    Cap or additional batt or ho alternator?

    Here a slight mock up, yes its crooked because it's just placed in there, but theres a floor to hold the battery and electronics and wiring and everything. The jl amp is being replaced with a new skar amp, the battery will be turned around so the logo is upright. I made this top tray with hinges...

    So the front speakers are significantly louder with 30hz test, barely noticeable in the rear but it's still somewhat there. Guess I'll be using the fronts to share the subwoofer signal. Should have the LEDs glued in place and carpeted today, and possibly cut the acrylic for the windows...

    Thanks again, I figured there wouldn't be any shrink that would shrink that much, so either t tap or just tap into it. I wanted to do an iPad dash kit and use lightning to rca cable but my stock touchscreen has the climate and seat controls all in it too so I'd had to downgrade to base model...

    Didnt test which speakers had the better option, but I would still use the wiring before the stock speaker plug and solder into that then run to the input on the lc7i then the output to the amp input then amp output directly to speakers right?

    Thanks guys, very helpful. Today I'm gonna be wiring up the LEDs inside and doing the carpeting on my balcony since weather is an issue, hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to run all the wiring and replace speakers and tweeters if it doesn't rain or that'll wait till next weekend.

    So with this, then, where should my lc7i input wiring be wired to?

    Cap or additional batt or ho alternator?

    Just a solid color, no strobes or anything, just a little illumination. Air filter is still basically brand new and clean as a whistle. I thought with the lc7i your running from the input of the speaker wiring to the lc7i input then output to the amp input then to the speakers? Maybe I'm wrong...

    Cap or additional batt or ho alternator?

    Sorry it's been a while but quick update. Big 3 wiring with 0 gauge and new power and ground wiring at 0 gauge with the addition of an xs power xp3000 has stopped the rpm drop. In process of building the battery cover and amp false floor/beauty panel. Have everything cut and routed and ready...

    Cap or additional batt or ho alternator?

    So it's been some time and I've ordered the big 3, a 120ah agm battery a second 4channel amp, new wiring for everything, replacing the original power and ground with 0ga and new speakers and tweeters for the 4ch amp and I'm making a battery and amp box in the spare tire location because I need...

    Cap or additional batt or ho alternator?

    It's a 15 explorer limited trim with a 4.6l v6. Occasionally when the ac goes on, the rpms do a drop then go back up then drop and back up etc. Usually only once because I'll give it some throttle and it stables itself and idles perfectly fine. My lights barely dim at all honestly. At rest...

    Cap or additional batt or ho alternator?

    Space isn't an issue, vehicle is a 15 ford explorer. I've had same amp running a jl 12 w7 with no problem but soon as I switched to the new subs, I noticed the issue with the engine rpm. If I'm driving, some songs can be full bass the entire song and some good ones cant. If I'm at a red light or...

    Cap or additional batt or ho alternator?

    Ive done some research and I'm finding mixed reviews on what direction I should proceed in. I currently have 2 10" skar audio subs at 600rms each wired down to 1ohm and connected to a jl audio 1000 watt amp with 4ga and a 80amp inline fuse about 8 inches from the battery and a bass knob in...
