Im gonan run 2 batts. Im gettign ready to pick them up in a few minutes here and wanna make sure I get the right ones. 34/78 under the hood and a 3100 in the rear?

im currently running a Zapco 360.4 brigded 180x2 for my componenets and a Xtant 301a regulated 300w (old school pre MTX) for my sub... huge fan of US made amps, both amps i know for sure are underrated and are badass amps, but im stuck i have an opportunity to pick up 2 audison amps for about 600 bucks... the LXr4.300 and the LXr1.400... i know audison makes great high end amps, but these are their middle end stuff... i was just wondering if it would be worth it to replace my current setup w/ the audisons has anyone tried the LXr line out? thnx for lookin

I have a chance to get some Kinetik 16v batteries for about 150 bucks from a local shop.. i wouldnt be running on 16v but on the 12volt side, should i get them? they have 65 AH and are apparently very good. any questions or comments?

what will i need to power these two beasts?

Does anyone have a birthsheet for any US Acoustic Amp? If you do, could u post a picture. Thank you. Qckrun

just wondering, I was looking for images for a banner and I found HU's on their site, they resemble on the outside like the first run of RF HU's for a few years ago, anyway here is a pic of the top end unit: B)

Just bought a pair of Kicker SX900.4 amps from HiFi Connection for under $300 each (through their ebay link). Nice 4 channel amp for that price and they are an authorized dealer! Brian

So I installed my 4 AA Carbon fibers and my SAX-100.4 just now and when i turn my truck off a "POP" comes from the speakers, i only turned my truck off twice so i only heard it twice and i think its coming from 2 speakers. How do i get it to stop thanks guys.

To push 4 1508's? I can run 2 1508's @ 2ohms to each 1211a (1200w), or I can run all 4 @ 1ohm to the AQ2200 (?). As for my electrical, I have 2 redtops, 200amp alt, big 3, & 0awg. What's going to be the all around better setup?

I just installed a Pioneer AVH-1400DVD, Audiopipe APSM-1500d, and Kicker L7 12 in a friend's 2011 Dodge Challenger. It all came together good. Sounded great while playing music off of his iphone and flash drive. And it sounds good when using the radio until i turn the bass knob up (max output at about 750 watts at 1 ohm). The more i turn, the more static i have. I have never heard of this happen before. What could it possibly be?

I need an Alpine head unit that'll work with 3 amps ( 2 sub and 1 mid/highs ) I'm thinking about, IVA-D106 http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/iva-d106 Opinions?

Trying to decide on an amp for 2 RE audio SR10s. They're rated at about 350rms. Each will be going in a .88 ft^3 ported enclosure. Trying to stay under $350. Alpine pdx 1.600 Kicker zx750.1 Cadence DCA-1000 Haven't ordered subs yet so any wiring configuration is an options. And i'm open to any other options or suggestions.(except something directly available from the manufacturer. This is replacing stolen equipment so I'm dealing with AJRS, awesome company btw.) Thanks

OK, 2001 Grand Vitara, 200K miles, stock alt for all I know. My lil Zuk's alternator has me worried. I has always noticed that the lights where dimmer at idle and the dim noticeable when you roll the windows etc... Well- installed a small system and every time it would hit(lil 600w Soundstream) the lights would dim. I figure it has a pathetic lil alt wire, and the Big 3 would probably fix it up. Always seemed worse at Idle/lower rpms, than at cruising speed(3K rpm). I finally got a volt meter installed. When I first start the truck it is in the 14.3 range til it warms up, at that time it stays around 13.5-7 as long as you are cruising. But when I stop, the voltage wi…

i'm looking to upgrade my dual flip screen for a normal good quantity HU. i can buy a pioneer deh-p6200bt used from a friend from the specs it looks good on paper, i have never owned a pioneer HU any thoughts or opinions before i buy it. thanks.

I have a really small 2-door car. I need a ballpark on how many ft of 1/0 to buy to do the big 3.

I live in indianapolis. When the day comes that I get my equipment installed is there anyone on here that could help me with getting my amps setup properly so I do damage my speakers

Hi I am wondering if I should do the big 3 even though I'm not replacing my alternator. I have a 2005 Chevy 2500. I dont know my stock alternator's specs but I'm sure it can't be high. Should I do the big 3? I'm going to get either a kinetik 1800 or 2000 to put under my hood and I plan on running about 1200watts rms. If I do the big 3 should I use 4awg or 1/0awg? I don't know but I think 1/0 should be necessary of my alternator is stock.. But I dont know much either lol.

Audison HR100

well my stock alt (105a) is starting to chit out on me. at red lights, the volts drop real low, and the car sometimes will shut off then back on real fast....its not the batt, i tried it with my stocker, as well as a kinetik 2400. its prally when i played my powerbass xa3000d on the stock batt, and the alt couldnt keep up recharging the batt....

What kinda upgrade would I need to run a saz2500d v1. I know a ho alternator but how big of a alternator and would one battery be enough

Will a 225amp excessive amperage alternator be enough to run 3 Kinetik 2400s? my electrical is currently stock but i will be getting a new alt and those 3 batteries pretty soon. everything will be in 1/0awg big 3 will be in 2/0awg i am about to get a Memphis 4KW and i know its a power hog. i wont power it up until i get the voltage to back it up. and eventually when i save up some more money im gonna be runnin 4 Bl 15s in a blowthrough. any help or advice will be much appreciated.

OK, we JUST got the car a few weeks ago and started installing the system. it's not done yet by a long shot. I do not have the big 3 done yet. I do not have a HO alt. however, I used to run 1 red top under the hood and 1 stinger spv70 in the back without big 3 or HO alt in an Olds Cutlass and Dodge Intrepid with ZERO problems. the systems in those were WAY louder and hit much much harder than this one, plus I had a kicker 350.4 and 200.2 in those as well. when I ran the lanzar in it, it was at 1 ohm , now only 2 ohm, and before that an inefficient Audiobahn A1500HCT that popped 100amp fuses left and right till I just ran the power wire strait to the battery no fuse. thi…

I am looking at a arc xxk4050 amp that is a couple months old he wants 300. for it. Is that a good price? the sheet says 118-120 watts a channel. I have heard a lot of good things about arcs but never heard more than a couple minutes in a demo room

could i go wire straight from the alternator to the battery in the rear? the alt would also still be wired to the front battery as well. the car im installing is an 2000 honda accord. would i need to fuse after the alternator and before the batery in the rear? in my head this would work but ive never done it this way before...
