CrazyCricket12 Posted May 7, 2013 Report Posted May 7, 2013 I know this probably gets asked a lot but was hoping you guys would help me out. I want to run either a sq2200 or sq3500 on 1 hdc4 15 or 2 hdc3 15s along with the sq4-120. What electrical do I need to support this? Right now everything is stock except for optima yellow top and big 3 done. Vehicle is a 2008 chevy trailblazer lt i6. Thanks.
SnowDrifter Posted May 7, 2013 Report Posted May 7, 2013 For the 3500: You'd want a 270a alt, upgraded front battery, a D3100 in the back. 2 if you can fit it For the 2200: Shoot for a 200a alt and upgraded front battery. D3400 in the rear optional, but recommended. ~~~~~~~~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
CHEVY4X4BLAZER Posted May 7, 2013 Report Posted May 7, 2013 Big 3 with 0 gauge wire. Upgrade alternator to at least a 270 amp unit. Replace under hood battery with the biggest XS power product that fits. Run 0 gauge to the rear battery location. Go with a d3100 or d7500. That's what i would do.
PsychoSoundz Posted May 7, 2013 Report Posted May 7, 2013 big 3 is a must with any electrical over 1k pretty much so start there... a xs under the hood and on in the back. check this chart to see what u may want. guide is used for 2 battery applications. you should be able to get away without an alt upgrade on that kinda power. mabe if you use the 3.5k at 1ohm u may start to see a need for a higher alt...

The 3500 is a 4k amp. If he wants to play music for any length of time, and generally people do, an upgraded alt is pretty needed. i shook this one kids hand and it just folded in mine. long story short i fucked his girlfriendso.. yeah..

CrazyCricket12 Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Posted May 8, 2013 Thanks for the replies. I already have the big 3 done in 0 ga so I guess I'm off to a good start lol. Are the optima yellow tops bad bc I just replaced my old battery with one a little over a month ago so I'd hate to waste money on new batteries if I can avoid it.
