  4. Recommend electrical to run Skar 4500

    yeah i'd stick to the 1500's until you can upgrade electrical, my guess is you're looking at drop to 10-11v if you were to run the 4500 at 1 ohm on your current electrical, i'd look into a 250amp+ alt and 3 XP3000's if you can fit them. My friends mazda 626 with a Excessive amperage 225amp, batcap 4k, and kinetik hc2000 was dropping to high 12's revved up on an RD3250.1 at 1 ohm and we still never maxxed the gain to it's highest clean signal.

    I had 2 12s on a Powerbass xta 5k at .5 daily, now Im running them on a DD m3 at .5 daily

    i'd love to see clamp numbers, I highly doubt you're pushing more than 3k rms daily to a pair, DAILY as in you can play a whole song full tilt within tuning, then another song, without stopping to let the coils cool down. I had my pair on a 3.5k at .5, sending them the cleanest signal I could but they were still catching hell not matter what song I played, coils never got stinky because I didn't let them play that long. They are underrated but not underrated to take 2500rms a piece. To the op I wouldn't go more than 900rms daily to each sub.

    Aren't you kinda saying you're doing the same thing? 3.5k at .5 (not putting imp rise into any of this cause it differs too much per set up) on an amp which does more than 3.5k at 1 ohm, but you're at half...wouldn't this make you closer to 4.5k, which then divided by two isn't too far from 2500 each. Granted that 5k at .5 is gonna be a lot more than 2500 as well as the m3, but yea.

    :ehh:

    well I did wire to .5 because I wasn't happy with my amps output at 2 ohm, but i'm not going around saying that my subs can take a 3500 at .5 daily because I know they can't take that kind of power for an extended period of time, or if I allow a low note to play full tilt all i'm gonna hear is the sub bottoming out.

    ^^just what he said. My dc 5k sparks really bad when i put the fuse in the anl fuse holder and i always expect it but it still makes you jump because of how loud and bright it is. Just look over every connection on that wire to make sure no strands are loose or about to ground out before you pop that fuse in and you will be all good.

    no matter how hard I try, I always jump when the spark happens, it gets me everytime, I think the more you antisipate it the more it surprises you lol.
