Don't feel bad man. Just make sure you read the rules for which ever org you want to compete in and make sure your system falls into their rules.
Last year I only only had a crunch p1500.1 powering my lvl5 and still finished no lower than 2nd in meca as3 class at the shows I competed in.
Make sure you KNOW your system and you should be alright.
its says on the paper you get with it for "deep cycle, gel-cell, and agm and compatible with most lead-acid batteries". hope that helps, but i have only used mine on my xs. works awesome on them...lol
Why? stetsom's do every ouce of power...
for $650 i can get the Stetsom 3K7E. its R$1050 bal which is $650 plus shipping
WRMS Power (2 ohms) to 13.8 V: 4500 Watts RMS
WRMS power (4 ohms) to 13.8 V: 2650 Watts RMS
WRMS Power (2 ohms) to 12.6 V: 3750 Watts RMS
WRMS power (4 ohms) to 12.6 V: 2300 Watts RMS
i was gonna get a vcm and set it to 14.7-14.9 so im sure i'll see close to 5000rms out of it
hell i found aq3500's as low as $550 shipped... so why be skeptical at all. i know stetsom's and soundigital's do the power as long as they have the power to back it up. xs emailed me and told me 2 d3100 will support upto 8000watts and running 2 d3400's upfront i'll have more than enough power.
i actually considered the current AQ3500 as well knowing it does 4300-4500rms and will take higher voltage unlike the stetsom...
if you get the vcm, just make sure the amp dont see 15+ on the Stetsom
Are they oem or aftermarket? The company I work for owns another company called Transwheel that does OEM for sure...not sure on aftermarket. There located in Indy
