I figured out you have to plug it into the front aux port not the back mic port. Duh.

Yeah I've been tuning this thing for a long time. Keeps getting better every time. I set it to 24 db but can't really tell the difference. It does seem much better when I drop the LPF down to 50 hz instead of 80 though. I'm still getting great bass out of my mids and the subs seem a lot cleaner...

Cool, thanks. Yeah it doesn't sound good to me when I overlap or underlap. The slopes I don't feel I understand very well either. They're all at default I think that's 12 db. I guess I read 24 on all of them except high HPF set to 18 db. would that be good?

Would anyone mind checking this to make sure I set it up right? I think I understand it but not completely sure. I believe doing it this way leave no gaps? LPF 80hz Mid HPF 80hz Mid LPF 4khz High HPF 4khz

So I broke the microphone that came with it and need to autotune it. I have a mic with a 2.5 mm jack but it just says ERR:MIC check which the manual says means it can't detect it. Anyone know if there is any microphone I can use with this besides the original?

Well it came back again. Volume dropped and voltage went down to 11.9. Guess it wasn't the battery.

Installed the diehard platinum. Voltage never goes below 13.7 now. Volume issue is gone. Headlights still get dimming though. Guess I need a second battery though maybe.

I tried that battery from oreilly's but it doesn't fit unfortunately. I think I'm just going to go full "heavy metal" on the battery and get a diehard platinum. Yeah it's more pricey but the specs on it are awesome and they have it in stock at my local sears.

So I just let my car sit idle in driveway for 10 minutes with the stereo cranked up. The voltage from alternator stayed at 14.1 but my head unit is now reading 11.9. I think it's the battery.

I'm also a little confused by the batteries. All the Sams clubs by me do not sell them. It looks like oreillys does have them but there are many different models. Is there one that would be ideal specifically? How about this one? Super Start Platinum 34RPLT - Battery | O'Reilly Auto Parts

That wire is not cheap, what gauge are you using? Also I thought you needed an isolator?

I tested the alternator, at least the only test I know how to do. It's putting out 14.1 volts with everything turned off. I turned on headlights, AC, and stereo and it just stayed at 14.1 volts. Not really sure what that means but it seems like it's putting out a good amount of voltage.

Ok thanks for all the things to try. I think I'm going to start with a good AGM battery and go from there. The thing is that my battery will literally last for 2 minutes with the stereo on and completely drain my battery if the car is not running so I think it is starting to go bad. I will get...

Cool thanks. Would I really even need to bolt the false floor down? It seems like it would hold in place if I shaped it the same way the wafer board is.
