^^ Buying this 2nite! ^^

Also, would this line converter work for the setup that FIREBIRDUDE suggested?

Line converter

 

are you sure I'm not supposed to set them up like this?

 

Positive. If you'll note at the top of the diagram you posted, it says "4-ohm load". You need a 1-ohm load. Wire them in parallel as I previously posted.

 

Oh that's right! I forgot that the amp is 1-ohm stable.

So could I expect results like this? Type R

 

Interesting that he's using the same amp..... lol

It's gonna bump HARD. No doubts about it.

 

Is anyone aware of this XXX brand of wiring kit? Also it appears that it has everything I'll need for the afore mentioned setup but could someone second that?

Amp Wiring Kit

 

Gotta watch it when you buy those no-name wiring kits. 4 gauge doesn't always mean 4 gauge. Thicker insulation and less copper.

If this is the only amp you'll ever have (as in you'll never have one for the cabin speakers) here's a decent kit for a decent price:

If you're gonna add another amp, get this one instead:

The difference being the first one is Copper-Clad. It cannot carry as much current as a wire containing much more copper. I've been using it with my ZX700.5 for over a year without issues. It's no problem. But if you're gonna have two high power amplifiers pulling a lot of juice, better get the good stuff.

 

Thanks for the info man... Just bought 'em.

Too bad shipping is so expensive though...

 

Bah. $50 shipped for the better one? Where you gonna get a true 4 gauge high-copper kit including ANL style fuse holder and RCAs for under 50 bucks? It's a deal.

And if you got the cheaper one, it's still good for ~90-100 amps. $35 shipped? It's a deal.

 

Oh and if you have time, go to that website, then click Knu Kars at the top. Then click the staff favorites tab.

 

Dose it look like this..

 

Does what look like this?

Welcome to the board with your random posts.

 

Haha yes it does look like that.

And welcome.

But I think I'm going with a ZEnclosure. Where did you get that?

 

BTW... Zumn, your new sig is TIZZIGHT!

And Firebird, how'd you manage to become a staff favorite? What's in your trunk!?!

Also, would anybody be interested in me documenting my entire installment of subwoofers with photos and a small guide?

Let me know, Zenor34

 

Wadda ya mean?

Pics of my car in the sig.

 

Sorry about the random post before I was in a rush. Too answer zenor34 question

That box was the first box i built for my 8. im in the process of building my third sub box for the RX-8
BTW.... The box im making right now look almost like firebirdude's but its all fiberglass and carbon

 

All I'm sayin is that I wish I was a staff favorite


Again, is there any interest in a guide for installment?

 

Okay... Not to awaken a semi dead thread but I thought this would be better than a brand new one...

My friend wants to buy my 1206d for almost the same price I paid... Therefore, I'm planning on upgrading to the 1606d for $50.

My first question is if this amp is too powerful for two alpine type r subs?

Second, are there any precautions that should be taken when swapping amps?
