    just a little overboard on this build

    thinking about picking up enough wire to do the big 3 this week before the amp gets here might have some pics up. would i be good i used the 4ga i have laying in my truck for the big 3? i possibly could double up on it on every part if needed cause that save me some money at the moment. and should work on grounds in the back also. then well have

    yeah i know what you are saying. im gunna get the big three finished then maybe pick up a new battery for the front then see were i sit. and after that ill upgrade as needed.

    Congrats. Now step up that electrical. oh thats the next step :), will probably run the 3500 turned down for a little until i get everything i need, then let them see some real power . i would like to find one or two more sprinter batteries like the one i have so i dont have to change that one out. and do you think id be fine with a stock 130 amp alt at this moment with 3 batteries on it and 1/0 everywhere? Hard to tell. All you can do is hook her up and monitor your voltage. You might only need two batteries btw. One for starting and one mounted near your amps. Batteries wired in parallel, same make/model I assume. The reason I say only two batteries is because batteries can be counter productive in this situation. A depleted battery or a battery that needs a charge will be an additional load on the alternator. You might see a voltage drop and assume your amplifier(s) or installation is the culprit but it could be too many batteries loading on your alternator. Check out this video thanks man for the tips and the link. i guess ill see what happens.

    yes i am, and i dont have any idea were to really start with speakers, would i be able to just hook up the amp and then run the speakers i have now? what confuses me the most is the active passive stuff. Powering speakers passive means that the signal going to the speakers from the amplifier has to pass through a crossover first. You can have a full range signal going into to the amplifier and a full range signal coming out of the amplifier and crossovers packaged with the component set will divide the frequencies for the speakers. Commonly when you buy a two way or three way component set they are packaged with crossovers. This is the most common method when adding a component set. It works well and sounds good. Passive component set Powering speakers active means that the signal coming out of the amplifier is already crossed over (signal is divided for the speaker being used). So this means that the speaker you are powering is directly wired to the amplifier without a crossover in between the two. Some people buy amplifiers that have the crossover circuitry in the amplifier. Other people buy separate crossovers or signal processors that divide the signal then the signal goes to the amplifier. When running active you can choose to use speakers from multiple manufactuers and an assortment of other options are available that you do not have with a passive system. Speaker selection and crossover frequency points can be difficult when running active. Using a passive component set can be easy and for most people they are very pleased. For your first setup of this multitude running a passive soundstage would probably be your best bet thank you very much for the info, helped clear all my wrongs thoughts on that stuff, lol. and ill run them passive as the speakers im using have crossovers with them.

    alright sounds like a plan, ill look around here and see about picking up a nice 4 channel and a bunch of wire. and see were i get.

    voltage is pretty steady but do plan on upgrading to bigger amps in the near future. and i dont plan on switching this setup for a while . and for front stage were would you start? i mean at the moment i have upgraded speakers that i got with the truck. should i just add an amp and see if i get any improvements? or should i switch two different speakers all together. i was also thinking maybe looking into get 8" aeros and switching them out with the ports i have now.

    trying to think of what to do next on this build, should i start with addin to my electrical or build beauty panels for the box. work on the front stage a little?? idk and ideas im open for, so please so some input. cause im kindof of just stuck at the moment.
