Is this a good amp wiring kit for this amp?
///M5 replied to Florida_Audio's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
CEA compliant testing is a joke too, still not a real standard. Better than nothing, but again stop worrying about numbers that you don't understand at all and instead focus on getting a reputable amp.- 29 replies

Thanks for the headsup

Ohio. Figured shipping on 10' poles isn't cost justafiable, but perhaps I am wrong??
-
Thanks for the headsup, still should be okay with LED's no? Should I stick to white light instead of RGB or is it just a little browning?

anyone know where i can buy clear pvc in Minny? https://www.clearpvcpipe.com/clear-pvc-pipe/schedule-40-clear-pipe.html Just smaller stuff. Thinking about making some outdoor LED's and want a more squirrel proof setup than loose wire or soft plastic hose. https://www.clearpvcpipe.com/clear-pvc-pipe/schedule-40-clear-pipe.html

The noise floor in your car is ridonkulous compared to a dedicated listening room. You won't hear a difference between A/B or D or T, there is no real standard for testing power or reporting it at a certain voltage and companies are shady, once you've got enough power so you aren't railing the rails you'll have plenty of dynamics. So sure, when in doubt go for more power but don't buy a piece of crap. I have zero experience with new Pio amps. Had 4 that fail (circa 1994ish) quickly, but that was a long time ago and is irrelevant other than it means I still don't buy them personally.- 29 replies

Please help me understand t/s parameters and making a good choice

Will be no more weather proof than the sub itself. My boat speakers are exposed to the direct sun and rain for 5 months out of the year... The one advantage in that context would be that it would be invisible, but will sound worse. Ported Xcon ftw. -
I'd stay away from garbage speakers and extra crossovers especially when they are shitty. More drivers usually makes a worse speaker not a better one. GRS are chinese built crap. Don't bother. I've not seen a Dayton full range I'd run either. You need to decide where you want to install before what. You are shopping backwards again...

NO, DO NOT BUY AN AMP THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE RMS LISTED. NEVER EVER!! I understand you want to buy what you thought you found and were looking for re-assurance on a car audio forum, but you won't get it and if you keep asking the same question trying to force an answer that will never come people will stop reading your threads and taking you seriously. We can't help you, only you can help you and it is starting to seem like you don't want help. Please prove me wrong. -

You will hear absolutely no difference between 65w and 110w RMS. There are a ton of good brands. Just don't buy ANY that advertise max. That is crap. And you NEVER look at the max watts. Easy enough to say that a 50w RMS amp makes 1000w peak and make it happen, but it will net you nothing positive in the sound. Power also tells you jack about the battery or wiring size, at least not without a stated efficiency. You need to stop looking at ANY numbers pretty much. Reputable products that are built well and will be serviced are the target, not some marketing bullshit numbers.- 29 replies

Awesome! ....but you forgot the intercooler

That only works for me if it is in the top 5 most recent posts. Of course I can go into the section it is in and click on it, but I generally read/skim all new posts and miss a ton now that the read new post section is dominated by feeds

Bandpass boxes unless mounted remotely are a stupid fad. 99.9% of the time they are misused. Unless you have a logical reason to need one a ported box will be better In every way -

Ha. I've seen manufacturers claim 150w peak on a 10w rms amp. Shady bullshit. Either way don't buy that Crap and STOP thinking you need 100w for your speakers as that is irrelevant as well. Just buy good amp.- 29 replies

3.5s will require a tweet if you can't get 100% on axis. And yes bass is cheap and easy....

What happens when you hit the unread content button? I see 70 rss feeds an 3 posts

I'd bet if you plotted average traffic per day since they came on you'd see a downward trend.

Does everyone else have to sort through the 10 million News Feeds per day? If noobs have to see all these I see no way at all that the site will ever grow. Looks like we are marketing for RSS and not SSA. Personally I'd shut them off or at least hide them. I realize they may up the search engine possibilities, but feel they will turn off more than the opposite. Now if everyone else doesn't see a proliferation of them all the time ignore the statement above.

Perhaps a planned layout would answer your question. Everything is specific to YOUR car so generically answering if a kit is okay isn't going to help. Hopefully one of these times you read YOUR you will finally get it. -
It has been closed a lot lately, but easy enough to find out

Solid would be an understatement. He could do a lot more if it weren't at the end of a 3 hour lifting marathon. He calls himself a monster....and is.
