More like theres a blown coil and its shorting out.

Pull the subs and inspect

Oh dang, well how would I be able to tell? Noise or appearance? And what should I look for?

Hey ray,

I've been wondering this for a while.

I have the kenwood x895 and when adjusting my crossovers and frequencies on the deck, there is this option called "center frequency point" and it let's u adjust each component idvidually: like for bass mids and highs.

Is the "center frequency point" a cutoff point like a crossover? Or do I adjust it to the middle of each component. Like example for mids, if the frequency range is 80hz-500hz do I put the center frequency point exactly in the middle like around 300hz or so and then adjust the bandwidth with the q factor settings? I'm confused.

Hey Ray, does a box at 1.66 net cubes and an aero port of 4" x 15" sound right at 34hz? I'm not understanding ports at all. It's frustrating and if you could give me a hand that would be great. It's for a single DC 12 lvl 4. The gross volume is 2.16 cu ft btw.

What I'd really like to do is dual 4" ports. But I can't figure out how to do that. Help please?

Ray, ive got a 2007 Chevy tahoe, with bose and onstar. pioneer AVH-P4300DVD installed with the PAC-OS4 module and the Pac-SWI ps for steerring wheel controls.

Im wanting to upgrade my mids and highs, should i completly take out the bose system, and run all new speaker wire, and add a 4 channel? or is there a easier way around the bose setup?

That pbus to 1/8th jack will work.

But you already have an av input on the back of the deck.

It is currently rca

As for the blose...

The amp is under your cupholder, all speaker wire is there, and is 16awg copper.

Just cut the speaker wires and extend to your new 4ch

Or run all new if you want.

You will lose onstar voice unless you add a small external speaker under the dash.

Just tag it to the front output from the bose amp.

Thank you sir, that makes it a lil easier. is there a crossover somewhere up front for the tweets in the a pillars?

Signal goes from amp to a 4pin plug at tweeters then jumps down to the 6"

Tweeters have caps on them
