    Overdrive pulley or 200+ amp alt.?

    If you buy the dual ALT kit from DC you will no longer have an issue with supplemental power to your amps or any additional batteries, equipment etc you add in the future. You can add your stock alt with the new Alt for not much additional money. Make the current stock alt the slave alt...

    What a pain. Need some experienced help please.

    Thanks for the suggestions but all set on aftermarket equipment with the exception of a replacement for the Pillar tweets that will fit stock location. I'm mainly just needing more information about the current Bose system which GM just doesn't seem to publish specs for. If the bose amp...

    Looking to build system

    Right on. Hey if we all loved the same stuff we wouldn't have so much choice for aftermarket. Those Diamond comps do sounds nice, never used but have heard quite a few. Hell you may want to check with diamond to see if they have a "midbass" geared 6.5, lots of companies make them. A few others...

    Alts? https://www.dcpowerinc.com/alternators/chevrolet/suvs.html Best in the business. Powerhouses and great service. In my opinion I wouldn't try for different when it comes to comps. There are some really nice ones out there that are not well known but in door comps that usually means WOW...

    What a pain. Need some experienced help please.

    The depth and surround makes for a difficult fit in the pillars. I've had depth issue with one aftermarket and surround problems with another so I'm looking for a speaker that fits in the space provided. I will do sound deadner on the Mrs Tahoe but I'll be damned if I'm breaking out the...

    Gotta go with the 4 15"s!! 15's need a very surprisingly small amount of airspace. 3 cubes per for WOW SPL if you have the power to back it up.

    Alternator Whine...HELP!

    The whine gets more intense the closer you get them due to the increasing EMI from the bigger current loaded cable and yes without the RCA connection being solid it will compound the issue. The head unit pigtail should be able to be replaced pretty cheap and easy. Call Kenwood if the deck is...

    Alternator Whine...HELP!

    Well from what you have said and looking at your wiring I would say one of 2 things. (noise issues are such a pain.) My last truck I ripped everything out only to find the issue was a bad ground shield on my AudioControl line driver. 1. An easy quick change would be to move the power...

    New Guy need stereo help!!

    1 sub - 15" firing to the rear. Build the box using all space your willing to give up and port the box up towards the ceiling. Tune the box between 35-39hz and let the bass roll!! Big cabin area for the one speaker in limited space so make sure you meet the minimum RMS power for the sub and...

    I will take a crack at this one. Because I’m a fan of the outrageous for audio, so much of a fan I cant stand to watch I like to be in the mix. Built my first house speaker at 13 and been an audio junkie ever since. I’m 33 now and my cars have progressively gotten louder over the years. Nothing...

    Alternator Whine...HELP!

    The problem was answered by your very first test. Once the same rca cable had failure on both channels (front and then on rear) you need to deal with the one issue you know is solid. As stated earlier you could have a pinch. While running the cable did you cable catch a piece of sheet...

    Looking to build system

    I ran a Hifonics Collosus in my truck for some time and they are a good choice in amplifier. Careful with your electrical because the power supplies for Hifonics tend to be current hungry. If you run 2 amps you will want to replace your battery with one better suited for a beating. (Big...

    What a pain. Need some experienced help please.

    I just got done completely gutting my Daily driver 2004 Tahoe and replacing all the carpet and installing sound deadner on all the metal. I have a few questions surrounding the stock equipment. Any help would be huge for me at this point because I'm running out of cash quick. The person before...

    sub choice

    A7Mad - Little late on reply but better late than never. Choose a sub to meet your exact needs for price, space and enclosure type. The following subs will easily meet all 3 of your needs and provide great performance sealed or ported while using under 3 cubic feet of airspace for the pair. The...

    JL Stealth Box questions

    Buy a small piece of SoundDeadner (1-2 sq ft) and take the trim off your center console to apply to metal. Just cut the deadner into small strips. In addition if you do the same where the console meets the dash your vibration issue will be gone. ---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ----------...
