Hey all, I'm a broke high schooler with my mom's old Explorer, and this car hasn't done me wrong (I actually love it), except for blowing sub and frying the amp. I've been trying to wire these godforsaken aftermarket amp and sub up to the factory head unit in my '01 Eddie Bauer for...

A little video I made of me trying out this product called Peel and Seal. People have used it as a sound dampening alternative. I believe it helped a lot, and wasn't that expensive. Only took about an hour because I only did the back hatch. Here is the video...

Alright I'm going to try and keep this simple. I'm starting to feel the urge to cry. I've spent 9 hours on it today, with 3 friends helping, who know a lot as well. I'm in the USA and it hasn't been above 8 degrees once today and its been snowing. I'm a extremely frustrated. And cold. Please...

I have a 2007 Explorer XLT Ironman package with all original audio components installed. My subwoofer cuts out randomly, and if I leave things alone it usually comes back on randomly. However, if I wish to get it working sooner I can usually shut the radio off for 5-10 seconds, turn it back...

Well, I have a 95 explorer eddie bauer with the JBL system in it. The sound was always great, but then a couple days ago the sub died. The bass is distorted by crackling with an occasional loud static sound that lasts a couple seconds. This started right after I had listened to the stereo rather...

I drive a 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT. I've invested in both new speakers and a new head unit. I've delayed the purchase of a sub woofer because I feel as if there is no where to put the darn thing where it wont be a huge inconvenience. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey everyone, I'm exploring the possibilities for my sound system and I thought I'd pose a question I've been pondering... I've had a JL Audio 8w3 dual (2-ohm) voice coil powered by about 150 rms watts for years now. It has suited me pretty well (although my favorite sub was a 10" alpine...

I did find out I have a premium dual audio radio with rear controls and 6 disc cd changer but no sub. I want to add a oem sub and speaker to it. Yet I just found out I have no sub wiring harness. I bought the amp, box, and harness from a junk yard. I wired it all in but no sound (it work...

Hey guys, I've got a 92 Eddie Bauer with the Audiophile sound system and was trying to install a Sony Xplod cdx-gt630ui in place of my old HU. I bought the Scosche FDK8B wiring harness to wire it in, but realized that it didn't allow for the sub. In the pic below you can see the two heads I...

Hello All I'm simply trying to replace the subwoofer speaker in my stock JBL system in a 1992 Ford Explorer. The problem is that no one seems to know what the ohm rating is for the stcok amp (it's not even clear from the vehicle shop manual). Crutchfield identified a 4 ohm speaker that...

I just got a new sub and amp set up last week, Sony X-plod 400watt and JBL 12" sub in vented box. System sounds great other than a really weird annoying whistling noise coming form the subwoofer. :mad: It the pitch goes up when I press on the accelerator too. I can't hear it when I have the...

I am new to speakers and also to building anything like a speaker box with an amp or anything like that. I know the products here are cheap and probably not best quality, but this is purely an experimental build, and I want to know if it would work. The amp I am looking at is the Kicker 100W...
