when you mean upgrade all the other wires you mean the amp wires could running 8awg for amp power and ground deter the extra power from getting through it -

im very new to car audio. my problem lies with when my volume of the HU is all the way to zero and i go to my subs there is a faint noise its hard to explain well it's kinda like a hum or a buzz but very quite i tried the ground loop fix by grounding my rca's to the HU and that helped a bit since the noise was louder before and that got rid of it then i found a better bolt for my amp ground so it was more secure and that did not help. so idk what could be the problem. my setup with the problem HU: pioner DEH x3500ui subwoofer: one kenwood kfc w3013ps other sub is unknown i was told from the seller it was an older kenwood but im thinking it is a home thearter subwoofer. AMP: Kenwood x1200m refurb from ebay. the power and ground wires for the amp is 8 awg. Vehicle: 2000 toyota camry le anything else you need to know let me know

Onlything in the stock location is the Batt neg To engine so what I did was I left the original batt To chassis in the connection with the new batt neg To chassis so it would help with the greater through put it will have To deal with Could a loose connection of the headunit Wired To the cara wiring harness make it drain a little more power To the amp -

what about optima red top or yellow top i was thinking shuriken i think it was the bt35 or 45 i was thinking of getting since it was in my price range just heard that some car audio batteries are not good to use as the under the hood battery due to the heat that is generated from the engine -
why thank you sir

i like the color of it. so they are like the boss amps and some other company i can't remember. then i guess its off to try and find a new company to go with. i want to find a sub that has some coolness with a little color and a design on it.

Don't do that. Someone of your skill level should not even attempt something like that. im not gonna be making the bracket my friends uncle will make it for me since he owns his own autoshop so he could let me know if it would be worth it to make the bracket. so i should just replace the battery with a better one. to help aid in the more power the alt ca supply -

Light dimming is not always a sign of low voltage although it is often a telltale sign. Some headlights are very sensitive to any voltage draw and even though voltage is quite stable E the extreme draw of a system can cause dimming. That said in your case knowing how you have the subs wired to the amp (ohm load) would give some insight on power you are running. If you are running that amp at 2 or 1 ohm you Are for sure at the max of your 8 gauge power wire, even 4 ohms might be pushing it on 8 gauge for that amp. Another issue I see with your system is the miss matched subs which will cause wiring issues and also sound like crap compared to one sub in a proper box. could upgrading the better to a more "powerful" battery in a sense of store more power like a nice $150 battery and i plan to replace that other unknown sub with the same w3013ps when i have the money after i have pay the bills. -

the car it came from had 107K miles on it so maybe i will get it tested to double check if it can hold a charge. if it does not pass with flying colors i will just turn it in for a core charge and get a new one but i might even add the original alt to the loop so it will help each other out just don't want to overload the stock battery. -
why thank you
