[@jaysrandomnesschannel]

@@elguapo5875 you can't just buy a "telephone cable"...it has to have the correct number of wires inside of it. The Epicenter uses four wires / contact leads. If it's not working I guarantee you bought the cheapest one you saw and it's TWO WIRE. 😂

Hey just so you know for the wire ferrules they are 10gauge or smaller they sell a crimp tool just thought I'd let you know because I saw you didn't crimp any of your smaller gauge wire like the remote wire or the wire on the bass processor end.

I never run crossover or epicenter into amp power will cause noise distortion and make amp pull more power away from the processor. Get a second battery or distribution block to get equal power all around and I make separate ground for every ground

[@lalogvlogs4344]

True boss, i will be getting 2nd battery and doing the big 3 upgrade here soon. Videos will be on the channel once I do that! 🤟🏼 also will get a bigger amp for the new setup I got 👍🏼

[@fandechavalones3022]

What if you listen to music that has bass already do you turn it all the way down ?

[@rodolfopimentel5222]

In this case you still need the knob remote from the amp to the dash of the car or just the knob from the epicenter? Basically can you control the amp bass from the epicenter or do I need to set the 2 knob amp and epicenter?

[@lalogvlogs4344]

Amp will need it’s own knob for volume for bass output, the epicenter knob is for adding extra bass. So in this case run 2 knobs one from the amp and other from epicenter. Amp knob being the main volume source. 👍🏼 hope this helps bro.

[@rodolfopimentel5222]

Thank you sir can you show me how you have your line out converted hooked up some people tells me to just connect the wire speakers no ground or power because the wire speakers create remote sensing signal can you confirm on this TIA

Better to add a fuse even if it’s not recommended, say processor is defective or goes bad only fuse that will pop is that one or cause from any other damage. I use a 5 amp fuse for something low voltage like that. Hope that helps boss 👍🏼

Hey bro thanks for the detailed video I really appreciate it. im new to car audio systems and I was wondering if you could please help me out. So my stock subwoofer blew recently on my truck and I wanted to replace it and upgrade the sub and amp. I did get a new head unit installed. I got the pioneer dmh 2660. I ended up going with the skar vd 8 d2 it's 400 watts rms and 600 peak watts. My boy let me borrow one of his amps the JL audio RD1000/1. I also bought the epicenter micro and 4 Gauge wire. Will this work? I don't know about the amp but I think it might be too powerful isn't it? I was also recommended by skar to wire the sub to 1 ohm and doing research on the JL amp it doesn't support 1 ohm only 2ohm's. I just started learning about subs, amps, ohms, watts, bass restorations, etc lol I feel like I've learned so much about it in the last 2 weeks but I want to make sure I'm doing it right and I won't blow my sub or my boys expensive amp lol thanks!

[@eliasibguzman5987]

Did u move da voltage jumpers inside da unit if so wat u set em at i hav mine at 2.5

It depends on the amp you run with it. Google your amp for input sensitivity and try to get as close as you can.

Hey man I got everything hookup but I can’t seem to know why my amp and epicenter don’t turn off when my car turns off. I also have a power switch installed in the front dash to be able to turn off and on the amp but for some reason doesn’t turn it off. Also notice that the epicenter and amp only turn on when I have the remote in and also touching the positive if I only have it In the remote control nothing turns on.. think you could help me out ?
