@@slitherman7883 most of the time you don't wanna turn ur bass boost up at all if ur amp isn't powerful enough without turning it up then u usally need a bigger amp but if u turn it up and u dont hear any distortion and ur turn the bass boost up go for it
when I first put my system in I did not have anything to set the gain I went to a couple local car audio places and asked them how they were going to tune my system and how they set the gains and frequency. most of them said by eare, by a multimeter. I did not trust that so I purchased the SMD dd -1 and cc-1. I paid one of them $120 to set my gains and frequency on both my amps and when I later purchased the dd1 and cc1 I later discovered that the frequency was way off and the gain was set to high. this will tell you what your max volume can go on the head unit and the max gain with no distortion and it is very accurate. the oscope that the guy used to tune your system is the most accurate I am glad that they used a oscope and not guessing. it definitely sounds clean with the tune, get the dd1 and the cc1 well worth it, I realized that my head unit does not distort at full volume most decks distort at 3/4 volume that is good to know. aewsome video.
I love car audio. I have a 2010 Hyundai sonata I wish I could bump in, but I can't afford it with all the lay offs around here I had to sell my system. But keep bumpin love the vids.
Nope. I just made sure to use ofc wiring because it's way way friendlier on your electrical system and far more efficient and I have no headlight dimming, windows roll down the same speed, everything appears fine. I may throw on a second battery cell just to take a little load off the car anyway

My pioneer deck go up to 62 but the way they set it up i can't go pass 60 or I'll be clipping my bass knob will let me know that im clipping when i go pass it
Yeah some are like that. My old headunit would clip at 55 out of 60. So that means if you clip the headunit you are only going to amplify distortion and then if the amp is set to clipping too its just bad all round. Need to know both the head unit clean signal point then set the amp to its max non clip and you'll be clean.

My friend said scar uses CCA undersized wiring in their prefab sub boxes. Is this true?what gauge speaker wire are you using. I recommend 12 gauge OFC only for subs getting 1000-2000w rms. people that think you need eights gauge though are deluded as speaker signal is AC not DC and high-voltage at that
@@Kpaceguy I wanted to pass this deal along if you ever needed speaker wire, its beautiful tinned OFC wire in a clear jacket, cant say enough good things about "conextlink".
