its not based on wattage, its all based on current draw, 400 watts would draw about 35 to 40 amps...if he has a lets say 70 to 80 amp alternator, then i can see voltage drop because it might only put out 50 to 65 actual amps... plus the reserve the stock battery has.. which probably isn't much...so yes it could happen and no it might not. It does depend on what he has under the hood...

Hey thank you for inlighting me! I had no idea it had to do with amps.

It also has to do with how much the car it self is pulling. Some cars you turn the headlights off and the alt is only putting out half of what it can. Lota possibilities.

lol, his eyes are set on the DC Level 2. but hes looking for other options.

SA-15 or the T3 T300 or T600.

Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

Haha

These would be good choices. I would personally run an Ascendant Audio Assassin or Arsenal though. Nick definitely knows his shit, but so do Jacob and Ed :trippy:

I think that the price difference between a LVL2 and LVL3 is only like $30 bucks so I'd go with the LVL3...at least that's what I heard the last time I got a price sheet

Current Systems:

2011 BMW 335i

Hertz HDP1

DC LVL3 12" Full Carbon Fiber

2002 Acura Tl
Kenwood DNX9980HD
2 DCLVL4 12" Subs with LVL5 Parts D.7 Coils
DC 3.5k
Hertz HSK-165 up front HCX-165 Rear
Hertz HDP4 Amp
DC Power Engineering 260 Amp Alt
Big 3 and amp powered with KNU 1/0
XS Power D2400 Up Front

i pulled out my dick in class many of times and had it shown. get over it bitch...stupid open legged hairy beavered bitch...

going over rms = smaller box, under rms = bigger box...

Low voltage doesn't blow amps. That's a myth.

A router that does the sub holes makes rounded edges also?

I am fan of the Treo engineering TE's. They handle 500W RMS. I pounded mine for about two years. My commute to work is 1 hr each way and i listen to my music a little over half volume they held up sounded clean and put out great low end on digital bass. I pulled them out to reduce size of my system not because they were worn out. The DC's are great no question just offering my personal experience with another make.

Thanks for all the replys, I'll clear up some blank spots for those who have questions. Don't be hatin' but I have a 2006 Kia Spectre, got it for $2500 from my mom and with the gas prices and shit I couldn't turn down that offer. Idk what alternator it has but I already replaced the stock battery (it was 5 years old and kept dying on my current 300 watt system). I don't have a big 3 or anything and I doubt an aftermarket alt would fit in my small ass car. Also, I had my eyes set on the DC level 2 because of its low rms, cheap price, and it has a very reliable company name behind it. What I was asking for in short is a good 15" sub that can handle full tilt everyday (after break-in period) and run hard on under 600 rms. What I'm mainly looking for is some beast ass lows, I download stuff like Decaf and then slow it down ever further. My comment about getting one 15 or two 12's is because I don't know which of the two would produce deeper/stronger low end in my 4cu f max enclosure size.
