so would a 120 amp be enough or would i definatly need another battery? i guess i could put the 1000 cca under the hood and remove the small one. theres plenty of room. the most ive had in this truck was 800 watts. i just wanna make sure i have enough power to run the amp to its potential.

Dude it was hard enough for me to draw that in paint as it is. I wasn't even about to try and add some fuses, but to answer your question yes, they were in the design.

It's a '93. Yeah both the batteries are different. One Is a standard size, and the other is a big 1000 cca. So definatly a battery isolator unless a get another battery the same size as one of the other's right? Or identical shall I say.

Haven't been here in a while, but just ordered a new BXI-1606D for my 2 livewire 12"s. I'm going to be running it in a stock dakota with a 90 amp alt. I want to add a second battery for it, but not 100% sure how to run it. Will it be hooked up like this: Or should I have a run from each...

It's just a little crunch 125 rms per channel. Nothing fancy, I've got the nice MB Quartz running my subs, just needed something to boost everything else. I've got Kenwoods in the rear, and pioneer's in the front. I think I'll just go with the fronts.

My headunit's only got subwoofer outs, and 1 set of RCA's. So I could only use a 2 channel right? I'm already using the sub outs. If I used a splitter, and split the 2 into a 4 channel amp it would sound right. Is that the way it works?

I adding an amp for my mids and highs, but all I have is a 2 channel, so I'm trying to figure out if I should hook it up to the 2 rears or the 2 fronts. It's a 93 dakota, and the box is in the back seat between the 2 rears. It will also run a pair of tweeters on the pillars. Anybody have any...

I've got a VR3 headunit I'm using now. The only thing I like about it is the mp3, and the flash drive support. Somebody gave me a nice JVC El Kameleon. I'm also running 2 12's and an MB Quartz amp. How would the kameleon compare to the vr3? Any better like sound quality wise, or with a...

Here's a couple pics. I'm not quite sure about the size though. In the picture the tape show 2 1/4, looking at it straight on shows 2 3/8 on the outside of the surround. 2" exactly from the inside.

Holy moly! I built a hobby one like that from a kit, that cost like $14. It put out 10 watts into 2 channels. I think it had more components that that amp to

I've got a sony home theatre system that I bought a year ago. the center channel speaker went out. It's got a 2 year warranty, but is useless with out a reciept. Go figure. Where can I find a replacement 2.5" square 6 ohm midrange? I've searched on the internet and found a few, but they...

Yeah, I had some punch 8"s that were rated for 150 each. I ran them at 200 each, for the longest time, and they ran fine. As long as it's clean power most can take over what their rated. Now I used to have some of them $20 legacy subs that said 500 watts!! I knew they werent rated for that...

I know they'll handle it, just wasn't sure if it would would be worth it.

Cool. I'll do it. Anybody got any suggestions on a good amp that'll do 1500 at 1 ohm or 4 ohms. I can wire to either. Don't really care about the brand, just one that will work and last. For around $200 - $250, possibly a little more.

I'm running 2 12-s off an 800 watt amp now. I was thinking about upgrading to a 1500 watt. My question is how much of a difference would there be. I know theoretically (spelling) you can 3 db when you double the power, but how much louder would 1500 be compared to 800? I listen to alot of...
