Is there no sound or is it just me? Interesting concept though!

So I'm assuming 1900w rms system? First of all, you won't need a battery isolater. You can either check the fitment guide on XS Power or just measure your current underhood battery and get a battery with the same, or smaller dimensions. Keep in mind, you cannot use an XP model battery for underhood purposes. You will need a D or S model. The D and S is the same thing, with a different label.

iirc jacob said they aren't an upgrade from the v3 as far as numbers goes I was mainly referring to the additional xmax, that will help for music purposes. Obviously a lower FS won't help for high frequency burps. However, he can build recones that can be geared toward that. It's just an overall better design, period.

Nice, that make soldering leads on recones easy as hell. Nothing like trying to squeeze your hands into a Ti basket lol.

If you can power a v3, you can power a v4. 1.25" difference isn't too bad. You can't clear that extra depth?

I'm pretty sure the basket makes it an inch or less deeper. Don't quote me though. I'm sure Jacob will get back to you on Caco.

I would say very similar to the v3, I doubt you would need to modify your box.

I would personally get the zv4 if time isn't an issue. They're def an upgrade to the v3.

Damn those FS are low!

That's my thought as well.

Quick question though, lets say you have 1 battery you want to fully charge as fast as possible. You put it on 25a, but it is only charging it at 10a. Would it charge any quicker than just dropping it down to 15a?

Yes sir.^^ I'd compare the 9k to my Crossfire 8k. You could get away with 3 3100s and a nice underhood batt such as a 3400 and obviously a HO alt. Anything above that can only help. Good luck.

Does it really matter? Whenever I put a single batt on it never charges at 15a anyways. It's usually less than 10a. The intellicharger lowers the amperage depending on how much of a charge the battery needs. You'll notice when you turn it on.

Idk how you made it this long bro. I'm a real chill person 99.9% of the time too, but if I read half the shit people say online about me I'd get pretty pissed too. Some people just can't fathom the work and dedication it takes to do what we do. Most people don't have a single thing in their possession that they can say they built from the ground up. Keep your head up!

I have a pretty good feeling he got away.

X2 How do you think the 1200 will handle .5? I understand it voids warranty.

If touching the probes in the most dangerous way possible on the amp cannot blow it. Then I would have to agree. I stated in the thread on Caco: In reality I would put just about anything on the fact there is an error somewhere else in the equation. Whether it be a bad signal from Rcas/HU, bad ground, or just plain old not enough electrical.

I believe his final conclusions were that it was probably the improper use of the dd-1 that caused the amp to fail. Also, he wasn't saying he would not warranty an amp if the dd-1 was used on it. He just said if the amp blew from user errors via the dd-1 or anything, it is not warrantable.

No need for an isolater, they will be just fine. However down the line it may be a good idea to match batteries as different AGM batts have different resting voltages.

who said that? XS power, hence the model number. The 3100 is 5k. Obviously those are not real world numbers.

Agreed!

Hell yea it was fast! I believe this is just an underrated 340 lol. I'm sure their 370s are more like 400a's Thanks guys, like others said this months was more luck than anything. Steve gives everyone a great opportunity to win, small or big. Also Derek any alt that's externally regulated can use this.

No problem man, it was the least I could do! Thanks again Mechman, I appreciate it

Thanks man I appreciate it

Christmas all over again! Thanks to SMD's System of the Month and Matt @ Mechman I received some awesome products Mechman comes through once again, within a week their products are built, tested and at my front door! What could this be!? Talk about secure packaging! Hmmm blue?? Woah that's what I'm talkin about! Big alternator?? Yea nothing like a 340a alt clamping a killer 369 amps! Wow What a beauty! Blue box aka external regulator! Beast combo! So stoked to add this to my other great Mechman alts! Thanks again Steve and everyone over at Mechman
