[QUOTE="Yota4WD, post: 1183044, member: 563182"] I'm thinking about adding a single Rockford Fosgate Punch Stage 2- 8" sub to my already existing system which consists of a Pioneer DEH3700 HU, 2- 4" Pioneer in-dash, and 2- A6961R 6x9's in the back. Currently I do have a problem with dimming of the HU when there are bass hits on the existing setup, but that's only when trying to push out a lot of bass. The dimming isn't nearly as bad when the truck is running, but it will show if you look. My question is if I add this RF 8" in a custom box ([I]I've chosen my dimensions so it fits behind the seat so a sealed box with .249 ft³[/I]) behind a RF 200x1 amp would that just completely drain all electrical potential I have? [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif[/IMG] My truck has a 60 Amp alternator, a good battery, but is stock everything. So considering that, if I ran the HU on a neutral EQ (with little bass) to power my speakers, and just relied completely on the Sub for bass would my problems only worsen with dimming? Or would I be able to swing it? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
