Connecting a home theater amp to a dj amp for more power?
i have a DJ amp and im hoping there is a way i can connect it to my receiver because the output on my receiver is 105w per channel @ 8 ohms. the dj amp is a "PYLE PRO PPA450" Specs: PYLE PRO PPA450 4500 Watt 2 Channel Rack Mount Power Amplifier Features: Model: PylePRO PPA450 4500W 2 Channel Bridgeable Pro Audio Power Amplifier 4500 Watts Total Output Power Continuous Output Power: Stereo Mode: 20Hz to 20kHz, 8 Ohms 170W x 2 1kHz, 4 Ohms 220W x 2 Maximum Power, 8 Ohms 230W x 2 Maximum Power, 4 Ohms 260W x 2 Peak Power, 8 Ohms 1600W x 2 Bridged Mode: 20Hz to 20kHz, 8 Ohms 440W x 1 1kHz, 8 Ohms 440W x 1 Peak Power 4500W x 1 Dual Output Level Controls and Illumination Protection Indicator Input Level Indicator Blue LED Signal Activity Indicator Internal Cooling Fan Heavy Duty Aluminum Heat Sink Stereo/Bridged Mode Switch Ground Lift Switch Dual RCA and XLR Cable - 1/4" Jack Inputs for Balanced or Unbalanced Mode Banana Plug Style Binding Post Outputs AC Accessory Inlet 110/220 Volt Switchable Adjustable Input Gain Controls Specifications: Signal/Noise ratio: 100dB Distortion: <0.1% Frequency response: 10Hz-50 kHz less than +/- 3dB Input Impedance Balance: 20K Ohms Input Impedance Non-Balance: 10K Ohms Dimensions (H x W x D): 3.47" x 19" x 10.68" i have a receiver, its specs are: Manufacturer: Sherwood Part Number:RX-4105 General Product Type Receiver Width 17.3 in Depth 14 in Height 4.9 in Audio System Sound Output Mode Stereo Output Power / Total 200 Watt Amplifier Output Details 100 Watt - 8 Ohm - THD 0.08 % - 2 channel(s) ( Main ) Timer Sleep Bass Control Yes Treble Control Yes Built-in Display Fluorescent Additional Features A/B/A+B speaker switch Digital Storage Media None Connectors Headphone Jack Yes Radio Type Radio tuner - AM/FM - Digital Tuning Display Fluorescent display Preset Station Qty 30 Antenna Form Factor Loop AM / wire FM Auto Preset Memory Yes Turntable Type None Cassette System Type None DVD Type None CD System Type None Digital Player (Recorder) Type None MD System MD system type None Headphones Headphones Type None Microphone Type None Remote Control Remote Control Universal remote control - Infrared Remote Control (2nd) Type None Connections Connector Type 1 x Headphones - Front, 4 x Audio line-in ( RCA phono x 2 ) - Rear, 2 x Audio line-out ( RCA phono x 2 ) - Rear, 4 x Speakers output ( Click-fit x 2 ) - Rear Miscellaneous AV Furniture None Power Power Device Power supply - Internal Manufacturer Warranty i wondered if there's a way to attach the two or should i use my home theater receiver ac connect the amp to that??

The only way to connect to your receiver is through the headphone jack. The headphone jack output level will vary with the volume control. All you need is a standard 1/4 inch TRS to RCA cable: http://www.amazon.com/HOSA-STEREO-PHONE-3-3ft-RETURN/dp/B000068O1J/ref=sr_1_5?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1290009597&sr=1-5 Just keep in mind that that amp is not that much more powerful than your receiver, so you may be disappointed. The amp puts out 170 watts into 8 ohms and the receiver puts out 100 watts. That difference will be noticeable but not dramatic.

Car audio amplifier and sub impedance question.?
Will a Jensen PowerPlus 1302 push 2 12" kicker CVR 2ohm subwoofers wired in a series/parallel setup equaling a total 2 ohm impendance? Without burning out. I'm a bit confused looking at the specs of the amp. The specs are as follows: * 1300 watt 2 channel high powered amp * Designed to meet or exceed the CEA-2006 test standards * 320 x 2 Watts RMS, 2-ohm * 650 x 1 Watts RMS, 4-ohm Bridged * Deep-bass reproduction * Low harmonic distortion * Low profile aluminum extruded heat sink * Diagnostic LED's * Compact design allows great flexibility in mounting * Built-in low-pass and high-pass crossover filters for bi-amplifying the system * Blue illuminated VU level meter and logos * Encapsulated power and speaker connectors * Green operation and red protection LEDs * Protection circuit that safeguards against short circuits, DC-offset and thermal overload * Variable bass EQ 0-12 dB at 45 Hz * Dimensions: Width (inches): 15.5 x Height (inches): 2.3 x Depth (inches): 11.6 x Weight (lbs): 11.4 * Pass Through outputs * Power Source: 12V * Frequency Response Low (in Hz): 5 * Frequency Response High (in Hz): 60000 * VU output level Meters * Fuse/Type: Thermal Overload * Stereo Outputs + Input * Power Terminal: Encapsulated * Amplifier Class: AB * 650 watts RMS Output * Response Low (Hz): 5 * Response High Hz: 60000 * Signal to Noise: 100 * Low profile Aluminum extruded heat sink * Pass-Thru RCA's * Variable Bass EQ 0 - 12dB @ 45Hz * 12dB / octave Low Pass and High Pass filters * Variable Input Level 400mV - 5V * Encapsulated power and speaker connectors * Short circuit, DC-offset and Thermal Overload protection circuitry * Blue illuminated VU level meter(s) * Diagnostic LED's - Green: Power, Red: Standby / Fault * Low Pass filter 50 - 250Hz * High Pass filter 40 - 500Hz * High Pass / Low Pass / Full Range selector switch * Stereo/Mono Mode switch * Remote Input Level Control w/ 5 meter interface cable * Load Impedance: 2-4ohm * Signal to Noise @ 1 kHz: >100dB (rated power) * Channel Separation @ 1 kHz: >60dB * Frequency Response: 5-60 kHz, -3dB * Input Impedance: 20 kHz, nominal * THD+N @ 5 watts: 0.02%, 1 kHz, 14.4VDC * Fuse rating: 60A Part of the manual says : Amp will not drive a 1 ohm mono load, 2 ohm minimum in mono configuration Does that mean the amplifier is stable at 2ohms when both channels are bridged? Edit: Also, if bridging isn't necessary, does that mean that I can just wire both subs in parallel to produce a 1ohm load each then hook them each to their own channel? And the RMS 320w x 2 @ 2 ohms means to ohms total, not 2 ohms per channel, 4 ohms total?

yes it is stable @ 2 ohms x 1 channel. However note the amp is rated at 14.4 volts DC . The over all power output will drop dramatically at lower voltages . Also note most car stock alternators can not handle a 60 load added draw. It will shorten the life of the alternator and possible cause spikes in the system .They can affect other parts of the cars electrical system like the ecm module and on board computers. They need a constant 12.4 to 14.4 volt input to operate properly. You really need to upgrade the alternator to get the rated output of this amp. You need at least a alternator that has a 150 amp output to handle the load the amp with put on it . also i would upgrade the battery to a better load battery and add a cap as well . people often over look at what voltage a amp is rated at. That is a very important note . As with a added load a stock alternator will never get to 14.4 volts. Most alternators put out only 12.8 volts at idle to 14.4 80 to 90 Amps peak @around 4000 rpm A amp rated @14.4 will only putout about half or less of the rated output at 12.8 volts. rule one you have to feed the amp to get the output .. the less you feed it the less the out put will be at any ohm load. I try to only buy amps rated at around 13 volts . As it is easier toy get a electrical system to produce the power needed to make the rated output . Knowledge is from 15 years of sound system design and installation.

Onkyo stereo amp. input selector dial wants to move on it's own; WHY?
I have a Onkyo A-807 integrated stereo amplifier. The input selector switch (dial) wants to do it's own switching. this happens any time the power is on; or what the dial is switched to. example: phono; tuner; CD or tape. Anybody knows what gives with this problem? This amp. also can be used with a remote control.

I have an Onkyo A-809 with the same problem. I've tried the lubrication method but the problem returned. It is very unpredictable. Onkyo will not support these old units; nor do they carry any parts. It may be a glitch in the microprocessor and thus not fixable. I will take it apart to view the printed circuit board that includes the switch and see if it has any obvious solder problem. I may bring it to my local tech for a diagnosis if he is not too expensive. These units bring about $100 to $200 on ebay but this problem is common. Too bad because they are nice amps. I'll let you know if I find a fix.
