i just put in some pioneer 6x9s in my car and they sound like a cross between a subwoofer with no crossover and a tweeter..... no bass at all either. the factory speakers sounded much better. what a waste of money

bad amp
foolioGrimz replied to foolioGrimz's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
the "incedent" happened in another vehicle. and the amp is running 4 ohms so thats not the problem. I dont think its the RCA's but im not too sure. The previous vehicle it was in I used different RCA's than the one its in now. oh yeah and it started cutting out if I turned the volume on the stereo down too low but it gradually kept doing it until it now it doesnt matter how strong of a signal its getting. the amp is no where near overheating and Its never overheated b4 no matter how hot it was in the vehicle and how loud I bumped it. I think I remember the power light going off when it happened, no protection lights turned on. My Pioneer HU got jacked awhile back so I have no way of testing it out again until I get something else set up. Im trying to decide if im gonna sell it or save it to build a different system later on. -
my xplod amp cuts in and out. I think it might have something to do with the remote since over a year ago the insulation rubbed off the wire and it came into contact with metal and burned all the insulation off. it didnt work for maybe a week, then when I tried it again it started working but it was real quiet then started working like normal. could it be fixed and how much would it cost? its a sony xplod 1600-GSD (i think) Class D mono amp

AmplifierIs turning off
foolioGrimz posted a topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Ive got a class D Mono amp that keeps shutting off while playing music. before It used to do it if there was a weak signal but now its starting to do it no matter what. I have to turn off the HU then turn it back on to get the amp working again. In the last vehicle it was in the remote wire was connected to a fuse under the dash and the wire's insulation rubbed off somewhere. the wire touched metal on the vehicle and burned out the wire. for a while the amp wouldnt even play any music but then started workign again. btw, that happened almost exactly a year ago... had the amp for 1 1/2 years & i bass it everyday -

no one? I posted it on a car audio forum and didnt get 1 reply.... could running too thick a wire on the remote have anything to do with it? if its something in the amp, is it fixable? I paid $350 for it and looking at RF amps but I really cant afford to replace it right now. -
zane, dont hear that name much. last guy I knew with that name was a dealer..

how much do these alternators usually cost?

how hard is it to glass a box? getting it shaped right, determining the volume ect. and how much would it cost? eventually I want to make a custom box amp rack and I'll be running a brahma if I can find a second job for the $$$

my PS2 got jacked the other day. found a kitchen window unlocked maybe how they got in. -
well actually stock head units are ok for just listening to music, but imo aftermarkets are better. equalizers pre-amps... stuff like that.

how do you mod them to be stable at .5 ohms? -
just wondering how reliable pioneer HU's are at puting our rated power :ph34r: Ive got it installed in my 92 grand am. it runs for as much as $193 on yahoo shopping, but i bought it off some guy on FXN for 115 shipped. edit: i just read that its rated at 22 watts rmsX4. only the two rear speakers work and its pretty loud. wonder how loud it'd get with new speakers and an amp B) edit found 1 on ebay thats factory remanufactured for $129 starting bid and its not too bad of a head unit for a poor man like me

IS there a 15" magnum left??????????
foolioGrimz replied to stangme01's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
I dont suppose you guys are looking for anyone to sponsor? Once people in south texas see what one of your 15s in a ported box can do, they'll go crazy for em. and there's not any place to buydecent car audio anywhere near hear unless your talking about a best buy. actually one of my dreams in life is to open a car audio store and also sell online. and Trust me, any place around here seriously overprices their merchandise.
