Kevyn McPike Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Hard to find some one that has used both for the same application and clamped both alts to see which one is putting out best amperage. its almost like asking which is better Chocolate Ice Cream or Vanilla Ice Cream. your going to have so many different opinions i just need a solution bad.. that slash is a pwr hoggggg. and is seriously sucking all my power out of the truck.. 2006 Silverado Crew-Cab Kenwood DNX-8120 - Head unit 4 x JL Audio 8w3's - Subs Focal K2 Power - 165 v2 - Front - mids/highs Focal Polyglass - 165 V2 - Rear - mids/highs JL Audio Slash 1000 v2 - Subs Alpine 400x4 - mids/highs BIG 3, Dynomat throughout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
