Gold Member Username: Stateprop486PA Post Number: 1474 Registered: Jan-08 | every car has a charging system but yours is stock. so if your running anything over 1000-1200 watts your going to need an H/O alternator and the big 3 done. how much is ur budget? |

Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sI get Bucks like Milwa... Post Number: 5481 Registered: Feb-06 | weren't the old XXXs rated at 1500 watts? I mean given they will take more, but still the 3250.1 is a little overkill. Not to mention RD is not the be all and end all that timmy makes it out to be. I would go with mmats amplifiers way before I went with RD. they have a smaller footprint, more efficient, and they are way underrated. I would buy a new alternator before you buy any amps though. check out excessive amperage, ohio generators, mean green, and couple others. |

Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Lagrange, GA USA Post Number: 1814 Registered: Mar-06 | The old XXX were rated 1500 rms, and the new ones are rated 2000. Problem is, they are so inefficient, you need 2500+ to move the big woofer. As for alts, I never liked Excessive Amperage, I have seen/heard way too many issues with them. I LOVE Ohio though  Amp wise, the 3250.1 would be perfect. Gives head room and you can set gains low. Kevin lowhz01@yahoo.com |
