takes a 0/1 gauge input.

and yes to make 4000 watts at 13 volts needs a little over 300 amps

now I must ask.... why woudl you bother getting one of these? getting a good deal on it?

yes...to power 2 9512's...i needed 3000w rms and i just want one amp that will do that...so i need info on this amp...its a beast 33" long...4000w total power....i was gonna either go with 2 9512's or 3512's or even 2512's depends on the prices...it gets pricy...might have to go with a cheaper one like the 2 2512's with a t10001bd...it will only cost me like $1575 for parts and all that...wouldnt need a new alt or 2nd battery and all that...just a yellow top under the hood and my stock 105A alt should be fine with a t10001bd and 2 2512's...just dont think i can afford the big boys...too much to upgrade with the good stuff...i was just curious on the t40001bd..just to many amps..300A..wow...i need something like 150 to 200A total with my 4 channel and all that...thanks for the info though.

im sure that thing is underrated..puts out more than u might want

A T30001bd would put out over 3000 watts. So why would you need a T40001bd. Oh yeah, you don't. And you are not buying one

Doubt you will buy it. Hifonics amps are more @ your level.

ok...yeah the soundstreams are nice...but i am trying to get a price on a pair of 9512's with carbon fiber dustcaps...i know the prices online..but i want a price brand new from DD...i emailed them today..takes them a while...but they give you direct answers...but TypeR0149..you think the xxx6500d is too much for just 2 9512's??

I got quoted a few weeks ago for a 9515 from DD. $599. The 12" shouldn't be too much more, maybe around $549 and the CF dustcaps are what, like around $50?

Not really, its good stuff if your on a budget, have you ever seen internals on a brutus?
