RooTxBeeR Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 I wont have the system I want for a while. But I want to make sure I know everything I will need, and how to get it all ready before I get it. In the end I will have a RF T1500.1bdCP running on 2 DC Lvl 3 12's and either a T400.4 or a T600.4 running Punch or Power 6x9's in the rear, and a Punch or Power 6.5 component set up front. I will be doing the Big 3 in 1/0 wire, which is going to around 30 ft, give or take some. I will be doing 2 runs of 1/0 to the back, I will be doing - terminal to the ground. SO I will most likely need around 75ft of 1/0 running on around 2000 watts. I looked up the chart, so I will have a 350A fuse on the power wire from the battery. Both runs to the back will hit a distributor, for the 2 amps, I need to fuse both the power wires off the distributor correct? If so what A fuse should I use off that? I have a 60A stock alternator, I know this will not be good enough for running what I will have. This set up also will be the highest I will ever have in this car, so what would be a good Amp alternator size to look for to replace mine. I will use 8awg wire for my subs, and 14awg for the rest of my speakers. Would anyone suggest running a second battery in the back? Or if I just get a nice battery upfront would that be able to handle a 2k watt system with normal car accessories fine? List: 75ft 1/0 wire 25ft 8 awg wire 100ft+ 14 awg wire 2x 1/0 distribution blocks 300A fuse and holder for power wire ???A fuses for distribution block to amp? Alternaotr and batteries???

Leboy23 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 I have an XS d3400 in the back of my car. I run a DC 2K, DC 175.4, and a Hifionics 100.4. I would suggest getting a battery for the back. Two battery's are better than one if you get the proper battery. Or, if you get a aftermarket alternator with good output, a good battery up front would be ok I think. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. 2012 Nissan Altima SL DC M2 Lvl 3 12" with AR cone DC 1.2K Amp Kicker Sum8 Kicker 4 Gauge amp kit XS Power D2700 1.5 Cubic ft net tuned to 38Hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIG Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 Depending on your system I would run 2 decent batteries. From the sounds of things you have enough wire to run 10k watts lol. I have 3 runs 1/0 to my rear battery and 2 batteries under my hood with a 200amp alt on roughly 3500rms and at .5 and around 4k I dont drop below 12volts Since were all having a moment of truth. I hate country too.. I'd only listen to it if I got some hotass bitch in my car and shes gonna suck my dick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooTxBeeR Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 K will chance to a 300A fuse, thinking of something around a 200A alternator, with a nice battery upfront so I wont have to have a battery int he back, because I really wont have enough room. Edit: FYI the 75ft of 1/0, is 2 runs to the back, and rest is for the Big 3.
