Thanks for the replies guys! @ Mac N Cheese -- I don't know yet, i haven't been able to get it out of the enclosure! I'm still thinking of ways to get it out lol its such a tight fit.

On with the progress part of the pictures! Stock alternator putting the DC 320 amp on! Testing it to see if it works adding inline fuse right after i took this picture lol stock p.o.s. Front stage on full blast Hello SDS Goodbye vibrations

Okay guys! finally some pictures! This is all the progress i have so far, i haven't gotten all of my equipment yet.. its still in the mail rubber ring got unflapped*

Yeah, i bought another one from Audio Express just now. Same head-unit. I don't have time to wait for a replacement.

Alternator installed, upgraded Big 3, now i'm gutting the truck and putting on 40 CLD tiles then getting the trucks windows limo-ed out, i should be getting some packages in the mail today! Oh, and my SMDs are signed by Steve, pretty fucking sweet! I only opened one, and its #061

I did, no power.

But... the head-unit should still turn on if i connect my power and ground directly to the batt, right? -even if fuses are blown in my truck and wire are shorting out?

Can i wire my D3100s in parallel and charge them like that, or will i have to do each one by itself?

Just woke up, grabbing my test light andheading to the truck. I don't really understand what you mean

The stock harness for the truck was cut out about 15 years ago. I literally just un-installed my kenwood and installed the alpine. Kenwood worked, Alpine didn't work. I lost the posts for my DMM so i cannot use it..

So if you put the power, ignition and ground from the head-unit on the battery directly and there is no power, is the head-unit faulty? Because i only get a tiny tiny spark on the positive post... other then that, no reaction. http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/ida-x305s/

No.

Thats all for now

Good point, voltage at amp.

I am running more then 1 battery, 3 amps, 1 320amp alt.. where would i wire the stinger voltmeter to get the overall voltage of my truck? Never ran one before

It starts tonight! Pictures coming after we're done for the night OH! and oh my god do these SMDs look sexy through the plexi windows!!!

Thanks, that clears things up a lot. I didn't get no nut though.. not the end of the world, but was i suppose too? Wondering how come i didn't get no paperwork..

I got my new alternator from you guys, but i didn't get no paperwork.. My stock alt has two post on the back along with the harness.. the 320amp i got only have 1 post, along with a harness and a skinny blue wire. How do i install? What is the post on the back POS or NEG? What is the blue wire for? Why didn't i get any paperwork? ..never done this before. - i called and left a message.

Alpine best for function IMO

Lookin' goooood & clean!

Okay great! I thought of this.. but wasn't sure if it was recommend or a "boo boo" way to wire it lol I hope sooo!

i'm sure it won't sound all that great on music, it will be tuned for burps only this time around. but your more then welcome to sit in it lol I get home in a day or two... then its crunch time. I have to make a stop at HandCrafted Car Audio too What numbers are you thinking you're going to get with this?

Yup, you're going to finish before me lol can't wait to get/give a demo!

Please someone correct me if i am wrong, i am going to strap my Sundown Audio 3500Ds and this will be my first time strapping amps, so i need to see if i am thinking correctly. The Master amp gets the input from the head-unit and a mono RCA from "BR Out" connected. The Slave amp ONLY gets "BR In" connected from the Master amp, leave the Gain and other Filters on the Slave amp set to 0. Each amp gets its own remote wire coming from the head-unit. Each amp gets its own Power and Ground. Connect NEG terminals of both amps together using 8AWG wires Wire my subs like so; Then take the POS wire from my sub and put it in the Master amps (far left) positive terminal, then take the NEG wire from my sub and put it in the Slaves amps (far left) positive terminal, ending up with (2) empty terminals (far right ~ positive) If anything is wrong please let me know.

Why?
