I bought a nice used custom box with a massive audio hippo sub. Took it home it sounded like crap. Removed sub and it was wired crazy. Wired it up correctly and it was violent smooth bass!

Thanks this video helped me a lot. My subs p3 Rockford fosgate where not wired right then I wired them how they are suppose to and now I get strong bass.

i had mine hooked up this one time and i notice the same thing and i just switched the main output wires around and they really made a difference. btw they are 2 12 inch l5 dual 4s

Is their another link for the wiring diagram? I’m trying to put two dual voice coil 10s but the link doesn’t work for me

Mine is doing the "out of phase" so I wired everything up but used some wires that didnt come with the kit, which is very skinny like factory stock skinny, and I wired both my 6x9's with that wire to my 400watt boss amp. Could it be that I didnt used Speaker Wire? Or is something actually wired wrong

My question is two rgbs comes from my sub to two line outs (red and white) from my amp. But my mate said I only need to wire one line to sub not two? White to left channel of sub which is mono anyway..is this right. Only that I tend to find my sub cuts out at quieter levels? Thanks..steve

You should also check if the ground is connected securely to the chasis. You lose power and clarity if the ground is lose.

So can I just plug 3 4 ohms svc directly to one channel to get 1.3 ohm load or does it have to be amp to sub, to the "middle" sub, to the last sub?

I have 2 8w7ae wired series circuit. What's the bet amp to push them where I'm going to get the most power but also the best sound quality. I have a 500/1 slash. But it's older one and I want to upgrade. What amp should I get ?

I have 2 12” in a box like that, but there’s only one area to plug in my speaker wires on the outzide when my 2 10” had 2 seperate thingz for the speaker wires, do I uze both pair of wires into the one connection that my new 12’z have or just 1 pair of wirez

okay so I have a question I have a rare vintage early 90s 18 inch Rockford Fosgate xlc I believe it's 8 ohm at 600 watt Max I'm pushing it with a boss 2400w amp before I switched and wired it to bridge mode it would not heat up the amplifier the amplifier always remained really cool down but when I went to Bridget I noticed that it was really heating up my amplifier why is that

hello sonic.i have a question about stiffening caps, actually I got a few. 1 how does a cap discharge power. does it only discharge what's needed or the full load of what it's rated for. 2 I have a 500 wat alpine amp but I'm still getting the whole dimming n amperage drop and I have a 4 farad sound stream. I'm aware of the rule of thumb of 1 farad per 1k wats so i was also wondering if I hooked it to my amp would I potentially damage my amp. don't kno if it makes a difference but I have my subs wired at 2ohms. thank you for your time and insight it's very much appreciated.

Alan, I agree with what you said, important when someone is new to learning something that you show them respect as we were all there once. But let’s not forget that if you are the person that is new you should show respect to those who taught you something new. For instance, let’s say you were completely new to fabrication, you learned a ton from someone else’s KZread channel, and then started making your own videos showing the same exact thing…. but without giving a proper shout out. That wouldn’t be showing very much respect would it? I think it’s important in this small community for us to all show respect. Something for you to think about…

I need some help. PLEASE I just installed 2 12 inch subwoofers P3 rockford and a rockford 1200x1 amplifier and I correctly wired them down to 2 ohms each and down to 1 ohms to amplifier. yet I still not hearing much unless I purposely turn the gain all the way up and the punch eq on it all the way up. But the manual that it came with tells me not to do any of that. If I turn it down below level 5 gain I can barely hear the subwoofer. I checked fuses, wires to the subwoofers and got 1 ohms to amplifier. Also the bass knob that it came with did absolutely nothing to help with the bass, same with the settings within my stereo that allow me to turn up the subwoofer. .5/10 if rating on a bass scale.

Nice diagram and drawings. Surely you'll have an app out if you don't already. I use RF's. Also I installed one of the HiFonics Brutus amps in a vehicle. It would be helpful to explain what all those nice knobs do.

I have a 740 watt pioneer amp and a kickercvr 12 and ik I wired it right at times it hits hard perfect other times you can tell when the bass drops it just gets quieter but not like distorted or nothing just quiter and theres a dramatic difference my amps not going into protect or seem to be getting hot it's wired at 2 ohms ATM I tried wiring at 1 ohm and 4 ohms and all does the same thing no matter how I wire it so I bought a 2.5 farad capacitor thinking that was maybe the problem tho it's stopped my head lights from dimming the bass still does the same thing and had no effect on the amp it remains anywhere between 13.8 volts to 14.2 so ik its not the voltage going threw I have 8 gauge wire going from the amp to speaker and the rest power ground wire are all 4 gauge I don't believe it needs anything bigger for a 740 watt amp tho it is older still I don't see it putting out any more than 1200 watts (and yes my ground wire is grounded good sanded it down to bare metal and have 14 bolt that the ground wire screws on) any suggestions on why this is happening?

Hey I have a question okay I got a nvx jad 1200 at dyno test it does 1300 rms certified I had a nvx vcw 15 1000 rms dual 2 ohm hooked up and hitting good but I took the sub out put it in a different car with a cheap power acoustik rz1 2500 only rated to be 2 ohm stable at dyno test of 630 rms at 2 ohm but it runs at 1 ohm no problem so that nvx 15 dint last 40 mins with that amp and it blew so I’m guessing either that amp does way more then 1300 percent me at 1 ohm or I have an electrical problem with my nvx amp that causes it to not run the potential wattage but I have a a second battery and the power wire I know is good power stay at 14.0 volts so could a bad ground cause the amp not to reach its potential

cant get any good bass very low bass i have a boss BV860B it says it coms with pre amp sub out do i have to have a amp ?

My question is how to get bass where I like it. I do not like the very low deep electronic bass. I want it to sound like being in front of a live band. Like a hard-hitting PA speaker. Many years ago I had 2 EV15b in a TL606 enclosure in a large SUV. Loved the bass sound, but do not have the room for even one 15 inch speaker and also know the sound can be tuned up using the right enclosure, but not sure of where to start. I am guessing I need something tuned to about 65 - 80 instead of 35hz. I may play with the subsonic filter to limit deep bass but not sure of that approach.

My sub is not hitting hard. Mtx road thunder. And I have pioneer gm 962 760w amp with pioneer deh-150 mp deck. Sub sounds super quiet. Barely hits even all the way up. Checked all my wires too... plz help. Installed in 94 dodge 1500

okay, i have been searching information from everywhere and cant find it. on my pioneer (MVH-S320BT) has weird problem, i tried to measure that "pre out" voltage from the rca cabels and on the stereo own terminal and i get only 0.020V and i have tried other multimeters so the problem is not on tools. im sure everything is right on wiring and everything "should" be unbroken. im sure i have done everything right on measuring but sill doesnt get that 0.2V reading. i hope someone can give some answer for that. and my other problem in my amp (sd1600.1d evo4 2ohm) il have measured the out put voltage from that and i get only about 14V (AC) out, thats when the volume from stereo is 3/4 and gain is almost max but when i put some bass boost i get the max voltage out, what is promised on the amp manual. so far im thinking is that stereo low out put voltage causing low out put voltage to my amp aswell? thanks for help already!

U helped thanks bro !

But you know another thing is that he might have his woofers in a sealed box and most people don't know certain speakers do not perform well and seal boxes I always recommend ported because when you build a sealed enclosure it has to be the right size specs for that speaker and most people just buy a box and just throw some speakers in there just to have sounds and then come to you the technician and ask you why is it not right first of all you got this big ass amplifier on two 10 inch subs in a sealed box and is going to sound okay but you get used to it a lot faster and that's a lot of people problem I recommend Port it because you don't need as much power they can take the power but the sound is just more dynamic when you can move air some people just don't know what they have a lot of times and a lot of people be having good equipment but sometimes I have to be honest it'd be alot of the shops just trying to make the quick dollar instead of explaining and giving a customer what they want instead of just throwing something in their car most people will pay for what they want but you give somebody some b******* and put it in the car and then you get responses like you are receiving today and I'm not saying all shop but it's a whole lot of them this just about the dollar instead of the love other music and the installation game I never said don't make your money but if you know this speaker and this amplifier is some b******* why sell it to the customer unless they say I want something cheap

Believe it or not the sub phase can be out of sequence of the rest of you stereo system. Meaning the sound takes a bit longer to catch up to the rest of the sound coming out of the other speakers, so you flip the switch in order to work in sequence with the rest of the system. Almost as if you reverse polarity for the speakers. This is beneficial when using multiple amps and different speakers firing in different directions. You can play with the phase switch on each amp to achieve the best sound from the stereo system.

Really dumb question and I think I figured it out gunna try after work but this is how my subs wired rn. Amp ( - ) two wires running to each ( - ) on each sub. SVC btw and then I have the positive running as if we're parallel. My subs randomly worked for 5 or 6 hours then next day they don't work. They work but sounds like shit and slowly cuts in and out. Guess that's the issue cuz I checked everything else. Any thoughts?

How to test phase. Get a double or triple A battery, touch positive end of battery to positive of wire and negative to negative of wire. If both speakers pop out, congrats, you're in phase. If not, then your not. Dont hold it there for too long cause you could risk overheating the coil.

You only going to get 700rms @ 4ohm from your amp. That's why its important to correctly match amp and subs.

I've never used one because I always use aftermarket radio with amplifier and subs. As far as hardly any sound from your system. It could be a number of things. I would make sure that your wired correctly first. You may have mixed some speaker positive and negative terminals the wrong way by accident. I do it sometimes. I would go to a shop and ask them what they think. I'd recommend selling your amp or subs to get the the proper amplifier/subwoofer combination. Your probably better off selling the speakers. If your going to have 2 DVC subwoofers. It's best to go with 2 4ohm DVC subwoofers if your amp lowest impedance load is 1ohm. If your going to use 1 2ohm DVC subwoofer.

Jovian Heng 4 ohms in paralel, if you put them in serial you get 16 ohms...

I get output that ain’t bad but I have 2 Memphis 10’s on a 750w dual channel amp and in my brothers car with his wiring they work great in my car with my wiring they aren’t that great. I have to use fade to get them to hit and so with the fade it only hits on 1 side of the car. I don’t have a RCA on my aftermarket 300$ pioneer hesd unit. I used a line output converter.

hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could help me out? my amp powers on but the subwoofers don't seem to receive any signal at all, and I'm puzzled because I had this problem and thought maybe it was the subwoofers or the head unit or the amp or the wiring in the sub box or the rca cables, but I've replaced all of these things with New ones and rewired the new subs and everything but my subs still won't work, any ideas?

Some amps have a high level input/low level input switch. Make sure it's set to low since you're getting your signal from rca's. Check your gain knob. If it's all the way down it's not gonna amplify anything. Check your headunit for the subwoofer level. Are your rca cables plugged to the correct ports on the headunit and amp? The headunit ports should be marked (sub) and the amp ports should be marked (input). They're also marked red and white.

My bass take forever to come in and when it do it plays for about 10 mins then the Bass will start deadening I just don’t know what to do???

where are you guys located

How can i tell the polarity when its in the box?

well if you the cone moves OUT when the bass hits it's in phase, if it moves IN it's out of phase.

Speakers move both out and in, If you are using a single sub it doesnt matter too much anyway as most headunits let you flip the polarity.

How to test phase. Get a double or triple A battery, touch positive end of battery to positive of wire and negative to negative of wire. If both speakers pop out, congrats, you're in phase. If not, then your not. Dont hold it there for too long cause you could risk overheating the coil.

theres no way you could overheat a cold with an AA or AAA battery. not enough voltage even if you left it on for hours. the coil barely draws any power or current at 1.5v

my subs were hitting good until i changed the battery because it was shot and corroded now with the new battery in the subs hit soft and slowly fades away what is the problem

Same thing happen to me !!😩

I have a 12 in Kicker sub sand a 1000 watt mono Boss amp. Had it installed and worked perfectly for about a year. Sounded awesome even with the stock speakers in my car. Now, I'm still getting bass but it doesn't pump as loud AND now the stock 6x9 are rattling. This NEVER happened beforehand. I NEVER touched the settings, I checked for any loose cables, and EVERYTHING is the way it was when it was installed. Any ideas as to what happened and what I need to check? I did notice 2 fuses. I didn't check those. Will those affect the sound?

nah fuses are just for power and only need replacing if blown

How about some love for the moderately not-so-newbie people. How do you design an efficient subwoofer enclosure with very little box rise. Sometimes just having a 2 cubic feet enclosure to a single 12 per manufacturer spec just does not cut it output wise and when you clamp test it, it rises to 4 ohms when wired to 1 ohm, sometimes higher depending on the frequency played. How are these other people building boxes with less than .5 ohms of rise, wired to 1 ohm and rising up to only 1.6 or so?

I have a 2018 Jeep JL that I had a local sound place put in a lc2 and a kicker amp with a 12” sub and it does not bump at all . It sounds horrible as if it does not work. Any idea what they did wrong ? I do not have the alpine system in my Jeep I have a 7” screen with no sud ect Sahara Jeep JL the new one out .. I really want to fix this problem.

i wired my 2 speakers wrong, 3:52 is how they should be right? Amp: Phoenix Gold R5.0:1 Octane R 5.0:1 Class A/B MonoBlock Amplifier Subs: 2x Rockford Fosgate P210S4 Punch Stage 2 10" 4-ohm subwoofer Rear Speakers: JBL Concert Series 9631 6" x 9" 3-Way Speakers w/Grilles Front Speakers: Factory Speakers Stereo: Pioneer DEH-S4100BT in Dash CD AM/FM Receiver amp is connected to subs only (im new to this so go easy)
