Silver Member Username: KenwaPost Number: 489 Registered: May-04 | Kicker ZX1500.1 and 2 12inch memphis M3s. The amp is rated at 750rms at 4 ohms but should put out about 800 or more. You will have a damn nice system right now and if you ever decide to upgrade subs you wont need to buy a bigger amp you can just run the same one at 2 ohms. |

Gold Member Username: FrkkevinResonant Engineering..., Fort Worth... Email Post Number: 1445 Registered: Nov-05 | two SI BM 12"s with that same amp as trevor posted .. hifonics BXi 1206D |

Silver Member Username: KenwaPost Number: 490 Registered: May-04 | When hes spending that kind of money he can get a lot better equipment than hifonics. And were those question marks for me steven? |

Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 3100 Registered: Sep-04 | he shouldnt really run over 600w rms. he has a stock alternator and he said its a small one. also maybe 2 12 assasins sealed with about 600-800wrms total. or 2 FI audio X 12s |
|
Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 3101 Registered: Sep-04 | a kicker zx750 or kx600 would be a good buy for an amp as well. |
|
Silver Member Username: KenwaPost Number: 491 Registered: May-04 | Its a mustang gt which has a V8 so that stock alt isnt that small so he would be fine with what i suggested. |
|
Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 3102 Registered: Sep-04 | my 6L V8 has a 130A alt and dims bad with 1000w rms without a battery. id guess his is a 80-100a alt. |

Silver Member Username: RvlacosDD 3512 United States Post Number: 257 Registered: Sep-06 | you think the Hifonics BXi 2006D is better than the crossfire vr1000d? i hear bad things about hifonics. r they overrated? |

Gold Member Username: FrkkevinResonant Engineering..., Fort Worth... Email Post Number: 1446 Registered: Nov-05 | I run 1160rms off a 90A alt in my Jetta with no problems.. lights dim slighty only when the h/u is on 3/4 .. |
|
Silver Member Username: RvlacosDD 3512 United States Post Number: 265 Registered: Sep-06 | i run 1300 wrms off of a 115A alt with 2 batts and lights never dimbut i am still tryin to get a 200A alt but irragi or ea never emails me back wtf? iv emailed them both twice.... |
|
Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 3105 Registered: Sep-04 | the battery makes all the difference though. adding a batcap took away all my dimming. but soon i'll have a 250A alt and a kinetik monster. a kinetik 800 for like 125 on ebay is so worth it. go ahead with a 1200w amp or so if you want and just add that bat into the items, i promise you wont regret it. probably even a good idea if you have a 600w amp. |

New member Username: Goodie_goopPost Number: 4 Registered: Oct-06 | hey thanks for all the quick responses guys and im still lookin in to all the stuff u said but i jus wunted to throw this out there...i went to a local audio dealer las week and he put (2) 10" infinity 1030W subs and an alpine amp in my friends truck and said it would be a good system for my car but with a pro box he had on the showroom floor for $250...jus wunderin if that sounds alright or how these ones you guys are saying compares and i already have a pretty nice HU but ya ill need new wiring...and if i can get a good system for cheap enough then how easy is it to run a batcap |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Try Google Post Number: 7951 Registered: Aug-05 | infinity doesn't compare to anything mentioned in output, maybe Sq, they do sound good. |
|
Silver Member Username: Tremor1127Post Number: 383 Registered: Aug-06 | i think hifonics are great budget amps. i know of an old silver hifonics brutus amp thats been cranking on 2 different sets of 15s for like 3 years now... i have had several hifonics amps myself and have not had one actually burn out on me... |

Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 3117 Registered: Sep-04 | to run a batcap, take the wire going to your amp (or from your reg bat depending on how you look at it lol), cut it, put the end of the wire to the pos terminal of the bat, then from the pos to the amp. then ground the battery. SIMPLE =) |
|
New member Username: Goodie_goopPost Number: 7 Registered: Oct-06 | does the sound change if the amp is wired at 1,2, or 4 ohms? |
|
Gold Member Username: FrkkevinResonant Engineering..., Fort Worth... Email Post Number: 1451 Registered: Nov-05 | the higher the impedence the cleaner the sound.. of course there are many variances not to mention the type of amp.. if your not competing in SQ you prolly won't notice a difference |
|
Gold Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 3122 Registered: Sep-04 | yeah. unless your a sq judge, you wont notice. marshall runs his amp at .35 daily. |
|
New member Username: Goodie_goopPost Number: 8 Registered: Oct-06 | so i guess i have a 130A alt but i dont know if thats big or not...? or if that helps with the kind of system. how good are the hifonics? i havent heard much about them. they are low priced so is that because of poor quality or just good priced amps? |
|
New member Username: Goodie_goopPost Number: 9 Registered: Oct-06 | i have been lookin at the soundstream SPLX. i havent heard anything about them. any idea how good they are? or if i could run 2 of them with that batcap mentioned earlier? hmmmm a little bit pricy though. thats just my thoughts right now, what do you think? |
