DIDNT even know about this section. Well i am James i am currently 18 and unemployed. Just got me a decent jeep and about to put in my first REAL system ( at least i think) i found out about steve on youtube, and my love of cars just extended into car audio.
I have a buddy that did it with psu's but there wasnt enough power to power a 200 watt amp with 3 linked together. So he wound up using like 97SSBlazer said and hooked up a 12v batt to a charger and did it that route.
I am going to tell you know this site is a REALLY good place to start to learn about everything! There are a shit ton of people that will help you when and/or if you will need it. Also welcome to the site!
Well the last time that i drunk anything it was 1/5 of jager(my sister introduced me to the jager bomb that night) 2-40oz Smirnoff and 3 beers, I didnt pass out or puke but i wasnt going anywhere anytime fast lol
My buddy used 5 ply for his box with 2 15s it lasted about 31/2 months maybe a little longer. I have always used MDF which is $30 a sheet by me. But i am curious to how this comes out, let us know?
Voltage drops in my opinion are never a good thing. They can cause damage in the long run even if the amp is designed with voltage drop protection in mind. They will eventually fail at some point.
