[QUOTE="geriatricjlhits, post: 6413837, member: 615911"] Clipping (or sounds of farting through sub box in certain songs, or tones) is occurring, and even after having a alpine mrp 1000 amp, a jl w3v3 dual subs from a very well know distributor of high end audio, and a alpine 9886 head unit, all are under one month. old. Previously had a dual jl w1 and 500 watt system. I have called the dealer of the jl box, and the amplifier distributor, and each plot me against the other blaming issues. I need an intelligent person, or technician that can be honest about how to do something. I am alot older than most that would listen, much less own high end audio, but shortly after getting the alpine 1000 amp, I noticed that clipping occurs and sounds very damaging, but the OHM load is still between 1.8 and 2.0 on subs. I have four gage wires installed on the system. But, I have not done the big three upgrade, and I know a CAP will not make a difference. my alternator is ONLY putting out 80 amps (wimpy) and there is no aftermarket alternator that will work on a 1999 Nissan sentra, 1.6, gxe. I need to know when using a bass mekanik CD, playing one or two songs, the why and how to solve the clipping on brand new gear.
