hdorre Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 I ran 8k between my frontstage and subs on my same 240A alt and ~200aH of reverse. Id drop to 11.9, but stay there. At slam fest, i demoed for the greater part of the weekend, and can count on one hand the amount of times i say 11.6 or lower. I wasnt being "careful" either That seems really reasonable for 8k, what brand of alternator did you have?Singer.

MrSkippyJ Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 I ran 8k between my mids and highs on my same 240A alt and ~200aH of reverse. Id drop to 11.9, but stay there. At slam fest, i demoed for the greater part of the weekend, and can count on one hand the amount of times i say 11.6 or lower. I wasnt being "careful" either 8k to tweeters and midbass is much different than 8k to a substage. Why?

I wasnt being "careful" either 8k to tweeters and midbass is much different than 8k to a substage. Why? There's so much less information in the upper octaves that you're never really using that much power. Not to mention, not sure of anyone who's running straight sine waves at 8kHz, in comparison to basically any song that has a steady bass line. Of course I'm talking about people saying they have an 8k amp for subs versus an 8k amp for tweeters. "Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now. It's like witchcraft... it automatically explains just about everything people don't understand.

MrSkippyJ Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Thanks for the answer, I realize now that just asking why sounded very sarcastic. Would the electrical demand me similar if some waves were used?

Irocthestreetz Posted December 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 The 320 im getting has a turn on of 650rpm. With the motor you have, i would look for a lower turn on, even if that means giving up some top end. Just my opinion. What brand of alternator?

Irocthestreetz Posted December 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Well dc power makes a 270a, 190A at idle alt for $650 compared to mechmans 240a, 140a at idle for $400. How much more in terms of headroom will the 30a extra with the DC give me? Will they both let me run 5k comfortably? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen those do work in person. Great alt there. SMD SUPER SELLER The Burban Build Blazer Build sold Acura trunk build sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
