    How big of a capacitor do I need for a jl 12w3v3 with a rockford fosgate punch 300 amp?

    I would say you definetly dont even need one. Sub a low power system, why bother. I dont really believe in them anyways, they are just a bandaid at best. Upgrade the "big three" wires under your hook. Google big three car audio upgrade and you will see.

    CAR AUDIO? is a 760watt Alpine amp good for a 10" jack hammer sub?

    Well, im not sure exactly what model you are speaking of, but generally, all alpine products are very good quality---you cant go wrong. Be aware, 4 channel amps are not very ideal for subs. Mono and 2 channel amps are much better choices. Also, you have to match the impedance or "ohms" of the...

    Orion HCCA Reference 225?

    Good deal if it works good. If you are only using it on ONE dual 4 ohm voice coil sub, the amp only makes 200 watts @ 2 ohms. http://ampguts.realmofexcursion.com/Orion_HCCA225/

    Crunch amp and 2 10" kickers?

    Crunch is really not the best brand.. And dont expect that amp to make anywhere near 1400 watts, probably a little over 500 realistically. Why not give it a shot and see if you like it? I usually dont suggest people just toss a bunch of different subs and amps in the trunk.. its tacky! You...

    I have two 12" rockford fosgate subs with an SPL 1500 amp?

    Well how many ohms is each sub and how is it wired? Is the amp overheating? Amps go into protect from over heating, overcurrent, over voltage, shorts, etc. Also, SPL is a junky flea market brand, this might be one reason also.

    orion hcca or kicker l7?

    1. The HCCA excursion you are quoting is peak to peak excursion. 2. The L7 has a sensitivity of 89.4db. The HCCA has sensivity ratings of 84db for the 10 and 12. Therefore, the kicker is much more efficient. Theoretically on paper, the kicker would be slightly louder with 1000 watts...

    if i get 2 15 inch subwoofers at 600 wats rms a peice and if i get a kicker 1000

    Derek, the subs wattage rating is only a POWER HANDLING figure. It means how many watts the sub can safely handle, maximum! Subs dont "push watts" The amp is the only thing making power. If you have a 1000 watt amp, it only makes 1000 watts.

    orion cobalt 800.1 amp problems?

    You never want the gain all the way up DUDE the gain is NOT A VOLUME KNOB. Its meant to match the input voltage from the head unit!

    Car/Audio Help! Car Audio Installers!?

    Well, are these the lower priced entry level models? If so, here are the specs. Power range: 50-150 watts RMS (800 watts peak power) So, a 300 watt amp give or take a little bit should suffice. Remember peak power really means nothing. But, please use model numbers when asking questions so...

    car audio remote wire question?

    It should be ok actually. In fact, I have run multiple amps along with 12v cooling fans off the remote wire (not recommended) But your situation should be no problem.... Give it a shot. If it was to be too much, the head unit has a protection for the remote wire incase it shorts to ground. Just...

    2009 Focus "moon & tune" package vs standard stereo?

    Most car makers count tweeters as a speaker too. IE, the woofer in the door is one, the tweeter in the A pillar is one, etc. They usually count every single component as a speaker. I do believe it is an upgrade from the standard focus stereo.

    Volkswagen stereo code! *help!!!*?

    Each stereo has a different code. You need the VIN number from the car that radio was in, and take it to the dealer, and they can pull the code. Who did you buy it from? Ask if they have the little "code card" that comes with the new car with the code on it. They will charge to pull the code...

    which is better kicker L7 or pioneer TS-W3002D2?

    They are both good. I prefer the pioneer myself. What is the objective? Do you just want to drive around playing stupid rap songs all day? Both subs can handle a lot of power and play loud. Price might be a factor if you are on a budget.
