Lucky 76

i would love to know who said a lower voltage is better ... a higher voltage allows ur amp to run more efficient meaning u can turn down the gains =)

Not sure who told you they don't like over 3v... but the limit is 6v. There are issues with fancy RCA cable connectors, though, many times they don't make good contact. Cheaper cables don't have this problem. do u consider the knukonceptz krystal cables fancy? ... i just bought them and i am buying some sundown amps

=)

what are u expecting me to hit once 4 18s go in w 8000 watts ... u know were making my suv a 2 seater now dont u lol

upsetting results lol

i dont think the sundowns are regulated ... that is why most people run them at a higher voltage to get more wattage out of them ... interesting that output remained the same

i dont think u realize how quickly that amp will drain your batteries ... u would need to charge your batteries after 5 mins of use because ur amps would continually shut off and will evenually go into thermal shutdown because of how low ur voltage will be dropping ... without the proper charging supply u risk damaging so many components now only in ur sound system but ur car as well ... your voltage WILL drop way below 12.5 with that amp if u do not have a new alt ... a new alt is only like $400 and is the most important upgrade to support that amp

somehow my friends 2 single 4 ohm subs measured out to 6.3 ohms lol

i have a rf 40001 and i am selling it ... i bought it in june and it was installed by mid july ... i will sell it to you for 1100 shipped with warranty for another 10 months

very useful information ... i dont think there will be as much of a difference in current draw once you increase the volume further ... it could be different tho because facts state that there will actually be a greater percentage drawn from the square wave

you need to upgrade your alternator and get at least 2 d3100s first and then think about which amps to buy ... id go 2 of the saz-3000d strapped but if you dont know what you are doing then stick with the 4500 ... you can run a lot of power to those subs but not daily ... if you are using it for a daily driver then just a 4500 will do ... it will put out close to 5k at 1 ohm n e way ... in order to get 5k you need to upgrade your electrical system or everything has the potential to be damaged including your car

what is the most you are looking to spend and what amp are you running?

does anyone have any experience with this unit ? ... can it do damage to anything in my car as it regulates the charge of your alternator to around 15.2 volts ... how easy of an install is it?

Theres a guy on the J-body forum who speaks pretty highly of them. Hes had good luck with them and talked me into getting one when I have the money. thanks. when u get it tell me how it works ... r u running a h/o alt? if so by whom? ... will it overheat if it is producting 15.6v or w/e it is?

u can always put the tweets on the dash ... they would blend good as well because ur glass is reflective ... do u have speakers on the dash already? what frequency range do u plan on playing the dash speakers at and the door speakers at ... no need to put speakers in the rear unless u r in the back a lot

x2

try this http://www.icixsound.com/vb/showthread.php?t=40067 the problem is the rca output needs to be grounded not the rcas ... im pretty sure there is a difference ... i did this in my car and it worked ... it didnt get rid of all the noise but most

do u have a pioneer h/u?

yes they did smell whenever i used them not just when i blasted it, they smelt all the time. and i did get a bl with cooling option now just need an amp is the sub a d1 or d2? the pioneers were d4's wired down to 1 ohm, the bl is a d2 Wire the BL in parallel to drop it to 1 ohms, and get a 1 ohm stable amp. thats what i am planning on doing but im not sure what amp would be better to push it, an audioque 1200d or the saz 1000d. I would buy the saz 1500d but im trying to save some money and stick with the 4 gauge power and ground i have installed and the stock alt. Sundown SAZ-1000D and call it a day. x2 ... u would have been fine w.o. bp but u might as well get it because it isnt that much and ur sub will thank u

what should my electrical look like to support these and the saz-100.4 ... i am debating on whether i want to buy 2 of these or just get the saz-4500d ... right now i have a 260 amp alt by iraggi and the stock was 130 amp ... i was thinking about buying some of the c and d 100 lb batteries (supposed to be comparable to the hc3800) ... how many would i have to buy to support this amount of power ... i understand i would need a bigger alternator but this is the biggest they make for my car and a dual alt setup is near impossible

that is why i am debating what to do ... i am going to ask jake again and see what he recommends ... i forgot what he said

yes they did smell whenever i used them not just when i blasted it, they smelt all the time. and i did get a bl with cooling option now just need an amp is the sub a d1 or d2?

ill be buying 4 100 lb c and d batteries shortly ... roughly 500 aH ... i am at a stop most of the time because my town sucks ... is that too much?

please elaborate A LOT more ... how many btls? ... what amp/amps are u running with?

I honestly dont think they can take no more than 800 rms personally especially with that hard plastic cone, I had a pair on a 2000rms amp also but never came close to blowing them. But anytime I was playing full tilt (where my settings were at before clipping, each sub seeing 750-800rms) or close to it, I could hear the plastic cone thumping and the sub bottoming out plus it would play any louder after a certain volume. I noticed that alot about subs that have a plastic cone, they distort more when you get close or to their rms potential. just my experience with them ya i play mine full blast all the time so that is why i guess
