    can i figure a 2nd Powered sub from the same source channel?

    No different than powering multiple amps. I'd use a fused distribution block. Power each amp. Probably easiest to just add that to the existing power cable. Then run 2 shorter to each amp. Keep the same thickness. RCA's just use a splitter. Are you using a remote line or the signal sensing...

    Whining Coming From 1 Speaker

    I'm getting a whining noise from my one speaker anytime something in the truck activates. When lights are triggered to turn on. Happens when the Smart Key gets in the proximity. Sounds is always there when the truck is on. Also hear it after shutting the truck off and the dome lights turn on...

    FEATURED Hooptie Scion TC build

    Consider a wireless adapter? I have Android, grabbed an AAWireless and it's been flawless. AAWireless has more intuitive options. But there should be something out there for iPhones.

    Full screen Android mirroring

    That has to do with Samsung Knox or whatever. They've been making it more difficult not supporting each other's protocols. Don't think Knox is really necessary on a phone. Might have to deactivate it. It limits output. Android itself does that, Samsung adds their own touch. Sometimes when it...

    Anroid Auto and Kenwood DNX997XR Navigation problems

    I was gonna say the same thing. Possible water damage. Even enough condensation could do it. Do the physical buttons work while it's acting up? Another thing that causes capacitive screens to act up like is stuff on the screen. Try cleaning it with a alcohol pad. Any moisture, oils or grease...

    Remote Line for Amp - Sony XAV AX8100 and PAC RP4.2-TY11

    Yeah, I got all of what you're saying. I guess I'm really looking for where I would run that wire from. Yes, I have a Sony XAV-AV8100 install. It has the PAC RP4.2-TY11 wired to it. It was bundle and pre-wired so it would be PnP. Went that route since it was the same as if I did it myself. I...

    Remote Line for Amp - Sony XAV AX8100 and PAC RP4.2-TY11

    I guess I'm just having trouble understanding where the source is to run to the amp. I'll be adding an amp/sub. RCA's available on the back of the head unit. So run those. Then power to the amp. So then would the amp need the remote still? If it doesn't have signal sensing... Where would I get...

    Rockford Fosgate P3SD2-8 - Wiring - Factory JBL

    Anyone familiar with the wiring schematics of the JBL amplified systems? Not sure if I wired this correctly. Was aiming for 2Ω assuming the factory amplifier outputs a 2Ω load. Comparing with the wiring wizard on the RF site, I didn't see one that matched...

    Factory Amplified Impedance and Speakers

    Have a Toyota Tacoma with the JBL system. I know the factory JBL speakers are around 2 Ω. Is it the JBL amplifier that dictates the impedance requirement from the speakers? So if I swap head units and leave in the JBL system, how would you select speakers? I'm thinking since the JBL stuff...

    Full screen Android mirroring

    It doesn't do full mirroring with the app? Can you explain what you mean by small version? Do you mean it just shows vertical and black on the sides? What phone are you using? Could just be auto-rotate or orientation lock is on. Worst case if it's the limitation of the app... You can add...

    Remote Line for Amp - Sony XAV AX8100 and PAC RP4.2-TY11

    Looking for a remote line to run to an amp. Been a while since I had some audio stuff. Just swapped some speakers and threw in a head unit while retaining the factory JBL amplified stuff. Just want to leave it there for convenience. Figured I'd just add an underseat sub/amp to keep it simple...

    Looking for a Head Unit

    I have a 2019 Toyota Tacoma. Unfortunately I had to get the JBL Premium package because there was something else that required that package to be on the truck. Me being stubborn, I thought maybe I would benefit from upgrading the speakers and it would be good enough. During that time, I sound...
