    Yes because a 200x4 amp can cleanly make 75 watts a channel, but a 75x4 amp won't cleanly make 200 watts a channel.

    Gain isn't volume and amplifiers aren't like light bulbs.

    It's coming along slowly, the only thing I'm waiting to figure out is where to mount my 200amp fuse box on my fuse tray that I had machined. A tad unrelated, would a circuit breaker be neccesary or should I use a mini-anl fuse to go inline before a relay/fuse box that I plan on using. For safety, bcae1 recommends using only fuses for car audio but it's an old site and I would still have mini fuses protecting my low power equipment. It's just on tacomaworld everyone is using a circuit breaker.
    https://www.waytekwire.com/item/4634...RO-RELAY-RTMR/ or you know I haven't bought the fuse/relay box yet is there a better option out there?

    I think I'll buy a helix for my dsp, any opinions? Right now I'm looking at 14 channels. And I could probably whitle it down however I plan on going active and having allot of speakers running of each channel so it images correctly with L/R. 4 midbass, 4 tweets, 4 midrange, 2 L/R inputs for subwoofer. However what is your guys opinion on this? Should I just go mono for midbass? It would save me three channels and allot of money most likely and it appears the new moscani, just taking it as an example, has mono midbass.


    Anyone know of a good shop in Tampa? Or any meets hopefully a car audio show near me?

    Will I be happy with 24bit for a Head Unit or should I get a single-din that has a larger bit rating, apple car play looks like it's really fun.

    What sites do you guys use for HD music downloads?

    Always looking for raw driver suggestions guys that aren't too pricy and have really good chart readings. They are very appreciated. Midbass / tweeters / midrange.

    Why a 14 channel DSP? Do you have 14 channels of amplification? What are the locations of the speakers going to be?

    Slo-blow , fast blow fuses matched to wire (amount of current).

    24-bit is great.

    I have never heard mono midbass?

    Some pay to listen service like Sirius for HD.

    Use google for car audio shops (ask em about real time analyzer)analyzer, if they don`t come right back on RTA, find another shop.

    A DSP isn’t a magic wand. You can’t wave it and fix problems. If you’re thinking of the other “magic wand”, a DSP won’t get your girlfriend off either.

    I have a really nice option of placing the midbass in a box under the rear seats. Tons of space. Is this a bad idea? It would look really classy.
