[QUOTE="AQHDC3, post: 7154256, member: 606046"] 1. Ditch cap. 2. Get your electrical up to par for your current setup before attempting to add any more amps (HO Alt, batts & Big 3). 3. Once your electrical is up to par for your current setup start thinking about possibly another amp and another batt. 4. More subs doesn't always equal better. Make sure you have the proper air space for the subs. 5. Upgrading electrical is not cheap. Prepare to spend a good chunk of change. 6. Don't pay attention to "Max Watts". The RMS rating is what you want to pay attention to. If you are significantly exceeding the RMS rating of your woofers you will have to be very careful. I would not run any more than 800-1000 rms per Type R, unless you really know what your doing. 7. Set amp/amps properly with a DMM. If you are unsure how to achieve this, do some reading or find someone that knows how to set gains. 8. If you do end up running multiple amps, you will want them to be strappable or you will want to gain match them. Hope this is useful information. I am giving you honest answers and hope you take them into consideration. [/QUOTE]
