OrionStang Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Can't go any bigger than the 270XP i'm using now. I have 3 XS 6500's and an S1200 under the hood. How many more 6500's do you think I would need? Not trying to sell the ones i've got, shipping nightmare.

heckvr4 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 on a single 9k ,i have a singer 400a alternator, 4 runs positive 0g to back , 10 xs power d1600's. amp wired to .7 , voltage still drops to low 16s on music, stays low 17s on burps. i need more batts :/ and hopefully CJ will start making alt brackets for f150s Quote 05 f150 4 18'' DC lvl6 2 DC AUDIO 9.0ks 161.3 @ 44HZ build log here96 tahoe http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160522-8-18xls2-dc-100k4th-order/page-9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ18 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I would add 2-3 more 6500s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corona_jeff Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) cody is right 2 or 3 more 6500s would do the trick. That alt is fine. But you will just need a stronger batt bank to keep voltage up Edited February 9, 2012 by corona_jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ18 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Maybe consider the XP3000s also. Will give you more reserve and the group buy is coming up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Thanks guys. May go this route when I get the 3 xls. Probably not for a while. Need a buyer for the lvl 6 before anything happens. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HatersGonnaHate Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Tuned in too late, but I was gonna say wait for cj's input lol. Also agree with Jeff, can't really have too much "overkill" when it comes to power. Better to have too much juice than not enough. Fuck unnecessary voltage drop lol.
