Bronze Member Username: Chada08Post Number: 27 Registered: Jan-05 | Hey again, just a few more little questions then i might finally be able to leave u alone lol. First of all, i'm tryin to find some rear view pics of my headunit to see if they have duals jacks for the rca's. if there's only one, i would just need to buy a 2 female / 1 male to combine the two right? http://www.jvc.com/product.jsp?modelId=MODL026964&pathId=54&page=3&archive=true Also, my amp's manual suggests using a 1 farad stiffening capacitor... is that just that, a suggestion? cause i know you guys have talked on here able how little they might help, and you said that my alternator would be fine, so i was just wondering how important you thought that was. http://www.mtxaudio.com/caraudio/products/amplifiers/MXA_Class_D.pdf Also with the amp.. A) the gain is set to match my head unit, which wouuld be at 2V right? and B) What would adjusting the crossover frequency selection nob (page 10) do? thanks again man |

Bronze Member Username: Chada08Post Number: 32 Registered: Jan-05 | So for example, if i were to set it as say 100hz, then everything 100 and below would go to the subs, and everything above would go to the other speakers? thanks |
