Recommended Posts

i got a 1997 chevy tahoe 2wd 4 door and am doing a complete build. i got 7 tvs in it and am putting 2 dc xls in it, i am jw as to what size alternator i should buy to run the system with? i also have 2 4 channels and 1 4/3/2 channel amp for all the mids and highs. any info would help me out

whats wrong with fat chicks? they are like mopeds, as long as your friends dont see you riding it, they are a blast! hahah

oh im sorry man i didnt read what u wrote right, i am running either 1 3.5k to them or a 5k to them. as far as the mids and highs they are 2 100.4 amps and a 360 to 4 amp. i am probably goin to change them up tho before i finalize the build. as far as amps what do you suggest? i have 8 6.5s and 8 tweeters along with 2 supertweets.

big battery under the hood 2 group 31 battery in the back and a 270 unit will do fine

As far as for amps any brand is good just depends on your budget I only ran aq dc RF kicker ,that's about it I liked them both have ur cons and pros but it's all up to you do some research and after putting some actual thoughed you will find an amp that suits you best

Goodluck
