How much power would I lose?
shizzzon replied to Dan208's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
what subs are you talking about? -
OK, i just looked. It's $77 per person for 2days straight
-
no, i'm only payin for myself. Last time i went, i went for 2days straight because the park is humungous and took 2 days just to ride what i wanted to. But also, admission isn't that expensive. I believe 2day pass is under $70 per person.

the whole thing is dc power is or went thru a massive transition about getting CNC machines without closing up shop... Yea.. it's not the customers fault for not stalking dc power on their progress but hopefully by now or at least soon will things get more situated and flow evenly for everybody.

I'm not, haha Care to fill me in? yea u'd like that wouldnt you

Looks like we have a winner

don't be jealous when we were beatin it down in the parkin lot

Hove?!?!?! I haven't heard from him since we were playin michael jackson in the parkin lot.
-
It's the least i could do.. If i get it all done by wednesday evening, i'll just charge ya $2,300, how bout that? Saves us both time and gets me back home early.

ok, we just figured out what it was.. I just got off the phone with the OP... he has 2 zcons 18s.. Apparently, when the subs were receiving power, the wire came loose at the amp(speaker wire) and grounded on the case... Well, the amp was mounted to a conductive material and that material is ran to the speaker box which is built out of steel... huh.... It caused a massive arc inside the van and smoke was everywhere... A couple of XS batts exploded in the process but the Zcons are still functioning or were until the electrical system got damaged... It was still playing "I Put On..." until the batts exploded... I'm goin up there tomorrow night to rebuild his XS batts for him and take his stetsom amp apart and make sure nothing is damaged... You will be fine TeamRamrod..
-
wow.. u think u blew ur speakers and the help the OP gets is a bunch of secret pms? What the hell is goin on here.... Don't tell us how u fixed it ... lol

So, for those that seen the ending of the movie... Wow.. Just got done reading that there will be 2 more of these movies to be released before the story is over... The next one is going to be released in 2013.

ah yes... 16v would save money to get to that 240v... Now the funnys I need to contact DC power and see if they can get me a 240v alternator for my car... Then i need to contact XS Power and see if i can get a stepdown from 240v to 14v.
-
whoa, i misunderstood.. i thought u was only running 1 sub? I would recommend the AQ1200 for 1 sa-12 in about ~1.5-1.8cuft. If u are set on 2 subs, then u would want dual 4s.
-
uh.. maybe, but probably no on the electrical upgrade That amp is perfect for that sub. Just make sure you get dual 2 and be good to go. equipment draw can\will vary from one car to another based on many things. I try and stress this as there is no 100% of knowing exactly what one needs for their electrical system upgrade-wise but this is a basic upgrade and if anything crazy were going to happen, the most you would ever need is a small battery in the rear, but i doubt it will come to that.
-
Well, i;ve have experience with AQ sd2.5, SA-12, and DC lvl3. In my opinion, i'd say go with the SA-12. The AQs are nice and all but the SA-12 and DC lvl3 sound better, more soothing to the ear. It would be a toss=up either sundown or dc but somethin bout the sa-12 that just sounds so good.

noob with a noob question
shizzzon replied to superman814's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
The drivers will all SEE the same voltage, the current is what gets divided... When the current gets divided.. the POWER(wattage) gets divided. So if we had 100v 100a = 10,000w on 10 drivers Take dmm and ammeter to each sub- Each sub will measure 100v, 10a = 1,000w per driver -

FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE... If that were true.. then what you are implying is i can go buy a 1,000w amp for ~$150.. then go purchase 16 16 ohm single coiled drivers and get that amp to put out 16,000w. That's means it's over 1,000% efficient! I don't think so. Power is distributed from the amp to ALL coils. As long as the coils in the configuration are all wired the same, they will all receive evenly distributed power (minus inefficiencies in wire length and gauge from one sub to another) Now, if u had a 2 ohm and a 4 ohm coil, then the user is just plain retarded and the 2ohm would receive MORE, but never make the amp put out more power than what it can possibly do. Now, to the original poster- What vehicle is this going in? What coil config did you order your Q's in? Even though i am selling few 3500ds, i'm gonna see if u can get away with what u got without spending any extra money as that's always the goal. -
BAN??????? Why? Don't take things so literal...

I know I have a car audio addiction when......
shizzzon replied to Aaron Clinton's topic in General Audio
when you know more specs about the limits of the vehicle than the car company has tested. when no matter what car you buy, they always have the following problems that need to be fixed- Windows need tinting Head unit needs replacing Sound deadener needs to be added, stock deadener isn't working. Needs more wiring under the hood Alternator needs replacing Needs more batteries to operate properly Suspension isn't strong enough Too many seats in vehicle Ah.. When will these car companies know how to build a vehicle right... -
oh damn... haha, that's 20 batteries in series i would assume, yes? 20 rest at 13v = 260v.. Interesting enough... maximum non clipped current draw should be less than 200A, yes? less than 200A is awesome.. but.. i have a question. What exactly is the reasoning in using a power supply that needs 24v or 240v on some of the amps? The battery requirement would still be the same... If i had an amp that put out 20,000w @12v, let's say i used 20 G31 batteries. Now, if i had another one put out 20,000w @24v, i would STILL need 20 batteries, just 10 pairs in series. Same output power, just half the current output.. Is the purpose to save the customer money on the amp cost somehow? Does it make the amp more efficient somehow running that high voltage? I've been wonderin this for quite some time.

New Crescendo amps FTMFW!!!!!!!
shizzzon replied to edouble101's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
just checked some specs with my tracking info.... Fedex says 4 5500ds weigh 152lbs! That's almost 40lbs per box.... Interesting to see how much these weigh out of the box. I know my AQ3500ds weigh in at 16lbs.
