[QUOTE="Wagonized, post: 8457088, member: 579070"] Have a two parter here. Just as the title says... If I have a wall of 4 15s and 4 500.1s burping 160.0 on a 12v setup running say 5 D3100s (110ah x 5 = 550ah total) then I switch over to a 16 volt setup running 11 D1600s (50ah x 11 = 550 ah total). With the proper stepdown modules and alternator charging etc. What kind of gains do most people see when doing this or a similar swap?? Secondly, if you were building a big-ish groundpounder. Not something to set records but something to be 160+ on music....would you spend the extra cash to run a 16 volt setup to be that extra level of ******?? Or would you stay 12volt like so many loud guys have done without any issues?? Thanks [/QUOTE]
