  2. Switching out Amps

    in Amplifiers

    Posted

    I'm not looking for that much power. I'm looking for around 1.5k..I just want enough for people to hear..not enough to shatter my glass. I already blew out my trunk lock with the HFI amp. Had to fix and reinforce the lock.

    I don't really have a budget, going to be selling my Hifonic amplifier to my friend for $225...so...anything between $200-$300.

    hifonics brutus 2400.1D $299 at sonicelectronix.com

    Hifonics doesn't put out the recommended clean RMS that I'm looking for. I was looking at DC amplifiers. Seeing if they can do the trick. Opinions?

    HFI suck but brutus series is way better ask anyone

  6. How to tell how much electrical I need?

    You'll have to do a little research yourself, but I'll try to give you the basics. You want to start out by finding out how many amperes your amps are gunna pull. The manufacturer will usually tell you what it uses at RMS, if they don't you can go by fuses. Add the fuses up and you get an idea of what it will pull. Once you get that number, you can put together a little shopping list for electrical. For six thousand watts you're probably going to be pulling around 350-400 amperes maybe even more. So you're definitely going to have to get a HO alternator or two. You want to find an alternator that will be able to supply both the amps and the car accessories without being taxed. If you can't get a dual alt setup or don't want to do a dual alt setup, which a six thousand watt system will probably require.. you can add a bunch of extra batteries to help that one HO alt. The extra batteries will give the amps what they need and at lower power times the alt will have a little time to recharge the batteries slowly. But if you are taxing the alt by enough, the batteries will only hold the system for a little bit.. and eventually you're going to run out of power. So the alternator setup is the heart of every system, the alternator is the only thing actually "making power" in the whole electrical system. You can add all the batteries you want, but without a big enough alternator you will never be able to play that system for long before the voltage drops and needs to recharge.

    not thread stealing but can a mechman 320 ALT get the job done ? ill be running 5k to 9k rms with 3 batteries ???
