[QUOTE="fatboytyler, post: 8319075, member: 658624"] Title says it all. I have been doing my own research and always come back with mixed results. I've got some guys pretty local to me that are running HD8000s on less electrical than what I'm going to have and never dropping below 13.6-13.8 on music. For example, he was running a HD8000 with some ****** 200A alternator and 2 Deka G31s in the back with 2 runs of CCA 0 Gauge. Was getting **** near the full rated wattage and like I said had very little voltage drop. I'veheard of several people switching over to Taramps from their other reputable brands putting out similar power and gaining a fair piece on the meter. My alternator (which I have but will be installed next week) outputs 285A hot (160-190 idle) and will eventually have 2 XS 3100 in the back and a XS 2700 under the hood. I am going to run either 2 runs of OFC or 3 runs of CCA to my back batteries, haven't made up my mind yet. I can get a killer deal on a new HD8000, so if they truly are a nice little amp I wouldn't mind pulling the trigger once I get the electrical.
