hows my system?

what other ohm loads could you run this at?

1.33, but the amp doesnt have enough power to push the subs very hard, i had 3 cvrs wired at 2.66 and they were louder than the cvx's at 1.33, so i wired them down to .33

with the system bumping and a dmm on the speaker output terminals on the amp the lowest resistance i saw was 1.8, idk how accurate that is, i jumps with the music lol, all the way to like 40 ohms

you measure resistance when system is off -_-

wow, .33 on a Brutus? You will need a new amp soon...but your score is decent for an amp that doesnt do rated and subs in a sealed box..louder then me anyways //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

its reading 1.4 does that mean my box rise is 1 ohm, i read u have to use a clamp meter and dmm and do some math to calculate box rise...

yeah well i really want another sub and either 2 kicker zx1500.1, or im tempted to try the new hifonics brz2400.1, its cea compliant

ya thats what it is man, a clamp meter is used to seen amps drawn and a DMM measure output this setup is used to calculate the rms of an amp.

btw i believe CEA compliant is only good for 4 ohms... id look in to wiring your system up instead of down to .33 and run an audiopipe 3000, with box rise and decent electrical i think youll be alot more stable, louder, and clearer.

im sorry to tell you this, but a sealed box does NOT mean "tighter, harder hitting bass".

lol dude he understood that with your 10 other flaming posts....

Got any pics of the trunk? Putting a system in my trailblazer soon and still looking for ideas. Where did you put the amp and extra battery at?

 

[mal1980 10+ year member]

42 hz, doors closed and windows up

 

[mal1980 10+ year member]

post pics tonight, battery is recessed into the storage area on passenger side, and amp in the storage on the floor board
