[QUOTE="Mast0rMason_, post: 8720626, member: 674973"] Ah wicked thank you. Also the amp I'm testing is 460W rms, if I put the voltage to about 450W 440W would that suffice the voltage drop? The manual says 460W RMS at 14.4. Is the a mathematical way to work it out of its dropped to say 13.6V when the bass hits? As the voltage drops then goes up a tad once the car realises it needs the alternator spinning more. Do I set the sub gain with a -10db tone too? Also what happens if the speaker wires too thin? Think theirs like 12 or 10 strands of copper in the speaker wire, but each ones receiving half as its wired in parallel. [/QUOTE]
