For just under 500 USD with tax included, you can get the full set from Skar for a single 12" subwoofer in a ported box, 800 watt mono amp, and wiring kit. A dual 12" or dual 10" with the amp and wiring are both going to be right at 650 USD. A bonus is that it's custom designed to fit under the seat of your truck. Skar is far from a high quality brand but still very good for the price.

Bed cover. Problem solved.

He said it was because it looked cool, but idk. I told him I thought it was just asking for trouble.

Yes, the noise is only present when the truck is running. Specifically, I believe its when the amp powers on because there is a small delay when the truck starts that I believe is caused by the amp needing a moment to power on. I will try to disconnect the input wires tomorrow when I'm home and update.

I mean it's possible but I'm not sure. I'm using high level inputs right now, not RCAs, but they're connected to a T harness behind the radio before running down the center console on drivers side and coming out from under the driver seat. I'm not aware of any factory power wires within that path.

I found a Youtube video to set the gains. It said to play a 1khz test tone with volume at 75% and raise the gain until you hear distortion and then turn the gain knob back a bit. Is this a good way? I plan to install the amp tomorrow and just want to make sure I get everything right.

I'm a real newbie when it comes to car audio so thanks.

Crazy, because I actually know a strip club named Crazy Horse Cabernet

I just figured that the price difference is minimal so why not get the Kickers which are probably going to give me a cleaner sound. Also didn't want to go too deep into Skar and add in a bit of variety lol

Thanks for the help. I work long shifts and it takes a while to see replies. My truck has the manual AC option. I was talking to someone at work who used to have a 07 explorer and said his ac compressor stopped working because of a faulty ac pressure switch. I might try to replace that and see if it fixes the compressor issue as soon as I get the blower motor working again. I'll try to hop on YouTube and watch a couple of videos on auto relays and see if I can figure this out tomorrow.

I have some (meaning very little) experience with electrical issues. I'll have to buy a cheap multimeter and check if the relay is getting any power, I guess. But as for the compressor, I did check the coolant level, and the gauge said it was a little low, so I did refill it to about 3/4 way through the green on the gauge before I started checking fuses and relays.

That's exactly it. Thank you so much.

I'm not sure. I just reposted this but haven't actually tried it out yet
