  1. Hey guys quick question: I understand this: Voltage of the output = sqrt(RMS Power X impedance of the speaker) Example Say the amp provides 100WRMS into a 4 ohm speaker: Voltage = sqrt(100W X 4 ohms) Voltage = sqrt(400W*ohms) Voltage = 20V So I have a 1500W amp and two dual 1 SSD12s. Would it be? Voltage = sqrt(1500W x 1 ohm) Voltage = sqrt(1500W*ohms) Voltage = 38.7V Should I use 30HZ, 50HZ, or 100HZ tone?
  2. Cool thanks. Based on having two subs that are 800rms each and an amp that provides 1500 will the subs clip if the gain is all the way open?
  3. Is the amp remote a gain remote on the Sundowns? I'm running Fi SSD12s (2) 800 RMS off of the 1500D V.2. If I turn the gain all the way up will they clip?

    Getting ready to install all of my stuff. Pretty much have all that I need to get this almost complete. Just waiting on an In-Line Fuse for between the battery and amp. Also waiting on my H/U, a Pioneer AVH-P4200DVD, wiring harness, and dash kit. All of this is going in here: Starting off with these bad boys 2 Fi Audio SSD12s (thanks FI) in an Argent Audio Enclosure (thanks Andrew): Mounted: Powered by this (thanks SA): Started off by mounting a piece of wood to serve as my amp rack in the trunk: Then I mounted the amp: Going to paint the amp rack black when it stops raining out here in LA. This is as far as I got yesterday. More to come in the next week.

    Thanks man. It was a while in the making. I'm pretty much done just need to tweak some things. Got to change the positioning of the head unit so it fits better. Also need to take out the amp rack and sand it and paint it black so it's not just plain wood in there.

    Just hooked up the box: Tossed in the trunk: This thing is huge.

    Got some nice terminals. Another picture of the way the amp is mounted: I ran the wires: I installed an in-line fuse (175 amp) and mounted on the outside of my fusebox: So I have everything mocked up and ready to go. Just have to connect everything and toss my subs/enclosure in the trunk and I'm ready to go. After all that I decided to install my head/unit. I had to get rid of the supporting humps for the stock radio. It was a bitch to do so. But got it done. The finished product:

    So I ran into some problems. I got the head/unit in: but there is a problem, it doesn't slide all the way to the back: There is plastic that blocks it from sliding back. Should I cut out the plastic???

    Wiring Amp

    Just a general question about wiring the amp. For the terminals for the ground and positive how did you guys affix the wire into the terminal. Did you guys solder the tip of the wire and then screw it down or did you just insert the bare wire and then screw it down? Thanks guys.

    Ok so guys, got a question bout wiring my h/u to the wiring harness that connects to the car. The H/u has a ground wire that has a terminal on it to screw it to a spot on the chassis. The wiring harness says to connect it's ground wire to the ground wire of the h/u. Do I remove the terminal and connect the two of them?

    I've got a pic up top of the box. Andrew at Argent Audio hooked it up. It's a ported box tuned @ 33 hz. 32" width 15" height 22" depth.

    Wiring Amp

    Thanks guys I'll most likely just do that. But I heard some people will solder/tin the wire to keep the wire from fraying and making sure there is a constant connection. Once cooled then they insert it into the terminal and clamp down with the screw, I think it makes it a tighter fit. (not too sure)

    Yes they are. Behind the seat where the rear 6x9's are, there is metal that runs the width of the car. There were holes in it on top already so I ran some nuts, bolts, and washers through those holes and the wood. The bolts secure it on the top. The bottom lays on the floor of the trunk. I'm going to affix some velcro on the wood and the bottom of the floor to add support.

    Hurricane Nuts

    Which one do you guys recommend for utilizing in an enclosure to fasten the subs? Also a bolt to match with them??? Going in .75" MDF http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=081-1084 http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=081-1082

    would an inch work fine? since I have the .75" mdf and then the sub?
