Battery is in the trunk. Ive heard bad things about Optimas lately isnce they are now made in Mexico. Also, they are $50 more than a Kinitec1400 and Kinetics are rated higher and have better reviews..

I figured as such^. The electrical system in my car is 4 gauge wiring. 130A alternator so I suppose theres no real need for a high output one since ill be running only 1000watts max. Would just a Kinetics1400 battery work then to keep up with the added wattage from the system? Or is there a...

bump....any info is greatly appreciated. Do I need big 3, high output alternator, better battery..?

Hello all I have a 07 Chevy Cobalt with the battery in the trunk. The electrical system is very important in these cars since it also powers the power steering. Thus, I am really going against hooking up my system to my stock battery. My system is: dual 12" sundown audio e series subs (400...

are there certain wiring kits I should stay away from? I see there are a bunch at a wide range of prices

Thank you sir

Look, I know most of the members on here know there stuff. I am just starting out getting into car audio so u gotta bare with me on stuff lol. All I want to know is can i run those dual sundown eseries subs wired at 2 ohm with the aq series amp and if it will run efficiently and safely that...

Possibly take $240 shipped?

The aq1200d has people running that at .5 ohms. Just wondering if running it at 2 ohms is bad? Obviously 4 ohm is better, but is running it t 2 ohm still efficeint enough not to lead to problems?

I wasnt going to run at 1 ohm...I was going to run at 2 ohm. IS that still bad or no?

Looking for opinions on amp now. Heard there may be a better less costly amp for my setup besides the aq1200d. I found the following 2: Kenwood KAC-9105D 1800W Max Class D Monoblock Performance Series Amplifier (I know it is not 1800 watts, but it is 900 watts rms at 2 ohm) Hifonics HFi1500D...

bump I can give dimensions for trunk. Looking for best shipped price for a box.

http://a248.e.akamai.net/pix.crutchfield.com/ca/learningcenter/car/subwoofer_wiring/2DVC_2-ohm_mono.jpg ^that way? lol Also how much wattage will I get out of that?

or should I just go with the dual 2 ohm subs instead of the 4 ohm and wire it at a 2 ohm load to the amp so it would be just a bit over 800 watts? I don't plan on upgrading this setup anytime soon and if I do ever upgrade I would sell this setup and get something different.

So I am still confused how I should wire this without compromising any part of my setup (battery, subs, amp, altenator). I have heard a few ways on this thread on how to hook it up. I looked on crutchfields wiring diagrams http://crutchfield.custhelp.com/rnt/rnw/img/enduser/Mono_2-4ODVC.jpg Is...
