MD7786 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 I am running a 1000/1 jl mono with a yellow top and cap. If I just did the big 3 would I stop looking like a disco ball(flashing lights) or is it really necessary to get a ho alt. Quote
corey0928 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 If you get a bigger alt you will need to do the big 3 anyway Quote
Miguels Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 get both done, soon 1000 watts wont be loud enough for you Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/
new guy Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 big 3 should be fine. what kind of cap? Quote *current* 1991 honda crx si 2 skar audio 12s pioneer 6.5s dual 400 watt amp audio technix db 1/0 wiring kit. dual head unit
Quiet Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 Big 3 first with 1/0, then an alt if it ain't enough. It's never enough. Quote 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud.
Quiet Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) big 3 should be fine. what kind of cap? No cap. Never. The money you spend on a cap is much better spent on bigger wire and/or an alt. Edited January 20, 2012 by srp365 Quote 2007 Pacifica Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud.
new guy Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 if its a good brand cap like fosgate and he already has it. theres no reason not to use it. Quote *current* 1991 honda crx si 2 skar audio 12s pioneer 6.5s dual 400 watt amp audio technix db 1/0 wiring kit. dual head unit
kraz1021 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Posted January 20, 2012 usually you can get by with the big 3 with just 1000 watts rms,you could also upgrade your starting battery to a agm,but if you have the money for a HO alt go for it.that way you will have more power on demand if you ever decide to upgrade in the future Quote
MD7786 Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Posted January 20, 2012 Yeah I found that out now about the cap but its already bought and in ya know. Its a 2 fared. I appreciate the advice guys. I think i will do the big 3 then see if I need a ho alt. I know it wont b loud enough but when it ain't hopefully ill have more money to shit out. Haha Quote
MD7786 Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Posted January 20, 2012 Just a lil DB link but like i said its already bought so y not use it. Quote
