dlheights Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 (edited) I want to know if anyone has any tips/tricks to get HU's stop skipping when the bass hits. I just bought a panasonic HU a few months ago and the bass is hitting too hard and causing it so completely stop playing for a few seconds occasionaly, and skips quite frequently. I don't know if it's cheap burnt cd's I have or if it's the HU, and info would be great, thanks. Edited April 25, 2007 by dlheights Quote
BigOso Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Does it do it as frequently with normal cds as it does with burned? The only way to really fix the problem is to use a changer or you can try to add some supports to the cage.

zaxfire69 Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Or Go Ipod or Seperate Mp3 player like an Ipod..Ipod's don't skip do they??? Mine does this as well...I don't burn my cd's at maximum speed I do like 24 or 16x and it seems to skip less... Quote
dlheights Posted April 25, 2007 Author Report Posted April 25, 2007 Cool, I'll try to burn the cds slower, it might help a lil, and im too broke for an ipod, I might save for one though! thanks! Quote

Dozier Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 My head unit used to skip from the bass from the subs...I used to take pencils and stuff and wedge them into the dash between the head unit or popsicle sticks...call me ghetto..it works. It keeps the head unit from bouncing 1/4 inch up and down within the dash. Quote www.AlabamaDrift.com04 Silverado in the works
zaxfire69 Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 Panasonics are notorious for skipping. My last panasonic skipped with like one 10".. My buddy had an older Sony Deck and I think back then it was called Esp protection or something like that..Anyway that was the only Cd deck that I witnessed that would not skip. He had 4 15's and hit hard, and it didn't matter if you drove over a pot hole, jumped a railroad track, freakin drop it out of a plane it wouldn't skip...He would hit his dash as hard as he could and wouldn't skip...I wanted to purchase one, but before I could it had been discontinued. Sony probably figured out that the deck was indestructable and quit making them..Not talkin bad about Sony, just saying i was disappointed. Quote
Slinky Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 thats a +1 for sony. there decks aint bad.

Dozier Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 Same here...I don't mind their high end hu's..Just don't like amps, speakers, or subs. Quote www.AlabamaDrift.com04 Silverado in the works
dlheights Posted April 26, 2007 Author Report Posted April 26, 2007 yeah, I agree panasonics do skip, everyone around here no lie this is all of our set ups (yes me included) panasonic HU, Kicker subs, Hifonics amps. I did start the panasonic and kicker though..... Quote
