[QUOTE="Smitty, post: 7889128, member: 644928"] SQ... just running a single 8 off 500w, although I'm still expecting a good amount of output, especially for what it is. With 400w & a set of ID CXS comps I'm hoping for some very good midbass, midrange, & highs. As far as battery, I was thinking add a second because I do like to listen with the vehicle off.... a lot. If I add a deep cycle agm opposite the regular battery I assume there is a way to wire them so that the Interstate is used with the vehicle running & it switches to the agm with the engine off? For my electtical I went overkill...only running around 1kw, but I used 1/0 knu ofc... & instead of adding a "big 3" I just replaced ALL of the factory wiring. All the power & ground...even the runs to the starter, fusebox, & even the ground straps. It's beefed up. Also, the factory 136A alt should be fine for my small setup. 40sq of deadener is for the doors, headliner, pillars, & rear wall. The floor has already been heavily deadened. I'm also usimg closed cell foam on the door panels & interior panels to keep them from rattling. & I just wanted confirmation on placement of the components. I know kicks are popular for imaging & sq, but from what I read doors are better for my IDs due to needing a lot of space to reproduce midbass. [/QUOTE]
