[QUOTE="CNB83, post: 8709586, member: 680309"] Hi, I recently purchased a Taramps Smart 3 and wired it to my FI SSD Neo DVC2 @ 1ohm. It shuts off giving me the <9v light on the monitor. I did a voltage test at my amp and battery (alt to hard to get to) and when the kick hits I do see the meter drop to 11ish volts before the amp shuts off. Is my 140amp alt not enough for this? Would a 250amp do? Is my 100amp fuse in the power line the issue? Should I wire it down to 4ohms? Also I noticed when it does hit, kinda sounds weak on the lows, kicks and highs hit loud. My alpine Mrx-m110 hit way louder just using 1 coil (i know I shouldn't have done that) @2ohms. Even my old 350rms amp powering a Alpine Type-R hit better lows. I've also been seeing something about Taramps not liking 5V outputs? My HU is a Alpine CDA-9886. I was a little weary on purchasing a brand I've never heard of but I did, and now I'm regretting it because my audio is terrible. Please, any help is appreciated. Thank You. [/QUOTE]
