memphisBred Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 I have a Iraggi 260a Alt and the Big 3 done. I am planning on buying an AudioQue 2200d (possibly Sundown SAZ-1500 or 2000) to power a DC lvl 4XL 18". Also will have the Sundown SAX-125.2 along with a 50.4 powering the mids/highs. So I need batteries to power ~2500 wrms. Eventually, I would like to get another AQ 2200d(or Sundown) and another XL 18". Will the 260a alt with a XS Power d5100 up front with a d6500 in the back do the trick for the 1 amp/sub setup? What could be added later to supply me for the 2 amp/sub setup? Thanks.

dmanson Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 I think you will do fine with adding a D2400 or D3100 to the back, maybe two of either along with two runs of 1/0 positive. i'm sure it'll slam hard.

memphisBred Posted May 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Is your suggestion for the 2 amp/2 sub combo or 1 sub/1 amp setup? Quote SMD Super Seller/Buyer Audison----Hertz----Rainbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan @ XSpower Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 If you had a 5100 under the hood and a 6500 in the back you should be good, and then when you get the second amp you could just add another 6500. That would make for a strong set up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memphisBred Posted May 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Thanks for the response Nathan. I am gonna get the 5100 next Friday to go up front. When I get some more money I will get the 6500 for the back. Trying to do this right and get my electrical straight before anything else begins. Thanks again Nathan.

memphisBred Posted May 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 What top post, terminals, or accessories will fit and which ones do I need for the 5100? The 580? Quote SMD Super Seller/Buyer Audison----Hertz----Rainbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan @ XSpower Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 The 580 will work fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memphisBred Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Yeah I saw the 586 was taller so I just went ahead and ordered both. Can't have to many! Quote SMD Super Seller/Buyer Audison----Hertz----Rainbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEKINGsBACK Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 ok this may sounnd like an idiot question but i done my home work and still cant figure it out... can you use a 14 volt battery on a 12 volt system.. like for instance how will that affect the other function of the car.. or is it perfectly safe and if i need other items what are they.. thanks.. Quote he wouldnt be the first to say they did a 167 with a system like that (one that clearly DOESNT), but i have to say, he didnt beat me anywhere, ive never competed against the guy. If he thinks his does a 167, mine would probably put him in a coma. :hairtrick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a stupid question at all. The 14V batteries have to be charged at a higher voltage than a regular 12V alternator can supply. You can either get an alternator with an external regulator or use the VCM (for those applications that the VCM will work with) to charge around 16.8V. Most people have been able to run their stock electrical on the 14V system, but I have had a customer that needed to add in a step down module for his 12V stock electrical system. It is really vehicle specific and you would want to check and make sure it will work on your vehicle. It seems that the Fords are effected by the higher voltage more than the other models so far.
