sundown 3000d

Recommended Posts

put it in this morning...

spent the rest of day driving around enjoying it...

first, let me state the system,

1/0 knu-con, in engine and to the back

230a, alt 110a idle?

yellow top up front, kinetik 2400hc back

300a circuit breaker front, and back.

stinger volt meter.

with gain @ 1/2 on the amp, no bass boost,

1/2, or less boost from the alpine deck, at volume 20, 35 is max... one song popped the breaker.

voltage held good, well not at idle, but did drop just below 12 at times when pushing it hard.

the orion 2500 put up 147.2 when it popped the breaker, put I was pushing it way harder.

So, I hated the breakers then, and do now... what are you guess fusing these amps at?

this looks pretty good i think..

300a/360a/450a.

And, I'm considering another battery, this thing is a BEAST!!!

here are some test results@16 volts.....

3294 watts @ 84% efficiency (252 amps draw)

3938 watts @ 81% efficiency (316 amps draw)

4424 watts @ 74% efficiency (392 amps draw)

junk, the problem with breakers are, after use and, over time they get weaker, even during use when they heat up... they rarely are what there rated at as well... so I'm just gonna go back to fuse'n it, probably the Knucon on I linked above, start @ 300A, and go from there.... and the stinger volt meter I got keeps giving me problems to... working half the time... any good meters out there?

on a side note...

I can not really state how much I like this amp. So clean... tight,

oh, and loud.

more than enough for my two, 15 TC-3000's

just played with the x-over's on it a bit... made a noticeable difference
