I have an Alpine MRPK300 Amplifier which was working fine when I pulled my car into the garage. When I left again an hour or so later, the amp was clipping so badly that I could not listen to any audio source except at extremely low volume. The system was bought about a year ago from an unreputable dealer...

At the moment its a pair of older kickers, no idea...gonna just try them to see if they are too old for now, will replace if I have to. But they appear to be in perfect condition being inside bandpass boxes...Not getting my hopes too high, but willing to at least check them out first. I wish there was...

I am planing to buy my first amp and install it myself. my question is: the speakers are disconnected from the HU and connected only to the amp? if so, does the amp has to always be ON in order to listen to my music? is it fine if I use the old speaker wires to pull the new ones in order to reach the...

Car - '05 Hyundai Sonata Installed a Sony MEX receiver and discovered the factory amplifier is external, in fact i have not located it yet. I've done the math and with my component speakers i might as well use the installed amp for some added power, to keep up with the 12's. Any thoughts on how to get...

This is a used amp (Alpine MRP-F240), and I'm suspecting that it is the problem. The remote turn-on lead from the head unit is carrying a constant 0.6 volts even with everything switched off (+12V with head unit "on"). I've confirmed that all of these head units (Porsche / Becker) do this and that it...

Hey everyone. I posted here before when I was upgrading my speakers and received a lot of really helpful advice, so I'm naturally returning with my new situation. I'll explain what I'm looking to do and then post the specifics about my current system: I currently have MB Quart speakers for my front and...

The Bose sound system has lost sound except for the driver's side. Actually, the rest of the car gets sound except during warm weather, which in South Mississippi means 10 months of mono sound and two months +/- of great sound. The Audi dealer says the amplifier needs to be replaced ($1,216 for part...
