the sound is not normal. Are you running external amplifiers?

I've never had a thermal problem with any amp i've run. They have all been mounted under the seats. My vehicle in direct sunlight 95% of the time.

I went from 75w to 200+W per mid and they became like a new set of speakers. I wasn't a fan of the passive crossover, so I went active.

It's been over a year now and everything is still working perfectly. The amp survived summer 08 (110+ air temps ~140 degrees inside my truck). The fast turn on still bothers me. Listening to the tweeters and sub for seven seconds is weird. There is protection circuitry according to DIYMA, but...

Tucson here, but I'm out of the loop.

local dealer or i'll drive to phoenix and go to a dealer there.

Another option is teathering the subbox to the babyseat anchor (or similar) with steel cable. It won't be as secure a bolted to the floor but atleast the box won't kill anyone. A quick disconnect will allow tool-less removal.

i meant in terms of other brands, but good call.

exactly

good is subjective, but i am happy with my older version of those (system 240 MKII). The more power they get the better. There is always another tier of performance but those are generally considered towards the top.

united radio will fix it. Iirc it's about a $100 minimum including shipping both ways. I didn't have mine fixed so I dunno if it will be more than that.

I'll swing by in the afternoon. Hopefully somebody will still be there.

.6 volts at the remote line is the problem. It should be 12 when the radio is on. To check you can temporarily jump the positive power terminal over the the rem line just to see if it turns on

higher voltage means you can run a lower gain setting on your amp. If you don't have noise issues with 3v (for example) you won't notice a difference at 8v.
