It could have been wired differently but been the same impedance that your wiring diagram would do, or completely different. I don't see how it would have affected it now, it honestly sounds like you cooked the coils with too much power.

I'll just add that I have used a ktp in the past, it was an improvement over stock headunit power, but definitely not on par with a standalone amplifier.

Not really. I think there's other factors that come into play, besides owning an ssa product

I love your van. I honestly wish I could hear it

Some pics? What about some videos!

Anyone need a 500gb hdd for the cheap? http://thegadgetsite.com/2011/04/fake-samsung-hdd-appears-chinese-scammers-seem-to-have-found-the-trick-to-build-an-infinite-hard-drive/

Every situation is different, but most of the time, if installed correctly, more cone area = more output. Not always, but the majority of the time... If I were in your shoes, I'd save some bucks and buy another bl to match yours and run amp at 2ohms, or find someone who wants to trade d1 for d2, trade, and get another d1 and wire to 1ohm.

Don't listen to the above comments, you do not need a bigger amplifier. If you find yourself wanting more output, then you could certainly upgrade to a bigger amp, but just because they are rated for 1000watts does not mean you need a 1000watt amp. Can't see the exact enclosure on the site unless you tell us what vehicle and year it is.

And vice versa for me, well I didn't use a dmm, but gain needed to be set around 3/4 on my saz1500d.

Bottoming out would tear spiders, tinsel leads, etc.

Poorly set ssf would allow bottoming out, don't see how that would cook the coil.

The ktp will only work with certain alpine headunits, it will not work with pioneer, kenwood, etc

x2 on belt slip, even if it didn't squeal. When I installed my dc alt I had a little slip, but wasn't worrying about it until I got all the electrical wired up for the alt. Once I was done wiring up the harness, I'd start it up, and voltage was awful, checked all my connections and made sure harness was getting power, etc. Finally I tightened up the tensioner and fixed the slipping, and boom 15v+ And I'll add, running a saz1500d at full tilt with no additional batteries, voltage would be steady 14.5v+, but with the occasional fast dips to 13 then back up, that is normal, so don't freak out if your lcd meter goes to 13s for a split second and then back up to 14s

You beat me to it while I was sleeping Sure thing Robbie, thank you I wasn't watching engine RPM. But I will take note. I was planning on running a 1/0 ground from the alternator directly to the battery but I only have one 1/0 lug laying around. More 1/0 lugs are on order. Do you think this will help any or would I be wasting money? I am typing you an email now Kyle. Where would you connect this wire to? Between alt case and steel bolt when mounted to engine? I would think the ground would be sufficient, considering the case itself is the ground, when it's bolted in, that's a pretty big piece of conductive metal it's bolted to.

Doors turned out awesome ^Posted at same time as above post. Sorry to hear about your shit being broken into. Looks like they did a number near the lock. Hopefully insurance will take care of you.

DC alt is pretty damn impressive

Sweet! Awesome news. Looking forward to seeing your new voltage

Winrar. ^This. Install winrar. Right click on decaf file. click on "Extract Files" then click ok. There should now be a folder named after the decaf file, containing everything extracted. Hope that helps.

Loud for sure. Meter at the headrest, sealed up, just for kicks

Let me ask you this. Is your car's electrical stock? stock starting battery? stock alternator? Depending on the amp you choose, your going to need additional batteries and or an upgraded alternator, which is costly. I know theres a used saz1500d in the F/S section on here, I believe for 250shipped. This and say a xs power 3100 battery would do the trick. So basically give us a budget for your amp, and any additional electrical upgrades. Can't skimp on the electrical, so may be better off going with less power and a bl for your budget. Or a btl now and upgrade amps and electrical down the road.

It's plain bad notation.

No big deal or anything, Lol...
