dc 7.5 clamped
AMI CUSTOMS replied to stompum2deth's topic in DC Sound Lab - Big Bass on ANOTHER LEVEL!
And just to add, there is a big jump in power going from 1 ohm down to .35 or lower. I gained exactly 3 db on my last wall going from 1 ohm down to .25 ohm on burp. Also doubled my power output clamped style, went from 5500 watts to 11k on two 3500D.1 AQ amps. And I have seen similiar gains from DC amps doing the same thing. -

LMAO, I WISH F#$K!!!!!! I am stuck at work with no one to cover so I couldn't make it super sad face...... -

I didn't read all the comments but to the OP At .35 nominal you can see normally 3x the rise for actual impedance to the amp, so you would be close to 1 ohm, now since you are wired so low, your damping factor is greatly reduced meaning your efficiency just went to shit lol. So after you consider efficiency which would be in the 70% range would be my guess. You should see close to rated, I would guess 7.5kW at 12 volts at .35 nominial ohm load. Just my 2 cents and this electrical engineer doesn't have any idea wtf he is talking about LBOX88 you know better then to drop the magic smoke lol -
SRS light and Low Voltage
AMI CUSTOMS replied to rocking.that.eclipse's topic in MechMan Alternators and 12v Accessories
Generally it is the regulator when you have varying voltage like that with rev. Sounds to me like the mechanic possibly tried to rewire to get it to drop the alt code, which he should have left alone because that is normal to get an alt code logged when installing a VCM. It is a body code, which means it doesn't do shit, so doesn't affect anything. Most likely when rewiring the VCM he smoked the reg which isn't hard to do if you are ate up with the dumbass -
Oh and port area is all fukkked up in that one too lol

way to small, that box is about right for 2 15s, not 4.

The motor would start to diesel and the lights would start to pulse at idle. Basically indicating a bad or weak connection, it was the wire gauge. -

You can get by with 10 gauge wire from local auto parts store if you keep it short like less then 3 feet. I just know alot of people use 8 gauge and I tried 12 gauge with mine and it didn't like that, but mine are also 6+ ft way too, so 8 gauge was a must plus I had a full 250' spool for my build. -

AMI CUSTOMS replied to shepherd92683's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
Yes 1 ohm strapped is fine with proper electrical I listed above. I have strapped my 3500d.1s at .5 ohm (.25 ohm each) for burps no problem. -
That is what he is referring to exactly, wrong tuning and wrong volume, wrong port area, making for a bad design.
