I haven't decided on a new one yet. Haven't done anything for my build in a while. For desktop browsing, if you right click a photo then you can copy the URL and paste it here and should work fine. Not sure with mobile, haven't tried copying the URL of a pic yet. I usually just upload them to the forum if they're under .49MB
Ok that's kinda my struggle I'm trying to fix my build logs but individual photos are to big I'm trying Flickr now

I was gonna say if i (when i) do lith, it will be JY. Ive just read way to many very positive reviews from the product, to the people running the show (Trav and Yeuy). I also have heard some not so popular stuff regaurding the XS liths. And im a XS nut hugger. Through and through, but, ..... its just what ive seen and read, and talking to alt builders about lith, one was sorry to say, that the xs lith, wasnt up to par from what hes tried, and seen ran.
Ive never ran any lith, so, this is all my opinion from talks, reading, and such. Just tossing it out there.
Agreed everyone n my areab(Alabama) ditched their xs lithiums for limitless for a reason

A 15k won't be enough I ran 2 sundown 6ks with a 15k, 4 g31s,2 underhood batts and 4 Alts and barely stayed at 12 at full tilt at idle now driving was a different story
-
The spl xs batt isn't meant to be mixed with agms like the 15k and 30k

i know this is old as hell but I'd like to say now from testing that your problem is that you use agm and lihtium.
Pull the agms and try with just the lithium and I bet you your voltage will be better. My buddy is running the same amp setup as you with only 1 alt and just 1 lihtium and is seeing 12.8 full tilt at idle
So he's running a xs 15k on 2 sundown 6ks... I just found out my amps were at .25 each and not .5 my dmm was broke the day I bought my zv4s...since then I changed my amps to taramp 8ks and all my old agms to northstar and my voltage has gotten much better
-
I had got the zv5s they sound almost identical to zv4s and seem to be more efficient

I just killed an amp from vibration. I will be sending it off for repair.
Not to pick at a dead horses corpse. But i have a used scv6 and a new scv7500 if you not gonna repair you scv6k again.I actually just switched to zv5s and taramp 8ks and it seems just as loud if not louder

Well you could get it looked at or just let hammer till it dies
Total user error I bought some used zv4s 18 months ago and I coulda sworn they were d2s. But my dmm was broke that day and they were d1s. Long story short amp been repaired before due to vibration damage and not knowingly I ran it at .25 for a year before a few caps on the inside exploded. The bad news is it just went out of warranty and I won't repair it a third time but just keeping it real this is one of my top favorite amps I ever owned.
-
I'm almost positive they are the same sub nsv3 weighs 9 pounds more tho according to Amazon. I plan to upgrade my zv4s to zv5s due to price
-
Mine went up n smoke and protected today after playing on it a few years. Turned off truck turned it back on and amp unprotected and played at the same max volume I'm baffled right now
-
i agree it could be a number of things including the irraggi alt and my older kinetiks but it just blew me when xs told me the lithiums take over at11.8Do you know your Alts are making power? Play the system loud and clamp your your alts.
I have 4 3.5ks @.5 each running off a single mechman 220a. With some caps. Rarely drop below 12s. I shut it off and charge up of I see 11.x.
Something is up, the problem is not the lithium
-
I don't doubt that either I used to have 2 one of which I replaced the regulator and rectifer and it still caught on fire and the one that survived I still had to have regulator replacedi would try just disconnecting the iraggi to see what happens of course make sure it is done right so nothing arcs
-
truthJust the nature of the beast. No need to rag on lithiums because they make their power on the lower end of voltage that you want to use.

half ohm gain is set with dd1 it's barely upEach amp is at half gain? How strong is your head unit signal?

each amp is at half and I meant I was a guini pig by not sticking with agmAnd, what do you mean you where a guinea pig? You buy it 4 years ago or something ?
-
2 mechman 370What size alts? Maybe you could check them to see if you have one or more going out?
1 irragi 320
1 factory
I like the cap idea but due to this being my daily driver I doubt I can properly maintain them
-
that's my plan I'm getting each batt and alt individually tested.. I originally had 2 irragis n one caught fire I wouldn't be to surprised if the other one was on its way out also. I just had its regulator replaced. Ima also try stepping it up to 2 runs per altWith all that electrical how can your voltage still suck... Everything you listed is currently installed?! Rated RMS you are at 12k and you have 4 alts AND all those batteries and you see in the 11's?! Ok, so, please disconnect all batteries no matter how much of a pain it is and see if you have a dead battery...or 3
Maybe when you sell off, get rid of, trade, all those batteries you try out some ultracapacitors/super caps since you don't mind being a guinea pig (even though they are proven and have been out for a while now) and I would be willing to bet your voltage isn't so bad.
Lets start at the beginning....Do you use clean music? Are you clipping the shit out of something? (thus really stressing/draining the electrical)
When you see in the 11's are you playing idle or driving? full tilt and letting it dig and dig? then i could see you maybe seeing 11's if the alts aren't keeping up. Are the amps at 0.5 ohms or lower?
Don't give up on lithium yet
-
but to answer your question that setup was installed all at once so I can't do a before and afterBefore adding the lithium, how was your voltage?
Or did you just swap out the group 31s for the one lithium?
I just killed an amp from vibration. I will be sending it off for repair.
Zv.4 how much is too much power?
in Sundown Audio - GREAT Amps/Subs! GREAT Customer Service!

I ran 2 scv6k at .25 each on 4 zv4 for almost 2 year with no problem
