ZX1500.1 Below 2 ohms? or SAZ-1500D Above 1 ohm?

less draw from electrical system? Any ideas?

i'm almost positive, although not 100% sure, that you would see around 2 ohms after all impedance rise, wiring at 1.33.

but i am also in favor for .67 on the sundown.

that's not enough power for SSD's...IF you're wanting to get the most out of them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Also, upgrade your big 3 with 0 gauge. You'd be surprised how much it helps with dimming issues.

Its enough power. I have heard from many other people who have run them and found great output on ~500rms.

Read the bold. Sure, they may get "loud" off of just 500 watts, but I guarantee you they're not performing at their potential.

lol i obviously knew that, but i bet they will get louder than the bm's.

sounds like you know more than us already,why even ask.

It's all in the install.

Do the Big 3 for sure, its pretty cheap. You'll need 6' to 10' of 1/0 depending on your engine bay.

my thought on that question is that anything around 1000-1200 true watts is going to pull a decent amount of power. your stock electrical was designed for stock use and not much more. you will be pulling a lot more current than it is designed to do obviously. thats gonna kinda be hard to do unless you had a ~500w rms amp that your car can handle, but thats not enough power. kind of a lose lose situation

I figured the zx1500.1 @ ~2ohms or 1.33 would cause less current draw than the sundown at .67, i guess that was my question not about my previous setups.
