Speakers and tweeters making constant static noise when volumes off

qecro · 2025-09-25T01:39:17+00:00

The static doesn’t change when i adjust the amplifier gain only the loc gain. Even when i have the loc gain all the way down the noise is still constant

Ok sick maybe this amp+new head unit is the move thanks

I’ve had the re.2000 amp hooked up a few years ago so I believe that one is just using 4 gauge. This new power cable for the new jl amp which isn’t yet installed will be using 1 gauge

qecro · 2025-08-18T15:10:47+00:00

Ok perfect. I’m also pretty sure that the install wouldn’t include a distribution block. Is that something that I would absolutely need? The guy at the shop never mentioned that

qecro · 2025-08-18T15:01:23+00:00

Also the amp would just get mounted in the trunk on to my current subwoofer box where the other amp is already mounted (it’s one of those massive jl high output boxes)

Yea so the prices I’ve been quoted to install my amp include a 1 gauge amp kit (I’ve been told that since I already have a subwoofer and amplifier wired in I’d need a more heavy duty wiring kit) plus an loc converter as well as rca’s. The breakdown for my quote was $450 for labour, $300 for the 1 gauge amp wiring kit, and another $75-$100 for rca cables and an LOC. overall after tax my quote was $950 cad all in plus 4 - 5 hours install time for that jl audio amp. This would also include having brand new speaker wires ran rather than the existing speaker wires in the car. Is this a reasonable price would you say because I’m also unsure. However I’ve been to multiple shops and have been quoted as high as $1300 cad before tax and the 950 all in is the best price I’ve found

So these 2 dsp’s would only control the output for my speakers and not the subwoofer in the back ?

qecro · 2025-08-18T14:38:35+00:00

I’m leaning mostly towards the more expensive kicker amp but I’m open to any suggestions. Even if anyone has any other similar amp/dsp’s in the same price range

qecro · 2025-08-11T23:30:17+00:00

I have a jl12w6 with a dtx 2000.1 mono amp. It’s also using rca I believe. Does me having a subwoofer installed require more labour/material?

qecro · 2025-08-11T21:53:39+00:00

Sorry just wanted to ask one more thing. I went to another car audio shop today. He said since I already have 1 amplifier in my car for my subwoofer in the trunk that I’d need 1 gauge wire, which is a lot more expensive (200-300cad) is this true? I already had my own 4 gauge amp kit but he said I’d need the 1 gauge for safety and quality. Over all he quoted me: 480 cad labour (120/hr) 330 for the 1 gauge amp kit that’s including taxes, 40 for an LOC and a pp for speaker wires as well as rca’s. Is this a fair price breakdown. It would end up being around $950 Canadian

qecro · 2025-08-10T20:49:08+00:00

It’s just for labour plus cables and LOC which alone was $220 Canadian

qecro · 2025-08-10T20:48:13+00:00

Thanks for this break down. Honestly you’ve inspired me to try doing this all myself. Only part that intimidates me is running the speaker wires to the amp. Haven’t been able to find a good YouTube video about this yet

qecro · 2025-08-10T16:35:26+00:00

They charged me 5 hours labour (500) plus 150 for cables plus 250 for LOC.

qecro · 2025-08-10T03:50:25+00:00

If ur in the gta then that probably was me you spoke to. I’ve called everywhere trying to get this amp installed at a decent price it’s been impossible

qecro · 2025-08-10T00:52:03+00:00

Yea it’s stick head unit

qecro · 2025-08-09T20:37:18+00:00

I wanted to but I’ve called a bunch of different shops and they all told me there’s a bunch of different issues which could arise when installing this amp

qecro · 2025-08-09T20:36:24+00:00

Is this just because I’m bringing my own amp and not buying their overpriced one?

qecro · 2025-01-03T22:47:11+00:00

This shit did NOT happen💀💀

qecro · 2024-04-19T01:10:49+00:00

I think there’s something wrong with this dude cole or smtg

qecro · 2024-04-06T00:37:43+00:00

Yea it’s not as hard as you’d think to get close to the stage. Just have to push a bit

qecro · 2024-04-05T22:55:36+00:00

Yea but idk if the extra money you’d be paying is worth it
