    Deciding between 6.75" components < $100

    Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my gf's front stage. I'm looking at the Rockford Fosgate R1675-s and the Pioneer TS-D1720C. Is the Pioneer worth the extra $40? Anything else in this price range I should look at? They will be powered by a RF R300-4 (50Wx4 channels @4 ohms RMS). Car is a 2003 Kia Sorento

    Amp lights up but no Power or Protect light

    Hi, the amp is a Hifonics Brutus BRZ1200.1D. Here's the problem: When I turn on my head unit the word "Hifonics" on the amplifier lights up with blue light, however neither the green power light nor the red protect light light up. I also do not feel any vibration nor hear any sound from the...

    Dubstep and square waves

    Thanks for the info. Does the stress on the subs come from a property of dubstep or just because it is more or less constant bass?

    Dubstep and square waves

    A lot of dubstep tracks use square/sawtooth waves to produce that really dirty wobble bass, doesn't it seem like these waves would be harmful to subs? Basically, will playing a lot of dubstep kill my subs faster than normal use?

    Upgrading HU

    Hi, I am overhauling my car's sound system and the upgrade I am most excited about is my HU. I bought my car used and it came with a Sony Xplod headunit that I have never liked. It doesn't read half my cds and the aux input is scratchy at best. I purchased a Clarion CZ501 and will be...

    Hifonics Brutus BRZ1200.1D

    Ok. I wasn't sure how the speaker outs were wired together inside the amp, but that makes sense.

    Hifonics Brutus BRZ1200.1D

    Sorry, I forgot to mention I plan on wiring two 4 ohm svc subs to this to present a 2 ohm load to the amp. My question is do I need to use both or should I just use the left (-) and the left (+)?

    Did the Big 3!

    It's a 99 Buick so I figure that's about the best it will do with the stock 12 year old alternator. I currently have a RF 300-4 powering my Polk Momos components in the doors. Also I did it with 4ga (real 4 ga) because I'm broke lol.

    Hifonics Brutus BRZ1200.1D

    This amp has a single channel, but has 2 (-) and 2 (+) speaker outs. Should I wire to just one (-) and one (+) or should I wire both (-)s to one wire and both (+)s to one wire? I read that the two terminals condense to one inside the amp, so does it not matter how I wire it? I didn't want to...

    Did the Big 3!

    I did the big 3 this morning! I'm now getting 13.9 volts! This is in preparation for the Hifonics BRZ1200.1 I will be putting in next weekend.

    Power Acoustik - reccomend?

    That one looks really nice, and its right in my price range, but I'd rather get something with 3 outputs (front/rear/sub)

    Power Acoustik - reccomend?

    Hey, I'm looking to buy a double DIN hu. My budget is pretty tight, and I found this touchscreen one for under $300: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_17398_Power+Acoustik+PTID-7350NR.html Has anyone ever had experience with this headunit? Or can someone name other products in the same...

    Polk DB124 ported or sealed?

    Hey, I have two 12" Polk DB124 single 4 ohm subs. I currently have them in a box that I think is called a bandpass. The subs are firing into a sealed front chamber, and the back of the box has 4 ports. It sounds pretty good, but sometimes the bass is a little sloppy, and the subs don't fit...

    Crossover issue?

    Hey so the driver (the 6.5" one) of the left side of my polk momo mm6 component set stopped working. But when I hook it up to the right side (Swap it into the other door) it works. I have checked all of the wiring, and I have even taken out the wires that go from the crossover to the speaker...
