  1. Well I think it's time to upgrade my setup and I am a bit confused over 3 different amps here.

    I am not all crazy for just these three so suggestions would help a lot.

    So far I have come up with:

    2 Atomic 5000.1 amps

    1 SounDigital 8000.1 amp

    4 RD 3250 amps (I would buy 2 now, and 2 later)

    I'd like to keep the price around $1500 give or take, I don't care how small the amp is, if its large, no more than 26" long

    *Notes*

    I already have an Atomic 5000.1 so buying another would be slightly easier

    If SounDigital is anything like Stetsom, I want nothing to do with it. (a lot of people keep comparing the two)

  2. Any of you guys know any dance music that bangs like a rap song? I mean dance like house/trance kind of stuff.

    So far I've found two.

    Deadmau5 - Ghosts N Stuff

    Anyone know of any others?

  3. Recently just installed new front speakers into my system.

    My stereo now plays a whining noise which does not seem to be engine induced. Before installing speakers everything was fine no noise.

    Here are my symptoms:

    Tested a speaker on the headunit with speaker wire outputs = GOOD

    Ran new remote wire and still noise

    Ran new RCA wire to back and still noise

    On my new component speakers one of the capacitors blew very badly where it was smoking out of one of the new speakers

    Rear speakers which weren't touched with are now making noise as well

    The comps in the front are 2 ohms. The ones in the back are 4 ohm. possible amp problem from mixing ohm loads?

    Also,

    after attempting to play it with the noise, one of the crossovers exploded. a cotton like material exploded everywhere from outside the crossover. The subs seem to be rumbling as well even with the volume down.

    Wondering what you guys think this could be and what would be a way to test the output and input problems on my headunit/main speakers amp.

    Thanks

  4. nah I was only using 1 at a time for testing so there is no way they were really wired wrong. I tested it anyways. I think it was just a terrible recone job to be honest. it was slightly loud but not what I was expecting.

    I do know what your talking about though. I have done that before and I was like wtf it sounds like air moving and no bass lol

  5. So I bought some used DD 9917s off CACO and apparently they were just reconed. Well, I had a box built for one of them just to try it out and I started to play it in the car and it wasn't exactly very loud and literally after a minute or so, the sub completely locked up.

    It was wired to two ohms @ 3000 watts which is pretty much nothing for a 9917.

    So, after that, I hook up the other one. I notice the strong smell of a burning sub after about 20 seconds of playing it loud then about 2 hours later it starts making a sound like a spring vibrating or something. This one isn't blown YET but I sense it's damaged. Any of you guys have experience with something like this happening before?
