watts vs. true watts
i can sometimes hear a difference in some amps. Crossovers/slopes do alot along with distortion and voltage ratings BUT 90% of amps sound exactly the same. So to answer ur question theres a million variables within the 12v industry. Until you have more accurate testing devices its free game.

The easiest way to get over that obsession is to look at a DNX-8120. You'll forget all about that DDX. actually i found out the DDX is the same unit as the DNX - navigation. EXACTLY.

16 volt setup question

Custom bracket
nope im just an enthusiast thats been thru hell and back to attempt to add an alternator on my car. Stock wires i honestly dont know. aftermarket alts are usually one wire or use a relay to hook up (very simple) but stock on my car atleast have a 4 wire plug. Unless u know what wires are what its basically useless. There's plenty you can get and be fine but if your going to add an alt i would try getting the biggest one you can. something like 200a. When thinking of how much current you need alt wise just get the amps fuse rating and divide in half (for music) That's a good reference for the minimum your going to want but there's several variables you can use to guesstimate that number (power avail from ur stock alt, average alt power, avail batt power ect ect)

16 volt setup question
no its a module that provides 12v for the rest of ur car. you can also do something like the kinetik hc16v but using both teminals daily is harder on the battery. Id trust it a million times more then the step down module thou

Custom bracket
depends on the oem alt and what hook ups it has
-
Custom bracket
as long as the second alt is 14.4v it should be compatible. the main part and concern is getting the second alt mounted and getting a belt running around it. Also remember the alt must be mounted to the engine only nothing connected to the chassis. and hopefully the person your talking about is local because if the bracket is just off the slightest bit your going to run into issues

Custom bracket
custom bracket is just that custom. so there really isnt a guide on how easy or hard it is. You will need a badass welder/fabricator to get a custom bracket done (again dependent on vehicle)

Gain Reduction Knob
