Battery's aren't really rated by amps enless your talking about cca, its the voltage, alot of people like kinetic battery's. go to kinetic.com and check it out. If you dont wanna put out that much money then i suggest optima red or yellow tops. Find out what best fits your needs.
how about this: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7324_Kinetik+HC+600.html

for what?
the batt that will go in my trunk... like how many amps
-
what battery should i use
-
its always best you do that, for future builds incase you want to go bigger... and that is how i have my batteries set up in my car *same way you drew it* it works fine imo... but i think your supposed to only have the ground and power wire for the amp be less than 18" away or so?
k. eventually i will do the big 3 i guess. The ground wire from the amp will be close.
-
would i need to do the big 3?
is this a good way to wire the battery?
-
would i need to do the big 3 with 2200 rms?
-
like that?
im ganna have about 2200 rms on it
-
You also need to ground that amp either to chassis or to the negative terminal on the battery in the trunk. You should also fuse the 1/0 wire that goes from hood to trunk. Put a fuse within 18 inches of the battery on each end of the cable. so one fuse under the hood and one under the trunk. That way if that cable gets pinched and you ground that baby out, it won't start your car on fire.
is this better?
-
so something like this?
id only need a fuse between the 2nd batt and the amp right? -
ok, so + on front batt to + on rear batt to amp
then - on rear batt to ground?
-
Do you already have the battery in your trunk?
ya
-
can i get a diagram to wire an amp to a battery in my trunk? Thanks.
-
is it worth spending an extra $80 and get a lvl4 xl? I think im for sure ganna get that aq 2200
-
thanks for all the help. Do i need a battery? or can i just get a capacitor? ive always wondered... if i was to get another battery, how would i wire it up?
-
Buy an AQ 2200D. It'll pair up good w/ the LV4XL. It's the same price as that JBL w/ twice the output.
just like that sundown, i cant find a place to buy it... wheres a good place?
-
You want the same size ground wire as the power wire. Don't forget about fuses.
You can get a new 1500D here: http://shop.tech12volts.com/product.sc?cat...amp;productId=2
You can get a refurb here: http://www.db-r.com/sell/store2/index.php?...products_id=204
Most people here & other places will tell you that they are overrated.
what about something like this: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12249_JBL+GTO14001.html
-
where can i get a Sundown SAZ-1500D? How many amps should i look for in a battery? and all id need to get is 0 guage power wire right? would i have to change the ground wire?
thanks.
-
Ok, so my car is a 2006 mercury mountaineer premier. Right now I have 1 12" 4 ohm type r with a m650 alpine amp. I have a factory touch screen nav and 4 guage wiring. My car also has factory upgraded speakers
Im looking to upgrade. i want to buy just 1 18" dc lvl 4 with lvl 5 coils and a http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_12211_...+BXi+1608D.html or something to power it (feel free to suggest other ideas on amps)
couple of questions : would i need a battery? Would i need to get 0 guage? What is the cubic feet needed for a box? Would a new head unit sound better?
thanks.
-
Would it be worth spending 500 and get the alpine pdx? Its 1000 watts at 4 ohms.
-
there are users on this forum with hifonics in their rides, they might tell you to go with your original choice
i only have 1 type r right now, would you suggest me get something else besides 2 alpines?
-
but the power series is, and that MB Quart amp is also
the subs are 4 ohms, so id have to wire them at 1 ohm or 4 ohm right?
-
400 dollars is your limit for an amp? let me look and see....
if i have to i can go a little more
-
double post on accident
-
Nevermind, looking up the subs that are dual voice coil, yea you can wire them @ 1 ohm. The subs are rated at 500 watts RMS, I dont have experience with Hifonics, so i dont know if its going to give the subs 1000 watts RMS or not.
what would you suggest i get
id only need a fuse between the 2nd batt and the amp right?
