    What is the best sub?

    Apperantly, everyone seemed to forget that you'll be installing this in a boat which means you should be looking at a sub that performs well in a vented enclosure. The bass will be louder in an open area such as a boat and vented enclosures are much more efficient than sealed ones allowing you...

    Funky Pups

    I read in an article that in the movie Oceans 11, the EMP bomb in the back of that van was actually a FunkyPup all dressed up. And there was no need for special effects. Thats really what happens when you phase test a FunkyPup with a drill battery!!!

    2 PPI amps or 1 PPI amps????

    You're always better off limiting the number of electronics in a car audio system. As far back as I can remember, PPI was the best at playing the impedence game allowing some amp to be dropped to 1/4ohm!!! I would wire the subs to 1 amp and make sure the load will bring the most out of that amp.

    HELP PLEASE!! New Batt+ New H.O. ALT= WORSE DIMMING pics included

    When I say "installed', I mean along the lines of wiring and whether or not the right rague wire was used. If you can provide us with the spec on the alt, it might point toward an obvious problem such as X amperage at Y RPM.

    HELP PLEASE!! New Batt+ New H.O. ALT= WORSE DIMMING pics included

    To SNB778: Possible issues- 1. HO Alt wasn't installed correctly. 2. HO Alt has a regulator on it that is keeping it from melting your factory wiring because the gague is too small. 3. Double check your ground to your amp. Increasing the amperage means the ground is going to be tested at...

    Help me Convince my friend he's making a bad choice

    I would just suggest using an all digital amp but go with 2 12w0's instead.. they are way more efficient than class a/b amps and shouldn't put too much of a strain on the electrical system.

    High Volt Hu's

    Overall, the noise floor is severely lowered because like everyone said, the gains on the amp don't have to be turned up as much. As far as actualy SQ, the Eclipse decks used to have 55ohm output impedence on their 8v decks, not sure if they still do. Output impedence is more important than...
