hdorre Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 these are truly the best amps I have ever owned. Having matching amps is sexy by its self, Now add the needles and its sex. People love them until I say 1899.99 EACH lol. I want one soo bad. I have a Sundown 3k (that I haven't used yet), so I guess that'll work I love the RF Power bass knobs though. They just rotate...smoothly lolz. Idk how to explain it :/ The price definitely turns me away On 5/8/2011 at 7:38 PM, Kranny said: On 5/8/2011 at 7:35 PM, 'Maxim' said: It hurts me inside when I read stuff like this and remember you're 15 LMFAO so true Mitsubishi 3000GT (Old Build) Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: (2) McLaren Audio MLT-2 Tweeters & (4) PRV Audio MR Series Neo 6.5" Mids Substage: 4 15" Hybrid Subs - Tantric Motors & Sundown Softies Amps: Banda 2.4D Amp (Tweets), American Bass VFL 350.4 (Mids), and (2) Ampere 3800s Electrical :Singer 260A Alt & JY Power Lithium 2005 Chevy Colorado Ext Cab Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: 4 PRV 700Ti Tweets & 6 10" Delta Mids on 3000wrms Substage: 6 Fi BTL 18s in a 4th Order Walkthrough on 3 Wolfram 4500s Electrical: Singer "390" and JY Power My Official Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97SSBlazer Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 You may also want to recommend people not to connect the battery until you check the alt charging voltage. People may not want to risk their 12v battery getting like 17volts. I know you said what resistors and alt you have, but the resistors may have different results on different alts. They also might try different size resistors. DIODES! DO NOT use resistors! If you disconnect your battery how can you start your car to see voltage? I WOULD START SMALL with the diodes. I began with this setup. Just be careful, I can't stress that enough. lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just use my double dins sub control. -50 to +10 is plenty of adjustments for me. We O-Scoped the JVC Double din in my sig and the deck has VERY clean out puts. lower tuning is just hard.

hdorre Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 You know what I meant. Thanks for looking out though. You make a good point about starting the car. That's what happens when I'm overtired I guess :/ I'll have to reread this thread tomorrow morning.

hdorre Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 The bass boost is the only thing I don't like about the knob. That's why a 3Sixty would be nice for me, because it offers gain control.

97SSBlazer Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I demo my system all the time and working at a shop has its perk. I got my amps for a GREAT deal, both of them still cost me more than most people spend but I think it was worth it. People love them for their size, needles, and how loud them make my car. lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
