installed my system today. still have stock speakers running off head unit (waiting from shipping from ebay for 6.5's)

it went good sounds good too. i got one pic but ill post more tomorrow cuz it was dark when i put all the sh*t in. camera phone doesnt take pics in dark

got a question for someone. i'm looking at 1300rms or so and i have 4gauge from battery to amp. i plan on splitting the existing cable will 4gauge be enough to push both amps around 1300rms?

the amp is stable @ 1ohm
it is rated at 560rms @ 2ohm

so if i connected the sub to one pos and one neg on each channel it should be 1100 rms or so right?

i just dont know if its @ 2ohm or not

^^ also the voltage meter already drops to like 11 which isn't good. if i tack on another 250-300watts i think my car will die at idle.

^^^^^ Neither the cap or battery will help you.

The only fix for an inadequate alternator is an HO alt. If I had a quarter for every time I've had to say that....
