ok i bought some vibe 6x9s and a black box II
so i wired it up and got the power and all i get is dirty bass from the music im playing... tried the gain and stuff but no joy..sounds like the tweeters are not working...the speakers do work when they arnt running off the amp???
any ideas??
cheers
chris
 
ok , if i remember correctly the vibe black box II is a monoblock amp - which means it is made to run subs and is low pass

6X9's push out stereo on a high pass,

basically you need another amp the black box II wont run them hence the dirty bass

hope this helps

hey.

k11 kid it shows in the instructions that it can be used to run either 6x9s..sub or briged to both...

so still cant work out y it wont work..you can hear that the woofer side of the speaker but not tweeter..
cheers

Check the fuses next to the battery as thats the ones that have blown, and yes i can confirm that the Black Box 2 won't run 6x9's.

Titch :kungfu:
 
bugger...you'd think thathelfrauds would have said when thy saw me buy the 6x9s and the black box...o well see if they will take it back!!!

cheers guys!
 
Unfortunately many Halfrauds staff members know naff all about car audio.

For your 6x9's, any 2 channel amp should do, 50wrms and above.

However I recommend that you instead amp your front speakers, and run the rears off the the headunit.

You are sitting up front after all ;)
 
cheers guys for your help...
one thing..
how come in the instructions for the amp it shows that it can run two speakers or a sub or two speakers and a sub???
any idea?
cheers

umm just to let you know that the black box II does run 6x9s and a bloody good job it does
 
maybe..i bought it new for £120 and i think it says like 3i on it?
sounds pretty good and means i dont have my boot taken up b a sub...
