Sorry to interrupt, but what exactly is Sirius Radio, and why is it so good for "long trips"? Sounds like it has a lot of podcast type stuff. Or audio books or something. I've had 2 head units with "Sirius Radio" logo on front, but never cared. Figured anything I can get on Sirius, I could...

I had a gift card to Rockville Audio, which, according to this site (and thread: https://www.caraudio.com/threads/what-subwoofer-should-i-buy.600075/#post-8657318) Rockville is "total garbage." Well, I ended up buying a subwoofer amp there (https://www.rockvilleaudio.com/rxd-m1/ ) and a...

I'd go for the cheaper cost install. Cheaper cost does NOT mean cheap install . Do some more research, but I've found most car audio businesses, employees don't know what the hell they're talking about or if they do, they're trying to sell you, the one exception, is most of the ACTUAL car...

Just learned what a DSP is and they sound (no pun intended) awesome. But damned expensive. Sounds to me like people that buy these A. have the money and B. are next level audiophiles.

Ok so I find out the Kenwood 4ch amp has 2 ways to turn on (like most amps). If using the speaker-level inputs (no RCA) it turns on like is typical. But Since I have front and back (and woofer) RCA channel outputs on my head unit, will probably use that method, because I think it's supposed to...

So I've installed, ran wire, blah blah, on probably 5 Subwoofers for myself and friends. Have a panel removing tool and everything! Currently my setup is a Kicker CompVR 43CVR122 in a Sound Ordnance Bass Bunker 1.83 cubic feet. Woofer is 400W RMS and amp is 500W RMS. Hooked up to a Pioneer...

So I just installed a 12" Kicker CompVR 43CVR122 in a 1.8 cu. ft. ported box with a 500 RMS amp.   It's not winning any trophies, but I love it, oh god how I've missed that bass......anyway.... So I'd like to analyze the speakers (focus on sub).  I have a Macbook Pro (no PC :(   but do have...

So my amp arrived  for my single dual coil 12 inch sub and I was expecting 1 negative output and 1 positive.  But there's 2 neg, 2 pos. I'm guessing that's for the option of powering 2 speakers?  What do I do/use for just the one Subwoofer?   Thanks, sorry, amatuer.  

Thanks, yeah, I've talked to Rockville on a number of occasions, and they're customer service *****.  Miracle I could even get ahold of them as they're Jewish (NOTHING wrong with that) and seem to take EVERY SINGLE Jewish Holiday off, haha. But yeah, I am confident in the sub I chose, the amp...

This stuff should be here Friday and the enclosure I'm looking at is at the bottom... -One 12" Kicker CompR 2 ohm (https://www.kicker.com/comp-r-12-2-ohm-subwoofer)  -Rockville RXD-M1 Phenom 2000 Watt/1000w RMS Mono Class D 1 Ohm Amp  (1 Ohm: 500 Watts x 1 Channel <1% THD+N...

Yeah you're right,  I've definitely got Spotify on 320 and I don't have to do anything. So I have Pandora premium, is that 192 as well?

 negative

yes, iphone.  don't know what rooted means.  

With Pandora, Spotify, Youtube, purchased and "hard copy" music files, I've noticed it can be a real pain in the ass.  I'm always messing with the EQ and Volume and Bass Boost. It's not THAT big a deal, but still annoying. With spotify I definitely opted for the highest quality, 320kbs i...
