    8 volt HU

    i did a test with a alpine head unit and a rockford head unit. I did the test about a yr ago so i dont remember what model alpine it was but it was 4v and the rockford was 5v. I put in a test cd and at about 1/2 volume on the alpine it was giving out 5% distortion, at about 1.5v. The rockford...

    Saturn Ion

    gm has had that in many other cars for awhile. I ck 00-03 ion and they dont have the relocation application. so if it is in the 04 it is new. i will ck and let you no. The relocation is not only for the chime it is also for the air bags.

    Opinions wanted: RF Comp.'s model T1682S 6x8

    The new power components are very nice. i was impressed with there sound quaility. they are also made extremely well. You will want to power them with an amp that is 75-100watts rms. if you do not put an amp to them they are not that good. very power hungry.

    4Volt to 8Volt Pre-Outs Question!

    you will hear the difference once you put the eclipse in the car! the head unit is the starting point of the whole system. I just took one of my demo cars and took out a 4v alpine and installed a eclipse 8053, eclipse is running a great special on those head units and the sound was night and...

    comparable to 12w6?

    the new w3 was designed to replace the old w6, handles more power and is more durable. the older w6 is a 12yr old design, so by todays spec,s it is out dated

    Amp Cut-Off

    that amp is rated to run at 4 ohms mono. i bet you have a dual 4 ohm voice coil speaker and u are running it in parallel and the amp sees a 2 ohm load. that is usually what causes your problem. if that is the case you need to get a differnt woofer or get a 2 ohm stable amp. soundfxny.com
