why does my stereo skip every time i turn up it up.... could it be that i need a bigger alt.?? i had a thunder 81000D (2 ohm stable) pushing 2 CVRs 12" ... i had em hooked up @ 1 ohm so i thought thats probly why... but i switched the amp now i have my bro-in-laws A1500HCT @ 1 ohm and ever time i turn it up it still skips... or could it have been the it did it before b/c of the ohms and now it does it b/c of the subsonic filter???.... and it might just be me but i think it skips less with mp3s rather then with regular CDs.. thanks for any help/opinions given
haha when i had a sony explode HU it would shut off when teh bass would hitt, then i got a new alpine hde-9856 HU and for some reason i dont have any probelms anymore but my lights till dim pretty bad when i had my amp working but my amp is blown now witch sux , ill be getting all new stuff soon, ohh yea sry for cuuting in this forum but i had the same problem when i had my system in and i now have no system only subs with no power lol, and no problems now that i have a new Hu and no system
yes..... the alpine has beefire caps... that can help at lower voltages..
the caps wills torage energy and when the voltage really drops it gives th eenergy needed it but sometimes its too much voltage drop that the caps wont help....
alot ofpeople says a small cap on the battery helps alot but its dangerous..... all of the heat the cap can explode.. like near the headunit u can wire a .5 farad cap and will help alot on the sq ( no clippin from the h/u)
i checked again and it skips like if the cd was scratched and when it plays mp3s it just all shuts off... well every thing stays on but its like if i hit a big pot hole or something
i had the problem with a cd player doing that... the cd player was bad... no voltage problems or anything, i could even disconnect the subs and have the amp off with the hu up and it would skip. I thought i had to much bass and not a tight enough mount to the dash... but bad HU... is it a Kendwood?
no its a panasonic... if i turn the sub vol. off it won't do it no more.. imma try to turn the amp only half way up see what happens... but can it also be that i have my stock speakers still straight to the stereo???think it would change alot if i was to put my 4 channel on my stocks?
