MusicHead804 Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 okay so I have this power Acoustik 6000d on two hds3 12s at 2ohms.. The amp takes 4gauge wire. I'm thinking about running 1/0 input to 4g, would this be a good idea ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdaigle Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Is this thing supposed to be a 6k rms amp with 4 gauge inputs? Gotta be way over rated... Can u post a link to the amp or give model number?

Azagtoth502 Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 1/0 isn't really needed for that amp....but you could, just use a reducer. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_46119_Stinger-SPT521-Chrome.html pa-pa-platypus sorry not everybody has a companies nuts so far down their throat they catch every drop ball sweat when it falls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicHead804 Posted June 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Yeah i know it isn't needed but the amp is clipping when i have the gain on the amp halfway up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poorfish88 Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 The amp would gain a little voltage with 0ga. Your amp has 5 30 amp fuses correct? If your run of wire is 8ft or so, its good, but your right on the border line.. Me personally I'd good 0ga. gdaigle, Why are you bashing his shit? He didn't come here saying he has the best amp.... He just wanted to know about wire. BTW your HI Fonics BRX 60.4 I call over rated.... Dick thing to say right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicHead804 Posted June 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 yeah.. i wanna try and save up for a real amp but the highest i wanna spend on a amp is 450$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdaigle Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Sorry... Wasn't trying to bash his amp. Was stating the obvious that a 6k amp shouldn't have 4 gauge inputs. I will be more mindful of that... Yeah pretty much all hifonics amps are over rated no doubt System: Pioneer DEH-8400BH 4 Alpine Type R 6.5's 4 Soundqubed PA 6.5's 4 Soundqubed Supertweets Hifonics BRX 640.4 Crescendo S800/4 2 Soundqubed Q1-3500.1s strapped @1ohm 2 Soundqubed HDC4 18's 11 Cubes net @37hz (Subs up, port back) 2 DC Power 250 HD's 1 DC Power 300 SPX DC Power triple alt bracket 5 Kinetik HC 1800's 4 runs of 1/0 OFC power cables 4 runs of 1/0 OFC grounds from rear battery bank to OEM alt bracket iPad Air in dash 300+ sq ft or sound deadening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
