I'm getting 2 800 wat amps 2 power 2 10" L7s and a 2 farad cap should I go with 0 guage or 2 guage?? Does it really matter man install is pretty expensive almost like 400.
what? To install that cost 400! Fu ck that. learn to do it yourself. And I don't think your amps can accept 0gauge inputs, probaly 4 gauge. In your situation, do 4gauge. And don't waste money on a cap, upgrade your battery and do the big 3.
Well I got the cap for free and thy said you can do a 0 guage I'm gona have a distributor so I can run the 2 amps off 1 power wire and I know a little to do it myself but I don't wana mess it up and blow my subs becuase they were pretty expensive.
Well rather than pay someone that rediculous price,do it yourself.It's best to learn now and you won't have to ever worry about it again later.If you pay someone to install your stuff and something goes wrong you're going to have to pay them again to fix/inspect it.It's not very hard to install any car audio it just takes a little time.
"I don't wana mess it up and blow my subs becuase they were pretty expensive."
mess up or not, chance is good they'll blow anyway. and yeah, if you pay $400 for installing 2 amps and a cap. (waste) you need slapped. at the most it should cost about $150-200 tops for those 3 things installed.
l7's aren't as sensitive as they are shi_tty. very poor build quality and they tend to blow easily. waste of money imo. as far as tuning the amp i'd say that's easier than the install.
Get yourself a DMM(Digital Multi Meter) and you'll be able to tune your amp properly.If you don't know how to build a box there are a few guys on these Forums that could probably do it for a decent price.
Ok well I kno you guys hate em but I'm going 2 try thm for myself if thy blow ill jus get some type R or something but anyways do you know where I could get a good set of directions on hooking up the power wire amps and cap I already know how to wire the amps but I don't kno if I need new rca's I don't even know what they are I have one of the amps arealdy hooked up and running so wouldi need another set of rca's for the 2nd amp I think I'm going to do it myself... and I already have everything I need except power wire and a ditributor box and maybe rca's anything else I need?
