[dbeez 5,000+ posts]

ok i have already started over multiple times and dont have alot of budget left ,.i was suggested 1500 watts and 1 15 when i fist joined here i figure the amp is good for 1500 watts and just did not go with 1 15 this round . i was actually going to go with obsidian 18s

Not going to get you a 150 Nope. I recommend some things but not til a budget is set I will say 2 nice strong motored 12's in a good designed and built box goes along ways in a trunk car.

Thats partially why i am where i am right now i wanted 2 l7 12s that wasn't enough. I nearly bought 2 sa 12s ,maybe in the future as of now , i cant make use of stronger subs i would need to really to work on getting this voltage thing straight for this amp to be not so powerful i feel like it would have to go before the subs,.

anyone running a xbox style video game system in there car ? If so whats are you using for power??

Seriously all that stuff you have currently is low grade if you seriously want that 150 sell all and start with a good headunit nice front stage than do the electrical then get a real amp and some real subs and real box. You can't be a baller over night you gotta respect the grind that's a serious thing.

Dude, if you're already failing in your electrical why are you looking to add yet more to it with an xbox?

I'm sure i can run the x box with the sound off.

I'll sell it to you if you want to buy , until then i'm trying to fix the issues that i have which is my amp not even having enough power to stay above 13+ volts with the car on . i mean if i had an amp 1400 watts rms or more i am going to be all in the 11.4 volt range car running with no electronics on headlights,brakesapplied,heater,ac, ,if i turn that stuff on the amps would flicker .I have not tried it and im not going to.

Best/cheaper to do it right from the start than to try patching it up as you go.

This seems to be pretty simple. If you want to keep the stuff you have you should 1. Do the big 3 upgrade. 2. For your ground wires id drill a spot on solid metal, not your trunk and run them there bolted or what have you(might be fine where they are but id never run ground to the trunk). 3. Or easier, get a batt cap or a 2nd battery(or if you have a regular batt up front replace that). Doing a combo or any of these things(if you havent already) should help with some stabalization.
