My first question is What is the proper way to tune my new subs with an oscope. For reference I am soon to be installing 2 sundown 8s and have a sundown saz1500d to power them. I would like to give each sub 500 rms (if that is healthy) and the amp is rated at 1500 rms at 1 ohm. The subs would be wired down to 1 ohm. How would I go about doing this, I bought an oscope just for this.
My second question is that I just now finally test fit my sub box in the car and with the amp on top (Where I want it) It just misses the speakers by a millimeter or less, I think it actually touches it. So now I want to know, would it be ok if the rear deck speaker magnet is that close to the amp for a long period of time. Or would I be better off bolting it to the seat? And Is bolting to the seat bad for the amp in any way?
Or if you can be creative and give me an idea? I also thought maybe I could add like a half inch or more spacer to the rear deck speakers making the magnet not hang as low so that they are not in direct contact with the amp itself. Would this work?
Any and all help is appreciated. I am super pumped to finally finish this install, I just got the 160amp alt and big 3 done today and my 0g through the firewall! I'd like to have these answered TONIGHT!
Thanks!
