After realizing that the clip light is more just indicating a spike in voltage demand rather than looking at the actual wavelengths I also realized that I was far to worried about the "clip" when at the bass peak in songs. I've never heard my sub audibly clip. For my box, I just recently...

What DSP do you have and do you think it is worth having one? From a quick search it seemed they started around $300 and only went up but I didn't look very hard yet.

Not sure if I downloaded the best quality test tones/songs but there didn't seem to be a noticeable difference. Certainly worth a shot. I managed to get a little more bass from my sub before "clipping" by turning the subwoofer eq levels on my HU all the way down and upping the gain a tad bit on...

Though I don't plan on playing any CDs, I think I will be good with the JVC you linked from Amazon. I did look on Sonic first but they had basically nothing in stock after I filtered by preamp output voltage. Maybe I should try replacing RCA's first being that would be much cheaper although I...

Okay I was looking around and would like to get an opinion on this unit https://www.crutchfield.com/S-GLDuua0qRJf/p_105KDX370B/JVC-KD-X370BTS.html? 6-channel preamp outputs (4-volt front, rear, sub) It seems remarkably cheap for it to offer what I need. The harness I got from best buy though I...

Okay I am going to do a bit of research and look into getting one. If I were to get a good/proper head unit would that eliminate the need for a LOC/Line Driver? I really do appreciate all of the help and advice I will update you guys.

Seems like a strong place to start. Being that the 2v head unit I have is normally bad, would I need to get a better head unit as well or just installing a LOC should be the solution? I know promises can't be made but I am certainly willing to give it a shot.

So perhaps the clip light is not something to panic about and might not be actual distortion just voltage drop? As for the second statement, does that have something do with it not being able to perform its best? Like are you just saying that is something I will likely run into in the future or...

Okay so I don't have the box with me I am at work but I found this info on Crutchfield: 6ch/2V Preouts + Sub Control: The Sony DSX-B700 is equipped with 2-volt Front, Rear, & Sub preouts giving you the ability to connect external amplifiers to your car stereo system. The unit's subwoofer preout...

I'd also like to mention when the amp indicates clipping it isn't noticeable audibly, at least to me. But I haven't pushed it to the point of it sounding(by ear) like it's clipping just because I get pretty worried when it is clipping at all.

The head unit is a Sony DSX-B700W and yes signal is through RCAs. I will happily try replacing the RCAs if that is a possible issue I am having as well.

I apologize ahead of time if I am not asking in the right place. I have one X-12 v.2 by Sundown in a custom ported box. The amp powering it right now is an SFB 2000d I've done the Big 3 as well as replaced my factory alternator with a high amp one. I've tuned it best I can using the clip light...

You removed the fuse and had no problems. So did you try a new fuse?

Update: My hood flew open and smashed my windshield on my way home from work yesterday. The hood is cracked, the windshield shattered, small dents on the roof, and the area between the windshield and hood is broken. Has been shut and latched for at least 2 days. I drive 20 miles to and from...
