Going with 4 Sundown SA-8 v2's. What amp should I run?

[sbarber82]

I am looking for suggestions with a attached reason.

I have been looking around and am leaning towards SUndown or AQ amp. I have been using HLabs 1600.2 on my one 15 but I am looking to go a different route for the 4 8's.

Two Sundown saz1500's? One Sundown 2500d? 3500d?
AQ 2200d? 3500d?

I am going to be running stock alt and battery for now untill I can afford to buy HO alt and extra bat

I dont see you supporting much over a 2500 on all stock. If that. But 4 of them would love a 3500.

Aq 3500 **

It will only be stock at first. I am looking at ho alternators and not really sure how much I need.. 220,250,300,300+???

[NASTY08IMPALA]

Unless u ever plan on running 5k + 270-300a should be good and a couple good batts

[Dtrom]

250 and a couple batts should suffice.

[NASTY08IMPALA]

Yea my aq3500.1 came in today far superior to the saz 3500 but then again its rated@4300

[pro-rabbit]

I think the AQ3500 would be a bit much for those 8's daily lol.

We did a setup with 4 SA8's for a guy on here with a sundown 3k @ 2 ohm and it was getting pretty loud with just that power.

[NASTY08IMPALA]

**** we had his 3500 on 2 8.s at first ...gain was set way down tho..now we are doin 4 of them on it @ .5 gona send them about 750 each ..sshould be nasty

[sbarber82]

I figured they would want 700+ each. I know they are rated at 500rms but have been told they can handle more than 3x that. I think a 3500 would be plenty and prob even a 2500 would move them well.

250amp with one extra batt or 2 extra batts?

[NASTY08IMPALA]

Yes go 2 extra batts if u get a 3500 ...they r stout subs idk abt handling 3x their rns daily tho...thats a bit of a stretch..but 750 is plenty to get them movin...yea a 240 or 270 from mechman would be good setup

[PowerRANGER03]

Yea especially in the truck. 700-800 would be perfect for daily use. Ill def post some vids once we get it done this week.

[sbarber82]

I bought a 3500.1 rated at 3900+ at 14.4v. Hope the sa8 v2's can handle that daily or I just wasted my money on this amp
