    Iphone killed my rear speakers. I replaced speakers and they still sound blown.

    OK, I just took some of my good speaker wire, removed my passenger seat, connected one of my new speakers to the rear channel on the left and it was clear. I then put it on the ;left channel and it still sounds horrible. So it seems it is a bad amplifier. It was from mid 2000s, so I got my...

    Iphone killed my rear speakers. I replaced speakers and they still sound blown.

    OK, I have a long story. Please bear with me. I have a 2011 Camry Hybrid that came stock with the JBL sound system. In 2015 I bought it used. I replaced the whole sound system as the front window tweeters blew out when I bought the car in 2015. I had them take my old system from my old car...

    I'm buying my Brother-in-Law's 2011 Toyota Camry Hybrid tomorrow. I think it has the JBL sound system. The front seems to have 6x6 component system with tweeters in the dash and some 6x9 in the rear back window. I am keeping the stereo from the Elantra in my sig. But I don't have the read...

    2008 Elantra system upgrade.

    I'm going to my brother-in-law's this coming weekend and he's going to try and do it for me. As for the subsonic filter, how can I set it on my HU? What would be an optimal setting?

    2008 Elantra system upgrade.

    I keep changing the x-over on my HU and I think it is at 125hz. The lower I set it, the worse it gets. It goes down to 40Hz IIRC. Sadly I can't get access to my amp. It is under my seat and facing the tunnel down the center and is unreadable. My amp says subsonic filter is 16hz. I don't...

    2008 Elantra system upgrade.

    Sorry for late update, but the sound is very good. However the bass seems too low or something. It sounds like it's freaking out on low notes, kind of a rattling type sound. especially on the radio. Maybe it is the static causing it? or the poor radio signal? I also can't turn it up past...

    2008 Elantra system upgrade.

    I'm having an issue with my electrical in my car. Lately my battery can't seem to stay charged. When idling it gets so low it causes my fan to go very low and on a couple of occasions caused my stereo to shut off like it's not getting enough power. Yesterday when I started my car it barely...

    Not necessarily, just local store has it and I can check it our before buying. A better return policy as well. But I'm still undecided.

    2008 Elantra system upgrade.

    Sounds good. I'll make sure to pull the amp and set it to full. I may even have the amps mounted in the truck for easy access. Under $500 for sub, so I'll have money left over for a custom box, wiring kit, and move both amps to the truck where they belong. They were supposed to be installed...

    Any advice on a good sub for a limit under $500 and 600-watt @ 2-ohms? Is this JL Audio sub any better? 12W6v3-D4 - Car Audio - Subwoofer Drivers - W6v3 - JL Audio
