03silvergt Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 You should be fine. I would get a volt meter and wire it to the amp and just watch your voltage. 2017 Chevrolet Silverado LT CC - Will be running 2-3 DC Audion M3 8s, unsure of amp, Mechman 320 amp alt. 2005 Ford F150 - Bagged on 24s, fully shaved, raised bed floor.

rockFord_Expedition Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 2k /.7 = approx 2900 2900w/14v = about 200 200*.5 (duty cycle estimate for music) = 100 Your system will underperform if you don't beef up your electrical. You can damage more than your amp. And its ok to ask, but since you have to then you probably shouldn't do it.

rockFord_Expedition Posted August 26, 2015 Report Share Posted August 26, 2015 Depending on the vehicle, and what other aftermarket electrical you have, you should be fine. Most likely that will suffice. Hairpin is the way to go. Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
