blownengine Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) Yea thats not a problem at all .. I can easily adjust it I have a volt meter and an o scope available .. So how bad would u guys rag on me for putting a Hifonics HFI2000 on the 3 10" since I can get it for less than $100 bucks I think you just answered your own question there.

blownengine Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 2000 on a stock alt is asking for alot. You would definitly get some voltage drop. And adding a second battery only stressing the alternator more. Alternator first, then batteries. You dont need a massive alt. Maybe around 180 amps? Anyone agree? How does adding a second battery stress the alt more??? I had no problems running 4 XS D3100s with a stock 120amp alt in a mini van. . If your alternator is already stressed from the load and has trouble charging one battery it would have EVEN MORE trouble charging two batteries.

R3nOSlaPP Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 how much do you have to spend on a amp? the AQ2200D is 389 and puts out som good healthy power Quote Vehicle: 2017 Chevrolet Silverado High Country Electrical: 320A Singer Alt, (2) Limitless Lithium 15ah, Full Throttle FT680-48 Speakers: Stevens Audio SA 6 (ACTIVE), Audio Designs 3” Subwoofer: (4) B2 Audio XM 8’s Amplifiers: (2) B2 Audio Rage 2500.1, (1) B2 Audio Rage 1200.6 Processors: NavTv M650 (integration), Helix DSP Pro MK2 Silverado Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blownengine Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) A good 2000 watt amp for cheap isnt going to happen. Your going to buy top of the line DC subs and not give them some good, clean power? that doesnt make sense. Lets see, the level threes come in dual 2 or dual 4. You could wire the dual twos down to 1.34 ohms. The cheapest yet trustworthy amp I can name would be the Soundstream TX1.2000D. It does 2000 watts at 1 ohm. Obviously at 1.34 ohms you would get a little less power but thats ok becasue the level threes only take 600 a piece. The TX1.2000D comes in at $380. http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/p_25246_Soundstream_TX1-2000D.aspx EDIT: and what he said. The AQ is a good amp too.

Saturn Posted March 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 It's goin in a 2002 Saturn SL 5 speed .. What about some audiopipe amps? People say they do rated power bit what about a clean signal?

kr15 Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Audiopipes arent very clean power... I also have a Saturn SL1. I am having difficulty getting loud out of the trunk. I think you can break 140 tho. If done right I think you could do about 141-142(Headrest). I wouldnt expect much more then that tho..I can do about a 39.5 at the headrest on a Sundown 12 and roughly 1k of power.
