Guv Posted September 29, 2013 Report Posted September 29, 2013 Ok so before I start I know my electrical is pretty shit for the amount of power I'm running and I wasn't prepared for this but I got excited and just wanted to hear it. I've got a crescendo Bc 5500 with only 1 xs power d3400 under the hood and 1 xs d3100 in my trunk with a stock alt. Not sure on the amperage on the alt but obviously it's not enough. I continually blow the 300 amp fuses that I am running from the positive on the battery to the positive inputs on the amp. The amp is turned down low and I have yet to properly tune it with my dd-1. I just wanted some assurance that I am blowing these fuses because of my shit electrical rather than an issue with the amp. Thanks for any input
n8ball2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Report Posted September 29, 2013 300 amps of fusing with what 500 amps of draw should be pretty obvious why.

Guv Posted September 29, 2013 Author Report Posted September 29, 2013 So what you're saying is I should be using 2 250 amp fuses instead? I'm no expert so I'm just trying to diagnose this issue

I'm no expert so I'm just trying to diagnose this issue no, me and n8 mis-read, i thought you were using 1 300a, so i suggested 2 300's or 250's, that is why i erased it and edited it.
