[QUOTE="A12bknown, post: 6858065, member: 622487"] Im sorry but this stuff kind of got me. I go to get my alt. put in and the mechanic says he is running 8000 watts, with two 12s and some coaxials, 3 amps all off stock. He did say he got an Optima deep cycle battery (marine) but ALL is stock. No Big 3 or anything. Then he states he is hitting 152.6 dbs. I have no clue how he measured. I have done a lot of research on this audio stuff and his setup seems to make no sense. Deep cycle batteries are known to charge slower than "audio" batteries and 8000 watts seems a little out there. I think he may be going of max and not avg (rms). Can you even run a setup like this on stock? His whole notion that a larger alt is bs seems, well stupid. His stock alt should have burned out by now! I will have to get to you guys on his setup. I need to see it next week some time. If I am wrong or missing some key concepts please in form me. Thanks.
