[QUOTE="atlninja82, post: 5271946, member: 576514"] i have a red top under the hood and a kinetic hc2400 in the back. I did the big 3 with 1/0 knuknonceptz wiring and i am running all 1/0 wire. i have a sundown saz 1500 running at 2 ohms(800 watts). when i turn my lights off and im idling i get pretty bad voltage drop. it drops below 12 volts. i know that if i rev my engine to higher rpms it wont do that but dont you think my electrical should be sufficient enough for only 800 watts?!??! even with my lights on. but im about to be running my amp at 1 ohm and i want to make sure i wont have horrible voltage drop. i just dont get how with my car im getting voltage drop with 800 watts but then i just installed a 1200 watt audioque amp to an hdc3 15 at one ohm and he gets hardly any voltage drop at all. no big 3 and stock battery. something is wrong here. somebody please help. thanks, -eric [/QUOTE]
