[QUOTE="jelliot5, post: 8192152, member: 652317"] Hey dudes, Im thinking about upgrading my system, and i am tired of worrying about whether or not i will be wasting my money. So i need some advice. Right now, i have two power acoutstic MOFO 122x's in a ported box and a 1600watt ONYX MB Quart monoblock amplifier; 4 guage wiring. I am looking for an amp that will put out between 3000 and 4000 watts RMS at 1 ohm. So far ive been browsing through powerbass, lanzar opti, audiopipe, american bass and hifonics. Currently, i have my stock altenator and a little shuriken battery in the back. My alternator is 80amps so i know that im really not getting 1600watts and i will definitely not get 3000 to 4000 watts if i keep it. So i would like to know the following things: 1) which amp should i go with that is reasonably priced, and will put out close to or spot on the true rms rating 2) What amperage should my alternator be in order to power 3000 to 4000 watts? 3) Should i replace my shuriken battery and get a larger one if i replace my alternator? 4) Will i need more than one battery in the trunk? 5) Do i have to replace the 4 guage wiring? Thanks for any advice! [/QUOTE]
