That comparison can be used for any manufacturer.

What vehicle is this in? Enclosure placement and driver orientation play more a part than most think.

I have thought this too. If it happens I bet it will be a ZED design

Sounds like normal voltage fluctuation to me.

Stefan, 12V batteries do not "bump" an alt up to 14V when the alt's output capabilities are maxed.

Not sure man. I thin the Bravox us a santoprene single roll surround. Looks like these Crescendo's have a progressive surround. Could be wrong though. The bravoxs also have the progressive surround , pretty cool No, I do not think so, maybe a progressive style spider. Yes the bravox have the double surround Ah. I searched the Bravox site before I posted and I did not see anything other than a single roll

To support a 5k amp you need more than a 250a. You know this. Why would you, or anybody, buy a 5K amp and not plan on using it? Just to say oyu have it? I never mentioned not using it. Realistically if your playing music, the impedance in the circuit will be varying all the time, so you won't be drawing the max current 24/7. Between his alternator and his battery reserve, he should not have an issue with voltage drop hurting anything. Sure he'll likely experience some slight voltage drop, but that doesn't mean his batteries will go dead, he'll get stuck on the side of the road, or his ecu will fry. There is a misconception that I as pointing out. Battery reserve has NOTHING to do with voltage drop when the vehicle is on and when you are trying to prevent it from happening. The alternator(s) supply the +14V. Batteries, for a 14V system, rest at +12V. Once the current demand exceeds the output capabilities of the alternator voltage will drop. Period, the end. No if and's or but's about it, 250a inst enough for a daily setup on a 5k amp (this does not even mention the vehicle's electrical demands or other amplifiers used in the system) And if it is than your 5K amp is.....wait for it.....overkill. Maybe for some people driving around at 12V is ok

Why do you want a Sundown amp? DC Audio or Crescendo amps FTW. Why so many batteries? You have a HO alt(sorry to hear it is DC Power). BTW 5.0K on two 12's is overkill by a long shot for a music/daily setup. lol im just trying to be loud and the batteries.....was just trying to make sure I have minimal voltage drop... If you have current draw that is exceeding your alternator's output you will have voltage drop regardless of the amount of batteries used. Multiple batteries are worthless unless you plan on driving around at 12V or playing your system with the car off. Why do you want a Sundown amp? DC Audio or Crescendo amps FTW. Why so many batteries? You have a HO alt(sorry to hear it is DC Power). BTW 5.0K on two 12's is overkill by a long shot for a music/daily setup. He probably wants to match the subs with the amp. BTW how is 5k overkill? His electrical will probably support it. OP Look at some SSA Zcons. Very nice from what I've been told. Nah man, you need more than a 250a alt to support a solid 5k amp. Nobody needs 5k for a music/daily setup. I dont care WHO you are. OVERKILL. thats an opinion NOTHING more. ....and? and you keep pushing the issue like its a fact... and its not... so why do you keep saying it... and then adding things like "and i dont care who you are" ..... its an opinion.. leave it at that. ......and? Yeah it is MY opinion. I've stated that once it that reply, fucktard.

Not a good idea at all. i thought thats the answer id get. o well. i still want to get the sub re coned and it may take the place of the zcon for a week or two before sale... but not perminantly. Use this driver as an opportunity to build you own. There are many soft parts available and even software programs to help.

I highly recommend Excessive Amperage. And just in case you haven't heard me say it...DC Power is the bottom of the barrel.

Not a good idea at all.

My original thread was edited for unauthorized sales on an open forum Funny since I am not a vendor for any audio company. Anyways, Crescendo has a new lineup of PA mids. Should be baddass. Again I do not sell these. I am posting a new product for y'all to check out

why? It's an SSA forum thing. Nothing wrong with PSI.

I would recone the 15 myself and sell that chit for top dolla

Look'n tight bro. I am anxious to see the final outcome!!!! Who are you going with for alts?

Nice amp. My 2.0K is purrtttyy

Lawd, did I see six super tweets...ouch!

I worked too. Plus we got 6-8" of Snow up here in the Poconos and in Lancaster/York they got 3-4". Hey phucker I didn't know I was the forum PA organizer Yeah yeah, I will try to update this thread when I know of further events
