Thank you sir! Anytime

Good guy to deal with and definetly a man of his word. I sent the battery before being paid, on the promise from him to pay me when the money cleared his paypal. I sold him a d3400 battery i had, the last one. Once again thank you very much!

Just to tell you also, the keys from 95-98 on chevy and gmc opens other vehicles. My 95 truck key opens my brothers 98 gmc, my friends 98 cavalier, and my other friends 97 chevy truck. Won't start it but if you wiggle and giggle it, it'll open the doors.
Damn no kidding!! I think that the did the spark plug trick to spider the whole glass and knocked out just enough to get thier hand through.. But my car alarm is loud, i just sleep deep! Idk how i didnt hear it becuas eit was going off, my neighbors told me
-
Idk wether to consider myself lucky or unlucky! So my boy comes to my door this morning and says i got a hole in my passenger window! Someone had tried to break into my car last night! Me or my girl never heard the alarm at all but nothing was missing because not even a week ago i took my whole system out!! Now is that luck or wht is it? But the fuckin kicker is, i also have a chevy 1500 1997 that has no alarm and both my dc amps and my powerbass amp were in the truck!! Now if they just looked in the truck before the car they woulda had a serious pay day!! Im still mad as hell i got one broken window but glad i have My amps
-
im interested to find out how to solve this problem as i also have the humming problem with my speakers
Well i never figured it out so im going to just run all new wire for my speakers and even the amp and see what happens
-
Go to youtube and put in his name and a bunch of good vids will pop up but you will see it.

You leave the jumper in, the amps have to be linked in order to get them set, otherwise you just have two amps that are open ended, the circuit isn't complete.
Ok cool im glad you told me that because i was trying to see that in your video and couldnt tell. i actually took out the jumper from negative to negative and i still got my voltage but idk if it was right, ill do it again with the jumper and see if it changes.
-
Yeah ot doesnt say wether or not im supposed to take out the negative to negative jumper between the amPs
-
Tuning with strapped amps, do i leave the wire between the two negative speaker terminals? And where do i actually put the leads to read the output of the amPs? I just didnt know if i would mess anything up leaving the jumper wire or something. Just a little overview would be helpful

I found this article on the hissing from my tweeters. This sounds like it exactly:
It is common, after replacing a factory receiver with a high quality aftermarket receiver, to notice a background hissing sound. The "hiss" is nothing more than the extended frequency response of the new stereo, and not a defect, or wiring problem.
The same holds true when a factory speaker is replaced with a high quality aftermarket speaker. The new speaker has a separate tweeter, which brings out the high frequencies. Any background hiss in the system will now be more noticeable, but should be relatively slight once the source music begins playing.
Of course, if the hiss is pronounced, and not just in the background, there could be a problem with the wiring, or the equipment itself. If the hiss is made louder when the engine is running, this is an indication of an improper ground in the system.
Im almost positive this is what im hearing and nothing major. Just thought this was informative for anyone with issues like mine
-
Ok so this is where im at, i hooked the mids up active and the tweets up active, the mids dont make the noise and the tweeters do make the hiss still. Anybody have any ideas???! Is there anything else i can check?
-
The whining would be from the amp then if it goes away when you barely turn the volume up
Yeah maybe your right. I think its the crossovers somehow. The speakers sound fine and no noise without the x-over
-
Its not the rcas either cuz i just hooked up the mids active bypassing the crossover and no static hiss.
-
If its just a slight noise it could just be because your head doesn't have an absolute zero mute and its just a little feedback that you can't get rid of no matter how well you ground it or out could just be the Powerbass amp
I took it to a car audio place around here and he said that too. Its not real bad at all but im kinda picky and wanna get it right if possible. But when its turned up a little bit, like 4 or 5, it goes away or either i just cant hear it anymore
-
Nevermind thats fuckin wierd. I wired the crossover without the tweeter and just the midbass and it wont work, but it will work with just the tweeter. And it will also work with both of them. I cant seem to figure out this
-
I think there is something wrong with these crossovers cuz my mids arent even getting power..is there any way to test these? I have power going in but not coming out. And i know the speakers are good because i tested them but i tested them active without the passive crossover. I just never noticed that they werent even playing
-
Ok so i noticed my ground for my mids an highs amp wasnt tightened all the way so i garrantee that was why that little thing happened with my speakers this morning but im now that im listening to the speakers, the only hissing noise is coming from the tweeters and not the mids. So what is that telling me and what should i look for?
-
Neither for "better bang for your buck" in my opinion. There is louder for less (AQ,FI,DC...)
-
Thanks for the fast responses guys, im going to gO over all of it in a little bit, as soon as it gets a little warmer out there
-
Ok guys so i need some input please. I have a slight hum on my speakers which i installed a couple days ago, and this morning when i turned the heat on, the speakers turned off or went quiet but the amp didnt turn off and as soon as i turned the heat off the came back on! Also when i hit the heated seats button, the speakers crackled. My volume was on 1 because it was early as hell and just started my car to warm up. Does it sound like a ground? Or maybe a speaker wire is knicked?? Im going to pull out my dash today and check my speaker wires in a little bit but i wanted to see if someone could help me out a little bit
-
Damn those are some serious door panels! That looks lOud as hell
-
If you are running your speaker wire near your 4 runs of 0 gauge that'll put a wicked buzz in the speakers. Check the distance between power and speaker wires, and possibly ground your RCAs if you have a pioneer HU they're sometimes known for causing problems.
Thanks man, yeah my speaker wires are near my power wires, im going to try re-routing them
-
Sundown 100.4 and AQ4x90 both have "bandpass" capability to run mids/tweeters active. Otherwise look into a 3 way processor or active HU...
Honestly since you're running passive sets, I don't see much reason to go active with them. There is no magic in running active, just allows you to choose pretty much any mid/tweet that you want and also more ability to tweak settings "if" you're so inclined. Otherwise a passive set will sound just as good...
thats cool, i never knew those amps had that feature..but yea i did my research and realized i cant run active with my setup, but running active would be louder because they get more power to them and can sound better..but im satisfied how it sounds now that i got everything in and tuned..BUT i need some advice which nobody has any ideas about why i have a slight buzz or hum in my speakers though...i tried a ground loop isolater but its didnt do anything...anybody else have any ideas?? cuz this is a little annoying...
