it was installed almost a year ago but they were only gettin 250 up until about a week ago when all these "problems" came about.
-
okay, well he doesnt listen to well. when i took the truck back over to his house to get my car back he calls me a couple minutes ago and says...now the subs are startin to smell like ass why are they smellin. i tell him cuz he's burnin up the voice coils and hes like what are you talkin about....but honestly...i dont see why the coils would be burning up off of the pdx amp.
could they be smelling like that from the lack of voltage too?
-
okay well he's ignorant as hell...i been tellin him basically what you guys are saying...that he needs more/a better battery cuz the stock one cant keep up with what everything is pullin. he just read this thread and is like..oh i guess your right.
we'll see if that solves it which it most likely will....ill let you guys know thanks.
keep postin though if you have somethin else to add.

My question is why abuse someone elses shit in the first place?..oh, the lights are dimming, just turn it up some more..I'd be fuckin pissed if it was my Avy.
But enough of my critisism. Whats his electrical consist of? Completely stock? Any funny smells coming from the amp or subs?
this is the reason he gave me the truck man...im not abusin it im trying to see what the problem is. he said its never done it before so he gave it to me to check out and im postin up everywhere to see if someone has an anser.
electrical is completely stock....there were some funny smells for a little bit last week when another friend re-wired the subs, and btw i have no clue how they are wired.
but other than that nothing
-
Is there a second battery in there?
no second battery...im tellin him he needs to get one but he keeps sayin he doesnt need one.
-
but what would cause it to drop that low? i didnt think they were pullin that much power....
-
my friend let me borrow is 08 avalanche for a couple days and i was of course blastin the music....i had the volume on the head unit all the way up bass all the way down and the volume on the ipod all the way up wit the EQ set to treble booster. i played put on and on the high note the lights dim to the point that they are almost off and last night all fo the electronics acutally reset while i was driving the truck when i was bangin. the guages all shut off radio went off lights went off...everything went off for about 2 seconds then came back on and it was playing fine again...but still dimming.
also the subs sometimes just cut out and stop playing all together when i turn it up all the way but when i turn it back down they play again.
2 12" L7's powerd by an alpine pdx1000 btw.
that may not make perfect sense...im kind of typin in a rush im at shcool. need any clarity just ask and ill explain more...
thanks

Go custom exhaust,, and they do be a bit on the pricey side,, most of us broke
lol...or just like to spend more on the cars audio than a nice new car in the first place.
-
reposttt...but thats funny as hell lol i laugh everytime i watch that
-
not the 08 but my older brother has an 06....as for suggestions to the supercharger i dont have any. and as far as the exhaust, i have never seen a true dual setup for that truck other than goin custom.
-
if you goin for daily yeah the btl's....with clean power goin to them i dont see why they wouldnt handle the power.
-
naww man, im gettin a brand new escalade if i get one.....maybe even an EXT. Again, if i wanted to drive an older Caddy i may as well just stick with my Tahoe - im ready to do it big with a new one!! With all the shit on the Tahoe though, i need to get another year out of it at LEAST. That is if i dont get sick of it......who knows i could just go get that caddy sooner then i think
so would you completely start a new build with all new equipment or use some of what you have and build around it?
if you got the new caddy that is...
-
i know there good but the ssd with the flatwine coil are more in my buget
okay....well you asked for peoples opinion. so thats just what they're sayin.
i say q's too.
-
you talkin about the new escalade or the older style?
-
depends on the install(box, location, car type) and electrical...
and i woulnt say re subs are mediocre either...
-
yeah i agree with kkiiaann33....definatly sounds like a voice coil. what your installer said to you doesnt make much sense to me personally. i would think that if the amp fried the sub would just stop playin not start rattling and smokin....

just browsin youtube and came accross this f150. interesting enclosure design, never seen it like that before. anybody know whos truck this is or seen it before?
are there any benefits to sq or spl havin the enclosure like that or is it pretty much just for show? to me it looks like show. and arent those the same rims meade has on his tahoe?

never seen an all stock cobalt do 160....ever.
i dont believe it.
-
gotta do somethin about that little pioneer sub lol
nice car bro enjoy it.

4 10" cvx's and upgrade electrical. you can use the same box.
-
not a problem.
-
dont mean to thread jack ora nything, but your saying 4 12" cvr's arent louder than a 15" l7?
lets make a situation, 4 12" cvr's in a sealed box vs a 15" l7 in a ported box
cvrs on 1600 rms l7 on 1k rms
which would be louder? if the L7 would be i think i have to sell my current system (2 cvr's)
thats not what i said. re-read what i posted. i was saying that i dont think one 15" l7 would be louder than the cvr's.
-
if you are doin that because you think the l7 will be louder than the 4 cvr's, i dont really see that being the case.
maybe you should get 4 cvx 10's? i see more potential in that than one 15 l7. only thing would be powering them...but that shouldnt be too hard.
but if you are stuck on the 15 l7 then go for it....nobody can stop you from doin what you want to.

another question....would it be better to get another factory style battery from gm and run two stock batterys or to just replace the stock one with a yellow top?
