Recommended Posts

Posted

I am planning on buying 2 t1500-bdcp and right now i have 2 pdx 1.100 and 1 pdx 4.100.

i have 1 run of 0 gauge, should i upgrade to 2 runs or 00 gauge or will it be fine. shop says it will be ok...i dont think so

From the way that I understand Digital Amps is that you are not going to really gain anything with multi run's of wire. I run the JL digital amps in my truck with a single run of 0 gauge and 2 optima yellow top's and dont have any voltage problems.

I still need to upgrade my alt also.

its right about at the limit...on tones and bassrace ur gonna be pulling a shit ton of current.

But on music its pretty dynamic so it wouldnt pull close to 400 amps ever.

at full output 2 1500s be around 400 amps, on top of a mids and highs amp so add on another 40 amps to be safe.. so its definitely a good idea to upgrade.
