Bass4Lyfe Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 (edited) Okay - for my new build - David is building me the box (picking it up Saturday) and one 15" DC Level 4 Getting a Sundown 1000D this Wed, sub this weekend or next Wednesday. I've got that figured out - just need some help with the wiring. Thinking of running 1/0 to be safe from battery under the hood (250 A fuse?) to the back, to a distro block, then some 4 gauge to teh Sundown amp. mids highis will be a 100.2 or .4 not sure yet, i'll run 8 guage to that from the distro block (distro has 4 gauge out - how would i reduce this?) I want a voltage meter somewhere in the system - where should this go? I want to know what both amps are running at As far as electrical, was thinking a nice new battery under hood and no change to the alt - maybe the big 3 and call it a day? car is in sig Hmm can't think of any other questions now, look for a build thread in the next week or 2!

EricR Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 1/0 for big 3 and a new batt under the hood then 1/0 to the rear with 4 gauge to the mid/high amp. Quote i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

Bryan Posted July 14, 2008 Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 i highly doubt you will need a 250 amp fuse. why dont you just use what sundown reccomends?

Bass4Lyfe Posted July 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 yup isn't that what i put? *double checks* yeah sounds good - wait why 4 gauge for mids highs? also for speaker wire - the subs want like 10 gauge - maybe 8 to be safe? thanks Quote ~Matthew 1998 Toyota Camry XLE V6 3L (1) ScyTek Astra 4000RS-2W-1 2-Way Remote Start Alarm with Shock and Proximity (1) 20% Tint All Around (Gately Audio) (1) 250 Amperage HO Alternator (1) Big 3 Done In 1/0 (2) Kinetik HC2400 Power Cell (1) Alpine IVA-D106 Receiver (1) Peripheral Video Bypass Device (4) Alpine SPS-17C2 Speakers (1) Alpine KCE-422i iPod Control Interface (4) Sheets Dynamat Extreme; for speakers (1) 10 Square Feet Hushmat (Trunk & Rear Deck) (4) DC Audio Level 4 15" D2 Subwoofer w/ Level 5 Coils (1) Wall Built By David, Tuned to 32 Hz (1) Rockford Fosgate T40001bd Amplifier (1) Stinger 1/0 Wiring (2 runs of + 2 runs of -) (1) Stinger Volt Meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass4Lyfe Posted July 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2008 i'm going to be running 2 amps so it might not be that simple - total of about 1500 watts RMS - call it 1100 for the 1000D, and 4-500 for the 100.4 Quote ~Matthew 1998 Toyota Camry XLE V6 3L (1) ScyTek Astra 4000RS-2W-1 2-Way Remote Start Alarm with Shock and Proximity (1) 20% Tint All Around (Gately Audio) (1) 250 Amperage HO Alternator (1) Big 3 Done In 1/0 (2) Kinetik HC2400 Power Cell (1) Alpine IVA-D106 Receiver (1) Peripheral Video Bypass Device (4) Alpine SPS-17C2 Speakers (1) Alpine KCE-422i iPod Control Interface (4) Sheets Dynamat Extreme; for speakers (1) 10 Square Feet Hushmat (Trunk & Rear Deck) (4) DC Audio Level 4 15" D2 Subwoofer w/ Level 5 Coils (1) Wall Built By David, Tuned to 32 Hz (1) Rockford Fosgate T40001bd Amplifier (1) Stinger 1/0 Wiring (2 runs of + 2 runs of -) (1) Stinger Volt Meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
