Re: Xenon X200.4 making static/whitenoise?

Ok, it actually does appear it's the Audison Bit Ten making the noise. I found some others having the exact same issue as me. Glad my Xenon is safe!!! (not so good for the Audison).

Xenon X200.4 making static/whitenoise?

My setup is in a 2011 WRX. Stock HU sends high level into a Audison Bit Ten. That feeds both the Xenon X200.4 and a PDX M6. I am using the auto turn-on lead from the Audison that flips an internal relay when it sees voltage on the speaker line which sends remote power out to the amps. The problem I ...

Questions about sending in my amp for repair

I'm sending in an X1200.1 to PG for repair. Their site says that the flat rate doesn't include cosmetic items, circuit boards or amps that had unauthorized repair. I had a shop look at the amp and they may have paritally disassembled it but no repairs were done. Is PG going to scoff at this? I was t...

Well, live and learn......

Live and learn right guys? The monkey at the electronics place called today and said 4 of the outputs are blown and quoted me $275-$300 to fix it. He said it was $150 in parts alone. I laughed. :lol: :o Then he told me that he can't get it back together because it's in pieces until Thursday. I cried...

Cool Cool, I hope you don't need any outputs the IRF360LC can be a bit of fun to locate. Digi-Key has them at between 9 and 12 bucks each, just in case you need one or three... Good luck ! ...C :) If they sound sketchy at this place at all I've already gotten the green light to send it to PG from t...

Again realize that it does depend on the situation of the amp. And what kind of amp. The flat rate fee may be expensive if the work is cheap.... If the amp is blown all to heck, and is obviously not a $50 fix, paying PG to fix it is worth every penny. This is pretty much right along my line of thou...

They seem to go for about $225 plus shipping when I see them pop up on ebay. I bought it for $280 shipped. I'm taking it to a local place that was recommended by two car audio shops and I'll see what they say. It's only $15 to have it looked at so I'll see what they say. My budget for this is blown ...

Well, sending it in to Phoenix Gold is out of the question. I am not going to pay $135 + another $25 to ship it so $160 to get an amp replaced that is worth $200. I will have to try to find another one or get this one repaired locally. You say there doesn't look like there is anything wrong but don'...

X1200.1 Going into protect

Hey guys, I took a road trip this weekend and had just put in my X1200.1. It sounded great all the way up and I set the gains with a DMM but I only set them to where the amps was putting out about 50v AC so I had it detuned a ways. On the way home, the amp went into protect when I was listening at b...

Great pics man!! I would have loved to do something like that, but alas this is the girlfriend's rig and this was all I could talk her into. I also will be putting the sub up on the fender like that, but on the opposite side. The amp will go on the passenger side because there are more panel covers...

If this is really going to cause failure how come sooooo many people run this way without issue AND most manufacturers recommend this type of setup with their 4-channel amps? I can understand that this scenario is possible but I don't think it's all that likely or we'd be seeing many many more failu...

The voltage at the deck has very little to do with the voltage at the amps. You would want to check the voltage at the amp.

With that being said, you shouldn't experience much voltage drop from the battery to the amps.
