ilovetoinstall Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) Has anyone tried it? Any bad results? I'm going to be running 4 AB VFL15's 20cu. ft. @ 32 hz and am currently cunning the 12.0 @ 1 ohm on 2 of the subs nearly no voltage drop 13.8 full tilt sitting still. Problem is my subwoofer recones from AB are only available in dual 1 ohm config. so I'm hoping I can get away with .5 daily with a bit more storage and this 270 amp alt I've been looking into any advice or input would be great thanks again Edited April 21, 2015 by ilovetoinstall Quote Greg, Triple C Auto Niagara Falls NY Under construction2002 Chevy Suburban pioneer 8000NEX 3 Sets of ARC Audio 6000 components in custom front doors 2 Powerbass midrange in center council 4 Super tweets 2 Focal 900.6 6 channels 4 American Bass VFL Comp 15's (currently running 2) DC 12.0k DC Power dual alt bracket 2 XS Power D3400's under the hood 3 C&D technologies 110ah in rear along with multiple runs of 0 AWG OFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
