[QUOTE="snapperhead, post: 258082, member: 545016"] Anyone need a system???? LOL sorry this thing has given me nothing but greif. Anyway here is my trouble. System deck-Pioneer Deh-P8400MP 2 amps- 1st esx 175x2 running components 2nd amp esx 475.1 running sub front speaks jl xr650 coaxial rear pioneer 6x9 4 ways subwoofer brahma 12 in ported box power 90 amp alternator 4 gauge system 80 amp fuse for sub amp 30 amp for component amp 150 amp stinger block fuse for system. Initial troubles with lights dimming at higher volumes, I found this acceptable at the time. other then have 2 sets of component blow (stereo shop didnt read the manual) they also fried the deck by accidentally hooking the power wire to a speaker wire and I also had to have the tensel leads redone (at no cost, cept shipping THANK GOD) on the brahma. Everything was great [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] My new problem is ever since I smelt an electrical smell i.e. something smoking. my sub amp cuts off at like volume of 13-16 with serious voltage drops. I thought it was the alternator. Took it to dealership since it is under extended warranty and they replaced it. Still having the same problem after new Alternator. I understand I may need a second alt or a bigger alt. But could the battery possibly be failing or am I missing something? checked fuses and wiring nothing loose or blown. And lets not get into what the dealership had to say. Going to wally world tonight since battery is still warranteed and see if that is the trouble. Any ideas please post. Thanks Forgot to add that the sub is bridged @ 1 ohm [/QUOTE]
