[QUOTE="Pookie1986, post: 963854, member: 561692"] Hows it going guys, I searched the froums to see if i could find the answer but to no avail. anyways, i seem to be having a problem with my headunit. Its a alpine 9830. Let me explain my setup then i'll explain the problem. My setup is as follows. JL Audio 500/1 Powering 2 12" JL W3v2s JL Audio 300/2 Powering a MB Quart PCE 216 6.5" Component set. I have 0 Gauge wire ran through the car with a 1 Farhid Capacitor in the back. Just so i get this across all the wiring is correct all the right amount of power is going to the amps. now on to the problem. now the subs work PERFECT, but my Mb quart set for some reason when i turn it up is clipping at higher volumes... now when i say high volumes i mean like 22, 23, 24... Now if your familiar with alpine units you know that thats like the optimum volume range, Where it doesnt sound distorted or anything. Its just when i look in the trunk at the crossovers the white fuse up top is lighting up. sometimes alot, depending on the songs and base notes. Now i've tried having the radio with a flat eq and nothing turned on.. It still does it. Then i tried tuning it everyway possible and yet it still clipped. I tried the HPFs i've tried pretty much everything. I did change my headunit for a while to a kenwood i had, and it worked great, the only thing is i really like my alpine and i would rather use it than the kenwood. Now is that clipping normal or am i doing something wrong? o and also i have the 300/2 on HP filtering, with the filter at like 120 Hertz. Some help would be greatly appreciated, cause i'm really frustrated right now... [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif[/IMG] --Pookie [/QUOTE]
