So I'm looking at picking a a small maintainer/charger to stash under the hood of my truck so I can just plug the truck up when it's going to sit a few days and help keep the battery in good shape. I'm looking at a bunch of these on the auto parts stores' websites, but none of them say what voltage they're regulated to and I don't want one that's going to overcharge my battery if it sits for a weekend. Anybody know a decent one that won't break the bank?

There's plenty of real pro HF drivers that play loud down to 1.25khz fine. But they're all so damn big I don't think you'll be able to fit 'em in a car. You could try some of these http://cgi.ebay.com/TWO-JBL-BULLET-TWEETER-HORN-VINTAGE-PAIR-8-OHMS-2402-/280615525044?pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item4155fd1ab4 IIRC they can be crossed over at 2.5k-ish

you're gonna wanna give that amp its own 30 amp circuit. don't think you could get away with a 20 amp for it. -

Voltage drop cause THD to rise? & Possibly clipping?
qu1cks1lver56 replied to qu1cks1lver56's topic in Amplifiers
I scoped it with a load. And see, I hear stories like that all the time, the only thing I can think of, that might've helped them get as hot as they got, is that the motors were in the sealed chambers of my 4th order. And well DD doesn't recommend running their woofers in a sealed enclosure. And if the amps did start clipping when the voltage dropped, and the coils started getting hot, and then having no port to move some air through to pull fresh air in, all they did was move around in hot air. Plus I couldn't smell them when the motors were sealed up so no telling how long I played them while they were hot before the first one let go. I'm debating on getting recones, and running them inveted in the box, and seeing how they hold up then, and I'll make sure to be super easy on them for a week or 2, I wasn't hammering on them (not even close) and being very conscious of DD's recommended break in time. But I couldn't help myself, I let it eat a few times. Right now I'm looking on some input on what others think I should do, the inverted thing seems like it would work if I keep the volume down until I get an alt to keep up with the current draw. -
Well I successfully fried the coils in my 2515's in 2 days There was no clipping on the outputs of the amps, except slightly on a 0db sine wave, which music comes no where close to in level. There was NO clipping with a -5db sine wave. My question is, since I had some hardcore voltage drop if I let it play for more than 30seconds-a minute, will voltage drop (14.4ish to 12.0, or possible less I tried not to let it get that low) cause the THD on an amp to rise significantly and clip the output? More specifically, on a RF T1k (elite)
