KOZ89 Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 with my old setup i was running 2 10's pushing about 1500 to em, and with a stock alt at around 114amps and at 1404 maximum watts(doesn't mean it actually pulled that much due to it being old as shit). After looking through my electrical i seen that the factory wire was only a 6 awg for some reason, and pretty sure if i uped it with a 2 or 0, it would have been alot better for my system. But then again my amp was fed by a single 4 awg coming from a yellow top and i can play a song for 30 seconds, then comes the voltage drop from 14.4 to 11.3-12.5ish. So it was intense and annoying Quote build coming late April, early May build log for 1 LVL 5 18" 87%ish done : http://www.stevemead...ab-dc-lvl-5-18/ 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 Slt Laramie Amplifier - AQ3500d.1 Sub - DC LVL 5 18" Highs - (2x) Selenium ST-350 Super Tweeters 8ohm Mids - Selenium 6" 200w midrange 6W4P (pair) Mids/Highs Amp - MB Quart ONX4.125 1000watt 4 ch Wiring - XP Flex 25' Red, 25' Black Alternator - Mechman 270amp Battery - XS power D3100, 1- Yellow top front more to come...
