screwgreen Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 So i have a 2001 F150 that I have a Sundown Z v.2 12 in. The box is 1.8cubic ft at 32hz and It is being pushed by a Sundown SAX-1200d amp. I still have stock alternator and Red duralast battery. Voltage reads 14.4 and up at idle, but does go down a little bit when I play the sub hard. I dont really have problems pushing the sub right now, but I know I need better electrical. I plan on adding electric fans in the future so I need some electrical upgrades before I can. I have Big 3 done in 1/0 welding wire and all the wire to the amp is 1/0 welding wire. Should I just get One big battery and leave stock alt, or add 2 batteries with stock alt, or upgrade alt with One big battery. Give me suggestions on which battery I should get that will fit under the hood of a 2001 F150. Right now im guessing system is 1200-1500rms, but I want to have enough electrical so that I can run 1500-1800 rms and electric fans. What would you all recommend??

Nathan @ XSpower Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 D6500 will fit under the hood and be able to run what you have. What is your voltage dropping too? If you aren't dropping into the mid 12s then I wouldnt worry about anything. Quote
screwgreen Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Posted June 18, 2012 ive never hit 12s no matter how loud I have it turned up but will a d6500 allow me to run my sub and electric fans?? Quote PSI and Sundown audio FTW!! 2001 F150 crewcab Sundown z12v.2 on a sax1200d! 1/0 welding wire!
Nathan @ XSpower Posted June 19, 2012 Report Posted June 19, 2012 YES, the D6500 will do that and a lot more. Quote
