wanna swap out 4 RFt4000s for 2 SD8000!

[dblovah51]

needed advice. we are now runnin RFt4000s but they arent aggressive enough in the 40hrtz range and i tink that mekin it even more difficult to produce a good score. its a wall with 4 18s btl and our best score is 155.4 at 49hrtz. i feel the amps are the step one problem. any othe4r amp suggestions wpuld appreciate the help!

what kind of electrical do you have? could be you dont have enough juice for it.. but i know redbaron80 switched from 2 RF4ks to 1 SD8k and gained like 2 whole DB.. but he had the power to back it

right now we have 8 xspwer d3100s and a mechaman 250 alt< and two runs of power and 2 runs of ground to the battery bank. and i would like to see a whole 2db gain in this swap, those RF produce this aggressive LOW frequency response but that not gonna cut it for the meter bein that the box is tunes to 37hrtz

Your alt seems to be weak for this power, you need at least another one. IMO

I agree with notorious at least one more alt to keep the batteries from taking a hit, a couple more runs of wire, vcm and maybe tune a bit higher?

i would like to find a bracket to run atleast one more alt. but cant seem to find a bracket anywhere for a 2005 jeep cherokee . if anyone can guide me in the direction id appreciate that and as for the runs of wire yea that will have to increase also but it still doesnt change the way the RF produces its smooth roll off bass. and if i tune it higher it wont be a good daily driver after.

find a local machine shop or car garage that does custom work and have them build you a bracket if they can. thats if you dont have the tools and skill to make your own like some other ppl do

i pretty much wanna kno if goin with the SD8000 is a wise idea bein that i will add the extra electricals to support the beast. or is it equal power to the RF and im waastin my time swappin? the wall is tuned to 37hrtz and doesnt really produce in the 40hrtz range to my satisfaction and peakin at 49hrtz i feel there shoulkd b a better score than a 155.4. my blazer does a 156.9 at 41hrtz with the same 4 18s set up and 4 3500 sundown in a no nwall application. so help me out there!

i personally dont have the skills to do the brackets lol i wish i did cas my blazer is dyin for a brakcet for a while now, but the only guy who can make the bracket for me is hella busy man and kiinda tired of waitin would rather purchasin it from someone like dc or ohio etc.

maybe try a port plug for tuning higher/lower?
