[QUOTE="KTMrida4life, post: 7584349, member: 637865"] I cant hardly turn it up while idling, maybe 30 volume before I see massive voltage drops. But I was told on here by another member not to use ANY bass boost, and right now Im currently using alot........... so Im going to turn all the bass boost off, and reset my gains using a DMM. He said it may be clipping, causing even more voltage drop. We'll see, but Im pretty sure I need a second battery. Wish I could just add a battery to what I got... Edit- So I turned all bass boosts off. Adjusted gain to 33V which should be something like 1625W (.67 resistance if I wired it right) and now Im having no more voltage drops than I did before I upgraded. 14V down to 13.6. Bad news is, its uber quiet compared to how it was. But it does sound much cleaner, I just miss the loud [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
