I may be buying Tirefryr's JBL BPX2200.1 if he still has it which i believe he does the last time i talked to him. Anyways what do you guys suggest i should do to my electrical system right now to handle it. Only gonna run it on one BL with the gain turned way down. So im thinking 2 runs on 0 from the front back and the red top i have in the back right now will handle it or am i sorely mistaken? I figure i could sell the 1200d to pay for the HO alternator but what do you guys suggest?

Could series the BL and run it at the highest load possible. That would cut down on power draw quite a bit.

^^^ so true but if you take it easy you should be fine. most stock sutups (appart from cable upgrades will hande 1000RMS if you are carefull. Get that HO and things should be even better.

Does that change anything on a balanced current amp? i figured that wouldn't change a whole lot but i wouldnt know im not totally sure how the crown amps work. i just know they have 2 +12v and 2 -12v terminals so i figured the draw was up there pretty far.

2200w at 4 ohms and at 1 ohm. Same output power = same power consumption.

yeah that's what i figured well hopefully if i get it turning the gain down a good deal will be fine for now i only really need 1200 or so for the Bl to be loud. i just want to make it future proof and i know the crown amps are awesome amps and they put out way more than rated.

Ahh I didn't look up the specs on the amp.

One of my favourite amps at that power level

I've used one similar to that, Viper D2500.1, at one ohm, on one NSB125 clone + an old starter battery under the hood.

Something along the lines of a Powermaster D3100 + Big 3 + 1/0 is a good starting point

Yeah it seems like a badass amp and i know Tirefryr is a good man so i know its in good condition. I figured that my current setup would hold fine with the gain down and i can always manage a 250+amp alternator if need be im sure it would hold fine like that with both my batteries.

im sitting here looking at knu wiring kits i may pick up two of there 1/0 kits. will it be that big of a benefit to have 2 runs. id think so bc id be able to pull around 500 amps from the front battery but i dont know if its really needed.

For a daily application, I say it's not worth it. Get some welding wire, a fuse holder and be done with it cheaper. If you really want to do 2 runs of 1/0, run one positive and one negative.

thank man ill just run one then might make it a 2/0 since i gotta go underneath the car anyways.
