    amp draw total...

    wether i read them or not, i dont agree with them. As i read more posts i realized that mostly all of you probably live in the GHETTO or at least go your car from someone that lived there and had the radio stolen at least 5 times and you are probbably the 10th owner of your car. I on the other...

    class d amps

    Class D is more effecian ONLY at lower freq. and uses MUCH less head than a A or a B. (equals More power, less money, less heat = very good) CLass A is extreamly clean at all freq, but runs very hot, as does a class, B, but i know at least JL has made a hybrid that is just as clean and a little...

    Need help on a JL 500/1...please

    nope, but i did hook up my 500/1 and my friends 500/1 to my factory speakers to see what happend and it blew the cone right off one hit. Theortically it will work if everything is EXACT, but far from likely. If you have two of those amps, you should return them if you can to the authorized...

    jl 300/4

    the 300/4 is sooooooo nice. but a little pricey, i went for the 500/5, and im actually selling that one and getting the 450/4, it is suppose to replace (?) the 300/4. it puts out 150 times 2 to the front and 75 times two to the back. i cant wait. its coming in mid march.

    1 Ohm Amp

    How is the distortion at 1 ohm on that amp? my friend has Zapcos that are 1 ohm stable (optomized) i dont know, but they dont use RCA's, it is a digital input from the deck like in a home stereo thing. Sounds amazing, but its rated at 200 watts, so it putts out 800 at 1 ohm and he competes...

    Noise Ordinances ****

    FIFTY BUCKS!! The cop wrote the ticket for 275 bucks!!!!!!!! but i went to court and the judge gave me ten days to remove it and have the dealer fill out a form saying it was removed. once the wires are in, takes about 15 minutes to put my amps back in and the subs. HOO HAA

    Alt or Battery?

    caps are essential. It helps with voltage drops every thing has a voltage drops. you dont need a constant supply of small power as you do need a big burst!! caps hold a charge (alts DONT, the just recharge the battery) but even if you ahd a full battery and the best alternatory that battery...

    All of you familiar with orion: Orion XTR2400 to power 2 JL W7's

    if you can afford 13.5 W7, then get two JL Audio 1000/1. Id be there if I won the lotto! lol. also you can get W7 in 1.5 or 3 ohm, so im not familier with orian but if you got a 2000 watt amp that is stable at 2 ohms (pretty good amp) then if you were to wire them in series you would get 1.5...

    Zapco!

    Has anyone else besides me heard of Zapco amps. i love them. my friend has them and they are 1 ohm stable and have digital inputs (ask anyone who has surround sound how much digital is clearer than analog). The great thing about these are that you can enter a compitition with a 200 watt amp at...

    Got me a yellow top today!

    same exact thing with me, except on the way to getting the alternator my car caught on fire and it was decided that i was losing too much heat and energy due to faulty wires and the alternator wasnt needed yet. Every mechanic and audio installer i talked to says that they only way you would...

So after i replaced all the wires and my fried AMP (thank GOD for Tweeter). We tested how much the amps pulled along with everything else and it was...

    amp draw total...

    That is what your amps draw AT MAX. and since car stereo is NOT regulated, those amps may draw that many ampers at say 0 degreese celcius for .23 seconds putting out at 2.4534 ohms at 14.4 volts, realisticly you can test them. i have 1000 watts running and the most it pulled was around 90 and...

    How many channels required for 3-way comps?

    YES EXCELENT CHOICE!! with the boston, i have those myself, and you only need two channals for them. if you hhave rear speakers then you would need at least a 3 but most are 4. I have the 500/5 powering them now with 100 watts and they sound unbeleivable, but JL just came out with the 450/4...
