low voltage

voltage drop, lights dimming strain on alt but its only 1200 watts spend an extra 200 and get a smiple yellow top for autozoone or advance and you dont have to worrie

no matter what you run other then 100 watts your going to have the same problems. your stock system can only handle whats in the car with a lil extra. the stock system is not made to run high wattage amps and subs that take power to run

I wouldn't feel comfortable running more than 1,400 - 1,500 watts without AT LEAST a big 3 and battery upgrade...

its only 1200 watts

The rub1.2500d is rated for 2,500 watts @ 1 ohm.

Depends.

Are you amping your front stage as well? If so, how much power?

you'll need an extra battery for the back IMO. especially since you'll be blasting the heat soon being in Erie, PA and all

Your Expedition has a pretty good factory electrical system. I'd just do the big 3 and give it a shot.

i plan on just putting a lil amp up front nothing much and ok if i add a second in back does it have to b matching batts
