New amp gets hot, goes into protect
pmureika replied to EddieC's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
What size are the dcons and are you going to sell them? -
Subwoofer wire size?
pmureika replied to pmureika's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
very pointless especially for daily, but it will do if you wanna be cool. As short as subwoofer runs are the bigger wire wont make a difference. I agree with that, It's only for daily use. Thanks a lot ! -

I had it running at 1 ohm load and 12 gauge seemed to work just fine.2000w X 1ohm =2000 square root 2000 = 44.7 volts Than volts x watts= Amperage. -
I think the box is going to make the difference. Along with how much power are you going to give them.

output voltage I am not a expert or a enginer , but I don't get it even using the calculators. Because I don't have all the right answers. -

That gives me watts? -

What is the actual voltage a subwoofer sees from the amp? Is 12 volts ac the max? -

I think that is way over kill and a waste of money. That's my opinion. -

Thanks man. A wreck on the highway this morning added an extra 30 minutes to my drive. An hour and a half without going into protect. Still nice and hot, but I'm pretty sure pushing that 600 watts out of the bridged channel has a lot to do with it. It's never going to see more than 100-150 per channel once it gets devoted to the front stage. I did add about an inch of lift off the floor yesterday. That should help some. Like I said, it made it an hour and a half this morning so hopefully I have a pretty decent balance on it for now. I was actually thinking about that yesterday. Is it safe to use a pc fan it? I can get all those I want from the IT dept at work from old computers.I'm actually thinking at this point maybe I should quit waiting for the Ethos to install a sub amp and go ahead with a temp install to the DCONs while I'm waiting. I'm pretty set on a Soundqubed 2200 for the amp. I know I could run the DCONs at 4 ohms and get 500 to them. OR....since it has an input sensitivity range up to 8 volts would it be safe to wire down to 1 ohm and run with the gains low? I have 4 volt preouts. Is there enough difference between 4 and 8 volts to keep the power down to 7-800 watts? Sure anything to move air across the amp. -

Add a aftermarket cooling fan to blow air across it. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_39030_Xscorpion-TF5.html -
Good 2 way speakers i could pick up at a store?
pmureika replied to tac2137's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
If you put those speakers your buying in the front doors. I would just do away with the rear speakers. You have the subs for bass. -
They have a great selection of subs to chose from,

You can order them online for around 100 dollars. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12224_Pioneer-TS-D1720C.html -
I think you will be happy for the money as long as you get it in a good designed sub box. But for a economy sub I don't think you can beat the ssa dcon for overall performance.
-
Would this be a good choice for a daily driver? I listen to mostly rock music. I know there are better choices but this is in my budget range.
-
Now that this sub has some play time on it. It sounds great for the money. It can really slam.
-
I had a hemi !
-
thank you ! I love all the SSA subs I've tried : Icon, Xcon, but the Zcon is by far the one I prefer. of course ! :-) :-) I have used all of ssa's subs except the evil. And I agree with you on the quality and performance of their subs.
-
Very nice install and I love those zcon subs.

rear battery grounding?

Do you have the big three done?
