i just moved my 2 mtx 9500 into a 05 sentra spec V... i have the 1000 watt rms mtx amp on it at 2 oms, and a 6 farad power accoustic power cap... when i start to pound them after then get so loud, they dont distourt but they just wont get any louder do yall think i should get a second amp to help push these things? The amp is a mono block, but has dual outputs... wouldnt that make it 500 watts rms coming out of each output? i imagine they can get alot louder if i did. and also, even with that 6 farad cap, im still diming out my lights but the digital readout on the cap is saying the battery is still putting out a lil over 12 volts... any ideas?

the amp is a thunder 81001, and the subs are set up for 2 ohms

i also need to work on heat issues for the amp in the trunk, and rattling problems.... i have a dynomat extream trunk kit in there but it isnt enough i guess.... any ideas on the spoiler?

if i leave the rear seats down wouldnt that help both the heat problem, and give a better escape for the pressure causing the rattles?

Sounds like you're running into power compression. At this point, the amp is doing nothing but creating more heat. If you want it louder, you'll need more power, or a different enclosure/alignment.

more power as in...more power to the amp? or get a second amp?
