wiring

Not experienced with this all, a friend is helping me out for the most part, but we need to know the speaker wire colors. I've looked up several diagrams and found a bunch of info on the colors, but they don't match up at all. I've been seeing the following everywhere: Left Front Speaker...

I JUST FIXED IT NO NEED TO REPLY I recently bought a dual dc505ibt stereo. So I wired the harness following this diagram http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk169/c627627/AudioWiring.jpg It was the only diagram I could find that seemed to match my car, however there where no pink/purple wires...

Hello All: I own a 2003 Toyota Avalon with the Premium JBL Audio System installed, which includes an 8" subwoofer installed in the area over the trunk. When I received the vehicle, the subwoofer rattled, which I discovered was a common problem. I ordered a re-coning kit, and followed the...

Is it possible to wire 12 dual 4 ohm subs to one monoblock amp and get a final impedance of 1 ohm or 2 ohms?? If so how would i do this?

Hello, my friend just replaced her head unit in her 2002 Toyota Camry. After a few problems, and then troubleshooting them, we have almost got it all hooked up right. Except that the ground isn't connected, but the head unit still powers on.... anyone know why this would be happening??

So this is what I've got along with approximately 15 feet of speaker wire. Amp is Hifonics Glx1400.1D, and subs are Pioneer TS-W3003D4 (Dual 4-ohm). How do I wire these to one ohm when the box has terminals? Every diagram I see has amp wired straight to subs and doesn't have terminals . Also...

First time installer here. I've finished "prepping" the front stage (i.e. installed Dynamat in the front doors on the outer and inner skins and ran RF wiring from the Front doors to the trunk where the amp will go). So it's time to install the components and I was wondering if I should use the...

Im thinking of adding a second battery but don't want to buy an isolator if i don't have to. Could I have the relay connect the two batteries when the car is on, and then disconnect them when the car is off? Will this work in the same way an isolator does? imgur: the simple image sharer Also...

So i'm looking to go to 0 gauge wiring from my 4 gauge because I'm going to start running amp at 1 ohm (1400w rms) and will probably upgrade in the future so might as well get it out of the way now. I was looking on sonic and it seems for every wiring kit there are people saying that it isn't...

So I decided to redo my wiring, really just reorganize it. I began doing all this without disconnecting the negative on the battery because I was fairly confident that I wasn't going to short anything out and didn't want to have to reset all my settings on the headunit. Before we begin, it's...

Would it be possible to run to amps of 10 power wire? I have looked it up on the internet and have been getting mixed responses some people are telling me that you can if you have the right gauge wire and other people are saying never to do this so I'm wondering if it is possible and if it is...

The title is pretty self-explanatory for this thread. Just wondering what everyone's take is of the different brands of amp kits out there. I only ask because of a crappy install I had done at Oxford Auto Sound (in Toronto) in which they used a generic off-brand to wire my system in my Civic...

Ok so here is a weird one for you guys. Just recently one of the channels on my 4 channel alpine amp seems to cut out. when it does it is accompanied by some very loud static by its paired speaker. The weird part is it fixes itself if i hit the lock/unlock button on my door panel. Not...

I'm kinda a noob and I was wondering if there is a way to wire my 3 kicker svc comps to one 2 channel amp without damaging the amp. I know it can be done with dvc subs but what about svc.Also as Ill advised as it is, two of them are 12s and one is a 10, I've seen it done at a few car shows and...

Can an oxidized power and ground wire cause an amp to turn on but not play sound? Because the amp I have hooked up right now, the light indicating that the amp is on is on and the protection light is not but I'm not getting any sound or anything going to any of the two speakers or subwoofer...

Ok, so pretty much what is in my signature sums up everything I have purchased so far for my 1st every sound system. I'm not sure what to buy next really. People have been saying amp kits, wiring, RCA's, but I'm unsure of what I need or should buy for good SQ. I apologize, but this is the...
