Fallen is badass my 2 drop in boxes were from him side firing, heres a vid car wash was swaying http://www.youtube.com/user/06chysler300c?feature=mhum#p/a/u/2/-dzunkciJi8

Same thing with my xcon but my sub has a-lot of mechanical noise.
-
from looking at your vehicle 12's are your best option 15's wont go unless you build a wall, plus with 12's you can optimize the enclosure, and im bettin you want to play the lows.

what subs?

My 270 xp alt did 200 @ idle in a small case GM
-
what amp are you lookin to run
-
And of course this all boils down to what amp u plan on running.
-
I have personally owned one and, DC power is solid, 12.5 - 13.3v SAZ-4500d wired @ 1ohm, music small yellow top and hc2400 at 3/4 vol idle, 13.8 dropping to 13.1 with an occasional 12.7 with some throttle full tilt. And as with all alts heat plays a factor and results varied. My ECM liked to play it cold at 15.2v, hot 14.1 - 14.6 idle no volume for reference. As far as customer service Rob got me the first time direct fit and answered the phone an understandable 80% of the time.

not sure of price but sounds in same range as the dc power alt i would go dc power on this one as they are overbuilt beasts and do some major output at idle.
-
how much is the alt going to run you.

Alternator help!!
Optimus_Prime replied to tommyjiggallow's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
you want to run the stock alt and add a second h/o alt -
Not sure if all DC alts have same nut but iirc its 8mm. And if so might wanna pinn as i did lose the nut while running 2 runs 1/0 and had extremely tight space to work with.
-
That alt should support a 3krms setup as long as you use 2 batts IE: yellow top and kinetik 2400 and upgrade wiring to 1/0 minimum, and some common sense goes a long way.

some electrical questions
Optimus_Prime replied to M.C.BOB's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Here are 2 of my fav cables, on left is 2/0 welding flex-a-prene and other is kicker 1/0 both are nice and flexable, i opted to do 2 runs of the kicker since i could only find it in 50' spool, and supporting 5kw, but one run should be fine for your goal. the major benefit will come with 250+ amp alt. -

review of DC Powers customer service
Optimus_Prime replied to j-roadtatts's topic in DC Power Engineering
Dc Power FTW, Just hope that don't happen in an 00-05 Caddi deville, cost me 400.00 and some change to have it installed on top the 700.00 for the alt, and trust me this is not a DIY job on this vehicle. DC power is solid, 12.5 - 13.3v SAZ-4500d wired @ 1ohm, music small yellow top and hc2400 at 3/4 vol idle, 13.8 dropping to 13.1 with an occasional 12.7 with some throttle full tilt.

What vehicle. -
Props go out to SSA. The Xcon is the most accurate woofer I have ever
Optimus_Prime replied to jrod1050's topic in Sound Solutions Audio (SSA®)
Like what im hearing, gonna run 2 12cons on 3kw+ and from what i hear they step up to the mic and deliver. Not to mention the WTF u got in there's. -
I think youd be better off with the 2 icons for a couple of reasons: thermal capability, less wiring, more manageable, and enclosure optimization. Just my .02 cents. either way you will be happy but with the 2 icons = more piece of mind, and as mentioned above greater chance of selling them.

CRAZY SHEIT, Sorry to hear about the arm man wish you a speedy recovery them arms are crucial for grabbin the wheel and splittin them gears. Hope i never go through or see some shit like that. Thought id share a pic of not a wrecked BIG RIG 60m concrete pumper since were on the big rig subject.
