ToNasty Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Something seems wrong. A stock unit is more expensive then that and the picture is dated 2009. And I bet idle output on that is the same as a stock unit. Which is like 90-100amps. Might as well get a dc250hd for 400 and be good. Just a suggestion Peeonally I don't like the sound of that one. And I think they had a 145 and 160 amp. Not a 200 ***Super Sellers List***http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_paralyzed_ Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Wiring the fronts/rears all together for 2 ohm stereo sounds like a bad idea to me.The rears will get exactly half the power. The coaxials are more efficient than your front setup. The rears will be screaming, and you will want more volume from the fronts. Didn't you take out the rear seats? Who are the rear speakers for?Also, you need some kind of crossover on those tweets. How do you plan on splitting up the frequencies between the mid and tweets up front?

The rears are fine and if they are getting too much then ill simply disconnect them, as for the Xover that is handled by the 80PRS and the tweets will have 10uF caps on them to keep them from getting anything over 2khz. As for the alternator, again I have NO plans at this time to put an alternator in the truck, whether you think it will work or not is irrelevant as it is my truck after all.

Since you seem to not understand why I am crossing them over at 2khz. https://www.parts-express.com/tang-band-25-1166sj-1-neodymium-tweeter--264-834 Read the specs, pretty much every tweeter in a "component set" has a lower limit in that 2khz range.

You said "nothing OVER 2khz to the tweeters". You meant to say "nothing UNDER 2khz to the tweeters". That's why he's confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
