  1. Personnally I wouldn't have gotten the cap ............ i'm sure it'll help some but i'd of did a battery or two in the back vs the cap. I'm sure that alternator should hold everything to a good charge though.

    I have not purchased the cap yet(or much else on the list yet for that matter). It's all going in an ex cab ranger so space is limited. Thats why I was thinking a cap. How about an HC800?

  2. Well, I'll be doing my first decent build and wanted some input to see if I am headed in the right direction as far as electrical upgrades is concerned. I'll have about 3000 watts rms. Here is a list of my plans. It's gonna be for daily, no comps. Any input is appreciated.

    Optima Yellow Top up front (already have)

    Big 3 in 1/0 (on the way)

    1 run of 1/0 for power and ground

    RF 10 farad hybrid cap-Decided against the cap. Any suggestions on batteries? Would one XS d925 be enough?

    DC Power 250 amp alt

  3. Loud clarity. My polks are pretty good. They are way better that the Alpine type-s I had before, those were pretty harsh. I currently have 4 5x7 2-way is how they come. I still have a set of same model 6x9 3-way and 6-1/2 components and the 6x9 and comp setup was better than my new 5x7 but that is all that will fit in my truck without mods. Someday I'll have a T8004 and hook them all up at once :D I have never heard 5-way so I cant judge there but I heard some kenwood excelon 4-way and wasnt impressed. I think any speaker can get "screaming" if not setup right or driven too hard.

  4. It depends on the actual output of your amp. Does Alpine include a birthsheet sheet with the amp? My Rockford is rated at 500rms at 2 ohm, but my birthsheet says 614rms at 2 ohm. I would rather over power my sub a tad instead of under power, but that is just my opinion. I am not bashing Fi but may I ask why you keep picking them with your amp?

    As for the mids/highs. Is there a certain brand or price range on a 4ch amp?
