Tuesday, January 09, 2007 - 02:40 GMT Hell yeah they are. But you are going to need a HO alt if you get that amp so know what you are getting into before you take the leap.

Tuesday, January 09, 2007 - 17:09 GMT orion 2500 is a very solid and reliable amp. i have 2 in my ride and never a problem (knock on wood). i was running a single jl 1000/1 off my stock 105a alt and it was okay. i would still upgrade to a bigger one though. the orion 2500 definately needs a ho alt upgrade. also i believe the orion hcca-d5000 is a upgraded version of the orion 2500d.

Tuesday, January 09, 2007 - 23:00 GMT I have an hcca-d5000 and am very happy with it. I am running my stock alt (137 amps) and a stinger SP800 batt in the back and it doesnt kill my voltage badly. Its also up for sale if interested, only because im downgrading my system.
