[QUOTE="T.I.K., post: 7254584, member: 626887"] I just bought a 1500watt MBQ amp, it's gonna be powering a DC level 4 18" woofer. I don't plan on ever turning that gain up past 3/4, so it should only be putting out ~1000 watts @ 1 ohm. Here's my question what upgrades am i going to need? I understand that I am going to need to do the Big Three, but should I add a second battery, should I upgrade the battery under the hood? In addition, once I have the amp and sub installed, will there be any negative effects if I set my gains low(~500-600) to take it easy on my electrical, until I can get it upgraded? [/QUOTE]
