hey guys i am off to work if anyone has any idea's of what this is either an issue or i shouldn't worry about it just post that and or if you have anything else i can try please let me know!

30 lol that is hot!

i have always been a fan of strapping any 2 sundown amps!!! it works well for me! i strapped 2 sae1000, saz2000 and i will be strapping my saz2500 when they arrive lol! so i vote for strapping!!!

Glad you like it Chris it is truely a killer amp

You do realize that the pre order is over right? Look a few posts up at Jacobs post

Thank you and good luck with yours I think you got an excellent start let us know how it works out for you and how your system holds the voltage

This is the 600de? www.mobilesoundworks.com/PhotoGallery.asp?ProductCode=ax%2D600de

O you should be all set to go I will be running my 5k off of 200ah and 220alt keep in mind I will need more ah as that setup was supporting my previous 4k setup with no issue at all

So did those links help you at all to better understand how much ah you will need? If so how much do you need another way to calc ah is take the sum of the required fusing and divide by 2 so if I have Single amp that has a 200 amp fusing my required ah is 100 for example but if you play with car on then that number will decrease so that way isn't the best but it gives you a ball park figure of what you are shooting for

Lol spelling fail for me lol sorry man but yes i do not include my starting battery in my calc. Why just because I assume the starting battery is all used and setup for the cars daily day to day usage and at least in my case that battery is really small and you wouldn't want to run anything off of it but instead just get a bank that can support your car audio needs

Thanks Chris!!! right back at ya! icy_chris - SSA Car Audio Forum

I sold my SAZ 2000 to icy_chris a few weeks back! he is very fast at payments and he helps out to make this a smooth transaction! He is an asset to the market place and he knows what he wants and is a straight forward guy! I was glad to sell to him and I am looking forward to his build(s)!! Kenneth

if it is your starting battery i next include it in my calcs lol! i just say what i need 100ah min well i will get battery(ies) to back that up. here are some video tutorials i used when figuring out required ah of my system (5krms setup) for starter i am sure you have done the big 3 already but here you go just incase as for ah calc check out this video and tell me what you think of it! also here is a cool alt one i found

normally what i do is set the gains via dmm first using a 50hz tone (for sub amps that is) and then plug in my remote GAIN knob and i use my noise and hearing to listen/smell for distortion or bottoming out or clipping as best as i can and turn it down respectively. keep in mind if you have a bad recording of your song aka 120 or less bit rate the song will sound funny. as for setting your speak amp(s) i don't use anything i just use the volume knob and turn the gains to about half way and adjust the gains as required over the next couple of days till i find a spot a like. since all mp3 aren't recorded equally(unless you rip them yourself the same ever time or normalize all your music) some songs will sound a lot different then others just remember key thing is don't pound your system until you know it can handle it and until you are comfortable with it. and remember keep adjusting those gains and use your ears to hear for stress in your speakers. also my way isn't the best but it is the way i use and it works good for me! everyone has there own little tricks to doing things and i am sure other ppl will chime in with there!

o wwow nice job!! did you ever figure out what that button was for?

I bet it is a Turbo boost switch like on Knight rider, "Turbo boost kit"

Awesome now that is an awesome update lots of good news

Looks great and nice work

The epic 16 volt setup lol that is what my next upgrade will be lol To do it get 16 volt batteries then get a step up device and away you go lol price say 600 plus that is the device and 2 batteries

now that looks cool! keep up the good work!!!

Nice looks clean so far is that a sealed enclosure?

You would only need one if you plan to play car off for long stretches of time

i would say go with a SAZ2500! they are on pre-sale right now for 525 each!!!! that would be plenty of power for that sub plus extra down the road for a potential upgrade! other then that maybe pop onto db-r site for a awesome reburb amp for a damn good deal! Refurbished Amplifiers : dB-r Electronics, Online Store and SAZ-2500D Pre-Sale OPEN - SSA Car Audio Forum but if you are dead set on the above listed amps i would get the saz 1500 they are beasts!!!!! and here is the clamp test if you haven't seen it yet Uniform Amp Clamp Test - SSA Car Audio Forum

How about a saz2500 they are on pre sale for 525 shipped but do it soon as. Pre sale ends July 4 th

I wish you luck on your road to recovery lol
