amp

first post here 2012 kia soul (red) 52,000 miles (yes that's correct) :) excellent condition exterior, ok interior the car starts and runs flawlessly, but: 1) if i plug in the yellow double fuse, with the "MODULE 15a" side fuse in place, the battery will drain to the point of not starting, in...

Is one side a better choice than the other for routing cables? Driver's side seems like a good choice because the battery is on that side, but I'm wondering if one side of the floor channel is a better choice than the other (e.g., more space). Anyone familiar with these vehicles have an...

I'm not a mechanic or electrician but have common sense. Once I realized my audio system's light was the only thing dimming when I tried to start my 2011 Kia Soul. So I unplugged the fuse and now it's starts great, runs better and the lights seems brighter but NO RADIO././ Any suggestions...

I searched the forum but couldn't find what I'm looking for. I'm hoping someones got some info to get me started. I've got a 2018 Soul with the Harman-Kardon sound system. It sounds good but I find it too light on the bass side. I want to upgrade the low end and am looking for recommendations...

Part# AMP-280AM 8 CH AMP I salvaged the 8-channel amp from my smashed 2010 Soul. This fits the 2010 and 2011 model. Soul had no back end damage so this amp was not damaged. Looking for $50 plus shipping. Cheapest on ebay is $175 so get it from me at a discount. It worked right up until the...

I'm going do this in parts as it's kind of long. Here it goes! Kia Soul Friends, PART 1 - Connectors Over the last several weeks I have been working to install an aftermarket amplifier in my car without cutting any factory wires and without removing the original equipment manufacturer (OEM)...

My car is a Soul+ with Infinity and with Navigation. I emailed Metra today to ask them about making a Harness. My aim is to make installing aftermarket amps with high level (or with using LOC's) a lot easier. This would be for keeping the stock head unit, but adding new speakers/amps. Here...

I bought a 2011 Soul about a month ago & the amp that powers the speakers is only sending power to the front speakers. I would like to buy a second amp off Ebay ( no affil ) & take it to my local stereo repair shop & have them go over it & maybe upgrade some parts. And after it's fixed or tested...

I have a 2013 + Soul that I just replaced the head unit and the 2 front door speakers in. I'm not very pleased with the sound thus far. I've messed around with the EQ settings on the stereo but I can't find a good balance. The bass is always too much and drowns everything else out and when I...

Hi all - looking to add an amp and sub box from my previous car to my base headunit in the Soul (I know, I should really replace the headunit, but it'll have to do for now). Anyways, it's been easy enough to get everything apart and figure out the speaker wires to tap into for the amp, but I'm...

Hi everyone! Get my soul I bought last night later today! So excited. It's a 2013 +. I've been reading a lot of the posts on aftermarket sub installs and it looks like a lot of people used the factory sub's hookup for running the line in's to the aftermarket amp. A question I have and...

Alright guys, so I plan to replace every speaker in my car with new speakers soon, but I'm stuck on replacing the factory amp. I don't really just want to bypass it, but more upgrade it, I've found a 70-7305 harness, which would connect to the factory wiring harness. My thoughts are getting an...

Hey guys, I know I know read through the posts in the search to find what you need.. I've been reading posts on sub installs for about two hours and I still can't seem to find one that really tells me what I need... I have bought: Alpine MRV M500 A 4gauge Wiring Kit And a line out converter I...

Hi new to the soul world. I am wondering if anyone has tried too but a secondary amp to just drive the sub? It just seems to me that the sub is lacking more power to it. Trev

I need both, or maybe just amp if it has a remote turn on wire. i know HOW to add amps using the factory head unit, but god its difficult finding the wiring diagrams. heard the amp is 8 channel. buuuut the front doors and rear doors are 4 channels the tweeters, unless wired to front doors...

My daughter's 2010 Kia Soul car no longer puts out any audio. Somebody thought the amp failed. I would like to get a replacement amp for her and not the OEM amp as even used that appears to be $200 or so. What other cheaper amps will work? I had read something about it being difficult to...
