A sensitivity of 90 db, is 90 db at 1 meter with 1 watt, so 1 meter basically listening position in a car, going 10 x to 10 watts gives you a 100 db, going 10 x again a 100 watts equals 110 db, can't really go up another 10x's and doubling to 180 watts only gives you a just noticeable change in...

Adding speakers does a similar thing, generally you only do that with subs multiple fronts add phasing issues. Basically getting 10 db louder can also be done by 10 times the speakers and every 3 db by doubling the speakers adding a port also gives 3 db. So going from one seal sub to 4 subs in a...

The speakers sensitivity is important spec especially for fronts that generally can't handle crazy power which is a problem since loudness (db) and an amps wattaged ain't linear. Loudness is rated in db, 3 db is considered a barely noticeable change in volume 6 db is a very noticeable change...

A separate amp is almost alway gonna be better and louder than the head unit built in amp, It’s relatively way easier to get volume out of subs than the front end, especially if powering the front from the deck.

Might take some experimenting then, play songs you know the bass really well and play with it until it sounds right. If some of the notes go missing or quieter then there might be a gap in the frequency and the crossover set too low.

So you should set the sub to the same crossover frequency then.

Kool so yeah just set the filter where it sounds best to you then probably around 80-100 hz. There's probably no filter to the fronts so it is what it is for them.

That's a low pass filter Do you only have one amp powering both sub mids and high ? If so you might have to wire in passive filters between amp and speakers.

Crossover is designed to only send select frequency to each speaker, the sub should be using a low pass filter set somewhere between 80-120 hz and if the others are full range speakers (woofer and tweeter in one speaker) then you can use a high pass filter on them set somewhere from 80-120 hz or...

Phase is if the speakers are in sync with one another, say you got two subs and you wire the positive from the amp to the positive to each speaker same with negatives then both speakers will move in and out together at the same time so in phase but if you wire one sub backwards then it will be a...

I'm assuming your not looking for overbearing bass, It's been a few years since I setup a stereo, I'd watch some YouTube videos 1st, from what I remember off the top of my head, turn down all the amps gains and turn the sub volume all the way down, turn deck up until it starts to distort then...

you can get fuse blocks like these from places like Amazon

Never bought from these guys but looks like they might have what your after. Mopar Restoration and Performance A-BODY ELECTRICAL, Wiring Harnesses

If you go Ford type starter relay then only a short wire from the battery to the relay has power all the time the rest of the cable only when starting.

I don't know exactly what you need but it's got to be more than the maximum amps you will draw and small enough to protect the cable you put it on. Here's the 1st chart I found Power wire Max fuse size 00 AWG 400A 0 AWG 325A 2 AWG 200A 4 AWG 125A 8 AWG 50A 10 AWG 35A 12 AWG 20A...

Is it just a mess under the hood ? The wiring pretty basic on these cars no reason you can't fix it. That's what I'm gonna do to mine. Here's a couple of places I just googled they seem to have the parts you may need. Mopar Restoration and Performance A-BODY ELECTRICAL, Wiring Harnesses...

Excess is better than not enough. But if you only got a 100-150 amps worth of electronics no need spending extra money on 200-300+ amp alternator.

You can figure the amp draw from everything and add it up, to figure the size of the alternator, battery is to start your car alternator powers the electronics. Stereo alone can eat a lot of juice, 1000 Watts rms / 12 = 83.33 amps obviously that's cranked and at music peaks. To figure out the...

Test light and a wire diagram, start at fuse then headlight pigtail and work your way to the switch.

A 1000w is about 75 amps so about (75+60) 135 amp alternator. Look for ones with good output at idle.

Here's some images I found might help, someone better than me would need to talk you through it. I'm good at getting places bad at giving directions :) Modified probably similar to yours Stock ones armature bypass

This guy got a bunch of video's on basic car circuits

I got to do similar to mine, I'm gonna start from scratch and design my own under the hood wiring, I don't know how good you are with wiring, I'm ok, with a little thought and research I can get it done, there's only a few circuits to deal with, you probably want some version of modified stock...

Are you actually having a problem with his wiring or just don't like the job he did or want to make it stock etc.. ?

On the top side is a power bar can tap in there run you own fuse and switch, Or with a relay/fuse and run a wire from the light switch to turn on relay.

Probably to options you don't have.

This guy breaks down the circuits, you could keep parts of it, but your gonna end up redesigning it. https://www.youtube.com/@RattyMuscleCar/videos

I looked into fob's how I came across self latching relay, like the door lock battery idea, get a four door solenoid set use one of the extras on a cutoff switch plus probably rig a shifter lock with the other one.
