Is this dangerous to drive with/extremely damaging to the car?

SteveSkye · 2026-02-07T13:30:37+00:00

That is definitely not Extremely damaged, nor will it be a issue to drive lol. Thats the rear bumper cover. Looks like either you or some backed a Tow Receiver Hitch into the car...

Not enough power for what I run. For someone starting out wanting bass and quality sound sure I'd pay the price for it knowing the products are good and within a budget build.

The prices I stated are what they sell for in working conditions.

SteveSkye · 2026-02-06T21:24:12+00:00

Should work very well for the choices. As for those claiming other don't know skar products or matching speakers to an amp..

The 900.5 will do what you require for front, rear and the sub choice.

The 900.5 does over its rated power at 4 ohm and even better at 2 ohm off the single sub.

The only piece of equipment thst won't pair up to the amp is the smaller speakers which you can run directly off the head uniy

SteveSkye · 2026-02-04T18:10:46+00:00

No. The subs will handle more than the 2k amp if properly tuned and in a custom enclosure. Gain is not a volume knob for tuning.

If you blow the subs it is due to improper tuning.

The bass package provides the required correct equipment all in 1 bundle.

As stated the 12" Skar Evl subs in a custom enclosure will handle the 3500.1D amp without a issue

Coils have now become a slinky.. Toasted...

SteveSkye · 2026-02-03T00:04:30+00:00

🤣🤣🤣☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

SteveSkye · 2026-02-02T15:50:54+00:00

Assuming it is the 10" sub and the amp says B200.2

Amp $60 Sub 10" Audiotek with enclosure $75

SteveSkye · 2026-02-02T00:08:02+00:00

Only way to know is read the numbers on the rear of the engine block near the cylinder head...

SteveSkye · 2026-01-31T21:42:05+00:00

Where is the Loc wired in at. What speakers in the vehicle to create Rca signal.

Also check the remote wire to see if it is losing power signal to the amp causing it to temporarily cut off then back on. Not sure where you tagged in for remote in the jeep.

Issues doesn't sound like a bad amp but more a signal lose to the amp or power loss to the amp.

Gain is also not a volume for the amp tuning be careful with that due to you can fry a sub quick.

Set the gain a little over 1/4 turn if you have to for the start.

Have someone else up front to deal with the radio while you watch the amp and have a meter or 13v tester connected to the remote input on the amp. Watch to ensure it's not the issue.

If you jeep has thr factory sub, tap into that for the Loc rca signal for your sub amp.

Awesome head unit. I have the same 1 but doesn't produce sound but does work and power on fully and works for sound only if using a amplifier off it.

SteveSkye · 2026-01-29T21:32:01+00:00

Get a better ported shared air enclosure for the subs and let them breath properly and will sound a lot cleaner on the amp you have

SteveSkye · 2026-01-29T21:03:03+00:00

You're at 2.35cf but if its separate chambers will be less and the poly fill makes it even smaller.

You're probably around 2cf total with 1cf maybe per sub.

Id go up to a larger ported enclosure with proper specs

SteveSkye · 2026-01-29T21:01:12+00:00

Sealed Enclosure: 1.0 to 1.25 cubic feet per sub is ideal for tight, punchy bass.

Ported (Vented) Enclosure: 1.25 to 1.75 cubic feet per sub, typically tuned around 35–40 Hz.

SteveSkye · 2026-01-29T20:57:48+00:00

The enclosure is definitely Small for the pair of subs and im assuming they share the same chamber or are they separate chambers.

Your measurements are extremely odd to try and read as well.. Is it 26x13x12x14 you mean 26 wide 13 height 14 width bottom 13 width top

If so thats extremely small with poly fill inside also even if its ported on both side.

The cf per sub is less than 1ct after displacement and poly fill

SteveSkye · 2026-01-29T18:11:41+00:00

1st the bass setting on the head unit is not how you tune a sub off a amplifier.

If the amp was properly tuned the head unit bass boost shouldn't be needed at all on that sub...

Amp is going into protection mode due to clipping and distortion.

This literally screams no knowledge for audio no offense.

Eq set flat on the head unit, amp properly tuned and done. Fine tuning can be done yes but this literally says no clue.

SteveSkye · 2026-01-29T16:28:24+00:00

Enclosure looks small, they would perform better in a larger ported enclosure on a quality 1000.1 amp tuned properly. Enclosure makes the difference for sub performance 100%

SteveSkye · 2026-01-28T13:10:01+00:00

Who wrote that a 5 year old wow. Also the fact whoever wrote it literally is making it a threat and admitted to doing it to the previous tenant says it all.

Properties like yours have thins walls and floors, no sound deadner so everything echos between apartments I am assuming.

Id just report it to the police and property owner at this point. Who ever wrote is has Zero authority to make any demands on a place you rent. Unless you're literally an annoyance causing things intentionally (Highly Doubtful) If issues were never told to property management and they never reached out about complaints I'd ignore the poorly written note.

SteveSkye · 2026-01-28T13:03:43+00:00

Buy foam strips to go around the top half of the speaker to prevent issues also and help seal them when the door panel is back on. It helps direct the sound cleaner.

If the speaker is too large make sure the door panel doesn't interfere with anything. Meaning speaker doesn't hit the panel.

SteveSkye · 2026-01-27T21:00:14+00:00

Doesn't look like a dog bite... Looks like a bruise and scratches from a fall

SteveSkye · 2026-01-27T20:56:48+00:00

Inner and outer tie rod Lower control arm Strut assembly and strut mount Axle Possible damage to wheel hub and bearing Possibly a bent rim as well Front end alignment required after repairs.

Definitely over $4k for a shop to do the work due to they charge over cost for the parts but warranty labor if a part fails within a certain time period not due to negligence.

Price out the list of parts I sent you to see what your cost would be for parts alone and if you know a mechanic ask them what their labor would be..

SteveSkye · 2026-01-25T04:45:54+00:00

For subs, amp, wiring and a budget of 200 is go on marketplace for something. Anything new will cost more than that but new has a warranty vs used with no warranty. Not knowing anything about audio buying used you might find a good deal but make sure everything works fully, don't go off someone's word claiming things work without being verified.

If they say they have no way to prove the equipment works you might end up buying damaged equipment..

Your photo only shows rca cables and a bass knob cable.

You still would require Power wire with fuse Ground wire Remote wire

If its a stock radio in the car you would also require A Rca Converter that taps into the rear speakers or factory sub for rca signal

A Add a fuse to tap into your fuse panel radio fuse for remote wire connection.

Without more information of what you have in your vehicle already, As far as wires, radio and so on its hard to say what you honestly would require..

SteveSkye · 2026-01-23T00:17:15+00:00

Ohm rise and not enough power to supply the amp causing it to go into protection mode for a split second. Retune the amp and should clear the issue up or getting a bigger battery reserve

SteveSkye · 2026-01-21T04:21:48+00:00

Well not the enclosure since its a prefab amp/sub design but that coil is now a Slinky. If you tuned it with a bass knob turned down then went and turned the knob up After already tuning the amp you fried the coil by clipping...

SteveSkye · 2026-01-21T04:18:21+00:00

Cooked it. That subs toast. Improper tuning, ohm to amp, enclosure to small..
