Sundowner Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 G'day from down under (Australia) land of kicker audio Not for me! I have been speaking to Bryan from Sundown he has helped me choose the right sub have decided I want a X-15 w/spl cone to hit a few higher notes. but now I need your help. My Suzuki swift has a measly 75 amp alternator! where do I start? I looked at Mechman and Iraggi, but no one seems to sells a higher output alternator for this car. So I am on a budget anyway so what can I do to avoid upgrading the alternator will simply good battery under the hood or add 1 more? Finally what amp a AQ2200. I'd love some input peeps!

Mitchaford Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 Replace starter battery and get a matching brand agm battery for the rear if you can. I'd suggest XS Power but in know that import cost would be nuts so I'd look at any local battery shops and see what they carry. Do you already have that AQ2200? Solid amp that would work well with that x-15 2008 VW Jetta Team Fi 12 CT 4000.1 CT 125.4 PWX 6.5 80 PRS EB Flex 2/0 Second Skin ^^^ Build ^^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notorious97200 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 Get 2 good AGM batteries : one for underwood, and the other in the back. The AQ2200 is a good choice, but you can try less power (like 1500) : it won't be less loud to your ears, and will be easier on the electrical. Everything is in the box. black BMW X1 2.0 l 192 hp OEM head unit, Amplifiers : Audison AP 8.9 amp with integrated DSP and Ampere Audio 1200. Focal ES 100 K in front doors, and Dayton RS 180 for midbass under the front seats. 2 SSA DEMONS 10" subs, in a 2.6 ft3 ported box. SecondSkin Damplifier on front doors, and Luxury Liner Pro for the cargo area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
