    Second Battery Help ??

    a battery next to your amp will definitely help. I woudn't buy a kinetic. You can get g34 duracells for like a hundred bucks at sams club. XS is a good choice just pricey. if you don't have a agm under your hood you should get one before getting a trunk battery

    couple kinda dumb questions

    Also twice I have set my gain only to find it different than what it was. I've been subless up until a few weeks ago. Hooked up my 1500 set gain, check it later and I'm reading over 10v higher than where I set it. Got a new amp the other day and the same thing happened with that. I'm starting to...

    couple kinda dumb questions

    meaning no subs? yes. Idk wth is going on. I think it might be my 4 year old ****** headunit causing it but I can't say for sure. I fucked around with it but left the settings the same and it seems to be okay now (within 3v for the most part until I get past 60hz) . My only concern is the...

    couple kinda dumb questions

    low pass is turned all the way up (300hz) and ssf is all the way down (10hz). On headunit EQ is flat, loudness off. This is not normal?

    couple kinda dumb questions

    just went back and wrote everything down. set volume 45/62 played 40hz test tone, set voltage to 50v. Had to turn the gain almost all the way up, at 42/62 where I wanted to set it it wouldn't put out 50v with the gain all the way up. 20hz- 57.5v 30hz- 57.4v 35hz- 56v 40hz- 50.0v 45hz- 46.7v...

    couple kinda dumb questions

    I'm setting the gain and filters with a dmm. I always just used a 40hz sine wave at 0db, set the gain, did the ssf/lpf by eye and called it a day. However now I'm sending my subs over double their rms so I want to make sure everything is setup properly. First I turned the filters off and gain...

    Couple questions

    good call just crimped some hyperflex (if anything smaller than SHCA) and it barely fit in the 2/0 lugs What size dies does everyone use for 1/0? Mine are in mm2 50 seems big 35 seems small

    Couple questions

    First of all, I have a bunch of sky high 1/0. Does anyone know if this fits regular 1/0 copper lug ring terminals without much trouble? Secondly, is it a bad idea to mix batteries if they rest at different voltages? I have a bosch 75ah agm battery under my hood that is about two years old and...

    How to cut double baffle with a jig saw

    my jigsaw barely cuts through one layer of mdf let alone two. I made the bottom hole `~1/4" larger for that reason.

    How to cut double baffle with a jig saw

    So basically I have all of my box together but the 2nd baffle and top. Holes are cut in the first baffle and it is screwed and glued. I made the hole about 1/4" larger than it needs to be incase the holes don't line up perfect. What's the best way to cut the holes for the second baffle I'm gonna...

    SAZ-3500 Question

    Probably because most people running 3-4kw have a battery close to the amp so it's not really necessary to have dual inputs.

    Running stock alt on 2200 watts

    I think you would be okay. I ran my saz-1500d @ 1ohm with a 80 amp alt, big 3, and a dedicated ground and stayed in the 13's most of the time... with the stock battery.
