Car Audio

i have 2 12" MTX 5500 subs..and the rms for each sub is 300..peak power for both subs is 1800 total....also the connection is 2 ohm i believe

I need to know what kind of amp thats in the $150 and less price range..that will power these subs very powerfully, but wont blow them...

ALSO WHAT KIND OF AMP WOULD DO IT BEST, MONO or 2 CHANNEL??

Im looking for some new subs that im going to be placing in a custom plexiglass box. i can do all the fabrication a build custom cars but was looking for some opinions of what type of subs and what amp i should get. the truck is going to be in shows and the system is only an accent piece sound quality isnt huge but needs to be ok for when i get rid of the truck. But any ideas of subwoofer and amp combos let me know. i was told by a buddy to look at Audiobah but let me know what you think!

Most suggestions by circuit city/ best buy, etc. are component set-ups or stand-alone tweeters, but I am sure the OEM speakers are at least coaxials - also I have already replaced door speakers and rear speakers, so the component set-up is half-wasted, IMHO...

My alpine type-r 12" either didn't come with jumpers or I lost them and it's awful hard and awful sloppy to squeeze 2 wires into one terminal. There are little holes in the bottom about 1/4" in diameter but I can't find any wires to jump them with online anywhere. I know there is an end connector that looks something like this:
.._
./..\
{ || }
{ || }
.\_/
.| . |
(Well that was a pain in the **** to make)
I just have no idea what that end is called and I believe that is what is used for the jumper ends. Of course I tried about 600 variations of google searches and came up with zero results.

Anything would be helpful

Would anyone please specify why, If i am running 8 guage power wire to my amp under the seat it needs to be this large when right after the amp there is 10 feet of smaller speaker wire? Whould anyone tell me whether or not the impedence on speaker wire is ignored or if it is not a major factor? Thanks.

I put the Jensen VM9511TS car radio in my truck and everything is working correctly. The only problem is there is no picture when I try to watch tv on it, but I can hear it fine. I found a code to play a dvd without the parking break wire and its working fine (picture and sound), but not while its on tv, just sound. Is there another code for that or is there something not working right with the radio. How can I fix this, or can I fix it?

I am interested in buying some new 6X9's for the back of my car and some new 6's for the doors, and maybe one sub. I don't want a big bangin system, just something with a little more power and sounds good. Any ideas on what type of amp (2 channel, 4 channel), do I need a crossover, that kinda thing. Any suggestions??

Is it better to run 2 500 watt amplifiers or one 1000 watt amplifier? And is it ok to run 3 seperate wires from the battery of the car? Or should I use a distribution block?

I bought an alpine type-r off an auction site (bad idea) and when I press lightly on the cone I hear a noise that sounds like a sort of scraping sound. Have any idea what that means for the sub? I have a new type-r that does not make this sound when pressed so I'm pretty sure this is not a good thing.

Hey guys

Do you know the difference between Pioneer and Pioneer Premier and which one do you think is better? They got almost the same specs and almost the same model.

Thanks for the answers.

I have a 21 month old and a 12 year old. Obviously they are into different things; 21 month old-Doodlebops, 12 year old-video games, so we need two players. We were thinking about putting two DVD's in the Toyota Sienna, mounting them in the front headrests. However, we have heard they break down quite a bit, and do nothing for resale value. I've also been toying with mounting one on the ceiling, and then getting my son a DVD that straps onto the seat that he can use for games (and he can sit with a budy in the 3rd row and play), but I'm concerned about it becoming a lethal object if we were ever in an accident. HELP! What does everyone recommend?

G510-44

Should I seal this or port it? Is a 10 more accurate than a 12 enough to port it and it will still sound tight and accurate? Or am I still better off going sealed. I get turned off by the sloppy and unnecessary low notes that block out the sound of my mids.

Currently I am using an FM Transmitter to listen to music using my iPod in my car. Would the sound quality difference be worth the $200 to connect my iPod directly to my stereo? I only listen to music in my car using my iPod.
