spl dust is an option you can get on the coils... it's great for extra 1000 watts of power

where can i get this spl dust and how much is it. is it hard to apply? lol

The level 5's are only 500 watts more. Granted then can take alot more.

But tests have shown that XLs get louder when theyre on lower power (I think it was up to 3500wrms). Idk whether or not the power was clamped. I'd assume so

i saw something about this too but idk

if i do this setup each XL would be on a AQ2200D or the pair starpped at 1 ohm

so 2200wrms to each sub before rise and voltage drop (if i have any 8) )

if you strap too 1ohm each amp is seeing .5 b4 rise.. so thats way more power than 2200 each.. even at 1ohm they do rated power at around 13v.. but after rise you should see 4-5k but many variables apply..

What you have to remember here is that amps put out full rated power at a reactive 1 ohm load.(nominal ohm load= before rise) (reactive ohm load= after rise). Say you do strap your amps to 1 ohm(.5 per amp) and you have rise to 4 ohms (2 ohms per amp). You will be getting that amps rated power for 2 ohms as long as your voltage is good.

When you run amps at a nominal ohm load below the recommended 1 ohm, you have to be careful that you know what your rise is going to be so that you dont damage your amps. No amplifier company will recommend that you run a nominal ohm load below what the amp is stable to but it can be done safely as long as you know what you are doing, and most importantly have the electrical to back it up.

this is very true

im hoping rise will put me closer to 1 ohm and not be crazy high thats why i wanna strap at 1 ohm

im gunna get a clamp meter and see what my rise is and what my actual power output is of the two AQ2200Ds when i get it all together

when i first put the amp in on my 4 L7 15s i messed up the wiring and wired it to .25ohm and the amp barley got hot after bout 20 min of playing with it but voltage was never below 13.5

im gunna have 600amps of alt power with a VCM and two D3400 and 2 D3100 so my electrical will be up to par

amps will be scoped also with my TPI440
