The receiver I have is a Sony STR-D6520 5.1 Dolby DTS. As for the speakers, I have a left, center, right and two rear(surround) speakers.. On the back of the receiver there are ports for Left, Right, Center, and the 2 surround speakers.
I have 5 built in wall speakers(3 front, 2 back) with DTV, Vizio 42" Plasma and a Panasonic stereo receiver. The jacks for the front and back speakers are also in the wall. My problem is I tried some bare speaker wire on the center speaker to put into the banana plug connections. I am running...
Thanks I appreciate your help and everyone else's input on this. I also wanted to know if it is as simple as taking out the RF's and placing the new subs in it's place. If so, that sounds like something I could do myself.
Well you didn't really ask for goals but I have stated them before. I want something that has more kick, power, bass quality than the Rockford's. Do any of the sub's you mentioned provide that?

My trunk space is about 60 in. wide and the box I have now is about 26.5 in. wide. I have a 2 channel 980 watt amp and like I said I two 10 in. Rockford 300 watts. If you need more info then I can provide it. I just want to get subs that are an upgrade from what I have now. Something with a...
I have two 10" subs w/ amp and an Alpine head unit. I wanted to know the best way about getting the best quality sound/bass from this setup. Do I turn the levels up more on my amp and turn the bass levels down to virtually zero on my head unit? What do any of you recommend for a good quality...
I had my factory head unit and speakers replaced with an Alpine Head Unit to go along with my Alpine 6 disc changer. I had an FM modulator that played/controlled the CD's in the CD changer. I had this removed so I could control the CD changer through the Alpine head unit. I already have a sub...
This question is for a friend of mine. I couldn't answer her question so I thought I would get it from the experts on this website. Can you buy a head unit that doesn't require the antenna to function and go up and down.
I have two 10's in my trunk in a box and I notice when I get out of my car the trunk makes a loud rattling noise. Does anyone have any suggestions on getting rid of or at least reducing the rattling?
Hey Ken, I live in Indianapolis. We have a lot of Ovation stores along with the regular Best Buy and Circuit City. Does Ovation sell the Basslink? Any recommendations for Indy? Thanks
I think I have decided on what kind of system I will get for my car. I am going to try the Basslink sub/amp and a Alpine Head Unit with CD Changer controls. I think that gets rid of having to use an FM Modulator. Ken Wong, you mentioned that Circuit City is bad at installation. Do you have...
I appreciate all of the help on this. I have really thought about switching my Bose head unit to an Alpine head unit. What are your opinions on a bazooka tube? I know they are a sub/amp combo. I talked to a installer and he said that I can change the head unit, keep the same speakers and add a...
Just curious if there is any kind of static removal product that you can use on your car stereo. When I start my car in the morning, especially when it is very cold, my volume knob when make a static noise when turning up and down. Any suggestions?
I have two front speakers and two rear speakers. My budget is $500-$700 range. Would you suggest going with Alpine front/rear speakers and head unit since I already have a 6 disc Alpine CD changer or does it matter what brand? Is it the subwoofer or the amplifier that provides the crisp bass...
I have a factory Bose system/speakers in my car(90 Infiniti Q45) with Alpine CD Changer(w/FM Modulator). I am looking to upgrade my car stereo system with something a little more powerful and more bass and sound. I don't want to blow the neighborhood out but something that I can feel in my car...
I am want to be able to run my speakers through my VCR. Someone told me that the speakers sound better when going through the VCR. I have a DVD player, stereo receiver, 2 speakers, VCR, and TV. What should be connected to what for each of these to be able to get sound on my speakers through my...
Yes you can. I had to adjust from my wall to my VCR to RF Modulator "To TV" and "Ant In" cable connections. I also plugged the Receiver VCR1 out jack to VCR yellow video in jack. Then I was able to get a picture.
I have set up my receiver, DVD player and RF modulator with all of the appropriate connections. From the receiver to RF modulator, I have 3 connections in the VCR 1 Out on the receiver and the other 3 connections on the RF Modulator go into Audio (L/R) and Video. For the DVD to Receiver cable I...
Thanks for the response. My HD Box is put into the TV Input 1 - Y,Pb,Pr and the DVD is plugged into the TV Input 2 - Y(green color cable),Pb(blue),Pr(red). All of the plugs are int eh correct slots(as far as I can tell). The colors(red, green, blue)are matched up with the inputs on the back...
I don't know which section this should go in so I will start here. I am having a slight problem with my HDTV 49" JVC. When I watch a DVD or TV program in HD like the Sopranos, I notice the picture goes dark or changes color and then gets light and vice versa. This only happens for a split...
I have two Aiwa speakers and one of the speakers wire is too short to reach where I have placed my stereo receiver. Can I buy more speaker wire and connect that wire to the short wire on my Aiwa speaker and then that can reach the receiver. Is this possible or are there other solution? The...
