I did have to laugh at the bit on cables to a house. Of course a house does not need as big cable to run. Hell my whole house runs off an 80A fuse - the same size as JUST my music system in the car.
There goes Martha Stewart with her household tips...
LOL
idiot... the OP fixed his problem by changing to a bigger ground... you are a moron, and the lessons you tried to teach us little "boys" was wrong...
you are WRONG
LOL
Close thread
:-)
Remember to refer to the thread about me that makes you laugh :-) the one in the few posts above :-) will keep you from pissing your pants in anger :-)
Nobody cares what your house runs the point is still valid. There is absolutely no reason to have bigger ground cables than the power cable that is supplying the unit period.
lol no one was even talking about that. Look I would love to write 100 pages of crap with the trademark CAPITALS just to be proven wrong, however I don't see writing invaild posts on the internet as a good use of my time.... oops I just did
The world is lucky you have your own business in car audio, or do you??
*Yawn*, sorry I forgot the capitals *YAWN*. Where did you get magical power from? I think your tripping.
I'm just glad that he didn't listen to you and waste his money because that is what he would have done. You are like a French chef who thinks he can master Chiness because it all FOOD ( I like capitals ).

upgraded cables fixed it end of story. reasons unclear like many things in life and science. either way even tho it can't be explained, and there are many things that can't be, the dimming has stopped.
I'm sure to have one of those awesome white packets in the pantry somewhere i'm going to go hit me up some.
Is this the end of my car modding days? Buying a house says so...
upgrading earthing wires shouldnt in theory stop your dimming issue
even though it appears to be the case this time....but yeh..
as mentioned previously, the current produced by all car electronics, upgraded or stock shouldnt really require a large earthing wire as the earthing current they will produce should be quite small...
anyway, im just speaking from bare bones physics, not really experience
when my mate and I did his sound system, which was pretty basic, we didnt play with any earthing kits, just used the earthing wire that came with the amp, made sure that was earthed properly in the best possible place and evrything worked fine with little or no dimming under load
but yeh......im just talking from limited experience and just using logic, there could be other reasons for the dimming....

"I do apologise for what must seem like an arbitrary imposition"
imo its a case of equalling what's going out to what's coming in.
i run a 0ga power wire and a 0ga earth to the chassis. however the earth wire connecting the battery to the chassis is most definitely not 0ga. so its simple logic you equal that to be 0ga as well. so this is done by simply having an extra earth to the battery to equal the total size of the cable going out or you can go for overkill and have multiple earth points in the engine bay connecting back to the battery.
Upgrading your power cables and ground to your headunit can help (if your talking about headunit dimming at loud volumes). Think about your headunit, how much power it producers compared to your stock deck.........

This is claymores downfall. speaking from physics not experience. if it didnt work, people wouldnt do it, but somehow it defys belief, and fixes the problem.

ill try the earthing upgrade trick first too if i have this problem in the future
cheap to try and if it fixes it why not.....
exactly. do it an youll be surprised
