Recommended Posts

yup that was THREE. I have my old one from my last build in my truck now and one sitting my pool table room right new to my 175.4s and 2.0 (for my 4 lvl 2 8s which will be mid bass) so thats about all anyone will get for a preview of this build until it starts pretty soon. i figure my burp scores will be pretty high (LOL) and itll be to the point that i wont be able to listen to it at full tilt or close on a daily basis...this will be in my daily truck...so i wont have to worry about fucking them up to much though im sure itll happen

I have a volt module from xs power on the way and i will be up there if you say 15.9 is best ill take that and run with it lol i do not think ill be able to have no drop with them lol there will be some but ill do my best (i have a 496 so 2 alts is it in there and ill be compensating with batts and batts and batts in the bed)

What batteries? Its not good to charge 12v batteries that high. With the 14v you can charge up to 16.8 but can back that down to 15.9. I hope you are upgrading from the XLs to something bigger if you are going to run 1 12k per pair of whatever subs you choose.

im not sold on batts yet so im not sure. that will be my last purchase. but no matter what i do i will be able to get up to 15.7-9 to get the most out of the amps

Nop XLs...the new ones whenever they get here are ordered and paid for they will be built up big time...like i said before they will NEVER get played on music that loud because i doubt that can feel good if i get where i want to be, and last safeguard is they will be wired at 1 ohm each for a daily and then .5 for comp or testing purposed.

My box will be small anyway to build the box how i have it in my head itll be plenty small with the additional suspension to the subs i think itll be ok at 1 ohm so they would each see "3500" or so which will be fine i think

There are a few people out there that run that much power to xls i mean honestly rob had a ab1100.1 on one xl when he first got the crx haha didnt last too long, i had strapped 3.5s on an xl for a while, and there is some other people whos names escape me that have either 9.0s or extremely simular amps on 2 xls.

I ran a 9k to a pair for a season. With my experience I'm trying to get away from overpowering that much to save some cost on the eventual re-cones.
