    i have a 99 chevy 240 alt and the smal under hood voltage jumper but i have 2 now and can i tap into the same jumper to increase the voltage with out another $100 i dont have

    Dont get hung up on voltage, current is king (whether you charge at 13.9 or 14.5 aint going to make a difference when the knob go to the right). Voltage under load is all that matters, and raising your unloaded voltage is almost useless.

    how they bump at idle so long without voltage drop? those alts must be high output at idle

    most dont do own installs and probably roasting equipment constantly. Kinda doubt any of these systems are on "real" power. Running say 5-6kw at idle and holding 13+ is easy to do without much charging, just need batts. Seems to be more about how loud can I get this trashcan full of rocks to sound rather than how actually loud it is (most of us look for bass with no rattle, but tearing metal is part of it; I knew some local shop owners who said people came to him to add in loose metal into trunks to make it "louder").

  3. Grand tour was good but had some cringe worthy momments

    You can tell they tried hard to change up the format a bit, but really its the same damn show. Intro I thought was gratuitous, but still love watching the new top gear with a new title.

    yea, it's a formula that doesnt really need to charge. i feel like the show will get better/funnier/etc as time goes on as they get comfortable again in the new format.

  4. Ok so i have seen many different answers on this and I am wondering on what is the correct answer. so my head unit is a pioneer FHX-520ui

    now on the head unit there is a bass Level, not bass boost but bass level it goes from -24 to + 6 its default setting is 0 when i am DD-1 tuning my set up should i set this at 0 or+ 6 or somewhere in between, i'm assuming this is Gain from the rca outputs, and if it does not matter what are the beniffits of tuning at 0 or +6 i just want to tune it for the best possible output, what i am currently running is in my signature as well, I also plan on upgrading to an AVH deck with 4v pream outputs because i feel like i can get better bass response out of these subs.

    You would in reality need a scope to be sure. But generally brands stick to a certain way. Alpines generally need sub level at max, kenwoods are at 0, not sure on pioneers though.

    Without knowing, I would leave it at zero since when you DD-1 the amp it will compensate with the gain to still give you the max unclipped ACV out of the amplifier.

  5. Their first video was good, I subscribed to their youtube channel.

    Now Im wondering why I did that because its the same jokes in each video it seems and no longer creative.

    Its like watching an episode of Soundman and thinking to yourself "its been 30 seconds so the next Rafas mom, explosion, or Deez nuts meme is over due and about to happen"....

    Yea, I cant even watch soundman anymore.

  6. Lets say the svc6k does 6k @one ohm.now what if I run the amp at .5 but turn the gain down so it still puts out the 6000.is this still safe or like one ohm stability for the amp.in my mind as long as the amp dont exceed the rms rating at 1 ohm wouldn't it be the same as .5 ohm with the gain down pushing the 6k

    No, it is not the same thing. You would actually need more amperage to create the 6k @ .5 than it would to do it at 1 ohm due to efficiency loss at .5.
