soundstream15 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 i used -10db with my AQ1200 to my pair of sundown sa's i have upgraded that to a AQ2200 so should i still use -10db or -5? iv heard that -10db is just more power then -5 since that is for sq. i just get confused when it comes to this stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundstream15 Posted April 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Ok thanks!!! I'm running 4awg from rear battery to amp, and its only 120amps max so I know the amp should put out more power when I upgrade that to 1/0awg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 -5 or if you really want to be an over-achiever, use -0. But then I don't think you'd ever get full power out of the amp unless you are burping Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundstream15 Posted April 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 0db is just dumb personally. I actually used -5db then -10db and went right in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaPRiCEx383 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 I would use the -5, That's the one I usually use. 0db I use when running .5ohm's to be safe.
