Nightshade Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 Your best bet out of all of the choices is the XS Power D3100 by far. I would put up my XS Power batts against any other out there and they should win every time. I have 2 D3100's in my car and under the hood I have a, guess what it's a Deka Intimidator G34 batt and I want to switch it out for an XS Power D3100. Start off with one D3100 and then add more later on. That Kicker amp will do just fine off of a single D3100 and the 2 Deka's is not necessary.

You said that your a truck driver right? Do you ever drive through Tennessee? If so that's where XS Power is located and you could talk to Scottie J and I'm sure he would let you come right to the factory to get one. The 3100 is comparable to what size kinetik? None really I'd say that it would take at least a Kinetik 2400 and a 2000 to equal the brute strength of the D3100. In a drop in comparrison a D3100 was .9 db louder on a burp than the Kinetik 2400. I don't care who you are that almost 1 db is well worth trying to locate a battery instead of setteling for another lower quality brand.

Ya, I'm a truck driver, dont usually go to TN, mostly east coast...maybe I should just get a PO BOX on the other side of the border, and see if they will ship one to it....????.... And thats why I want a d3100, and not kinetik, QUALITY.....I dont want to buy something else, then kick myself in the ass for not getting the d3100.....and wasting money.

Good call! There are tons of dealers on the eastern seaboard. Give Scottie an email at [email protected] and ask him for some dealers that you may be near in the future. I love it when people don't cut any corners and get the best that they can afford. Good for you man!!!

wL<3bass Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 Kinetik is good....but to be honest I want some D3100.....they are just more powerful than the hc2400 and comparable in size.
