    Maybe when the battery is disconnected a fuse is blown? You could try testing power wires for voltage. Can you get wiring diagrams? Do you know...

    How many cubes was the box? Pretty neat there was enough energy to spit the sub out of the box. Are you going with 12" U series?

    I'm looking at buying a 2021 Camry SE with a 4 cylinder. I read about these newer cars with weasel alternators. How do you find out if it's a...

    some dude replied to the thread Amp/voltage help.
    Yeah, put the probes on the power wire and ground wire of the amplifier. Multimeter on DC. Do not put it on the wires that go to your speakers. M

    Nice ride! I've had interest in similar cars. I'd like to get a Buick Roadmaster. Giant station wagon. Are you gonna put a system in it? Trunk has...

    some dude replied to the thread RCA VS HIGH LEVEL INPUT.
    Does RCA to amp send digital signal? Like 1 or 0? Or is it like a sin wave of voltage?

    I ran 1200 watts through 12 gauge. Didn't notice any melting on the wire's insulation.

    some dude replied to the thread Alpine MRX-M100 opinions?.
    Giving subs more power really wakes them up. The MRP-500 is pretty low power. You would really notice more authority in your bass.

    How much room do you have for the box? Do you know how big of a box each sub wants? Do you have an amplifier already? Do you have electrical...

    Wait on any electrical upgrades until you get a good idea of what your voltage is doing. That tells you everything. Basically you want it to stay...

    some dude replied to the thread Voltage Drop!!!.

  • some dude
    How big of a box will you build for it? That has to be a major concern considering the space constraints of a Camaro.
  • some dude
    I agree with Doxuzme. It sounds like you wired to 2 ohms which isn't a problem. Do you know how to use the 'gain' knob on the amplifier? If it...

    some dude replied to the thread SIA 3500D.
    Yeah, like Audiobaun said, big amplifier likes a big car battery and a strong alternator. If you wire your subs to 1ohm, you want to have an idea...

    This had me thinking, "How much power was OP planning on running that required thicker gauge than OEM?"
