Right now with his stock alty, I'm guessing we could burp a 149 maybe 150 but it wouldn't be for long since the volts drop pretty fast. Once the new alternator is installed (It's only going to be a 160amp until he can get enough money for a bigger one, but for $65 you can't beat 160amps) and his memphis 4k put on the subs, I'd estimate a 151 or possibly a 152. But who knows, maybe the 155 mark is closer than I think. It's just crazy loud now, a lot louder than the old box, which did a 147.6.Very nice vids! Love the glove box flex..
Any idea on numbers?
I believe its the mounting location that caused the amp to fail. I have had this situation with almost every hifonics amplifier from hifonics bxi1606,2006, hercules, 2607, and the XXV Colossus. They seem to be very senstive to vibration. In your case, I'd assume vibration was the major cause.Just an update: He smoked one of the amps. I think the problem is just low voltage, but once he gets his stimulus check in (shouldn't be much longer) he's probably getting a 200 amp alty from excessive amperage. And he going to buy some more 1/0 wire and do the Big 3. Luckily he bought the amps off sonicelectronix so they have a one year warranty.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
Well, he said he heard something pop. I got to his house like 5 minutes after it happened and when we plugged the rca's in to play the sub, the amp just started rolling smoke out of it.I believe its the mounting location that caused the amp to fail.

x2, absolute monstersas for batteries, I'd look into d3100s (powermaster). You'll thank me later when you noticed you've made the right decision. Awesome batteries for daily application, as well as burps.
Is a d3100 just a big yellow top battery, or something else like kinetic? And he's like me about who sits in the truck, and nobody that smokes can come close to the truck just because he hates the smell of smoke. And he always leaves the windows down everywhere he goes as long as he's in view of the truck, or it's a rainy day, so gas buildup is not an issue.as for batteries, I'd look into d3100s (powermaster).

3100 and yellowtop should not be used in the same sentence //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gifIs a d3100 just a big yellow top battery, or something else like kinetic?
