who here is running a capacitor?

I was running 2 18s on 8k rms managed a 148@20hz ... the batteries weigh 86 lbs each

its not a bad budget build but my current amp alone cost over $1500 each battery around $400

yea im good with it costing that much for anything but the whole thing lol

With the 4 gauge wire you are using for your amplifier, I am presuming it will not draw over 150 amps of current even @100% efficiency, your amp will only produce 2160 watts . At a realistic 80% efficency, 1700 watts. My current amplifier draws over 400 amps of current wired at .25 ohms

are u guys trying to go deaf???? I think two 12s are good enough.

I do it at a competition level , but I stil listen to it daily ... I NEED MOARRR

Plus those sexy buss bars OMFG

[sgtsmasher]

what are you talking about^^^^

[freemind]

Buss bars are used to link the battery posts when you use multple batteries.

a 0 gauge wire is limited to approximately 300amps of current .... those copper bars connecting my batteries can flow 1k+ amps without melting
