http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_16354_...al+KD-A305.html I think I will get this to replace my stock headunit. RCA for the subwoofer stage, and 5v preouts. Looks fairly easy to use. Aux input from the ipod, I'll have to buy the ipod adapter another day.... What do you guys think of it.?

dammit I really needed a head unit. MINE JUST BROKE LAST NIGHT!..... well I guess I'll keep lookin...

should I just buy a real cheap one with like 2 v preout? and I need the ipod connection. Any Suggestions?

2002 ford explorer. I might just go buy a new alpine head unit.... I need to get the cash together...

Alright I got it out. CD Player doesn't like pull in the CD's like before. Does that mean its broken? As in when i try to push it in the cd, it doesn't take it from me and pull in and do it all by it self. I'd have to jam it in like before...

didn't work. I must have done it wrong. I cant pinch it will enough to pull it out! I REALLY need to fix this.... my dad will KILL me

theres nothing to really show.... its stuck in there u can't see it. I'll try the knife thing, i'll try the cd under it too. How far should I push it in there to go under neath it?

Alright well I added an amp to my car for testing. I unplugged the battery and had to plug it back in and when I tried to start it, it had troubles starting because of the disconnectoin of the battery. So When I went to start it I also tried to put a cd in. The cd was just sitting half way in so while I tried to start it again and just pushed the cd in. The cd player will not read it, and it cannot eject it becuase it doesn't see it as it's in there. It is a 2002 ford explorer, and it is the regular (not 6 disc) cd changer. I read to either grab it with plyers (can't find needle nose small enough) or take it out. I don't know how to take it out either so can someone help!

yep it will fit You might need a kit to make it fit right but ive seen some people not even use a kit u sellin ur old one?

If I had that much cash I would go with a sundown 3000d. I'm sure the audioque is good but I would rather go with sundown. The audioque 2200d seems plenty enough, for right now atleast, and the price is right if someone has a used one I wouldn't mind buying that. Btw, I was amazed off of 1000, i dont think I'd be able to handle 3000 lol

Why not?I don't see whats wrong just throwin in the battery and chargin it through ur power wire..?

Tell me if I answer this right It (as of right now) is going to be on an Audioque 2200d when I get the cash, the box is 7cu. ft. at 33hz. In a 02 Ford Explorer

I don't have vids, as I just hooked it up tonight. Wow, I played it today for about an hour on chitty 4 guage (old install), no batteries, and a h.o alt. It was also on a Hifonics 1200 rms amp (friends amp, I needed to hear it). It probably wasn't pushing that much but WOW it is so damn loud...... My ears were hurting and I've heard systems with way more power not be as loud as this. Everything rattled to hell, and it was moving a decent amount of air. Overall I'm VERY impressed with this sub, I couldn't be happier. I am SOOOO glad I went with it. I think I'm in love. I'll get some vids this weekend if I borrow my friends amp again. Sub is a 10/10 in EVERYTHING in my books

Triple post sry Also, the remote wire only read about 2-3 volts....

btw, this member at caraudio has said that he ran his at 1 ohm... http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=375427

The websites I look at say it is.., the newer version people say they have it working on 1 ohm. Maybe since this is the older it doesn't work. A member at *** said this "Dual 2 ohm coils should read like 1.6-1.7 ohms per coil when you hook them up to the DMM. So if you check them with the coils wired in parallel already, it should be about .7. But every sub that's dual 2 ohm and wired in parallel is 1 ohm at the amp." So it's not really at .7 at the amp I guess Okay update. I got a new fuse, little bit different, didn't seem like it went in all the way, but same fuse rating same type. Plugged everything up and it didn't turn on. I tried shoving part of the power wire into the remote turn on so its always on to see if it turns on and it didn't turn on. I got 12 v at the amp, and 12v with the remote turn on (with the part of the power wire in it) and still didn't light up or play. With the remote turn on it didn't play or light up. settings all the way down nothing worked. This worked on my 2 previous set ups, i don't know why these wires wouldn't work. The wires were also originally installed with this amp, so IDK what happened. Help guys...

AHHH, okay, I get it now. I'll try that after I get the fuse if it doesn't work.

positive power wire? or positive speaker wire? and by jump it you mean put the two together in the remote turn on hole? Sry, I thought I knew a lot of this stuff, but I've NEVER heard of this method

What do you mean?

I will restrip the remote wire, and the ground is connected to the seat bolt. I don't think it was sanded down, but it worked when I had the amp in a long time ago just fine. I checked under the hood and I popped a fuse when I sparked tryign to connect the power wire lol. I'll have to go get a new one, and I'll just retry it all. Thanks man, I was getting hopeless that no one was helping I'll post back if it works

update: I turned all the settings the other way, apparently I had the gain maxed out lol... I was confused and thought .2 was less than 6. I guess not though. Anyways, I got it to turn on and not go into protect while music was playing (car was off) So I turned the car on, and it didn't turn on. The big Crunch light didn't light up... Why isn't this working? could temperature be an issue? could my remote wire be messed up? the wire looked a little bad... maybe ill restrip it..

with a signal Think .7 and 1 ohm makes that big of a difference? Please help! I just wanna hear this!!!

I have my btl, and I am borrowing my friends sub amp to listen to the sub because I can't afford an amp just yet. I am dying to hear it. It is wired at 1 ohm, but really .7 ohm (DMM). It says the amp is 1 ohm capable, but It goes into protect when I turn the amp on. What could be the problem, maybe its not 1 ohm capable? or the .7 ohm is too low?

how much more does it rattle with 2200 rms compared to 1000?

what do you mean by your eyes have to be stable?
