Do you guys think I should go ahead and get a bigger alternator. If so what size. I've heard its 70 amps per 1000 watts. So like a 220bigger should do right??
If you get a good alternator from a quality alternator company then a 270amp or 300amp alt will do, with a few batts.(2-3)

you can never have too much power.
if it were me, I'd be running it at half ohm daily.
we're not all stupid..
To the OP, 2000w each is too much.
You only have to look at RMS from woofers, never at peak ratings, those are useless.
600 each will be much better and 600 each is perfect, they don't need more.

to answer first post.
He set the knob like that because they didnt touch the gain.
The bass knob doesnt distort a amp, it just regulates how much input voltage goes into the amp.

in the vote dc will probably win, even without knowing which sub...
Because we have more dc fanboys now.

That is some serious excursion.

I would use 16 awg wire.
NO!
use a 14 or 12AWG wire...it takes more power..than teh 16awg, and you have less chance to burn your speakers
lol wut?
You would have less chance of burning up your speakers when using 16 guage then 12 guage because resistance is higher thus less power to speakers.
We do'nt even know if he uses a amp or not.
If he does 12-14guage(12 because it's not really more expensive).
But 16 guage will do if it's HU power.

I don't see how it is tacky looking.
I think alpine looks 'tacky', pioneer looks more clean in general.
-
Did they only package it with cardboard and paper? :facepalm:
-
Last picture looks best imo.
But why not follow your own opinion?
You are the one that has to look at it every day over and over again.

I would invest in a good alternator of atleast 300-350amps.(bigger=better)
i think those amps didn't like voltage below 11.5-12v or above 16.
SO if you don't have a voltmeter yet in your car, get one for 20-25 dollar.
I have a DMM. I know it wasn't smart but I hooked it up the over the weekend and played with it for an hour or so. Using 4 gauge power cable from my old RF Amp kit, the Kinetik HC2000 and a Duralast 1000 CA battery I borrowed. The Maxximus has 4 hots and 4 grounds I kept each connection no longer than 8 inches in length directly to the battery. No alternator just those 2 batteries in the trunk played the whole time without dropping below 12.2v
It still better to have a voltage meter in the car, those 20-25 dollars will save your amp.

A dead battery can have a good floating voltage= just the voltage without load.
If you add a load like a 500w amp it will drop in the 11 and 10v very fast.
-
That one is better but you could buy 2 of the 50 amp ones for less then that
And you just spread the load equally so both power supplies have to deliver about the same power.
-
Just grab her.(from the back is a option...)
-
I said 50 amps is not enough, so 10 amps will be worse.
But that 50 amp power supply should work. It's not like you are gonna pull all the current that the amps are rated for.

Nobody needs to get a realignment after stereo.
You do need a realignment after throwing different rims on it.(tire balancing too)
:orly:
500+ lbs of stereo equipment might effect your cars weight and tire balance.
it affects your tire balance? lolz, that was the funniest thing i have ever read.
And if it was aligned PROPERLY before the install it is not necessary to realign.(except when you exceed the max weight the car can support, but then it's stupid to drive on the same suspension which is not rated for that much weight.)
EDIT: blackedout, then your alignment wasn't perfect. OR if it's a old car sometimes they mess up the alignment with added weight. Modern cars or atleast good(wellbuilt) cars don't have the need to realign after adding a stereo)

Here you go, this is what i meant. http://www.stetsom.com.br/eng/DetalhesProduto.aspx?c=7958&cat=794
50 amps will not be enough to power it all.
-
ground doesn't looks good.
Is it sanded underneath that terminal?
-
So that's 1500w?
Well you could buy the power supply stetsom or soundigital has. I think it's soundigital but not 100% sure.

this video basically shows that Home Depot roofing materials help little bit, but not what many people expect.
You could probably get a better result when you glue or ducttape cardboard to the trunk...
-
Could you say the dimensions? Because it wouldn't be the first time someone messed up..
18 cubes is huge, but 2 18 is my choice out of those 2, best choice is 2 15's IMHO.
-
Good video, this really shows that it doesn't work as a deadener.
Even with 2 to 3-4 layers you didn't get decent deadening.
And like kandiman said, HD doesn't sell deadener, only people who don't know whar or how a deadener work say that roofing products are deadeners.
You would get better 'deadener' by just using spray foam in the trunk, but thats just me

Check out everything tha is related to the steering, i don't know how it's called but some bushes maybe worn out at the part that connect the steering+suspension.

DRauk..
Thats not what on and off axis means, please if you dont fully understand what you are talking about then dont try to explain it.
To the op.
On axis means that the middle of the cone is pointing at your head, off axis means everywhere else.
