[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8540514, member: 650438"] Ding ding ding we found a winner. This guy actually telling you straight up what it really means to run 5k+ watts Not just some shop that wants your money and will install it no matter how bad of an idea it is. There's a difference between noise aka what you think is loud and clean vs actual music reproduction. Whatever you think you know about music, there's a totally different world of sound quality possible that you have not tapped into. WE ARENT TELLING YOU TO BUY SOME DUMB AMP KIT. We are telling you to buy a 50 feet spool of wire instead. IF you ask how to wire, i'll show you with a picture because apparently you cant comprehend whats clearly stated...
