    Sundown and Fi Build

    Actually, that Kenwood was in the car before I bought it, and it really sounded like chit. It only has one pair of RCA outputs so I had a four channel and a mono-block hooked up to it with those "Y" splitters, and the Jensen offers superior control over the sound, I don't see why everyone doesn't like Jensen, it was very expensive too, even though I only had to pay $15.

    Sundown and Fi Build

    Well I got paid a few days ago, but I didn't make enough to buy my batteries just yet. I'm going with Stinger, I forget the model numbers(is it just me or is the Stinger website EXTREMELY confusing) but they are comparable to one Kinetik HC1400, and two HC1800's, but they are better! Then shortly I will order the BTL, fully loaded D1, and I'm contemplating having BJ Fisher build me a daily groundpounding box tuned to 30 HZ running off the 3000D at 2 ohm, and me personally build and SPL box tuned to 54 HZ running off the 3000D at .5 Ohms for competitions. I will buy some Kicker Hyperflex 1/0 gauge one of these days and do my Big 3 also...

    6ch Amps

    Wet Sounds makes a 6 channel, its a marine but its a true 1000 watts made by Zapco, so it will run you about $1000
  8. I bypassed me Jensen by grounding it, when you wire it to your parking brake it grounds it so it will play DVD's, so when you ground it to your radio ground the deck thinks the parking brake is on all the time...
  9. Thanks for all the help guys! I think I'm going to keep the stock alt, get lots or 1/0 gauge, and 3 stinger batteries, I don't recall the exact ones, but they are slightly more power than Kinetik HC1800's and one HC1400, and I will get all three for about $450. Depending on how much I get paid today, I might order the BTL or the Stingers, or just get some Hyperflex and do my Big 3 and wait on the BTL and batteries. Thanks for all the input guys! You helped a lot! -Duran
  10. Okay guys, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I will be buying an 18" BTL any day now, I'm going to run it with a Sundown SAZ3000.1, at 2 ohms for daily driving and 1 ohm for comps and such, I will back it up with a Kinetik HC1400, and 2 HC1800's, I will also do my Big 3 in 1/0 gauge, my problem is my alternator, it is a stock 90A, I took it in to a shop today to see if they could rewind it and get more juice out of it and they said they couldn't do anything for it, but I talked to Nathan Pedicord from Excessive Amperage about a 225A that would fit. Why am I unable to get it rewound or built up? Do I even need it? Or will the Kinetiks be fine. Any input would be great, thanks for your time! Duran

    KICKER KS 6.2

    I have the 2008 KS Coax in my car, they sound really, really good. They will get VERY loud, I'm powering them with a Kicker KX350.4, so there is only 90 watts going to them, and they sound very good, they have good midbass too.

    How many sq. feet??

    100,000 square feet would work very well too!

    Sundown Audio T-Shirts

    Seems you get as much interest with clothing as with actually audio products. It's cool to have a shirt that represents what you have in your car. I love being a walking billboard! When I get paid on Friday I wanna buy one!

    12" FI SSD

    L7's can get really loud, but you can't overpower square subs bo more than about 50 watts, with square subs, the corners are farther away from the center than the sides, and they length difference causes a LOT of cone flex, and what in turn causes mechanical failure, L5's and L7's are notorious for mechanical failure. Trust me, I have destroyed 4 different L7's in my day. They are an expensive sub to replace. Stick with round subs, like the Kicker CVX, which is the round version of the L7 (And the 750.1 is meant for a 12" CVX or 12" L7, the 15" will need the ZX 1000.1). Good luck though! Get Fi, its wayyyy better!

    Where to start...

    your schools don't have a weight training program? I was small before high school, I'm 5'11" and 190 lbs going into my senior year. Normally the weight training is just for football players and such, but they allow everyone to join in.

  23. I'm not sure, I'm not the foremost expert on alternators, and I have no idea whatever that car is, never heard of it.
  24. Did you try Powermaster? Iraggi? Ohio Generators?
