[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 8673912, member: 540940"] 1) I haven't used a DSP, but I don't think there'd be any point in a kill switch for everything...just stop whatever's playing. A switch on the sub remote wire wouldn't be a bad idea. 2) Depends. If you're blasting it all the time, yeah, it will be a fairly big electrical load, but relative to what a lot of people are running these days it's not a huge power demand at all. The pio amps are efficient, and 400w isn't a ton of power anyway. The RF can be gained down a little and shouldn't be too bad other than full volume sessions with a lot of bass. Looks like your Murano has a 110A alt. Not huge, but not bad for ~800w. The alt's work load will be higher, it's the nature of high power sound systems. No alt lasts forever, stock electrical demand or otherwise. 3) With the engine off, just be aware. If you blast it for an hour - that wouldn't be good. For a few minutes - probably fine if your battery's in good shape. If you put a sub switch in and turn off the sub you could probably play at moderate volume for an hour or two and still crank the engine. [/QUOTE]
