feelthebass33 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I'm going to be running a MA 802sx for the time being and I'm wondering what to do as far as wire size and amount to run. I already have about 20 ft of Knukonceptz 1/0. Would two runs be sufficient? Also when i do the big 3 do i need to match the amount ran for everything? Or could i just get some 2/0 welding cable and get the same results? Any help/advice is appreciated 1994 Lincoln Town Car Headunit: Pioneer Premier 510UB : 2 Powerbass AEQ-7X0 Eq's Front Stage: 30 Mids/Highs off of a Kicker zx850.4 & Kicker kx600.4 Sub Stage: 4 18" DC Level 4s (w/ Level 5 coils) : 2 Mmats D3000.1s Security: Autopage RS730 Electrical : 200 amp Powermaster Alt : MLA module : KnuKonceptz wiring : 6 Universal Battery UB12750's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomabanga1986 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 lol, i dont think ive seen 2 or 3 runs to one alt, ied just do one run of 1/0 or 2/0 welding cable if u want to just make sure each cable is the same size in the big three is all that matters and is the same size as the wire u run for ur amps or what knot or bigger, do u have secondary batterys also cause ive heard those ma's pull alot of current for what they do, i kno a dude that had 2 ma hk 802's runnin 4 kicker l7 15's walled ina blazer n he said he had around 12-14 batterys for it cause tehy pull alot of shit but for one i think 2 or 3 rear batters with a good starter battery will be sufficent, anyways good luck with ur build here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feelthebass33 Posted November 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Thanks, and I have a 240 amp powermaster alt and 5 yellow tops hopefully that will be enough, then big 3 with 2/0 then 2 runs of 1/0 to the back...and yeah I keep hearing/reading that about the 802 kinda scares me, did i make a poor choice on this amp? Is there another amp out there that will put out 3500-4500 @ 1 ohm that wont pull quite as much current? 1994 Lincoln Town Car Headunit: Pioneer Premier 510UB : 2 Powerbass AEQ-7X0 Eq's Front Stage: 30 Mids/Highs off of a Kicker zx850.4 & Kicker kx600.4 Sub Stage: 4 18" DC Level 4s (w/ Level 5 coils) : 2 Mmats D3000.1s Security: Autopage RS730 Electrical : 200 amp Powermaster Alt : MLA module : KnuKonceptz wiring : 6 Universal Battery UB12750's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomabanga1986 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 only amp i kno of is prolly the rf t4000 that might not pull as much but the ma does alot at 16v tho but i unno maby someone else will chime in but i think a rf t4000bd would be more efficent tho, may i ask what ur runnin this to as substage? here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomabanga1986 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 i think ur electrical will be good for this amp but if u wanna go 16v u'll get alot more current out of this amp tho, i dont think it does the 4400w till 17v tho, heres the t4k tho http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=4735 i think ppl can get em for half that off high desert audio on ebay but i cant seem to find that store lol, anyways i beleve the rf amp is more sutited for 12v systems when the ma is more of a 17v burp amp, now it will work well on music but to get its full potintial ued need 16v and most ppl dont run 16v daily but still a good amp all around, i mean it takes power to make power so when u get up in that kinda wattage it will pull around 300+ amps to do that kinda wattage efficently, but all in all ied try to do 2 runs ground in back at the batterys might help a lil tho, anyways good luck wit ur build hopefully someday i can get up to that kinda power here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feelthebass33 Posted November 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Thanks for all the advice tacoma...Did you mean 2 runs of ground from the front to back? or just two runs from chasiss ground to battery bank in rear? I figure Ill try the 802 out and see how it does then switch if need be. As for subs i cant make up my mind...only thing i know for sure is i want to run a lot of cone area, I was thinkin 4 18s, 8 15s or maybe 16 12s 1994 Lincoln Town Car Headunit: Pioneer Premier 510UB : 2 Powerbass AEQ-7X0 Eq's Front Stage: 30 Mids/Highs off of a Kicker zx850.4 & Kicker kx600.4 Sub Stage: 4 18" DC Level 4s (w/ Level 5 coils) : 2 Mmats D3000.1s Security: Autopage RS730 Electrical : 200 amp Powermaster Alt : MLA module : KnuKonceptz wiring : 6 Universal Battery UB12750's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomabanga1986 Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 ied run 2 runs of 1/0 from the rear battery bank to chassis ground should be enulf, i think 8 15's would be loud as hell but 16 12's would need alot of airspace to sound right but im not sayin it will sound like shit, if i done 16 12's and didn't have eunlf space to port em ied seal em up but ied either do 4 18's or 8 15's cause 16 12's would be to much wire for the power to run threw n ued loose some current threw the speaker leeds goin threw that many woofers, anyways good luck on ur build man here's a link to my system 99 toyota tacoma , 2 mtx 8000 1504's in a sealed downfire , 1000w memphis amp here's a link to my other system my 90 geo prizm test car heres a thread i got of new songs u can dl that are legal = Some Good Bangage/you Can Dl These Free And Legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
