[QUOTE="DWancha, post: 2256162, member: 568409"] I drive a 1996 Cadillac STS and i was wondering what the largest amp i could buy would be that would work to full potential without upgrading my electical system. I have a 140 amp alternator and an optima battery. I was also wondering if the doing the big 3 would make a significant difference in how big i could go. I currently have a rockford p6002 that supposedly does 700 something at 4 ohms. Im running a 12W7 right now and i just traded for a soundstream dbx 15 and it needs more than 700 watts. Im thinking i shouldnt go for anything over 1200-1300 watts, but i wouldnt mind something that could potentially do more at lower ohm loads if i upgrade my elec system later. I've been looking around and i found a PG ZPA 0.5 in my area for $300. Does anyone think i could go with anything bigger than this safely? Give me some suggestions guys. [/QUOTE]
