Swaggasaur Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 i currently have a Mechman 220a alt, d3400, and a d1200. on dc's website, they recommend 2 alts. but thats kinda out of the question for me. i was thinking a total of 3 d3400's and the d1200, or sell the d1200 and a 4th d34 or just stick with 3? and ill also be using a sundown 120.4 for mids and highs so i guess 4 d3400 would be better? any input would help. thanks 1 Quote BHE Wall Build TEAM DC Audio TEAM XS POWER1986 Monte Carlo KMC Nova's 20"4 DC XL's W/ PSI Recones2 DC 5k'sPioneer PRS 8010 Audio Technix 6 XS Power D3100's 1 XS Power D3400 Mechman 220a Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacomaguy1 Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Lol Maybe not that many, but with only a single alt you'll need a bigger battery reserve if you want to play for more then a couple songs full tilt Quote Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDrifter Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Is 16v electrical out of the question? You could do some 14v batteries.

Swaggasaur Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Is 16v electrical out of the question? You could do some 14v batteries. i think it would be possible for me to do a 16v setup, considering my vehicle is an 86 so i dont have all the electrical components as a new car would have Quote BHE Wall Build TEAM DC Audio TEAM XS POWER1986 Monte Carlo KMC Nova's 20"4 DC XL's W/ PSI Recones2 DC 5k'sPioneer PRS 8010 Audio Technix 6 XS Power D3100's 1 XS Power D3400 Mechman 220a Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
