You won't be able to power that btl fully without electrical upgrades. Big 3, batts, alt, etc...
August 15, 201015 yr FI explains what the different options are for in their Technical section on this forum.BTL Enclosure Recommendations - SSA Car Audio ForumThere ya go.
August 15, 201015 yr Author ok i know you need a descent amp preferably 2,000 + watts since the fi btl can handle 2,000 rms. But Like i said im new. how do i know if i need a new alternator or new battery and how do i find the right one. I place my car make, model and year so someone with education and know how could easily tell me a nice setupBEST AMP? BEST ALTERNATOR? BEST BATTERY? for 2002 taurus ses
August 15, 201015 yr If you're going over 2k, you're more than likely going to need a new alternator to keep up with the amp draw, same with the battery.The best amp, alt and batt all depend on who you ask.
August 15, 201015 yr Depending on what you are trying to do with your setup, you MAY be able to get away with not upgrading the Alt since you are a novice. If you have the extra money I would def recommend getting it done, but you will 100% want to add a battery or two. This will help your electrical system. As far as an amplifier, look at the Sundown Audio SAZ-2500D. Thats my 2 cents on your personal situation. Also, if no one has recommend sound deadner to you, it will enhance your setup as well. I would look into getting a DYNAMAT/BALLASTIC/ROADKILL application installed throughout your trunk at a minimum.
August 15, 201015 yr As for alternators DC Power Engineering makes some badass alternators and as for batteries i would go with Xs power.
August 15, 201015 yr Why a 15? 2 12's would have more cone area and you can all but forget 2 15's.How much money do you have for this project?
August 16, 201015 yr Yes to Lancelot. What is your budget? That will help us guide you with what line of products to go with. I mean, my BTL setup cost around $2000 and i could have easily spent more. Hell, i probably need to spend more. Are you prepared to drop that amount of money on this project?
