Bass not hittin' like before?

[k3n12ock]

Thanks for all the replies. Tomorrow i'm going to do the big 3 and go get another cheap dmm and if i still have voltage drop i.m going to put the soundstream back in until I can cop some 0/1 ppower and ground wire. i read that there are things that take in 0/1 wire and exit into 4gauge or something like that. Any know where i can get something like that?

this happened to me and im running a ed nine.4 and a jl 1000/1...i was using 4 ga wire and it would cut out even if i turned up the volume past like 10/35 on my alpine...but once i upgraded to some knukonceptz 0 gauge fleks wire, everything is fine, i can crank it. also have the big 3 done and a yellow top up front. so new power wire gets my vote

[k3n12ock]

So I did the big 3 today, still dropping. I'm trying to get a HC1800 now and about 17ft of 0/1 power wire. Alt is too expensive at the moment so I gotta back off that.

[k3n12ock]

Okay. So I upgrades these wires:

-Positive wire from alt to battery

-Negative wire to chassis ground

-Negative wire to engine block ground

-Starter wire to positive on battery

Still the same thing. I need some wire look though. The ground from the engine block to the negative was touching the block and got hot which caused shorts. Sucks, I know I'm a noob. But yeah, no difference in my system. It still bottoms out. I guess the next step is getting a new battery. Was thinking about a hc1800 or one of these from Got_Bass89

Oh yeah, do you think it could be the subs bottoming out? I mean, I have them wired at 2 ohm and this amp is suppose to be about 1100+RMS. The subs are only 500rms each x 2.
