panky wont need D-block if he has connected both amplifiers directly to battery.But shorely he could have saved some bucks by buying only one better amp kit,like JBL/audison kit for the price of two.

Souljah,its healthy discussion g'on here about D-block.Why it should invite trouble or mods.

As far as I know, the JBL amp wiring kit is for 3000! How does it make anything cheaper?

The Visonik kits available in Bombay are all fakes, I don't know about his one.

B&T u got me wrong here.I know the prices of JBL/Audison amp kits.

I said instead of buying two,he could have gone for single kit based on my thinking that these two kits must have costed him much more.

And if these kits r low prices and some chinese make or fake he shorely needs to replace these with better one.

If his setup is playing fine I dont think he will change the power wiring as u are recommending a db in between the amps and battery he might do it...

hanji Pankaj bhai..so now r u going to put a DB as recommended...

thanx everyone!

arre yaar, i bought only one audiopipe kit ($50) that i installed with MonoBloc, rest installation wala told me that he'll be using visonik cable (8 ga) for Pio. I think both are direct from battery. So, no question of using a DB.

I'm happy with my ICE now....JBL has redefined my listening pleasures.

Ok, pardon me for sounding like a complete ICE nerd but I have limited space in the boot, so can i fit a sub-woofer using minimum space? I was thinking of going for JBL amp & sub. what is a bass tube? do you need a box to fit it or can it be fitted directly onto the tray?

Hi there welcome to the world of ICE ......

a bass tube looks like this...

a enclousre would look like this...

and a sub would look like this...

now you can install the sub on the tray ....or keep the bass tube in the boot no need for tray installation....

In restricted spaces (not to be confused with small spaces), one can also use a shallow subwoofer.

OT...

LBM, where do you source your images from?

I mean this quality, and what do you use to size them so accurately close to one another? Is it that Imageshack re-sizing option? If so, what size is most appropriate for posting images on forums like ours?

just a note: the 504 is a 4 channel amp. you can only bridge 2 ch. at a time. so it can power 2 subs, 1 sub and 2 fullrange speakers, or 4 fullrange speakers.

Or one whole dual/ quad voice coil sub.
