will a Planet Audio Ac4000.1d amp have enough power to power up An Fi Audio SSD 12 Subwoofer

I currently have a jvc HU and it only has one rca. i have both rca cables wired to my 2 channel amp to my current subs, I want to install a second amp for my front door speakers. I just ordered new subs and a amp from IA. So it will be two death row's running on a 20.1 and a power acoustik 2 channel amp for my doors. So how would I do this or do I need a new head unit?

It's an Atomic 3000.1 2 FI BLs @2ohms 1200 XS power battery in the rear 2 runs of 0 gauge wiring stock alternator/front battery Has been playing fine the past week or so, but as of yesterday, any time the volume gets turned up around halfway, nothing ridiculously maxed out, the subs make a funny noise and the amp goes into protection mode. I've already checked that the ground is good, no loose wires or anything touching metal, the usual routine checks.. Not sure if it is getting starved for power or what's wrong at all. I'm not 100% audio savey but I know bits and pieces here and there. The amp is an older model that was damaged when I bought it, but I sent it back to…

Am I able to use a DMM to see if the rear channel on my 4 channel amp is working? I've wired it several different ways and i've yet to get anything from the rear side. I'm assuming that there wouldn't be a reading if the channel wasn't working, but I really don't have a clue.

i hav an install 2 weeks from tomorrow and was wonder what is a good amp for two alpine sws 12d2. i need find a recommended amp for them since i ran them on a crescendo bc2000d with gains half way. thanks to all that can recommend me one. budget for amp is 150 to 250 dollars tops 300

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…

will the ppi black ice 800.4 be enough to run a set of alpine type r components up front and a ssa dcon off the rear 2 channels bridged? or should I plan to invest in a second amp also are there any electrical changes that have to be made for that amp I would assume not but due to all the computers in my jeep I want to make sure the voltage would be safe

Amp warranty at .5 ohms?

So my jeep has a stock 160a alternator. I plan on upgrading to about 2k rms here in the next few weeks. I was wondering if that alternator would cut it if i did big3 and got some extra batts. What do you guys think?

to push a mtx thunder 6000 @ at least 250rms at 4 ohms as a midbass driver, are either of these amps over rated? also anybody else know something that would fit the bill for $110 or less?

So I am attempting to install my upgraded alternator and big 3 this is a first time for me with both situations. Everyone from here has been super helpful so I was hoping you can bail me out since my car is in pieces. I have currently removed the original alt and put the singer alt in that I purchased. I have not connected any wires yet this is where my confusion has started. I have located my grounding wire from engine to battery and will upgrade it which is one of the big three. Now the other two is where I am getting confused. 1.The alt I purchased from singer has an upgrade to increase my voltage and the device he put on has will not allow me to re attach the two c…

I just came across a deal on one of these. i've read comments online about people having problems with them. Wanted to know if anyone has use this amp. Wanted to know if i should buy or pass. Your info will be greatly appreciated.

whats your take on the three amps ive been eyeing- AQ 3500, DC 3.5K and Crecendo 3500? im spinning a Singer 220A alternator and 2- kinetic HC1800. so what you think- there all the same. they are the same price new. thanks for any input

The other day, my subwoofer suddenly cut out and I traced the issue to my subwoofer pre-outs on my Kenwood DDX-319 head unit. Troubleshooting done so far: No AC voltage comes out of the subwoofer pre-outs on the head unit at all Connecting the sub amp's RCAs to the rear pre-out produces sound from the sub (ruling out that it is my amp or subwoofer) There is no resistance (0 ohms) between my pre-out grounds and the case of the head unit (leading me to believe it is not simply a blown fuse in the head unit) Everything else on the head unit functions as intended My head unit is out of warranty by a couple months. I emailed Kenwood about the problem, but …

so i just replaced my battery two days ago and the battery is already swelling up the next day and today not much has changed. my first guess was heat and still might be, one other info is that the battery is loose not tied down since the bar or battery holding thing that goes across it was to tall to hold the battery in place. so the battery is loose and able to move should i get a new one and tie it down. this battery is the second one and if i replace it it will be the third one from them battery: duralast platinum 34r car toyota camry alt: 130amp from a 2003 highlander(original stock 80 amps)

Cruising around and bam battery light. Checked voltage, amp terminals, alt post, and batts. All checked out. Cranked the bass, voltage was dropping to 11.9 when the day before just dropped to 13.2. I have a dual alt kit. I unplug my primary and boom 12.9. I gotta check a few fuses and relays but I believe it just died completely. It's a tenney 270amp but I'm gonna probably get mechman or someone to rebuild it. If not ill grab me a hairpin 380!!!! Kinda sucks cause I was about to buy an iPad to glass into my dash.

Hi all, am in search of either of the above stated amps. I would prefer the Sundown but am very open to the Soundqubed. A perfectly operational used amp is what am looking for. My current budget it $250. PM me if you have one available. Thanks

would anyone know how much more on average you can increase the output of a stock alternator just by doing a rewind. i added a second battery which is not much. the second battery is my old battery that is a stock from upfront in the engine bay. i have the 130amp alternator from a 2003 highlander, just need to get to 200A output but i know each alternator is different and will not be able to get much more out of it. thanks to all that can help me

Hello, I have a '12 mustang with the factory head unit and I want to power the door speakers and a sub. Is there a way to do this without replacing the head unit? My air controls are integrated into the same panel and there are no aftermarket options for me that look nice, and did I mention the faceplates are $300 and up? not including the double din I think a line output converter would be the normal solution but how do you get 3 sigals out of one?

I just aquired a DieHard platinum group 35 battery. I also have a kinetic hc600. Would they be safe to run in parallel together?

Hey all I have a pioneer gm-5300t amp that Ive had for years and bought some new incriminator i65c and was curious if i should use this amp.. I'm not real savvy when it comes to this so i figured id ask.. I figured I could post a site that has info for it. Ive had it hooked up to my wifes car for a small 12 for the past couple of years.. so could/should i use this? link. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8522_Pioneer-GM-5300T.html#tabs

Toyota tundra with stock alt, hid lights, 100rms x 2 channel on the doors and 1300rms on the sub. I'm looking into buying a new battery for under the hood because there is no place to install a second battery in my truck with still a fully functional bed and max seating. I was looking at the kinetic 1800 or 2200. Not sure how big I need to go but I'm pretty sure I can squeeze just about as large of a battery as I could find in the stock location.

Hey guys I've been looking into getting a bass reconstruction processor. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these and which one I should get. I can not afford the epicenter before its reccomended.. but if you guys could give me advice before I purchase I would really appreciate it.

Im building a sealed enclosure for my 2 15" Obsidians that's gonna be about 4 Cu Ft. after displacement. I plan on using my Hifonics Zeus 2000 which has a subsonic filter on it which for my ported enclosure I set about 5 Hz under my Box tuning. There's no option to turn the Subsonic filter off so I'm wondering what exactly I should set it at when using it for a sealed enclosure. Sorry if this lacks detail I'm unsure how/what to base setting it off of so I'm not sure what else to include.
