rite i have a 10inch 800watt fli trap sub and amp enclosure, a mutant 12 inch sub and a 200 watt amp can i use these all together if not can anyone recommend anything? if i can how do i set them all up fli is 1 way other amp is 2 way

[WelshyUK]

How many audio outputs do you have on the headunit??

[samsvsx]

4 i think

[WelshyUK]

If it is four then your laughing, use 2 each for either amp a power splitter and connect up the remote wire to both this will set them both up. Couldn't tell you what it would sound like but I know that the fli trap sub and amp would be enough on it's own!!! hope that helps buddy!

[Coonper]

Dont run both of them, it will sound nasty mate.

Both the subs will sound different, and it wont sound nice!

Best off to use just the fli trap. The 200w amp could be used to amp up your front speakers!

That amp is absoloute poo, and it will probably break whatever you power with it.

The fli one is definitely better. What do you mean by crackly?

It must be either set up incorrectly or not earthed properly.

[samsvsx]

it earthed to the bolt that holds my back seat in, nd the red wire goes to the battery, remote and the plug things are in the back of my head unit

[RK_Audio]

is it sanded down to bare metal under the earth wire?

[samsvsx]

erm i dont no ive not done it!! if i do that then will it work? it only crackles on when ive got high volume on my head unit

[Coonper]

Thats not a good place to earth it to! And that probably why it crackles.

Take it off there and earth it to the screw under the rear bench. And make sure you sand off the paint so it makes a good connection.

Also, what is the gain set to on the amp?

[samsvsx]

erm i dont no i tried messing about with the twiddly nobs earlier but crackle where ever i position them, also i dont know if i my earth wire will reach that far its quite short

[Coonper]

Those knobs will determine whether it crackles or not.

Try and stretch your earth lead and see if its any better.

Also, make sure the polarity of the speaker cables are right. I.e. negative to negative and pos to pos. If any of these are wrong it will definitely crackle! Try this first!
