    thinking of trading brz1700.1D, massive audio 2k or saz1200?

    I have two sa15's running off of a brz1700. I have the opp to trade it plus a small amount of cash for either a massive audio 2k or a saz1200. What out of the three amps would be best for me? I know the saz is the best quality of the three, im just worried its too small

    99 Denali/Escalade, help?

    You will want to run a 4 channel amp and all new speaker wire to the doors. The stock Bose amp is integrated deep in the car and bypassing it ( like mine is now, waiting to install new amp ) you will lose some functionality. If you hook up the aftermarket speakers to the Bose amp you will lose a...

    Forward Firing 6x9's behind second row suv, good idea?

    I ended up grabbing a pair of memphis 6.5 mid range ( part of a set of components ) for the rear doors, so I dont have to modify the door as much if at all. May add a cross over and set of tweeters some time in the future.

    Forward Firing 6x9's behind second row suv, good idea?

    Forward Firing 6x9's behind second row suv, good idea?

    6x9s are 3 way I have the cross overs that the components came with so I was planning on running those and setting the amp to full ( no electronic cross over ) for the fronts. If I run the 6x9s off the amp I may use the electronic cross over settings but I really have no knowledge on how to set...

    Bass Knob Question HIfonics BRZ1700.1D

    Grr, thanks for the response! I posted this question on 3 different boards and have gotten both answers lol, some say its bass boost, some say gain... How can I actually test it? I dont think its bass boost, because I have that turned to 0 on the amp, and my subs still bang. When I turn the bass...

    Bass Knob Question HIfonics BRZ1700.1D

    I have dug around the internet and looked for an answer to this, and have found somewhere in the neighborhood of a million different theorys. I have my BRZ 1700's gain set properly, and its running my 2 sundowns. I would like to be able to lower the volume of the subs without having to go...

    Adding a set of components, and 4 channel. Are these good speakers?

    I ended up getting a pair of polk audio dxi6500's for the front. I went and listened to a bunch and they seemed to be the best of the bunch. Will post once they are in. I think Im gonna leave the rears stock, but can I go ahead and plug in my rear channel rcas and run them to the amp but not...

    Next Stage of Audio, Big Three, second Amp, wiring questions

    I got my big three done. I used aluminum tinned copper solder on 0 gauge 3/8ths lugs, as I didn't want to trust crimp style ring terminals, and KnuKoncepts KCA 0 gauge to do it all. I honestly don't see any difference. I will upload 2 before and after videos of my stock voltage meter playing the...

    Adding a set of components, and 4 channel. Are these good speakers?

    My amp is a Hifonics TXi4408, its specs are as follows. 4 ohms: 55 watts x 4 chan. 2 ohms: 110 watts x 4 chan. 2 ohms: 220 watts x 2 chan I am wanting to run at 2 ohm to get the most out of the amp, and that has me looking at infinity components. Infinity Reference 6030cs 6-3/4" component...

    adding 4 channel amp, RCA vs HighLevelInput

    I have bypassed my bose amp, and have an extended speaker wire harness running to my deck, It would be very easy to reverse that and run that harness from the head unit to an after market amp's high level inputs. I could also run two more sets of RCAs from my head unit to the rear, and use the...
