[QUOTE="BassDrop69, post: 8674229, member: 676994"] Hey guys I have a 06 Dodge 2500 megacab with the 5.9l diesel. two optima yellow tops batteries, 0 guage wiring to a kinetic 800 in the back storage compartment in my megacab. from there I have 4 gauge to a digital designs m1d about 2 feet away to two sundown sa12s d4 rev3 wired to 1ohm with 12g wire in a netaudio custom built ported box. It bumps decent but not anywhere close to most sa12 videos ive seen. gain on amp is up at about 7/8. no problems with amp overheating. Is my m1d underpowered for the sa12s? I was looking into running two m1ds linked but then it says m1ds linked is 2ohm so that wouldn't work with my two 4ohm sa12s wired to 1ohm right? ive thought about selling the m1d for a sundown 3000d but would like to try to not loose money selling the m1d if I don't have to.. rms on the m1d is 1700 at 1ohm 14.4v and 1200 at 1ohm 12v. my voltage meter while running is pretty stable on 14.4v. thanks [/QUOTE]
