[QUOTE="LuvnThatBass, post: 4112148, member: 561396"] please specify what you mean by you doubt everything is set right...?? and i am in no way being defensive, but i also am confused here. now i have done some installs before... and the only difference is that i now have set my gains using a DMM. before, i had a nice panasonic headunit and even when i had the opti2000.1d hooked up to a stock blazer electical there was voltage drop, i had to replace my alternator once before i got a 200amp one. ended up blowing the amp and got a visonik v4000xd. and a 200 amp alt and a small yellowtop in the trunk, and still had a good amount of voltage drop. THIS situation, i am using a different vehicles electrical and have done the big 3 with huge cable. using a monster amp and a power hungry subwoofer and have not a significant amount of voltage drop. starts at 13.8v and drops to about 13.0ish in daytime. and have no metered at night. lights flicker at punchy hits, but not too bad on regular bass if at all.. my ground is proper, and the big 3 is done perfectly. and as far as i know the alt is 117amp. and i set my gains using a DMM..i just dont see where i could have gone wrong.....
