Stereo Makeover

Wha wha what! Me :)

Had a friend that used to say, "I'd rather be a smart arse than a Dumas!"

KB, you trying to say something here?

Kick his ass sea bass!

Wow Newty, didn't think you had such an itchy trigger finger :)

LOL, I almost fell out of my chair when I read that!!:p
That was funny. Good stuff on here!.

Hey Like I always say, that's what were here for...comic relief!

Woot ok got the new amps in today. Got them installed and sounds a lot better. The cabin speakers are rocking now.

The sub im concerned about. Its a Kicker C10 and i have it on the sub output of the Kicker ZX 700.5

The sub has 4 wires ran from it. Red White and Green Black. RW is + and the WG is - I assume the dealer did this because they ran a 4 wire loom and used both sets to make the transfer of the signal stronger.

My issue is it jsut seems the sub isn't hitting hard unless i pump a lot of extra bass into it. Turning the Bass up using the Gain and extra Bass on the amp. Then cranking the remote bass volume nob all the way up.

Can i bridge this 1 sub channel? Would i mix the + and - off the sub going to the amp?

Little lost for options.

C10's kick some butt and the class D channel is the 700.5 puts more than enough juice for it. I gather it's a Comp 10 4ohm single voice coil? I don't get the two wires thingy. What size is the wire? It should be at least 12 ga and preferably 10ga wire. I've installed three of those and all sounded great.

Yes its the 4ohm style speaker. It was hitting really good on the Kicker 200.2 that was bridged. I added some padding behind the speaker to fill in the open hole, i really didn't want to use spray foam in fear i would need to access that area. I used some extra padding i had. Just lightly filled the area in behind it. Im not suffocating the speaker am i?

The wire it pretty thin to be honest. Id say 16 possibly 12 guage, its the standard multi loom stereo shops are using, its in a whit jacket. Looks a lot like phone cable to be honest lol.

I could pull some 12 or larger threw if thats the real issue. I was able to pull the Bass voluum control cable threw the ski locker and stuff.

Thanks Moomba owners. I used a tip for running wires from port to starboard with out being able to see it or drill new holes.
