    Directed Electronics authorized dealers

    hehe, I got a refurbished Directed Audio amp on my golfcart, and through all the shaking and vibrating and abuse, that thing is still jammin'.

    Rear fill

    You never know the value of something until it's gone.... that's what has been said of rear fill.... maybe you don't know what you're missing. I think it's always good to have at least a LITTLE sound coming from behind you, because I personally like to be "immersed" in the music. Some people...

    rear view mirror vibration

    Yes, there might be something that will help. I heard someone say they put a piece of rubber (like a thick gasket) between the mount and the rearview mirror and it stopped all vibration and rattling. I think it would work because it would not be as solidly mounted as before and the rubber would...

    head unit in golfcart

    Well, it doubles as a property management vehicle along with being a ghetto cruising vehicle, lol. While the hitch doesn't get used much, I've used it to pull jetskis (trailer w/ 3 jetskis), a small boat, larger empty trailers, and most of the time, a small red trailer used for hauling around...

    head unit in golfcart

    http://forums.caraudio.com/vb/showthread.php?t=56870 My personal install, easy, just like in a car. You don't need a special toggle switch either (if you turn it off, just like in a car, the clock won't run the battery dead, and you don't ever want it completely off unless you like losing your...

    Why More Resistance?

    If you have to run at 1 ohm (and the amp's stable at 1 ohm) to get all the power you need for your sub(s) then you should run it at 1 ohm. I was just saying that if you get plenty of power at 4 ohm, then it's best to run it at 4 ohm because of increased efficiency, decreased current draw, and...

    Why More Resistance?

    Thanks for clearing that up. I know the amp can't put out the same amount of power at 4 ohm as it can in 1 ohm, but I was saying I had the gains set so they put out about the same amount to the sub.

    Why More Resistance?

    There are some advantages to different ohm loads however as I've observed. An amp is most efficient at higher impedences like 4 ohms as opposed to 1 ohm. Therefore to get the same power at 1 ohm as you did at 4 ohm, the current draw is a lot more. It has something to do with output transistors...

    Golfcart System Is Done

    Yeah the subs are great and I'm only running that amp at 2 ohm and on that 12V battery. Soo, they definately are not getting as much power as they could, but good enough. Thanks for recommending them.

    Legacy Amp

    Yeah, I hate to tell you but you won't be getting anywhere near 2400W most likely. Look at what amp rating the fuses are and that will give you an idea of how much it REALLY puts out. I had a so called 2000W Legacy that had like 2 20A fuses. The DEI 1100D I now have has 2 40 A fuses with the amp...

    Golfcart System Is Done

    I don't use it to golf, no. I do however live right next to the golfcourse and I drive along the fenceline bumping so it makes the golfers mad sometimes, hehe. I drive this thing up and down the road all the time annoying the crap out of the neighbors which is fun. Most of the time I am...

    did that fix it? I got a free trial at some image hosting place. Don't know how long those pics are good for but I hope it worked.

    OK, would you please.... do I just email them to you or what? I'm uploading images to another site to fix this hopefully, hang on, it might work.

    Golfcart System Is Done

    What the hell, I thought they worked. They do for me. I guess that site doesn't support remote hosting anymore or something. If someone wants to host them for me then let me know. sorry
