[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8096827, member: 591582"] Did any of you tools realize that he's running 4 gauge to a 2200w rms amp? You should have an extra battery or two, 0 gauge wire, h/o alt and big 3. Without enough current supply, your voltage drops. If you have just your factory electrical, you are absolutely over-straining it. Your clipping is likely due to the voltage drop, because your amp is working at a lower voltage, causing it to try to put out more power than it is receiving. [/QUOTE]
