Anyone have any experience running a sundown saz-1500 at 1 ohm daily on stock electrical? I was thinking possibly a yellow top up front and the big 3 at some point. Was just wondering if stock electrical could handle this amp and have had any experience with it. If its any help I have a 1998 dodge dakota sport with a brand new stock alternator since mine just **** the bed.

Thanks in advance

 
Do not run this amp on stock electrical. I have run an SAZ1500 in my truck with an oversize alternator, a kinetik battery, and the big 3 done. I still got voltage drops when I beat it hard. An SAZ1500 is going to put out between 1500 and 1900 watts rms, and it needs power to feed it. Running any amp without sufficient power is going to give you issues, and will potentially damage the amp. Yellow top is great, but then your stock electrical has another battery to keep charged. Not a good solution. It is a downward spiral bro. The heavier the draw and the lower the voltage drops, the more power the amp needs to remain stable. Don't cook a high quality amp by underpowering it. You can run it, but need to be careful with your settings, and keep it away from heavy voltage drops.

 
Okay. Well if my electrical isn't going to be able to handle it. Maybe I could run either a yellowtop or xs battery up front with the big three and run a sing sub at 2 ohms for now until I have the money to either get a H/O alt or a second battery for behind my seat? I was thinking maybe a dc lvl 3 10?
