    Hey guys i would fist off like to say thank you for the big 3 help. i have all the parts but the wire and am getting ready to start it, The subs i will be getting will be two 10 inch FI SSDs with cooling, and amp i am not sure yet but might go with a new crescendo amp SSA now sells. also getting a second battery down the road.

    Well the question is do i port the box or not? I have the space to do it and i was going to do the port out of the top of the question is what do i do inside the box here is what its going to look like and it will be the same on the other side too.

    any help will be great

    Well I am having questions about the big 3 upgrade and running into some problems. I will soon be running Two Level 3 DC 10s in my truck on a DC 2k or a crescendo 2k.

    Okay where to start Here is the list of things i am going to get for the upgrade if you guys know of any better things or better prices please let me know.

    And i am missing a few items i will have pictures of them if you guys could tell me where to get them and the size.

    first off here is a picture i have a question with

    97c4098c.jpg

    Can i attach the terminal on top of the previous one i have right there the stock red one or do i have to get a different terminal? OR could i possible get aways with two simple ring terminals where that old one is? What would be best what should i do?

    Next Picture and question is where can i get this one of my buddies gave me it and i can't find out where to get it and what size it is.

    NExt question is i have a ground going off the negative of the battery and under the engine block i believe and i am wondering if i should run my new zero gauge where that is going or make a new connection on another spot and take that wire out? seen in this picture

    965fe0cf.jpg

    Next picture is is a little red box that gets power from the positive of the battery and houses power to my alternator and then runs down underneath my engine and i don't know where it goes because my truck is so low i can't get underneath and am wondering if anyone has a idea where it goes and if i should get rid of the box and just run wire everywhere or keep the box and use it for the zero gauge.

    Also i am wondering what size ring terminal is best for the alternator i am having trouble finding a small enough one.

    And with the alternator some people are saying put a fuze on the line going from the positive of your battery to the alternator i am wondering if i should do that or is it not necessary?

    And the last question here is a pic of my distribution block i believe and it splits the power from my sub amp to my mids and high amp and i am wondering where can i get one that will work with my zero gauge? also my mids and high amp only allows eight gauge is there a block that can allow a 0 gauge output and 8 gauge output. sorry if its confusing here is a pic of it right now i can explain more if you have questions.

    and last last question on the positive going back to my amp how far away should my fuze be? and will i need any more in other places?

    well thanks for going through this long question i just want to make sure its right i do it all right i want to do it myself because i want to learn how to do it. i will reply if you guys have any more questions and please let me know if i am missing anything.! Thanks

    I would do the big 3 in 1/0 and get another good sized battery in the back. The AQ amps are nice and not a bad price, Crescendo also offers the BC2000 for about $100 less.

    i can't seem to find the BC2000 do they cary it any more?

    Hey guys this is going to be a long question lol i am tearing everything out of my truck and starting over even though everything is mostly out. so where do i start

    i have a 01 GMC sierra single cab dropped on 20s will upgrade to 24s lol and i am looking at putting in two 10s for now possibly DC or FI audio depends the mounting depth on them are around 6 inches i believe ether Level 2 or 3 DC subs the 10s depending on price and the SSD FI 10s what do you guys think?

    so it should fit i will build a custom box sealed possibly ported if anyone can give me some ideas it would be great i am looking for any feed back.

    so that gets to the wiring.... Big 3 upgrade or extra batteries? i am new to the bit build stuff lol. can you do a big 3 upgrade and add more batteries or not? and then it comes down to Amps.

    a audioque 2200D will one of those work or should i go with something else price is really the thing right now and it seemed like it was a good price. do you guys know of any other amps that will do good with this system "best bang for the buck"

    Finally where do i start i was thinking about starting with all the wiring first the big 3 or the batteries etc and then getting the amp building the box and then getting the subs getting all the big stuff out of the way first and if anyone can help with the install info on how to do it it would be great i would appreciate any feed back on how to build the box or wire etc and i all probably end up getting one of steve's DD-1s because all this money put in its not worth blowing anything.

    Thanks guys i can't wait to see the feed back and help thanks a lot.
