lotus Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 i have 2 american bass xd 12s on a american bass 100.1 (1500rms) and i checked my voltage at full blast and it maintained around 14.6 with a 1 sec drop every 20-30 sec to 14.2 but mostly stayed around 14.6v. should i still do Big 3? will i notice a difference?

Bump4life Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 what kind of car do you have? cobalt coupe? what size wires are stock in that car. what kind of battery do you have and what size wire going to amp? That seems almost impossible. Physics should prove that to be false.</p> Quote Buyer/Seller Feedback Thread: http://www.stevemead...5015-bump4life/ MB C220 153 Trunk Car Build Log: http://www.stevemead...d/#entry1840136 MB C280 Ipad Dash SQ Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194484-bump4lifes-new-benz-tony-c-relay-kit-pictures-ce-electric-audison-front-stage-installed/ My SPL Log: http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1 BMW M340 xDrive Stock, for now.

blkgp_03 Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Did you measure at the amp or battery? Quote Clip city bitch, clip clip city bitch. 10's, 12's, 15's, goin up in flames bitch.

donpablo Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Never hurts to do it and if you had a bigger amp later it will already be done Quote 2015 F-150 Platnuim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEEMDUB Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Yea dude its always better to have the big 3 done, thats kinda unheard of if your voltage really is that on stock electrical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 where are you reading this voltage from btw? The amp itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotus Posted February 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 well thats just wat the voltage meter said that i plugged into my 12V plug. idk how accurate it is but everything is stock. and the only 0awg i have is batt to amp. and alt to batt is only 8awg Quote 2010 Cobalt LT Coupe Subs: 2 American bass XFL 12s Amp: Crescendo BC3500D Big 3 in 1/0awg 29hz box stinger volt meter 2nd battery Deka 9a31 pioneer DEH-9400BH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFF Larry Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 do the big 3. get it out of the way so you wont have to question yourself in the future. but that reading from a plug n play cig lighter meter could not be correct. check with a dmm at the amp and batt Quote Team Clearly Louder (MECA)Team DC Audio ++* SELLING the CACTUS SOUNDS K12 for $1550 shipped *++ HMU!!! 3 flips. nollie flips. big flips. hardflips. - steez Youtube Channel My Build Log 95 Bonneville SSE - WALLED/4th Order - ~30 cubes - *thanks LoganBerry, CortezDVT, Cj18, SuperCharged DC, Ryan-RAM Designs,LoudNLow931* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
