Krice420 Posted July 27, 2008 Report Posted July 27, 2008 hey i know this has been asked many times but i wanna know where to set gain to on my strapped sundown 3000ds because i want them to push as much power as they possibly can without clipping to my btls. i was thinking setting it like the tutorial would limit my potential power at higher voltage. and if i was to do it like the tut should i use the square root of 6000x2 since im running each amp with a 1 ohm load. 2 18'' fi btls fully loaded 2 sundown saz 3000d 1 iraggi 200 amp alt 3 powermaster 3100d series batts 11.75 cuft wall after displacement tuned to 31.08 hz
EricM9104 Posted July 27, 2008 Report Posted July 27, 2008 you only set the gains on the master amp 2015 Honda Civic LX 4dr | 110k miles | Stock 1996 GMC Yukon SLT 4dr 4wd | 260k miles | JVC Head-unit
Krice420 Posted July 27, 2008 Author Report Posted July 27, 2008 yea i know does this mean i use square root of 3000x1 2 18'' fi btls fully loaded 2 sundown saz 3000d 1 iraggi 200 amp alt 3 powermaster 3100d series batts 11.75 cuft wall after displacement tuned to 31.08 hz
Torres Posted July 27, 2008 Report Posted July 27, 2008 if they're strapped, then set it for both. 6000 watts @ 2 ohms, you need to set it at around 109.5 volts. (6000 x 2)^.5
Krice420 Posted July 28, 2008 Author Report Posted July 28, 2008 i figured id set the master to 3000x1 and the second would follow 2 18'' fi btls fully loaded 2 sundown saz 3000d 1 iraggi 200 amp alt 3 powermaster 3100d series batts 11.75 cuft wall after displacement tuned to 31.08 hz
Torres Posted July 28, 2008 Report Posted July 28, 2008 nope. they act as one. i have mine set up this way. i have the output voltage reading ~110. otherwise that is just half the power. if they're not strapped i dont think the amps will read that high either. which is why they do when they're strapped.
