Sundown Audio

Wats the pros and cons of running tool maker dual inputs to a crescendo bc3500 or sundown 3500


Recommended Posts

mmmmmmm...NO vs treadds???

LOL what?

It depends... for a low power setup I would say negligible... but its for less resistance. Think of it as a water pipe, a wider pipe puts the water under less pressure to get where it needs to go. For those two amps it couldnt hurt, both are single inputs and for a 3500 watt amp at full tilt, the current draw is right up there for a single run of 1/0.

so basically with dual inputs i can more juice to the amps. then especially with two runs of 0 goin into the amp.

Imagine an hour glass with a 1 inch neck an another with a 2 inch neck, The sand would flow alot easier through the 2 inch neck. Which would be less resistance and make it more effcient.

He is a member here, but he uses Car Audio Classifieds and has his own section there. (hmm am I allowed to say that? Guess I'll find out?) His work is top notch and does more than just dual inputs. Pretty much anything you want.

Like so:

this isnt a VS. thread, he isnt comparing the sundown to the nendo, he is asking if he will see an increase of some sort from using dual inputs.

If you use OFC 1/0 i dont see a reason to use dual inputs unless you were going to compete. If it is just a daily system i dont think you should need them. Once you get into amps that have single inputs and do 4500+ watts, i would highly suggest them. For 3500, yes and no, it is up to you.

There are no cons to using dual inputs except needing more wire, everything else is a plus.

wat else does he make

What ever you want. You give him a good idea, and he can make it. Buss bars and all. I drew these up with MS Paint and it came out like I wanted. He is good.

Your last statement hits it right. Dual inputs won't hurt, but ensures you are getting the juice needed for power hungry amps. This is also bottle necked if you don't have the appropriate charging system...Alt, Batts, and of course the wire to back it up with.
