fracl Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 hi guys, ok here;s what im gonna do in the near future. I have a Red top optima at the front of my 2008 Kia Rio. big 3 is done and i have a 0 gauge wire running to the back, its fused at the front. at the back the 0 gauge goes into a spliter, and two 0 gauge wire from there to my two amps, i Crescendo Symphony S1500.1 fedding my two Sundown audio SA12's in a poted box, and one Precision Power PPI P900.4, im using a reducer to fit the 0 gauge for this one. i have 2 channel feeding a passive crossover i got made from solen, the tweeter is an lpg 26 something mounted low in my custom kick panel also i have 2 vifa pl11 in those kicks, the other 2 channels feed 2 8" Dayton rs225-4 in my doors that are over sound proofed with brown bread. its like dynamat in case you're not familier.. i pick this cayse it sticks so well. .. and my deck is a kenwood and i use.WAV files 99% of the time. .. when i bought the crescondo i called em and the guy told my to make sure it had its own battery if i wanted to best of it. so anyways... sorry for the long post but now you know the ins and outs. my question is: Im gonna get an oprima yellow top for the back soon. where can i find Battery Terminal that are gonna accept the 0 gauge coming from the front, and two 0 gauge strait from the Battery Terminal to the amps? thanks for reading this and i posted this here as i felt its the best place to get answers from ppl rhat have dome this before. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIDE SHOW Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 whats the question again? if you have a chance i'd suggest getting the same battery for the rear as the front assuming it's a dry cell batt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIDE SHOW Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 look into the batterys a bit more, some of them have duel terminals like threaded bolts and use them instead, just get some big 0 gauge lugs for your wire. as for your front battery there are a few brands that make some big terminals that fits 0 gauge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closes big city Toronto about 600 miles. the price of shipping is crazy. The reason i want to stick with optima is cause they sell em locally at Canadian tire. the yellow to are 240 ish so i can deal with that. hope you understand.. its not my first choice but i can afford it. all i need is a way to connect my 0 gauge in and two out. I was hoping you guys had seen or used em before, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audiofanaticz Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 If your getting another battery with SAE style posts that stick up that the terminal goes around, you can go with these. http://skyhighcaraudio.net/details#cid=1082550 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fracl Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 oh and one more thing, SIDE SHOW recommended that i use the same battery i have under the hood. Optima Red Top/ will it be an issue going with a yellow and the back? i dont think the red top in a good choice to stereo. its good to start the car. Could you explain why its not good please. and should i get another red top? or yellow like i thought? if there is a good reason ill go red ? i cant afford to get 2 yellow, plus with our winters a red top is the way to go.

SIDE SHOW Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 just warrenty issues with wiring different batterys together, speak to your optima dealer and see what they say, if they say it's fine to run the two together, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
