Im gonna be running 2 12 inch sundown audio sa v3 subs on a taramp smart 3k amp and my mids and highs on a small 4 channel amp..i keep hearing that if i upgrade my alt to get the 250 amp alt because it is more efficient at lower idle than the bigger alternators..is this true or should i go...

I'm looking to wire each sub individually to my amp but 4 ohm down to 1 ohm My amp is a ct sounds at and has 4 screw terminals Am I right by wiring one 4 ohm sub down to 1 ohm and connect it to on set of terminals at the amp and same on the adjacent sub ?

Basics - I installed a Kenwood DNX 577S head unit with Polk front and rear door speakers and a JL Audio 450/4 to power them. I also have 2 SKAR SVR 12D4 subs wired parallel / parallel going to a JL Audio RD 1500.1. I have a 350 amp alternator , done the big 3. Installed in a 07 Hummer H2. The...

It's about time for me to upgrade my setup, I have 2 Skar SDR 10"s from their loaded bass package powered by their 1200watt amp. They hit like crazy but I wanted even deeper lows with a more quality cleaner sound. While trying to remain on a budget I was looking at Rockford Fosgate but...

My 2,10s sundowns were working good and all then they shut off I was messing around trying to figure out the problem then I pushed the sub in and I felt it playing but when I took my hand off it went away I did my digging and came to the conclusion that it’s a bad tinsel but I’m not to sure When...

2004 TSX 2 x 12 Punch P3 Hifonics 3016.1 3000w amp Skar ported box Stock head unit with Bluetooth Loudest these get is 110db. I've seen a single 12 do much louder. 3/4 gain wired @ 1ohm No electrical upgrades besides additional power and ground wires. Any ideas where to start?

So I ordered a box from gp (shipping out Monday) I think I made a mistake with making my port in the center of the subs instead of to the right or left. The reason I say this is bc I run 2 12 dual 4 ohm wired down to 1 ohm so parallel/parallel but since the port is the middle the wire connecting...

From what i can see is many subwoofers advertising they are using aluminum wound voice coils, even some subs in the high end price range (north of $400). So anyone ever see copper voice coils anymore? And if it's well understood that copper is superior in any application versus aluminum...

I just installed a new ute-73bt. It replaced a cde-133. The amp and sub worked beautifully before switching the head unit. If I connect the amp to the lower, dedicated, sub rca connection I don't get any sound from the sub. If I connect the amp to the upper rcas meant for front and rear speakers...

My wife bought me 3 sundown Xv3 dual 2 ohm subs. This is my first time owning a set of higher end subs. What gauge wire would be best to wire up the subs in the box? And I have an audio control LCI2 Pro and was also considering purchasing an equalizer or the audio control epicenter to get them...

What are your opinions on these two subs? Currently running a 15 Stereo Integrity SQL and wanted to try out these two brands. For a musical sub that can get down low and nasty as hell while pounding good, would ya go for a Rockford T2 13 or the new Kicker L7x Solo 12? Current amplifier is...

I am installing 2 Rockford 15s 1 is 2 ohm DVC and 1 is 4 ohm DVC I want to wire them up to a 1 or 2 ohm load. Does any one have ideas for this? Thank you Agreater

I have a friend who is trying to just add some subs and he does not have sub outputs on this stock head unit. So wondering how we get sub outputs using an l o c. Wondering if we would just take one of the speaker cables run it to the Loc and that would split it not really sure though.

I just bought a brand new Toyota Corolla Cross but wanted to upgrade the cars audio system. I would max out the volume knob almost everyday leading to distorted music at high volume. I met with one car audio shop that says they're fine they just need an amp and a Hi low converter, and I want to...

I am thinking to get a sub or multiple for my truck, I'm wondering what would be best for playing music, mainly rap. I'm thinking an spl sub but I don't know how good that would sound for music. whatever I buy I would build a box to spec for. budget is about 400-700 CAD. Thanks

I am able to fit a 32 x 15 x 18 box in my car. I would like to build a custom ported enclosure. I am going to run either a sundown 1500 watt sub or 2 750 watt ones. I know that cone area significantly increases sound but also iI would have to make a larger port cutting down on my usable cubic...

Hi all, my 2 12” Kicker 10C124 are not moving together. They’re in a shared airspace sealed box. Both are working and they’re not dangerously out of phase afaik (but I’m new to car audio), you can just see one is moving a little different. They’re powered at 2 ohms by a Alpine MRP-M450 mono amp...

HI I got 2x15 targa in my boot want to add 2x12 targa on my backboard space. The car is a Mercedes sedan with alot off space. Give me a opinion.

I got 2 audiopipe txx-bdc2-12 subs that I need to box using 3/4 board. Im putting them in a 2010 dodge journey. Each speaker will be wired to their own boss ar2000m mono amps. Can anyone tell me if the attached file is a good box design for them or what would be ideal?

So I blew my 10” alpine type r subs being a dumbass, any recommendations on 2 10s I should get. I was thinking about getting 3 8s from scar. I want something that hits deep. Please let me know

Just got a new (used) car after having my parked car get totaled by a drunk. It’s a 2011 Toyota Camry XLE V6. I’ve never had a factory amp and I’m surprised by how loud the jbl system gets even without a sub. I’m disappointed that the “8 speaker”system is actually only 6. In the coming days I...

So I've had this problem for a couple months now, I've got 2x12 inch MTX Terminator subs (I know they're not the greatest) and every few weeks, usually when a song has some hard low frequency bass, the fuse that is connected to the power wire under my hood will blow, causing the subs to stop...

So I don’t know why or how but when I plug both rcas into the amp they distort the sub and when I have only one it will play one sub crystal clear and I don’t know what to do from here any help would be appreciated thanks

I have a 2011 Silverado crew cab, I’m undecided to on what size and brand of subs that I should put on my truck. Also what 6 1/2” speakers do you recommend. I want some nice deep bass and a clean sound. Thanks for your recommendations.

I'm looking to put a system in a 1989 GMC k1500 short box regular cab, but of course being a single cab it makes it much harder to find decent subs due to the limited space. I was thinking 4 12' shallow mounts behind the seat as there should be enough room along with some skar audio super...
