mrafrica Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 ive heard that people have modified amps before (steve) and was wondering how you do that? has anyone done a tutorial on it before on this site? i would apreciate it if someone could help me out with this one. Quote And far as the best connection ever....... get a huge fucking battery, cut the top off, drop an alt in there and then pour all that into your big amplifier. or just smelt them all together.

ALPINE408 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Depends on the amp on what mods you can do most mods are taking out an ohm resister or protection to drop the amp to a lower ohm to get more power With out clipping or going into protect Quote Have you ever had your woofers blown?

ChevyBoy Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 why are you looking to modify it? whatre you trying to accomplish? since you have no experience (and if its an amp in your sig, forget about it), i dont see it working out for you.

ALPINE408 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 There are also mods to allow the amp to take a higher voltage I.e a 12 volt amp protects at 14.4 volts you would then be able to go to 15 16 volts Also I would not try it unless you know what you are doing for sure or poof Quote Have you ever had your woofers blown?

mrafrica Posted December 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 oh ok thanks team bassick (alpine) that clears it up alittle bit. chevy boy its called trial and error. the only way to gain experience is to try. if it do do it (which im probibly not gonna do) if i mess up the amp then oh well. atleast i will have learned what not to do next time. and if you knew me in person you wouldnt doubt me like that. this is all i do is work on things all the time. if im not working on some kind of project then something must be wrong. small engine, big engines, electrical, bikes, tractors, garden tractors, trucks, cars,anythign mechanical. i do it all. it may not be perfect ut i try my hardest. some people need to stop being so negative towards others. this isnt the first time that someones doubted me on here. 5th maybe?

siucsaluki11 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 ^^^i hate when that happens cuz im the same way. Ive though about doing that to my amps, and i probably will once i have enough saved up to buy new ones. Its kinda fun taking shit apart and toying with it. Ive been doing that for a while, dirtbike was my favoirite to toy around with, till she died and it wasnt worth fixing.

ChevyBoy Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 ok well since both of you are buying new equipment, why not buy something thats going to suit your needs? why take it apart and risk fuckin it up? seems pointless and a waste of money to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siucsaluki11 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 chevy... Im going to be buying the propper equipment, once i do ill go and fuck with my current amps, just for shits and giggles. That kinda stuff interests me, so why not? Im probably gunna end up with 2 Fi SSD18s (or something of that nature) and an AudioQue AQ2200D (or something similar) to power them.
