Click here for for hd600/4 specs. unfortunately JL's rips system can't handle 1 ohm but able to put out same rms at 4 or 8 ohms. It was powering the sub fine very impressed for such small box I had it on

Yes The JL HD600/4 is supposed to handle 8 ohms with its RIPS system . It worked very well for few years. Did I miss something by running it at 8 ohms?

I have been very pleased with my SD-2 8 D4 - Sundown Audio 8" 300W rms being pushed by a bridged JL hd600/4 since I installed it few years back with help from you guys here in caraudio. Couple months ago the front right channel of my hd600/4 started intermittently cutting in and out and...

Originally I have it on the red wire (constant 12v power ) but like I posted earlier I tried both remaining blue wires but no luck. Which wire should I try tapping it? Or is it bcause I have left the blue wires unconnected from the metra harness and directly wired to my remote gain?

Did you mean should not matter too much? I'm a noob here so how exactly do I check voltage that you're asking? Is there any other option where i can splice the remote turn so that it will shut off when hu is off? I have tried to do the dmm gain setting with jl specs for the hd600/4 but didn't...

Noticed my amp doesn't turn off when radio is off but it turns off when car is off. So pulled the hu again and tried one out of the 2 blue wires (supposedly ant and remote amp), now amp turns off when hu is off even when car is running but amp turns off when the hu is switched from radio to...

Turns out my crimping skills is the suspect, one wire came loose as I shoved the HU back in. Hooked it up sgain and lights are back on. Anyway I haven't even finish the install and already planning to change my amp for the third time in the near future so I'd like to prewire it for a 5 ch while...

Anyway I'd say 90% finished. Amp hooked up with sub and layed new wires for tweeter dash and front door. All I need is the 6.5 adapter and I'm done. Well not really test drove it, sounded great even without the midbass yet but the lights on HU is out :doh:. should be illumination wiring right...

ok . Thanks. Quick question anyone know which wire is + or - on Image Dynamics CTX 6.5 tweeter? Found it's manual didn't say which is which.

The the amp is working now with sub, man the HD600/4 is overkill for the JL 10W0v3-4, gain is not even quarter up with bass set -5, truck is thumpin! I'll probably look for another shallow mount speaker with higher RMS rating to replace this JL. Quick question on fuse, the HD600/4 manual...

ust wired up the sni35 1 to front HU and SNI35 2 to rear. just to verify 12 volt red from HU to remote turn on rfor amp right? I'm using 2 toyota metra harness so do I hook up everything else on the harness besides the front and rear to SNI35 ( 12 volt memory, ground, power ant,)?

D-Day today! Started at 12p halfway there. Amp wired up with power,ground and speakers wires to crossover hiding spot. just need to deal with wiring with HU. Bracket/adapter got online from tacotunes for 6x9 to 6.5 doesn't fit. Will need to make a trip to a shop tomorrow to get it fabricated...

Ok got it. Almost have everything I need to do the install, component is scheduled to be delivered later today. I was going to start sound deadening the door this morning but rained overnight with 1 rear window cracked open so will need to wait for it to dry up. Got the wiring cables and just...

whats the big 3?

Thanks for the reply. Originally it was just a low budget build, hook up the cheap sub box that I picked up and I'm happy with the added bump with the single 10" but we all know how every budget builds gets out of hand easily once you start reading up on one of these forums. The audio control...
