  1. So i just rewired my 4 ohm Kicker Compvr's to 1 ohm and changed the wiring to SHCA 12 gauge OFC and now there is a constant beep that sounds like its coming from my amp. The beep was never there before. Any ideas guys?

      Its a pioneer Gm D-8601. It's one ohm stable. 800 watts at 1 ohm. Subs are DVC 4 ohm Kicker Compvr 12's 400 watt RMS. Yes the new wiring is speaker wire.

  2. Gonna try out some polyfil in my box. I know my box is on the lower end of the Manufacturers recommendations. The box is ported. Will using some strong spray adhesive inside the port to secure the polyfil to the box work? Or should I secure it inside the box?

      Pack it in meaning not securing it? Will be back for results sometime tomorrow.

  4. Probably a dumb question but here it goes. When speaker wire is split into two sides do you use one side of the wire for negative and the other for positive? Or run both through the positive and a separate run for the negative?

      Thanks bro, had single wire before one for + and one for -. But upgrading to some SCHA 12 gauge OFC speaker wire and just had to ask haha.

  5. Help me real quick please. On a monoblock amp with 2 subwoofers hooked up is that 2 channels or 1? Sorry if this is a dumb question its just making my head hurt haha

  6. So I got 2 kicker Compvr 12's wired at 1 ohm using a Pioneer Gm-8d601 amp, was thinking about getting a T-1400.1D Skar amp. These subs are rated at 400 RMS each. Anyways was wondering if anyone has any input on this, thanks.

  7. Got quoted 350-400 to have a sealed box for 2 12's in my trunk. WTF

  9. Anyone else's bass sound like shit when it's cold outside?

    1. KickersintheTrunk

      KickersintheTrunk

      Ah that's weird. Would cold weather effect voltage or anything? Because it's isn't as loud on cold days, and the car interior rattles more.

  10. Damn, Totally forgot it was my mom's birthday today. :(

  11. What would be a reasonable price to pay for a sealed box for 2 12's. The box will fit in the trunk so shouldn't be too big or complicated.

    1. KickersintheTrunk

      Yeah I have a box too haha. I want one made specifically made for the subs though. I'm located in North Carolina.

  12. Servers in GHOST are good because I normally have a shit connection at my gf's house

  13. Upgraded my battery terminal to a Gold Stinger Pro, and re crimped my power cable because the end of the wire looked black and dirty and the wires felt funny. Damn did it make a difference, brought some new life to my system.

    1. KickersintheTrunk

      KickersintheTrunk

      Don't have a meter haha, but it was definitely an improvement. Wish I would've measure the voltage before and after.

      Cool well that's good to know. I don't have the tools to build my own box. Should I design one and have a shop build it?

  17. Waiting for cyber Monday to order some power, ground and RCA cables. Hopefully there will be some good deals.

  18. How are the dedicated servers on COD Ghosts?

  19. Peel and Sealed my trunk, stopped all the sound of the trunk rattling inside of the car and left a little of the rattle sound outside. Oh well, only 16 dollars, so wouldn't really expect any more than that.
