Posted April 22, 201312 yr Gents, I'm thinking of selling my Crescendo BC2Ks and going to a Stetsom 6K5ES 2ohm version. I like that it will do gobs of power (7200 watts) on 13.8 volts. I usually do about 14.3/5 on my HO alt. I have dual runs of power/ground ran, 3 XS power D3400 batts, and the big 3 done. I think my electrical is close or near up to par to support it. My questions mainly regard reliability. If I get the 6K would I be safe running it full tilt? I read these things don't like voltage over 14.9/15 volts so I'd like to think I'm relatively ok there. Just looking for any input/suggestions. Thanks all Also Aaron do you have these in stock? Shoot me a PM por favor.
April 22, 201312 yr I would keep what you have, or look into a different "upgrade". What are you looking to accomplish?
April 22, 201312 yr Author I would keep what you have, or look into a different "upgrade". What are you looking to accomplish? Well I'm looking for more power. My subs are D2, so I can either run them at 2ohms or .5. I'm thinking I could go with a BC5500D and buy the warranty but the gain in power there is only incremental. Any other suggestions? The idea is to be able to run two Zcons with more power. The 4K works but I want a tad more.
April 22, 201312 yr You need a bunch more power to make it noticeable. I know your box is good but try it different positions. If you can't get a gain you like how about a different box?

April 24, 201312 yr Author I'm going to go ahead and order the Stetsom. These things will do rated at 12 volts rights? Gonna buy the 2 ohm version.

I've been doing some digging around also. In the end I decided to try it out and see for myself. Is that ok with you?

I figure worst can happen, it blows and I go back to using my Crescendos. Some reviews seem favorable, others don't. Edited April 24, 201312 yr by R3dt34rz
