skar audio

So I have a Skar audio 4500.1D amplifier https://www.skaraudio.com/products/skv2-4500-1d-monoblock-subwoofer-car-amplifier And the bass knob came with a clip light, and doing some test with it, the light comes on way before the subs start audibly clipping, should I trust the light or audibly?

Thinking of using it for a JL 10W7 Sub with a 750 RMS @ 3 OHM

So I have a 2015 Honda Accord LX model with a stock stereo. I installed a 12 inch sub in a custom box with a 2000 watt mono block. I was setting my gains using a multimeter and when I played a 30 hz test tone I noticed a substantialy less value in voltage than with a 40 hz test tone. I've done...

Hey guys, about a week ago (queue Bobby Shmurda meme) I noticed my sub amp start to cut in and out at high volumes. This happened for a few days, then my 4 channel started to do the same. Not to long after, on cranking the car up I read 13.8V. My normal is 14.2v. Slowly turning the music up...

I have a skar rp800.1d amp running off stock electrical at 14.24 volts dc at 40hz but without having bass boost on I’m reading pretty low in ac volts coming out of the speaker outputs. But with bass boost on and using ohms laws I’m showing around 800 watts to my sub at 1ohm. And I know bass...

So I’m 18 and my brother gave me 2 alpine 10” sun type r he got them a long long long time ago so they are the older model or whatever. I got a skar 1500 watt amp and a 4 gauge 1500 wiring kit. I hooked it up and it worked really good and was super loud at first. But no I hear like a lil popping...

this is what i’m working with! i’m not sure how to wire it up to get the right ohms or anything along those lines can someone help me out by answering these questions? will this amp support the sub? is the capisitor going to effect my sub or be beneficial? can you draw a wiring diagram to send...

Hi, I recently got my Skar audio SDR 12s installed at my local audio shop. I went through a 1 month break in period before actually turning them up. The gain on the Skar Aduio 1500 amp is set by the audio shop at about a little under 3/4 of the way. I had the bass knob turned half way when the...

I’m looking into getting the Skar audio dual 12s 2400 watt or the dual 15s 2400. Considering that they will be ran on the same amp at the same wattage. Which would give me more bass? Since the 15s are more expensive, I could just get the 15s with door speakers or I could get the 12s and door...

I just got a skar audio VVX-D4 10" I have 600rms (35v) at 2 ohm, and the sub still barely moves. it needs broken in but I still feel it should be moving a lot more, the box is a little big but I think the cone should still move a lot more. any advise or information on this?

any advise will help please! I'm new hear, and I've built musical and loud boxes before but this time I'm stumped. on the skar audio website it recommends a 1.75ft3 ported box, and the spec sheet I got recommends a .98ft3 (28L) ported box. ajdesign software sort of validates the spec sheet at...
