S12X Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 Is it bad to put a rocker switch in the remote wire to turn it off quickly? Ive always had one inline for when the po-pos roll by and ive never had problems but i was just curious. Quote new setup in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S12X Posted December 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 i didnt think so but i get a nasty pop occasionally when i use it and never do when turning the HU off so i thought id check Quote new setup in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym85 Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 i forget the order, but u need to turn the amp off first and then the headunit...or the other way around. try that, i think the remote line briefly holds a small charge and that is where the popping is coming from. i did a swith on a boat and we had to turn things on and off in a certain order to get rid of the pop Quote i likes me some audio stuff...

David Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 yea I have heard of that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S12X Posted December 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 i dont do it to turn it off all the time, i only use it in emergencies like when you see the po-lice nearby and dont have time to wait 4 secs while holding the off button on the HU...they are assholes when it comes to noise ordinances...

kingsuv Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 I use a simple switch. The only time mine pops is when i don't give the amps time to completly turn off Quote Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 there is something to keep the amps from popping. do you have a pause button though or no? remotes FTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlpineTypeR06 Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 Turn the amp off, then the head unit. Mine pops also if I accidentally do it backwards (if I cut the car off before turning off the amp).
