FaTbOy911 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 pretty much the title says it all i have a memphis 2.5k do u guys think 2 D3100 and 1 D3400 is enough for now i have a stock alternator thinking of buying charger before i buy alternator Quote Had an estimate of 6400 for an alpine/clarion setup dealer said it "should" hit around 160db with the custom boxes he was going to make for me..doubtful with so much area to move but, budget is way below that any ideas on cheaper brands for that kind of Spl setup? really didnt want to try any Boss or soundstorm, thinking Quantum figure around $150 per speaker "$1800 total" and $1700 to power it, first actual big setup for the van.

THEKINGsBACK Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Buy an alt and run the 3400 and 3100 more than enough coverage gonna be hard for a stock alt to charge 3 batts 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...
hdorre Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Yeah, if you don't play too hard on it. When you get the alt, you shouldn't get any drop at idle Quote On 5/8/2011 at 7:38 PM, Kranny said: On 5/8/2011 at 7:35 PM, 'Maxim' said: It hurts me inside when I read stuff like this and remember you're 15 LMFAO so true Mitsubishi 3000GT (Old Build) Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: (2) McLaren Audio MLT-2 Tweeters & (4) PRV Audio MR Series Neo 6.5" Mids Substage: 4 15" Hybrid Subs - Tantric Motors & Sundown Softies Amps: Banda 2.4D Amp (Tweets), American Bass VFL 350.4 (Mids), and (2) Ampere 3800s Electrical :Singer 260A Alt & JY Power Lithium 2005 Chevy Colorado Ext Cab Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: 4 PRV 700Ti Tweets & 6 10" Delta Mids on 3000wrms Substage: 6 Fi BTL 18s in a 4th Order Walkthrough on 3 Wolfram 4500s Electrical: Singer "390" and JY Power My Official Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert8252 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 You'll be fine. I run 2k off of stock alt and one regular battery with no voltage drop while driving. At idle it gets down to around 12.x.

Sanitarium Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 with that kinda battery power, you can easily run double that power without dropping out of the 13's. (except for say on minute long burps) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford302Redneck Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Holy overkill. But in a good way. One extra 3100 is suppose to be good for ~3500 watts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
