matt14 Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Now do you guys that have beefed up electrical have any voltage drop? Right now I'm dropping to 12.8 on the low lows. What are you using to read the voltage? I went and installed another 18 the other night and thought about it for a while and decided to wire to 0.35 ( knowing that i dont have the electrical, but you wont know till you try it ). I went around the corner and played full tilt. Stinger meter read 13.4v at full tilt, measured with my multimeter at the same time = 11.1v full tilt! So now i dont play my music at all until i can get my boy to come through and help me pull this sub back out and wire to 1.4.

cmegorm250 Posted September 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Yeah I'm using a DMM. I'm going to play low volumes till I get a battery for the rear. 11.1v is low dude! If I saw low 12s with mine I'd prbly wire it to 2ohms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt14 Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Trust me, i dont go past battery voltage or i turn it down, normally 12.6 volts. I played music for maybe 5-10 sec and seen the 11.1 and backed it off quick. I knew i didnt have the electrical, and confirmed it with that. But I knew the risk of trying it. Its going to be hard to go to 1.4 since I heard the potential, but I'll try something new next year.

mwjustic Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 this thread has officially made me scared. i know iv asked in the past and yet i still wired at .5. but now that iv heard i can be causing damage even if my amp isn't getting warm scares the crap out of me. i'm going to wire to 2 ohm this wknd and order a xs d3100. hopefully soon ill be looking in to a singer alt. 1 Quote 2005 ford explorer xlt limited 4x4 2 xs power d3400s 2 runs of shca mid/ highs- infinity 6x8 3 ways 2 18 ssa icons 2 aq 1200.1 @ 2 ohms 10 cubes tuned to 36 hrz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
