  1. Should I get 2 APSM1500s?

    in Amplifiers

    Posted

    i have an audiopipe ap-1500.1d at a 1ohm load on 2 planetaudio big bang 15's in a slot ported box i got from hifiaudio going on 2 years now in my 2010 tahoe plus a soundstream bass processor and haven't had a problem yet. my cuzin got 2 audiopipe ap-3000.1d on 2 lanzar 1533d (1 on each amp) at a 2 ohm load in a 2003 trailblazer with a superbass probox and you will not sit in there long.

    Oh really.

    Can't fuck with the probox LMFAO.

    probox made of quadwood?

  7. i want security, but the install...?

    it depends on the car. we always recommend professional installation for anything as involved as this just because a you will have to worry about specific triggers, polarity, and different settings.

    Thanks for the reply, even though I posted in the wrong section.

    I'll definitely take your advice in leaving an alarm install to the pros. Too bad I don't live in Cali or anywhere near.....I'm in the middle of nowhere, hours from any big city :(

    If that's the case, just taking the keys out of the ignition should give you better protection than half the cars around you. LOL.

    yeah you're right about half the other cars around me....haha

    i always keep my ride locked up no matter what....

  14. Speaker wire

    There is no such thing as over kill in audio

    I only run 8 guage even for 1000 watts

    The only car I have with 16 gauge is only running 100 watts

    THIS

    use 8 gauge if u can bro, but also consider it's some pretty thick wire and if you have to put two wires into one terminal on your subs(for series/parellel, etc.) you might have to get some reducers from radioshack like i did

    reducers or banana plugs :D

    lulz

    I'll swap out the wire for 8 gauge. I tend to go for overkill myself.

    do iiiiiiiiiiit

  16. D6500 under the hood - worried about heat

    in XS Power Batteries / Chargers! (and other stuff too)

    Any form of heat deflector like that will work good for you. It keeps the heat from soaking the battery, which can lead to the battery swelling. With the temperatures that most have had this year this is just another good way to take care of your battery. If you will notice on most vehicles today the OEMs are starting to use AGM batteries under the hood. With that they are putting the batteries in a plastic case that surrounds the battery and helps deflect the heat away from the battery. Flooded batteries will suffer from heat much less than sealed batteries just because of the internal construction. You can always add water and electrolyte to a flooded battery, but you can't do that to a sealed battery.

    thanks for the info Nathan :)
