Re: Newly repaired PG Tantrum 500.2 barely audible output. H
I'm decent @ amp repair, but I would pretty much need the amp in front of me to figure out what's going on. Unfortunately, trying to trouble shoot stuff like this via threads is a pain staking process :( Something simple (and one of the first things) to try would be to adjust any and all pots, switc...

Re: Ryval V8001 radio static
You may, or may not have issues. It's hard to say, but you can try it easy enough and see. I'm sure that that amp has thermal protection... you may want to check into it though

Re: Ryval V8001 radio static
Sounds like the amp's switch mode output stage is not properly filtered. This can cause havoc on radio reception and is not all that uncommon with class d amplifiers. I'm pretty sure this is your problem since you state that the amp sounds fine when using cd or iPod. If you have enough slack in your...

You two children can enjoy a day off the Phorum... go out and see some sun. Maybe you will come back with a renewed perspective. If not, we'll see about adding some more time.

Re: Why does everyone hate the Ipad or Ipod?
I don't hate them... Actually, I think that if you have the room for one without it looking too gaudy in the dash then go for it! I don't care too much for the ones that "Soundman" does (side sliders), but there have been many other custom installs, including the one they just did in the F...

Re: Where have all the nice head units gone?
But the 9887 is cheap, you can pick them up for under $200.00 in good condition which makes buying a p99 tough for a small gain in performance . I would spend the 800 elsewhere. :?

Re: Where have all the nice head units gone?
Unfortunately it's really a matter of demand...With the "ipod" craze going on, it's hard to blame these manufacturers for not necessarily producing pricey head units when the demand for them is a fraction of what it once was :( However, IMO there's still a good selection out there... Pione...

Re: Any issues with using CCA over OFC cable?
CCA is inferior to OFC, but that doesn't mean CCA is worthless/useless. OFC has better conductivity. Therefore you can get away with a smaller guage cable of OFC (for the same current demand) when comparing to CCA. OR visa versa, just plan on a slightly larger guage of CCA when utilizing it over OFC.

Re: Technical Question about "Slew Rate"...
PG boasts using fast 25MHz devices in their manuals, which boils down to the same thing as high slew rate. Using fast devices reduces TIM distortion because a typical output stage uses large amounts of feedback. Even though an audio amplifier is used to output only low frequencies in the kilohertz ...

Re: pay the money or walk away---GOT BOTH SET UPs
IB is fantastic! But I agree with ttocs that it really needs to be executed well in order to perform well. It should also be known (probably even more so than with enclosures) what the physical and thermal limits of the drivers will be within the confines of IB installation. Both xmax as well as usa...

Re: pay the money or walk away
The two W0's should hit 130+ no problem. I've always liked the W0's for their price/performance value, but it's really no comparison when stacking them up against the W7. That's actually a killer price for the 13W7! Especially if it comes with an enclosure as well. The W7 will get you into the 140db...
