VIP3R Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 too little? my box builder(michael hughes) used 14 instead of 12? am i gonna have a problem? or should i change it out for 12 gauge before you bash me, i have read the sticky. and checked the BCAE calculator...still not sure what to do. switch it out or leave it. *EDIT* sub amp: kicker 1500.1 at 2 ohms 2 Sundown Audio SA-10s Box built by Speed of Sound Kicker 1500.1 Infinity Ref 475a Rockford Fosgate T1682c 6x8s Pioneer Premier DEH-510UB XS Power D6500 Stock 130amp Alt Big 3 Build Log
THEKINGsBACK Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 what kinda amp do you have.. what ohm load are you running? he wouldnt be the first to say they did a 167 with a system like that (one that clearly DOESNT), but i have to say, he didnt beat me anywhere, ive never competed against the guy. If he thinks his does a 167, mine would probably put him in a coma. :hairtrick:
BeAlLsTaR13 Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 ive actually seen people gain .5-1 full db switching from 12g to just 8g, just swapping out wire so IMO, wire that little could possibly make a huge difference Team Sundown Audio**CURRENT** -- 2012 Scion tC Build Click Here **OLD** -- 2002 Pontiac Grand AM Build Click Herecheck them out, slap me a comment2002 Pontiac Grand AM SE 2.2l 4 cylinder ecotec.-------------------------------------------------------------------Head Unit - Alpine CDA-9887Subs - 2x Z 12 v.2s - v.3 + NS Soft partsAmplifier - Sundown Audio SAZ-3500DEnclosure - 3.33 Cubes tuned to 34.66hzFront Stage - JBL P660c 6.5" ComponentsRear Deck - Powerbass 4xl 6.5" Mid-RangeFront Stage Amplifier - Sundown Audio SAX-100.4DWires - Kicker Hyperflex 1/0, KnuKonceptz 1/0, Knu 4 and 8 Gauge, Kicker RCAsElectrical - 275 AMP DC Power H/O Alternator, XS Power S3400, XS Power D2700Videos - http://www.youtube.com/user/BeAILsTaR13-------------------------------------------------------------------
