RooTxBeeR Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I can't think of any lower powered ones at the moment, but almost all Rockford Power amps are strapable. To strap an amp, they for one need to be able to do that. When you get amps that can do it, they will tell you how to make those strap, the reason why I suggested it, is most amps can't be strapped at 1 ohm, normally 2 ohms. Which is exactly what you are looking for as a final ohm load. You could possible just pick up another of the exact same amp that you currently have and just gain match the amps to make sure they are identical in output. if he gets 2 amps might as well just run 2 subs at 1ohm on each amp That what I was thinking, just get another of the amp hes got and run them both at 1 ohms, would be a hell of a lot cheaper.

alenv10 Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Well since i already have a hifonics hfi 1500 and 2 OA 15's i might as well just get another hifonics hfi 1500 and 2 more 15's They can handle 750 rms each, its just that... will 3000 rms destroy my stock alt? i dont want to upgrade it yet, but i have seen a sundown ns-1 on a stock alt with 4 batteries...

I have never gain matched, but trying to hit a certain voltage while adjusting gain, IS A REAL BITCH. Edit: ^^^^ yes, you will need to get a H.O. alt, and more than likely a upgraded front battery accompanied by a rear battery. Depending on what you can fit upfront.

alenv10 Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Well if the hfi 1500 arent giving out rated power than thats perfect, 1200 rms is exactly spot on, but... Stock alternator with 2 hifonics hfi 1500's with 3 Batteries, bad idea or will i manage? NOTHING DOWN HERE YET OBSIDIAN FTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
