what do you guys thinkin about putin a Memphis PRD 1000.1 on the each of em?
Orrr, a JL 1/1000 on the each of em?

Help me out, I dont kno shit lol

i'm guessing you are not a budget. Why would you waste your money on a JL 1000.1 when you can get some good quality amps for 1/2 of that price? I would just get one mono amp that does at least 2000 watts rms.

And I would pick the JL amp over the PR series if you do go that route.

let's start over..... what is your max budget on the amplifier?

 

[Howe88 10+ year member]

lol ummm.. 550$

 

[shaneb 10+ year member]

550 for just a amp?

 

[Howe88 10+ year member]

uhh, I guess. Too much or not enough?

 

[shaneb 10+ year member]

Plenty I would say. You should be able to find a good mono amp that does 2000rms for that.

Hopefully someone will chime in on what you should buy.

Look into that audioque.

Ok. and say I put a amp like that in my trunk.. Am I gunna have to get a different alternator or a couple extra batteries?

 

[shaneb 10+ year member]

hm...I think anything over 1000rms typically needs some form of upgrade. Definately the Big 3. which you can search for details on there's a sticky of it somewhere.

Also depends on the battery you have now and what amp alternator you have factory.

What about the AQ2200D?

with a typical 1500 watt setup you will experience significant voltage drops, as much as 1.5 volts possibly, so yes you need a new alternator that is at least 140 amps. I'm guessing your alternator is between 75-95 amps, correct.

Well the car I have-the lights dim like a mother ****er. But Ima be goin home and gettin a Ford Fusion ina couple days. They'll prolly dim on that also. I have no clue about the alternator.

So maybe spend 400 on amp and like 150 ona new alternator?

Ford Fusion will probably have 85-95a alt.

So I would look into a upgrade on that.

Man I'm glad I only have 800w system. lol.

you'll need about 250 for the alternator to be honest.
