Here We Go Again...

I know that the 4k's are crazy on 16v but on 12v I can't say. I know if you can supply the electrical you're looking at least 6000w per 7k2d assuming you can keep at least at 12.8v. Keep voltage higher even more power.

get Z2lvs for around $1200

get AQ 3500D for 699 shipped.

they do all 3500 watts and if you can step it up to 16 volts they do 4K.

or do an 18 volt system and it will put out 6500 watts!

not sure about the 18 volt but

i have seen these things on 16 volts though and it does 4K and a lil more. they are very picky with clipping so you would have to be careful and set it up right.

plus they are very hard to blow. i've had my 2200D all the way to 9.7 volts and it worked fine.

they are fairly efficient as well.

as far as spl amps, i haven't found an amp that beats Audioque for the money.

Z2LV > all

[RamenNoodles]

Z2LV > all

You cant say that unless you have tested and bench marked against all other amps

i voted for the 7kd's cause they will be plenty beastly if you're on 12-14ish but when you upgrade again you could just convert to a 16 voth system and have a ton more power so that my logic

[brewer_brewer]

you have to remember that if you are running 16 volt batterys you will actually be running 18+ volts with the alternator.

not sure if the stetsom will handle 18 volts, it might. i'm not that familiar with stetsom. only know what i have heard about them.
