Need some opinons

Recommended Posts

Need some opinions! I am gonna be running a 3000d. I am gonna have good electrical. Should I stick with the 1ohm load and see what kind of power I can get out not dropping below 13 volts or since I have the electrical to back it up go with .5? What kinda power difference will I see?

my bet; will be not much due to thermal rise and you can say bye-bye to your warrenty

Day to day there really is no benefit to going to 1/2 ohm - your ears won't be able to tell, only the meter.

The practice of running under rated impedance comes from SPL competition with a well known and consistent impedance rise now everyone wants to do it daily.

What kinda power difference will I see though? Wouldnt mind running it at .5 for better numbers =D

What kinda power should I expect at around 13-13.5 volts at .5 and at 1ohm?

just do all your wire jumping outside of the box... by either utilizing the dual terminal cups or d blocks if ur stright wiring it. Then you can run 1ohm daily and .5 at comps

That would be 2ohm daily or 0.5ohm at comps.

If you have a dmm you could get actual output voltages each way

by reading these questions alone i will tell you stick to 1 ohm or else youll be back here in 2 weeks with a new thread called "WHAT TO DO WITH BLOWN AMP"

i never thought i would see a team mate have such little hopes for a amp of that caliber.

but you are right. it seems like it would be a waste to gamble a saz away for no good reason.

you mean you never thought a team member would be so helpful and steer guys away from problems as i have tested 3000ds at 1/2ohms with great results but i think i know what im doing a little more than this guy. 1 ohm he could clipp it, get voltage drop and still be kinda safe. at half he wont be.

ya i know but he keeps on asking about 1ohm and .5 maybe he has quad coils

remember when theabunai shut you down in that other thread. lolimus maximus was that entertaining. i cant seem to find it. you make like you know, but know so little.

and even that vid of you showing us your voltage drop shiit. for 1 i seen your foot hit the gas peddle about 3 or 4 times on the corner of the screen, and 2 you werent even playing it at full tilt.

i would love to thee that topic.

as for the video i had addressed that. i have even made vids proving that my voltage does not go low.

and i never said that you were wrong.. i ONLY SAID THAT YOU HAVE LITTLE FAITH.

i never told him that it would work no problems i never said that your a lier,

keep cryin.

and i dont think it would be smart to go half ohm daily. infact i talked to SEC about this before he ever made the topic.

haha you are a retard from reading your posts im now dumber. and i was refering to your "proof my voltage doesnt drop" vid. when you were trying to prove to everyone i seen your foot hit the gas at least 3 times and you werent full tilting it big baby. lmfao

and im sure if the abunai comes on here he will show you the thread that you got pwned. he is a sundown sales rep fyi.

and i work at a car audio shop FYI.

well like sundownz "jacob" said the difference that you can actually hear is slight or maybe none at all. if your going comps i say its a go. and if you have that much electrical id say do it.

not even worth running at .5, especially if you are worried about your amp. i look at it like,"do i want to fry 800 bucks?". sure i'd do it at a comp, burp that bish. ya 4 dekas u'd be fine. i run mine around .35 with two runs of 1/0 and a couple batts w/ a stock 140 alt.

you told him not do to do it or else he would blow the amp... and now your telling him to do it.

am i missing somthing.

it was a kinda do it at the risk of more than likly watching 800 dollars in smoke someday. i hardly play full tilt for more than a minute or so.

i just read that he has 4 group 31 batts, a 200+amp alternator and after he typed it seems like he coulld pull it off.

dont be mad big baby. :drink40:
