What's needed for Orion 2500D ...............

[BassBooster 10+ year member]

I jus bought a orion 2500d.....as of right now I'm only gonna use it for 4ohm load (1200watts rms) but I plan to very soon add a third sub and them at 2.67 ohms (1700+ watts rms) I hear this amp is underrated so I'm not sure but my electrical right now is jus a factory alt that is 105 amps and the big three done in 2 guag wire. Before this I had a audiopipe 1500d and had dimming pretty good with some voltage drops while I drove. What upgrades do I need to prevent this from happening again?

a back battery or 2.

another battery in back more if you plan to run it lower than 2 ohms...or if you want you could sell it to me!

2 trunk batteries & you'd see very little drop.

I've got a Kinetik 1400, you could find another & run them..

It is but as of right now I won't need that power ......I hear it's almost 3000 rms at one ohm hmmmm any gonna suggest two batts

If you have a deep cycle up front, which should be your first electrical upgrade after the Big 3, then just one G31 out back should be sufficient if your alt. is functioning correctly and you run two runs of 0/1 awg to the back batt, in my experience.

Ok I jus read up on adding a extra and from what I get of only helps wen if the car is off I need it most when I'm driving and help with dimming when I'm driving

One of my friends runs 2 of those amps and IIRC he either runs a kinetik hc2000 or hc2400 to each

So that stops dimming and voltage drops?

Yes, worse case scenario you have to purchase a HO alt.
