I recently got an Ipod and am having some noise issues with it and the interior neons I have, need some help; The system is all aftermarket, Pioneer Premier 750mp HU, MTX amps – when playing CD or radio everything sound really good. The neon lights – there are 2 Streetglow...

Kingfrog - Has anyone here ever talked about mixing in their truck - NO, I don't think so. You may probalby have spent more time reading about the physics side of stereo then I have but I know what sound good to me, I know that each time I removed a stock part of my stereo and replaced it...

MDF is a great material to build boxes out of, it is cheap, easy to cut and is very strong and doesn't chip, sands well but it is not airtight - air will not come rushing thru it but it does leak, after you get all the wood cut and test fitted just spray it with paint and leave it for the night...

I'm in a similar state, have a MTX 4250D and 2 RF subs that are collecting dust, my best idea is to wait until next fall then list them in a college campus newpaper - hopefully there will be some students with money who will buy them. Other then that ebay will work but you wouldn't get much.

No, there is no advantage to dual voice coil other then wiring options, A dual 4 ohm sub wired in parallel will handle exactly what a single 2 ohm sub does.

It should fit fine but I will laugh at it (and you) if I ever see it in person. The other thing is that if it is not well built it could rattle.

To understand the difference between ported and sealed go down to any stereo shop and try out the demo equipment with your music, listen to your music in a sealed and a ported box and determine it for yourself. Personally I like sealed but I have a high end sub (Love my MTX 9512 - thanks Expo)...

If you go ported or sealed I would drill holes in the back of the box a bit (like 1/32") bigger then the wire then seal the holes w/ silicone. Running the wires thru the port will look like crap. Sealed vs ported is really a question that you have to answer yourself - how you're mounting the...

Heat shouldn't be a problem. But if you need to adjust the amp (gain or boost) then you're going to have to remove the sub.

The problem with a circuit breaker is that there is a chance (a small one) that it may fail in a closed state - That is what I just read from the Sept Issue of Performance Auto and Sound.

I used stinger 17 foot RCA's and they were long enough.

Yeah I pretty much agree with Expo - if you want to do this right maybe get a smaller monitor to mount in the headliner (or talk to Expo about the monitor housing he made for a member in the stock radio spot), new CD player with audio in jack and a computer mounted somewhere out of the way, you...

I've been looking to get something to replace the X and have been told that I can't remove the stock radio from most newer trucks because it controls other things like the security system, door locks and other stuff. Plus the new truck may have DVD naviagation so I don't want to mess with that...

I will try to answer all of your questions; 1. if you use 1/2" MDF for the speaker adapter you should be fine, it's strong enough not to flex and will fit under the door skin, or you could order adapters and they would be predrilled and everything - about $10 for sounddomain.com 2. There...

It has to be CLR - the description of the bottle matches.

For your first question I had the same problem and it was fixed by doing what DeRocha said, change the resistor block. I had my mechanic do it and I don't think it was much money About the speaker question, could the wiring harness be loose in the back of the HU or when pulling out the HU...

Need to clarify - at one point you list (2) 8 ohm subs, the next time it is (2) 8" 4 ohm subs - which is it, if it is (2) 4 ohm subs then you can wire them for a 2 ohm load but your amp is not stable at 2 ohms bridged, it may still work but heat will be an issue.

It all looks amazing - I can't imagine spending that much time on my truck and not getting fired or lossing my girlfriend in the process. Can you give me a breakdown on the audio, what speakers you have where and what amps you have powering them. Also does 19 speakers give any advantage over...

It depends on how big of a system are you planning on. I have about 1000 watts running off a stock alt and have no problems, if you install you're system and have problems then you can buy the alternator later.

Sometimes it is a question of manners - other times the cops are just being dicks. I was at darknights nationals at the end of july and pulling out of the markham fairground (a big field in with nothing for miles) cops were waving over everyone with a modified car or any kind of sound system, I...

Yes, you can get fined for this but it is one of those things where the cop has to be having a bad day or some new campaign against loud music w/ swearing to bother.

After going to the Pioneer website and looking at the online manual (the same as what you should have gotten with the HU) I know it is 10 amps.

There was post on Sounddomain about this so here is the list they came up with; Note this is a SQ system but just to give you some idea of what no budget means. what would it consist of... it will be pure 100% sq... not sql... assume no budget (dont spend like $2,000,000 either...) what...

It depends on the amp but what you could do is run your front RCA's into the front of the amp, split the rear HU output so that it goes to the Rear amp input and sub input. This way you will have balance and fade control but if you fade the rear too much you will loose bass. Some 5 channel...

Everything is now done except for the cover that is going to go around the amps to cover up the wiring, took a lot longer then I expected but sounds very good and should get better because I only spent 10 minutes adjusting the amps. The last pic is of the back side of my trucks namesake, just...
