i just got around to installing my alpine 9815 and it worked fine for about 3 weeks and then when i was driving the power starting coming and going very quickly. the unit's lights and power were flashing very quickly. it has continued to do this intermittently for about a week now. i have...

id call up the local junkyards and get replacement parts from there. not worth spending a lot on it though since its not worth that much to begin with. good luck.

i waited a solid 3 weeks to get my sub after i ordered. yes its long, but the thing is... i was told exactly how long it was going to take before i ordered so i knew what to expect going in. by the way, the receptionist is very nice and helpful. she'll do her best to answer all of your...

all ive got to say is, new tool album next year? cant wait.

getting components for 200 is going to be rough. a nice compact bookshelf stereo like somebody pointed to above might be your best bet. they can sound nice in a small room.

ouch. so much for originality lol

this is the way to do it correctly. http://www.cascadeaudio.com/prod/powersupp.html i have an iota dls75 myself and never use the darn thing. its a novel idea but not practical in my opinion. save your money and buy a nice home amp instead ala peavey or something like that.

i think RE recommends 2.1 cubes at 28hz on their site for sql. dont mean to hijack your thread but what are the pros and cons of going slot vented vs ported?

i like the Crystal Comp 8's. mean little subs.

ohms law: in series, final resistance is sum of the resistances. ie. X+Y=Z in parallel, final resistance follows the formula (1/X) + (1/Y) = (1/Z) if you have a 2 dual 4 ohm subs your possible final resistances (as seen by a mono amp) could be 1, 1.6, 4, 10, or 16. you wanted 4 ohms and...

i for 1 will give a vote for 2 at 750 rms hitting harder than 1 at 1500. the 1600 rms rating on the xxx is a thermal rating not how much you need to reach mechanical xmax. maybe team psi guy can back me up on this.

i have the 9815 also, is there a way to turn off the internal amp or does it simply know not to use it if it doesnt detect a load on the speaker wires after you cut and tape them?

they seem kind of ermmm (this is a techincal term now)... big.

all i see on that site are re subs... anyway, peace.
