  5. i have a bass amp and a voice amp and i want to put a epi center and a dsp and i have a rca bass knob and i am confused on how many rca cables i will need and how to run them all.

  7. what is the best website for designing subwoofer enclosures?
  8. my current setup is 2 sundown E series 12s in a 2.5cu slot port enclosure running on a 2000 watt max rockville audio amp (db12) stock electrical pioneer double din headunit also have a speaker wall above my back seats with 2 rockville marine speakers and a ds18 pro 8” midrange and 2 skar 3.5” tweeters running on a rockville full range amp all wiring for amps is rockville 4gauge and rockville rca
  9. how much air space does this subwoofer need?
  10. this would get down. would even have a bit left over to get a box built and a second battery. if you are feeling spicy you can add some lithium power and rock with the D1 sub at 0.5 ohm... might be a bit much power for that sub at 0.5 ohm. the safe way would be to get the D2 coil config and run it at 1 ohm
  11. how many and what size subs subs would you prefer?
  12. my price range is around 2-3k want it to be loud but also daily driveable
  13. my price range is around 2-3k and i want it to be loud but don’t want to spend a crazy amount
  14. the e series is more of a budget line from sundown. you could possibly make a pair of x or z 12s move some air.
  15. what is your crossover set at on the dsp?
  16. honestly if you want to play with the big spl numbers you are going to need a serious budget... think 6 figure range. you could always save up over time. if you are just wanting some good bass that's something we can for sure help with. I'd need to know a rough number for your overall budget and I can make some recommendations based on that to get you some good sound. you've got a good vehicle for what you want. that generation Tahoe is a proven platform for bass.
  17. i have a 2004 tahoe and want to do a spl build but i dont have a huge budget what would be the best and most efficient way to do the build?
  18. Hello all, I am new here and was wondering if anyone has used the XDSP66BT DSP by NVX. I had a taramps 2.6 dsp and it was fairly easy to use and it got loud and clear. I have my high pass on the amp set to off and im running skar components in the front doors and it doesnt sound as punchy as it did with the taramps. Should i adjust the eq on the dsp or the head unit? thank you
  19. That's too little fire power to get windy or anything like that, you can put the same subs in a small car and improve just a bit. Vehicles that get windy are on the thousands of watts and many high displacement / cone area subs.
  20. i have two sundown e series 12s in a ported enclosure in a 2004 tahoe and they move a lot of air in the very back of the tahoe but in the front and second row seats it doesn’t really do anything what is the best way to get them windier

    no, i didnt plug in the rca's, just had the + and - connected to a car battery and one 4ohm old car speaker connected up. i like dabbling with electronics in my spare time so may give it a go at some point to see if it can be fixed. the gain knob being set at max was probably a good indicator of how the previous owner ran this amp.
  22. If your only complaint is the tun on/off thumps that's 100% solvable and it hasn't anything to do with your wire gauge or your batteries, those problems are generally solved by at least two means: 1) delay the turn on signal going to the amp or amps. 2) delay the amplifier connection to the speakers/subs by means of the use of a relay. There are already commercial devices available to do the above fixes.
  23. The kicker amp sounds great overall, not really looking for more on output just higher quality I guess in the line miss the Si, ZR , ZX KX lines . Been running kicker since mid 90’s just been fight to find away to stop and turn off and on pop. I have tried everything I can find . I took another amp different brand and used an old HU wired directly to my rear battery and would still get the same on and off pop. I guess I’m being way to ocd about this but I feel like this could be solved. The last thing I changed was I had two runs of 1/0 going to rear UGP 40ah and I made one into a ground. I still have a AGM xs power upfront underground told me to leave it . And not to use an isolator. Mornings my front Vm will go almost instantly to 14.5 but the Vm on the lithium slowly over about a minute will get to 14.5. During testing I even eliminated the lithium and still get the on off pop so I’m just ranting now lol.
  24. Here are a number of options for a single amp 6 channel: https://www.sonicelectronix.com/ci45-5-channel-6-channel-8-channel-amplifiers.html?sort_order=price_asc&filter_f_op_42_237=1 The AudioControl LC-6.1200 will do 200 watts rms x 6 at 2 ohm.
  25. Ok, that amps puts out nearly 2K at 1 or 2 ohm, it has been tested with the SMD AD-1 and is in the power range of your subs, Only if you have thoroughly checked your electrical, wiring, box design, gain settings to be perfect then you can look for another amp to see if your amp is under performing for some reason. To me your box is in the smaller side 2.25 to 2.5 net with 35 square inches per driver is what you should have.
  26. I changed my mind a bit on the AMP setup. Currently I am planning on using 3 Fosgate T400X2ad 2 channel amps. That would give me all 6 speaker channels I need. That gives me my 180w minimum per speaker location I need. I am still hoping for a 1 amp solution to this though if anyone knows of one.
