Big P Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 I was thinking tonight. I dont know if this is possible or piratical. If you had 2 amps going to each voice coil of a 2 voice coil sub. Could you hook a meter to each amp and monitor the output voltage at the dash. Then you could drive around and look at your meters and know both amps are sink and working properly.

sean 371 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Both possible and practical. The normal voltmeters should read ac voltage...And then you can see how much power your amps are putting out too.

onlyinajeep Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 could you use something like this http://cgi.ebay.com/Cool-BLUE-LED-AC-200V-...1QQcmdZViewItem how many volts would it have to go to for a 4000 watt amp TEAM PURE Team South http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/195192-8-pure-audio-15-flat-wall-chevy-crewcab-dually-vid-page-4-s/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big P Posted July 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 i wounder how dependable that volt meter is. If it broke would it take your amp out to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaxfire69 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 I have my Stinger on the dash..I am not getting a true reading at my dash. Don't know if it is my meter or if it is just because I am losing Voltage due to to long of a run of wire from my amp in the Trunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsuv Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 i wounder how dependable that volt meter is. If it broke would it take your amp out to? It looks to easy to me on a 15 dollar gauage. I'm sure there is a way though. Designing, building, and shipping boxes. Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big P Posted July 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 yea im kinda sketching on metering them. if something happens im sure the amps i will be useing will poof out the magic smoke fast. My dash is shaved and preaty bare so it would look cool and server a good perupus to have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
