Scrapmanson Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Hey guys I have 2 sa12's and and running off of a sax 1200d and plan on jumping to the saz 2500d. I have a yellow top optima under the hood now and I have an xs power 3400 on it's way, I have heard it's not good to mix batteries but I really don't want my optima to go to waste, I just bought it like 2 weeks ago. If it's ok to mix both will go under the hood, which one should go to the amps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 why do you want to put 4000w to 2 600w woofers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrapmanson Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Umm the 2500 puts out 4000? I was told alot of people run the 2500 to 2 sa's no problem....I just want to get louder so thought jumping to 2500 would do it according to a post I put up and answers I recieved about that question...

blownengine Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 4000 watts? The site says 2500 at 1 ohm. Even then your doubleing what those subs are rated for. It might be risky.

Guest Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 haha oh my bad i read that as a 3500. even still, why do you want to put over twice rated to those woofers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrapmanson Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I believe they are REALLY underrated! I've read alot of people powering the sa12's with more than that so I think I'll be ok...lol I just want some opinions on my battery situation?

RickyFriery97 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 ive mixed a yellow top with an XS power batt not for long cause i was upgrading to all XS but i had no problem both bstts stil hold a charge and the yellow top is now in my buddys truck the batts will be fine but if your gunna run XS i would eventually get another XS batt to match eventually Quote 2014 Chevy Silverado Crewcab 1994 Chevy Full Size blazer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swaggasaur Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 youll be fine running that much power to the sa 12's just be careful of clipping and feed em clean power Quote BHE Wall Build TEAM DC Audio TEAM XS POWER1986 Monte Carlo KMC Nova's 20"4 DC XL's W/ PSI Recones2 DC 5k'sPioneer PRS 8010 Audio Technix 6 XS Power D3100's 1 XS Power D3400 Mechman 220a Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrapmanson Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Yeah I'll probably upgrade to both xs after awhile but I stupidly bought the optima cause my original battery was done and it's in my daily truck.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnockinthaStreetzof608 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 i think you will be fine, with the batterys i done it before , just dont do it for long also i doubt he is goin to see the full 2500 anyway with box and impedance rise and the voltage he is goin to drop he should be fine if you set your gains right (oscope it) Quote CAR -2005 Ford Mustang (Legand Lime) H/U -Pioneer avh 3200dvd Amps 2 AQ 3500d.1s strapped 1ohm daily .25burps 1Sundown Audio 100.4 1 Sundown Audio 125.2 Subs 4 AQ HDC'4s 12's Mids and highs 4 Sundown Neo Pro 8s 2 AQ Super Tweeters Electronical Mechman 270 unit 1 D3400 2 D3100's WALLED!
