Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Car Audio / December 2005where would i go?
to get my bass tube repaired? Where would I go? to get more information from you? Is it a blown speaker? Did you break the frame?  Signature- AUSTIN BECKER > to get my bass tube repaired? LOL >Where would I go? to get more information from you? > >Is it a blown speaker? Did you break the frame? its power is on it just isnt making any noise at all. im pretty sure i have checked all the wiring. is there anywhere that would tell me wahts wrong with it? like should i go to a local car audio place and be like whats wrong with this crap or what kind of new sub can i get that isnt too expensive like 150 at most including the amp its an Omega BTA12 not one that is worth a sh.t, but yes, I would take it to a local dealer. make sure they are an authorized dealer for what you have. If not, they'll probably do nothing. Signature- AUSTIN BECKER > or what kind of new sub can i get that isnt too expensive like 150 at > most including the amp i doubt that anyone is an authorized dealer of Omega POS Here's what I was able to scrounge up that will probably sound pretty decent. I'd be willing to bet it'd be better than what you have..... go to www.ebay.com and get the Phoenix Gold R12D 12" 250w rms dual 4 ohm voice coil sub (wire the voice coils in parralel to get 2 ohms) ($60 shipped) Directed Audio 250D 250w rms @ 2 ohms, class d monoblock amplifier ($59 shipped) that puts you at $119, and you can probably get a 12" box from a local car audio dealer for the remaining $30. That'd be my suggestion for a $150 budget Signature- AUSTIN BECKER > or what kind of new sub can i get that isnt too expensive like 150 at > most including the amp thanks not a problem... let us know what you decide to go with, and how it sounds. Signature- AUSTIN BECKER > thanks im cosidering getting the stuff u mentioned, just one prob. when i got my tube installed it has an amp in it already. and the back of my receiver doesnt have rca outputs. so the guy spliced the connection from my rear left speaker to the sub using which looks like a plug with like 8 different colored wires that go into it and connect to the tube, but the tube does have rca. how would i hook up this amp and sub using what i have? and is it easy to install all this? i think i could do it but not sure. also how hard is it to put a sub into a box? anything special? A Line Output Converter (LOC) would be a good idea. Takes the high-level inputs direct from the wires going to the rear speakers, usually both left and right, and turns them into RCA pre-outs. There are some aplifiers that have High-level inputs also that you might look for, but many people say these aren't quite as good as a quality LOC, which allows you to adjust it as you see fit. http://www.installer.com/hilo/ is a good page for that.

The page I linked shows generally how to install them. Typically, you'd just patch into the rear speakers as they're closer to the trunk and amp, but depending on the vehicle you may be able to just as easily patch in up front and run a longer RCA to the back. There's no real given way to do it. Brandonb > where exactly does one of these connect? thanks for the advice! thanks ill just hook it up to wear my wires are already hooked up i just called a local place and the guy said to bring it in, so im gonna see what the damage i$ and see waht ill do, thanks for everything tho its power is on it just isnt making any noise at all. im pretty sure i have checked all the wiring. is there anywhere that would tell me wahts wrong with it? like should i go to a local car audio place and be like whats wrong with this crap |
