    DD Z4 12 enclosure help

    What size enclosure does the DD Z4 12 like? I've heard they like a bigger enclosure but on DDS website there is no specs available on ported enclosure I couldn't find anything posted anywhere on the specs.

    How Much Power Would You Give This Sub

    I have a FI TEAM 4 12 its got a 4" voice coil the rated RMS that FI has rated it at is 4500 watts rms. I currently have it on a soundigital 5k. People were telling me to get a 8k amp and that it would be perfectly fine and that the sub would take all the power. I'm thinking of switching out the...

    Safest way to wire digital volt meter

    I'm gonna be running 3 xp3000 as a secondary battery bank. I'm wondering the safest way to go about wiring a volt meter to this rear battery bank to monitor it. I've done this once before but I don't feel like I did it correctly that's the reason for the post. The very first time I did a volt...

    Whats the difference between SD 5k EVO and SD 5K POWER

    Could someone please explain the difference between the two amps? I've mainly dealt with korean amps over the years but I'm wanting to get into the brazilian amplifiers. I ordered a SD 5K EVO X. The only difference I saw between these two at a quick glance was the SD 5K POWER had dual power and...

    Secondary Battery Question

    Would one XS power D3100 be sufficient for one 12 @ 3000wrms with a 90a alt? There's no option to upgrade the alt. I talked to mechman and they said on the 2017 Hyunadi Tuscon no manufacturer will make them for this car. Right now I have a 12" with no secondary battery running around 2000wrms on...

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    So I contacted mechman today and bad news that said nobody makes high output alts for a 2017 tucson and the universal alt wouldn't work cuz the alt has a OEM harness. I was really hoping to find a h/o alt for this car cuz my goal by fall time is to be at 3000wrms. I wonder if two xs power 3000xp...

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    [uPDATE] So I re did my entire BIG 3 and I think the whole fluctuation in voltage was because of a bad ground. I bought an actual voltage meter and bought a nicer big 3 upgrade kit installed them both when I was done checked voltage with headlights off and heater off I had a constant voltage of...

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    Sounds like that would be a PITA to do lololol. I googled all night for ELD on a Hyundai and the only thing I saw that control voltage is the PCM on these cars. To bypass that you still need to give it a power source somewhere. Cuz the PCM controls way more than just regulating the alt.

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    So is there a way to fix the problem so my amps are seeing 14V? I was planning on adding a second battery but idk if that would even help cuz of the shunt resistor? Any ideas they would be greatly appreciated.

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    Okay cool. I was worried cuz of this stupid engineering of PCM controlled alts that the big 3 wouldn't do much. My knowledge on electrical tho tells me otherwise power takes the path of least resistances so it should improve even with a PCM.

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    Did you bypass the PCM or get a voltage control module? I'm just really worried about voltage drop as I'm probably pushing close to 2000wrms. I read some articles of people that added a second battery and it did nothing with PCM alts that adding a second battery wont even cure the problem with...

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    I think I answered my own question. after researching PCM controlled alts this is the conclusion i've made when i turn the head lights on or heater on in the car the volts jump from 12.5 to 14.3 cuz at that point the alternator kicks on cuz its sending a signal to the ECU that the alternator...

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    Yeah more research I did it appears that people with PCM alts are having the exact same issue low voltage with accessories off with big 3 and once they turn accessories on like headlights or heater the voltage goes normal in the 14.3-14.7 range.

    Installed BIG 3 AND Now After Got Severe voltage drop

    It does appear that I do have a PCM alt I just did some research on a lot of Hyunadis and all of them have it. I was just reading up on bypassing them but would that even be ideal?
