I'm running 16' 4awg, split to 2' 8's - 1kw and around 500w both class D. If you're blasting it into clipping constantly, that would change things - I suppose that's a lot of the reason for the "wiring guides" to always recommend huge wire.Īccording to that chart above, I "should" be running 1/0. Then assuming you're not at full volume all the time the numbers will come way down from there. That "1000w" amp is getting to ~500w+ 10% of the time, most of which would be dynamics that would be drawn from the onboard capacitors. What portion even gets to -3dB? Maybe 10% - something in that vicinity. What portion of a standard music recording EVER reaches 0db? Basically none. The 900.4 will do about 1k on the dyno - on 0db tones. Will update on if they're willing to take care of me or not.Power wire requirements are generally way over-blown in car audio. I've been in the car audio game with some huge builds behind me and done countless installs over the last 9 years and lately it's just been kicking me down. I have 2 kids, don't make a hell of a lot of money so not sure what to do next quite honestly. I'm also assuming since it's been so long they won't do anything so I'm out $500 on that. If you see something I don't please let me know. I don't get why, the board is completely clean. I bought it online used back in February and never tested it as I bought it through a trusted vendor and it was guaranteed to work. EXTREME sad face with some crying in there. In 15 minute increments over 2 days because the rain wouldn't stop. My daily before this was a 4th order 3 18's walled off Jeep and I have a walled 4 18's Impala so it ain't no thing if the cargo cover has to go to gain a little more room. The main thing that hindered me was the height, I wanted to keep the cargo cover in. If not, I'm going to build one that's a little bigger. If it meets expectations I'll keep it, roundover all the edges, fill in screw holes and make it pretty. I've never done a port like this, so I want to play around with it. A little on the small side for these subs, but this is a test box ultimately. Built the box, think we ended up at 3.76 cubes before displacement and 3.01 cubes after displacement turned at 30hz exact. Sundown Audio NeoPro 6.5 V3 - NeoPro v3 6.5? Midrange - Down4Sound Shop If anyone has any suggestions on where I could place a volt meter it'd be appreciated because I'm stumped on where to put one.Įquipment list with links should you have interest in any of it.Īmpere Audio 3800 (mine is the black model, they changed it to silver).

Lol.Īnywho, I wouldn't call this like a tutorial or anything it's just me uploading pictures if I'm not too pissed at the car and remember to take them along the way. So let me just start off with this will probably be a slow process, I have two kids and I've had the majority of this stuff sitting around for 6 months waiting to go in.
