Man Eric you are Fast! Yes, I do have a soldering iron; I used worked for a firm called northern airborne back in the late 1990's; that's where I learned my soldering skills. I am an EE although in my employment I do very little with respect to what a typical EE does. I have my own oscope, DMM, powe...

Hey thanks! Eric is the guy I was actually going to talk to. I've been on this forum for a few years just never made any appreciable posts. I recall talking to Eric once a couple years back; A real nice guy and I've seen his work via web articles - firs class. Eric actually is the one who did the ca...

Here is the deal. From google, I saw that smelling speakers might be a condition of a bad amp. That is, check for DC voltage coming out of the outputs of the amp. remember, I have two rte 66 classic limited ed amps. Classic might be the problem! (who knows what it's been through!) So, I measured eac...

Ok, so post a little too long. The remote turn on cct is working now. What might have caused my speaker (only one appears to have done this) to start smelling at low volume; suspect a bad amp... Ground.. What?

First off, this is long only for completeness; am hoping to avoid "did you try". Present Problem: Clarion Head unit; "music catcher" model - so as few years old but shuts off as soon as I power up. Couple days in testing prior that: the system (and RTO) was working;amps turned on...

Thanks Marco, after careful reading you are correct.

as to using the Rt 66 crossovers here is the thing. First I sourced the EQ and the two crossovers. After extensive installation\; that is wiring and component install I firmed up the amps. Possibly it was an oversight by yours truly but the PG install digram suggests 4 amps for the system. They show...

Hi, guys. I installed two classic route 66 "dream" amps in my boat. I know boats and old school amps not a great mix but I did spend the time to conformal coat the boards so I personally feel they'll be fine. That's not my question; Here it is: What RNET values are needed for the for the f...

Thanks for the eq info. Just curious, I do not own an eq 232 but have the 215x... is that one a similar issue where you need to change cable ends... That is, say you choose to use the tBA 1 set RX and tx. Is that a safe bet as opposed to using the professional line driver unit? What were the TBA1 rx...

I have a couple old school limited edition amps, a head unit of course, a professional line driver, TBA1 balanced line driver set, and an eq 215x model. Can this stuff be integrated together? What about the EQ 232...would that work in this system with these components? summary: I was wondering simpl...
