shepherd92683 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 I currently run 2 hdc3 18's dual 1 on one aq 2200. Would like to maybe in the future add another and run them at .5 each. I have a d3400 up front and a kinetik 2400 in the back...stock alt as of now. I have a few thoughts as to how to run it but just wanted some other opinions to think about.

CleanSierra Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Dude, you'll have 2 2200 watt amps that do rated power at 1 ohm. DONT go to .5, that's dumb and not needed.

BEEMDUB Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I wouldn't strap 3 at .5 man ur efficiency will go out the door, Just go for an m4a or 2 aq3500s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMI CUSTOMS Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Upgrade alt and add another 2400, that will be fine even at .5 ohm each, just run them strapped at 1 ohm. People saying don't run .5 ohm haven't done it or just thinking you need your hand holded. Make a decision if you are going to run below nominal, make sure you understand what you are getting into.

shepherd92683 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Not adding 2 more amps just one. One woofer on each amp at .5...Can only run dual 1 at .5 or 2 ohms per amp. Not really wanting to strap the amps unless running at 1 ohm between them is ok even though they are rated at 2 strapped. I know they can do .5 each all day from what tons of people out there say.

AMI CUSTOMS Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Yes 1 ohm strapped is fine with proper electrical I listed above. I have strapped my 3500d.1s at .5 ohm (.25 ohm each) for burps no problem.

shepherd92683 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 I only use it as a daily, no comps. My thoughts for upgrading electrical were adding a dc270, and adding another battery. I wanted to swap the 2400 for a d3100 but i think the current draw will be too much for just one 3100. I also really dont want to add another 1/0 run. This is a solid 1000-1500 ill have to shell out just to double power. Dont know if Im willing to sink that much more in it.
