It's been working for a few months now, so the sound must have been coming from the tweeter post vibrating.

IPV5 with a Smok TFV8 tank. My new favorite juice is All In by Five Fold Vapor. Looking for a new mod. This one hits well enough, but the magnetic battery door is annoying and the paint is peeling off.

That was a bit harsh, and was not at all helpful. The sound is coming from the door speaker, not the subs. I'm not under the impression that my system is the hottest on the block, nor did I ever brag about it like it was. You may not have meant to sound like an "a$$" but you sure accomplished it...

Alright, I have a weird problem I'll post here, any help would be appreciated as I have NO clue what's going on. At high levels (30-40 out of 50 from the head unit) I hear distortion coming from my right rear speaker. At higher levels (40-45/50 from HU) it spreads to the front right speaker as...

Hello everybody, I'm new to this site, though I would consider myself moderately experienced with sound. I've had 5.1 systems in my house since I first moved out on my own (9 years or so), and just recently expanded that to my car as well. Here's what I pieced together for my car. 08 Dodge...
