Rich859 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Ok, so I'm going to be getting 2 DC lvl 4 15s, and a AQ 2200D amp in mu 96 Grand Cherokee. I currently have a stock 136 amp alt with a 1000 cranking amps duralast red top battery. Will those 2 things be enough to power the subs and amp? or do i need to upgrade one of them? Or something else? Thanks in advance for your advice. /e: ment alt in title not amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dereileak Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 well, it will be cutting it close, I had a setup with close to your wattage, for the most part if your driving it will stay around 14v, if you ever hit real big bass notes it will drop to at the lowest around 13v, that was my experience anyways on a 1999 130amp alt, you may want to upgrade your alt and battery someday, start with the alt, if your tight on cash, try it out, it will be close 2006 Mazda3 Hatchback Black 5 Spd ManualPioneer 4300DVD2 Sundown SA-12 (34hz Tune, 3.22 cubes, 14.5 inches per cube, Triple Baffle)Kicker 10ZX2500.1 (2845 RMS) Sub AmpKicker 11ZX650.4 (705 RMS) Mid Amp -- (3 Amps)Kicker KQ3 Active CrossoverKicker KQ30 EqualizerKicker 09QS60.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones)Kicker 09QS65.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones) - (3 Sets)2/0 Gauge Electron Beam Technologies (3 Runs, 2 +, 1 -) 1/0 Gauge KNU Kollasal Flex (1 Run for -) 300 Ft Kicker X-Series 16 Gauge Speaker WireXS Power D3400 (Rear)XS Power D3100 (Front)Singer Externally Regulated Alternator (Being Built)+ The Love for Car Audio and BASS <3UBL Build Log <------- Click Here-------> Normal Build Log (For Comments) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask mostly because i'm not that good with the wiring. very necessary, its going to maximize your alternators possibility to charge, and it will make a stronger return to the battery from the amp, many people run 1/0 gauge to the amp then 1/0 to the frame, but dont do 1/0 from the battery to the frame, they maybe have a 4 gauge factory, so its really like they are just running 4 gauge wire all around, you gotta do it, if anything do the battery neg to the chassis first 2006 Mazda3 Hatchback Black 5 Spd ManualPioneer 4300DVD2 Sundown SA-12 (34hz Tune, 3.22 cubes, 14.5 inches per cube, Triple Baffle)Kicker 10ZX2500.1 (2845 RMS) Sub AmpKicker 11ZX650.4 (705 RMS) Mid Amp -- (3 Amps)Kicker KQ3 Active CrossoverKicker KQ30 EqualizerKicker 09QS60.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones)Kicker 09QS65.2 Components (Woven Carbon Cones) - (3 Sets)2/0 Gauge Electron Beam Technologies (3 Runs, 2 +, 1 -) 1/0 Gauge KNU Kollasal Flex (1 Run for -) 300 Ft Kicker X-Series 16 Gauge Speaker WireXS Power D3400 (Rear)XS Power D3100 (Front)Singer Externally Regulated Alternator (Being Built)+ The Love for Car Audio and BASS <3UBL Build Log <------- Click Here-------> Normal Build Log (For Comments) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
