help ????????

No, the Kinetik line is very simple. The model number is equal to the watts RMS they can handle. The HC800 can only power 800W RMS. You have twice that in just your sub amp. If you have any front stage amps, you need to add those too. So you need at least an HC1800 for the rear, not including a front stage amp.

no, and the HC800 will be good for about 1200rms...

ok so if i added an hc 1400 in the trunk will that be enough along with the alt and the yellow top

 

[loopkiller 10+ year member]

no, and the HC800 will be good for about 1200rms...

Uhhh no, it is rated for 800WRMS per Kinetik. If they rated it for 1200WRMS, it would be called an HC1200. They have an HC1200 and it is a little bigger than the HC800.

You probably think that the Boss amps are underrated too huh? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

The Yellow all the way in the front is going to give you minimal help that far away. It is possible that it would work out fine, but for the $30 difference in price between an HC1400 and an HC1800, why not go the safe route? Do you have a space issue or something?

 

[margahman 10+ year member]

or should i just add one more yellow top in the trunk

If you already have the Kinetik 800 just try it and see.

not really so then i should be fine with an hc 1800 in the trunk

Why would you do that? Maybe you just don't like my advice, but I thought I was pretty clear.

I agree with this, but I think you will find that it will not be enough. If you already have one HC800, add another one in the rear for a total of 3 batts (one yellow under hood, and two HC800 in the rear).

Is this the only amp you'll be running? If so, the 1800 is more than enough.

put it in a setup with 1200rms and I bet money it will work sufficiently //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
