no. i did not say that. i even gave you a super dumbed down link to help get your head around how an amplifier works. You are in the wrong field of AMPLIFIER REPAIR as you are asking what simple resistor/capacitor circuit components are. This post belongs in AAC. ( all about circuits. com; im a...

I hate to be the bad guy, but if you dont know what those components are, your in the wrong field. I get it. some people have held a soldering iron, made a simple repair and had success. Amp repair is a different story unfortunately. If your still interested, this is the best help i can give:

Its ok tbh. i have one, and figured it out. Ive never tested it head to head with a legit scope for accuracy, but for my sub amp, it works great for a re-purposed mp3 player at $60

Thanks for the reply. Ive been eyeing the 4500 tbh.. hence why i asked a few questions in the first post, to ensure im not throwing cash away

i have a couple audio shops not very close to me, but they are too pushy on there **** imo. wanna sell my anything i can carry out like im a simpleton lol. that said, thats why im asking here. looking for advice, and user feedback for recommendations. Im only running a 4ch amp(not active), and...

Howdy all. Looking for a 2dinn touchscreen, and had a few questions. 1) is the "gps integrated" head units worth the extra $300-400? - Im assuming android auto does the same from my phone. Am i missing something here or is these gps units a dying breed? 2) Capacitive vs Resistive? i know the...

have you checked sundowns website? they have free "suggested" box plans. maybe they will fit the bill

Thats a great way to have a dead battery after you "forget" to turn them off lol. in the 2 wire world, relay is the way to go imo

I just looked up a "stinger" volt meter, and seen most have 3 wires! thats the reason i wasnt getting it. I only have 2 wire voltage gauges, hence my diagram in post #2, and the 3 wire has its own turn on. Sorry Popwarhomie, wasnt trying to be a d*ck,

Not sure i follow.. I assumed you were using the remote terminal, and ground to turn on the voltmeter when i wrote the comment above. Otherwise, you would use Batt and gnd from amp which will keep the meter on until battery is depleted. How are you sure that the remote voltage coming from the...

ive always added a relay to my volt meters, as i really dont care what the headunit output voltage is, as it may not always be the same as the Battery/amp terminal. I dont know if there is any influence such as capacitance that can give a false reading from what amp actually is seeing. better...

any car parts shop like autozone will have one if you want it today. guessing $7? or i buy them in bulk so i have extra for a couple bucks more...

Wire it like this: https://ibb.co/ypYdxyy Best i can do for ya, im at work.

Thank you for the reply. Im more interested in a nav unit, thats not android. From what ive seen, Android auto is a "assistant" with a boring interface? Please correct me if im wrong! Can someone give me the pros of android auto?

Maybe this was a stupid question, as 49 views and no recommendations?  What "product" will it take to make my steering wheel controls work with an aftermarket headunit?
