I remember a few years ago looking at the Rockford Fosgate 360 DSP that was able to be wirelessly controlled via Bluetooth, but it required a windows ce device. Is there anything out there that accepts toslink optical input, and has the ability to be controlled from a cellphone app? Just for...

Thanks for the information, I appreciate it. Still waiting to hear from tech support. I tried hooking it up to a PC before I installed it in the car, and standard USB wouldn't power it up. Then I figured it just needed 12v and ground so I used an old computer power supply to give it power and...

Trying to install a JL fix 82, which has dc off set and signal sense. But when I hook up 12v and ground it doesn't auto turn on, so it needs a ACC or switched 12v lead like a remote for an amp. But if I do wire it that way, what's the sense of having DC offset and signal sense? Am I missing...

My brother just got a 2002 Mercedes ML320 with the Bose upgrade and the stock COMMAND Radio. There is a seperate Bose sub underneath the driver seat. I am going to be putting a subwoofer amp in his truck, but I am not sure where to get the signal from. From what I understand the Bose system in...

I know that. I was saying the difference between the two SERIES not the two SPEAKERS in particular. Basically I am wanting to know if its worth the upgrade from my older Type R's to the newer Type R's. I know the ones I have do have the bigger magnet, but the newer ones have something called...

Thank you all for the very quick and great information!

Currently have a Alpine MRP-m500 amp running a JL Audio 10w6v2 and I am looking to upgrade to a JL Audio 10w7. My question is will the Alpine amp be able to handle the 10w7? The 10w7 is 3ohm and all the stuff I read about the Alpine is its either 4ohm or 2ohm, and I cant find anybody online...

The SPR-60 are not components, they are coaxial just like SPR-17C.

I currently have the older SPR-17C Type R two ways installed in my car and recently saw the newer model SPR-60 and SPR-60C series. My big question is, is there a big difference between the two series of Alpine Type R speakers? I haven't found any reviews online, and they are not in my local...

I have a Chevy Trailblazer SUV, Computer as a Radio Headunit (using the onboard soundcard 3.5mm > RCA), Alpine MRP-F300 powering four Alpine SPR-17C 2-Way door speakers. Also have a MRP-M500 powering a JL Audio 10w6v2. I have been very happy with my speakers and setup, and now I have a...

Whoa now, be careful! USB is not 12 volts like our cars are, USB is 5 volts....and usually regulated for cellphones and iPods and such. If your just extending from a radio USB cable, then you'll be fine. But if your trying to get a USB port dedicated to just charge your devices, then your gonna...

I have a 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer LS, Computer as HeadUnit, Four SPR-17C Alpine 2-Ways in the doors pushed by a Alpine MRP-F300 amp, and a JL Audio 10w6v2 pushed by a Alpine MRP-M500. My battery is a Super Start Extreme 34/78EXTAGM Yellow Top. I have had this setup for a pretty long time...

I have one JL Audio 10inch 10w1v2-4 sub, and I wanted to buy a Alpine Mrp-M500 amp for it, the amp is about 300watt RMS and according to Crutchfield, this sub can handle 300watt RMS and peak at 600watts.... My question, is everybody's opinion, on the combination of the two. Is it too much...

I have four SPR-17c Two-Way type R Alpine speakers, running on a Alpine MRP-F300 amp. At the moment, they are hooked up to each individual channel and running at 50x4. From what I understand, I can get 75 watts per channel if I hook them up in 2ohm mode. I do not know how to do that? As far...
