[QUOTE="GFunkyGamerGeek, post: 8838464, member: 688713"] ... would i need to power a 2000 watt amp via AC power, for regular use, not for testing. I bought a pair of skar 12" svr dual 4 ohm 800/1600 rms/peak subs, a skar 2000.1 d amplifier, an AC LC6i LOC, and an extra battery, on the recommenation of a friend. The installer told me id have to get an upgraded high output alternator to run the setup in a 2008 audi rs4 with a 190 amp alternator. I decided against doing that, for a variety of reasons, and have decided to, instead, turn it into a mobile stereo on wheels (think luggage cart) for dragging around my house and to my shop area. To do so, i need a head unit, which ill figure out later, probably a pawn shop special somewhere, a powersupply, some tweets and mids, a smaller amp for those, and a box to put it all in. Alternately, i have heard it is possible to use a home reciever as my head unit but didnt get any confirmation from anywhere but that one person. Is this possible? If so are there any guides for something like that? Ive got an Onkyo TX-RZ810 id like to use if possible. Ive also got a Sony MHC-71 i currently use, but the bass is... not satisfactory. If that could be wired up somehow that would actually be ideal. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
