Even though they will be in the box, the Classics look better.

I might note then if you are adding a new alternator, you might want to connect before the amplifier two capacitors in series. Electrolytic. The caps blocks off any DC offset or component and passes only AC components with the signals. This so that your amps don’t go into shut down mode. It’s an electronic concept that you or some haven’t come across yet. Called the coupling capacitor​

I was thinking about adding second battery or put a nice one in place of the regular one in there now..would the help with what your say?

Don't listen to Mitchell...it's a surefire way to making s'mores over the remains of your car

I'd start with the biggest agm you can fit under in battery compartment. With 2k you really shouldn't need a second battery with a 250a alt.

That’s what I was thinking..so any agm, doesn’t have to be XS power ones?

I like the Duracell ones Sam's club sells because of the price but there's no need for xs $$$ with a 2k amp in all honesty. Depending on the vehicle 2k is right about the line whether to upgrade the electrical.

And unless you're playing test tones...you'll rarely see that 2000 watts. With music you might see it for a split second. You'd honestly be amazed how little of the available power actually gets used in a daily

It’s in a suburban..I’ll probably upgrade the amp later just running the rp2000 now on skar sdr 10s..it was an old system I had laying around but Im up grading ..I’m excited about the Sa v2..never had a nice set of subs but I know electrical is key

I just want to feel my bass and hopefully hit some lows With out breaking the bank and truck plus be reliable..already spent

i just want to feel my bass and hopefully hit some lows and be able to bump it for long periods at a time..do you know anything about the D4S prefab v2 curd port boxes? That’s what I got today for the Sa v2 a

Damn I didn’t know I already texted that lol

I don't mean ti be a sour puss, but dump that amp ASAP. I know it's hard to hear, but sell it and get some real power. I've heard plenty of RP's. I've been in the game since 1987. Two SA 12's is a great choice. I love your electrical detup. Skar rp amps are your downfall. Look at a Taramps Bass 3K or a Sundown SIA2500 to run those SA 12's.

that’s the next thing to get upgraded for sure..iv been looking at the Tara 3k just seem like people have mixed feelings as far as reliability Or long term reliability?..all so looking at d4s jp amps, how are those?

Is 3k the max I can do with my electrical setup? 250 alt, big 3 zero G.

I ordered the sia 2500 today..

Its more about install and enclosure at the 2-3K level. Sounds like you have the gear, wire may be a bit lacking but hey... go for it. Wire is cheep and for Sa's anything tuned 32-35hz in 4 ft3 net with sufficient port ought to satisfy. I would have chosen Sa Classics and went with something in the 2-3k range even at 1 ohm. I normally wire lower so .5 is what my amp sees nominally because I live a little dangerously. Screw those Rp amps... I'd grab a Skv minimum and probably a 2500 for a pair of classics. Then address your "0 guage" and "big 3"... electrical never ends... lol. I supported a 4K amp with a 250A alt and a severe case of excessive interconnect. I actually could clamp 4200+ with a 4K amp in the 3K class. Tuning with cabin in mind and impedances let me dial it into an automatic 152+. Clamping right at 3K actually was more output than the 4K+ numbers. 150lb of deadener, trial and error in positioning and staging with a few custom additions worked out.
Its a steep learning curve.
