Have a quick question about speakers popping when turning off the car. I installed a (old cheap) four channel amp I pulled from my closet and four speakers (Infinity). When I turn the car off I get the famous popping sound. But while troubleshooting the popping sounds I discovered the...

Should I expect a sarcastic answer? Or does he ship to Canada? I have ordered plenty of items from the US and have never had a problem when using USPS. UPS is the ABSOLUTE worst and FedEx is not much bettter. There must be some online stores that have shipped to Canada? All I am looking...

Only places around my area for goods is Best Buy and the sister store Future Shop. From reading all the posts on suggestions it looks like I should stay away from them. So I am looking for recommendations of places which will ship to Canada using USPS. UPS and FedEx are complete rip-offs when...

I predict it would be less trouble and less time consuming if I were to simply buy another sub.

Thanks all... just thought I would ask.

Single 4 ohm.

Is it possible to take a 4 ohm sub and add a resister in parallel some how get the resistance to drop to 2ohm. One of those questions that I was wondering about...

Well I continued testing today I believe this issue is not a ground loop but rather the Pioneer head unit emitting noise from the RCA outputs. I disconnected the RCA input from the amps, connected my ipod using the RCA -> mini adapter, turned the car on, and turned the head unit on. No...

Right... I shal try this too if the isolator does not help. Great idea for a test! I am going to test this with my CD player and IPOD. If I can not get the noise down to a reasonable amount I may end up buying a new head unit. Crappy thing is I only bought this about a month ago. Oh well...

Out of all your steps in attempting to eliminate the noise, what did you find helped the most?

Wow very in depth and very informative responses, greatly appreciated. I will attempt to tackle this step by step to see if I can eliminate enough noise to a point where in which I (my ears) feel conformable. First step will be to pick up a ground loop isolator and see if I notice any...

I am looking to eliminate noise within my system and needs some help. When I turn on the head unit (Pioneer DEH-P4800MP) I get a sound similar to noise / high whine sound. I believe I have pretty good grounds (sanded down right to the shiny metal and using large cables). The noise I have can...

I actually do have a 4 channel amp ready to use. I am assuming 4 channels because I would require 2 channels for the tweeters and 2 channels for the 6 1/2. This sound correct?

Hi, Have a quick question concerning component speakers and the cross over. I am looking to purchase some component speakers. When install the speakers (i.e. 6 ½ and tweeter) should I use the cross over that came with it or my electronic cross over? I already have the electronic cross over...
