  1. http://www.onlinecar...rice_Comparison

    Was going to go with this. Any objections/better choices in the price range?

    If you can fit the dual 12" version it's the same price at sonic, if not the the dual 10" is very good and takes up less space,

    Just what ever you pick don't get something in a prefab unless it's a mainfactorys prefab box

    My amp is only 4 OHM stable when bridged and Sonic only has the 2 OHM final impedence prefabs, that I saw. Don't want to buy a prefab just to hack it open and rewire it.

    Can I run two channels to the individual inputs on the sub? IE, two positve and negative going to each terminal?

    Yes you can do that. But even so, if those woofers are 2 ohm final impedance, there's no way to get them to 4 ohms final, or even two separate 2 ohm loads (minimum impedance on each channel when not bridged).

    Are you set on running a prefab...?

  2. How long of a run is it from your batts to amps? If it's short enough, you'll probably be able to do one positive and one negative run of CCA to each amp just fine. Otherwise, just go with the OFC... You could do 2 runs of CCA, but then you'd need dual inputs.

    I will 2 + and - into each amp plus 4 + runs and 3-s..… and way about candece

    Why would you do more positive runs than negative?

    I've heard mixed reviews about cadence. I use their 4 gauge CCA, but only because I know my amp draws mush less than the wire can handle, and I would suggest the same.

  3. I think it might be going into protect due to the low impedance. Can you bridge two channels of the amp and increase the ohm load?

    Well that's what I've been doing so far. 2 channels on the sub, two on the door speakers.

    From what I've read, this amp is 4ohm stable bridged..

    I'm just so lazy that I don't want to take the subwoofer out unless I know for a fact that it will increase the output/ safety because I've got the shok 2.5k coming in on the 2nd.

    Wait you're running .7 ohms bridged, or one coil per channel?

    If you're doing .7 ohms bridged... that's less than a fifth of its minimum impedance, yikes. One coil per channel might be okay but I wouldn't risk it.

    I'd personally just take that bitch out and wire it in series on ONE channel. Should hold you over until you get the amp, and you don't have to worry about your equipment.

  4. Here's what you need to do

    1. Make sure you have your head unit set so that the RCAs are putting out a full range signal.

    2. Check your current amp to see if it has RCA outputs. It should just be a second set of RCA jacks just like the inputs, only it's labeled "output."

    3. If the amp you have now doesn't have an output, see if the mids and highs amp you're looking for has one.

    4. If either amp has outputs, use that. Just run the RCAs from your head unit to input on one amp, then from the output on that amp to the other amp's input. This is the easiest and most cost-effective way.

    5. If none of the above apply, do what they said. Get some y-splitters. You have google and [hopefully] some common knowledge. You should be able to figure out if you need male/female from there.

    6. If you DO get y-splitters, remember that one splitter is left and one is right. So, one splitter should be connected to right channel on one amp AND right channel on the other amp. Same with left. Also take into consideration, splitters are generally less than a foot long.

  5. I do agree with you guys that those two were a couple of pussies for going 2 on 1. But that's the risk you take when you get into a fight... especially when the dude has two friends right behind him. And I'm definitely not gonna risk my safety and freedom for some idiot who got into a fight because of road rage.

  6. They were engaged in mutual combat. If the guy by himself didn't want to fight 3 guys he could have got into his car or otherwise de-escalated the situation.

    There is no way I'm stepping into a fight between two foolish parties.

    Would have to agree on this one. If the dude just got jumped out of nowhere, that's a different story. But the guy in the red did "agree" to fight. Just as stupid and immature as the other two if you ask me.

  7. I plan on also going with four sets of fosgate t3 components, four fosgate power 600-4's, two 360.3 processors, a pioneer 7inch flip out, 3 xs 3100's, all knu concepts,monster cable, and streetwires power cables, speaker cable, and rca's.

    And it WILL fit. :)

    Honestly think you should just slow down man. Quality over quantity. Four component sets seems like a bit much for such a small cabin space. You're not running an insane amount of subs or power, so it's not like you need something to keep up with the bass. And four 4-channels? Why do you need 16 channels of amplification? And what could two 360.3's accomplish that can't be done with one?

    Also, just do a blow-through. :twirl:
