    New Car, Moving system to it.

    It'll give me the dash kit for free but they still wanna charge me like $90 for the wiring harness and antenna adaptors

    New Car, Moving system to it.

    Moving my system to my new car soon, i plan on reusing all my old wiring and stuff like that. Only thing i want to buy new is an alpine 9886 head unit, the wiring harness, and the dash kit (so like 350$ for all that). besides that, is there any little things i might be missing or forgetting that...

    1900 watts.....

    Yea i figured i was going to get a kinetik but which one? HC2000? When it says 2000 watts what does that mean in terms of the battery? That it packs enough power to power 2000 watts for 10 minutes or somethign?

    1900 watts.....

    I did the big 3 upgrade, and i have a 110amp alternator and only 1 battery in my car. I'm going to be running 1900 watts. Well between 1900 and 2100. I really don't want to upgrade the alternator because i'll be getting a new car soon probably around April 2010. Do I need an extra battery? What...

    Setting the Gain Settings Properly....

    I set my components up by ear but it's very hard for me to here distorted bass. The way i did it should be fine though? This is my amp. You guys are talking about the input sensitivity right? I have it set on the middle setting (.6v-2v) and my headunit has 3x 2volt outputs(webpage on kenwoods...

    Setting the Gain Settings Properly....

    Ok i did that and it sounded quite low, so i decided to try a few loud bass songs. I did some jeezy stuff, too short, and lil jon, none of them were hitting above 34 volts which on my setup is Volts= SQRT( watts*ohms) So 34^2= 1156/4ohms=289 watts?! So i raised the gains so it was hitting...

    Setting the Gain Settings Properly....

    well last time i didnt do any measuring and used a different amp. Is it ok for the numbers to go higher than the numbers at the tested frequency? Do those numbers mean the amp is really getting that many watts? Also i wanted to test my friends car cause he has two kicker 12" subs, fairly cheap...

    Setting the Gain Settings Properly....

    I've read quite a few guides and they're all a bit confusing. I'm Trying to set the gains on an amp for a sub and it needs to be set to push 850 watts. I used this guide to do it how it's set now, but then someone told me i shouldn't used a tone like -6 and instead should have been 0 So i used...
