Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 10, 2016 Report Posted April 10, 2016 What makes you think you're even getting 8k? That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
jeep187 Posted April 10, 2016 Author Report Posted April 10, 2016 Were running the 2 5500 strapped and we clamped them. Its high 7ks
Masterbasser Posted April 10, 2016 Report Posted April 10, 2016 hmm wouldnt the power going thru the wire to the rear batteries be only 300 amps or so? because thats what the alternator is capable of doing? i guess 1/0 would not be enough for that but wondering about my questions for my own information Kenwood excelon ddx795 3 370 amp CES alternators (audio side only) McLaren dome tweeters Crescendo 6.5 ultra neos NVX JAD800.4 4 PA x4 SPL 18's 4 Digital Designs m5's at .7 ohms each 2 K2 80 ah lithiums 3 group 31 agms Ledglow million color (12 piece) 2007 Yukon xl
poorfish88 Posted April 10, 2016 Report Posted April 10, 2016 The 5500s didn't fare to well on the amp dyno to start . Real world numbers are almost always lower cause voltage drop and ohm raise.

Do you have a front battery as well op?

jeep187 Posted April 10, 2016 Author Report Posted April 10, 2016 Yes. I have front battery too. And 4 in the back. Would i get less ohm rise if the amps weren't strapped?
Masterbasser Posted April 10, 2016 Report Posted April 10, 2016 not sure if singer says to have multiple termiantions of wire on his charging posts, I know mechman recommends against it because they can possibly arc between each other Kenwood excelon ddx795 3 370 amp CES alternators (audio side only) McLaren dome tweeters Crescendo 6.5 ultra neos NVX JAD800.4 4 PA x4 SPL 18's 4 Digital Designs m5's at .7 ohms each 2 K2 80 ah lithiums 3 group 31 agms Ledglow million color (12 piece) 2007 Yukon xl
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted April 11, 2016 Report Posted April 11, 2016 What is the voltage on rear batteries at full load? What type of connections are you using? The connections are getting hot because they are too small for the current they are pulling. The resistance across the connection goes up with current and when voltage is dropped across them they appear as a load and get hot. More runs of 1/0 will help by dividing the current across more connections. Dual inputs to the amps wouldn't hurt either. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon)

Would i get less ohm rise if the amps weren't strapped? impedance rise is all related to the enclosure and cabin size @ the tune and has nothing to do with the amps and subs.... its just something everyone has to deal with and cant be stopped only way I know to combat this is design an enclosure around what a imsg and amm1 tells you when you play sweeps
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted April 11, 2016 Report Posted April 11, 2016 It's called an impedance curve and every speaker has one regardless of the enclosure it's in.
