Silver Member Username: Boston_splHighland, CA United States Post Number: 108 Registered: Nov-08 | I agree, with that amp you should be fine. However, if you actually run a proper amp to that sub, that puts out at least 2000w rms, then depending on the output of your alt. you'll probably need a modest upgrade. But again, right now, as is, you should be fine...especially if your not cranking the hell out of it all the time. |

Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 153 Registered: Feb-08 | i only crank it at certain times. Not sure about my output atm, need to get home and look, im in class atm. Think i could just buy a cap and call it good? |

Gold Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 1379 Registered: Aug-07 | if you only have 1500 rms i would move down to the BL. that will get plenty loud and sound pretty good on 1500watts |

Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1592 Registered: Mar-07 | thats a lil amp for a normal btl let alone a fully loaded i have the same sub off 2500rms and it barely comes alive compared to what it can do |

|
Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 156 Registered: Feb-08 | @P Rick. what amp are you usin to power it? |
|
Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1605 Registered: Mar-07 | kx2500.1 i think AQ has a 2k or 2200 rms amp reasonably priced |
|
Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1606 Registered: Mar-07 | unless your planning one day to upgrade your electrical alot and run 4krms on it i wouldnt spend the money to "fully" load it |
|
Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 157 Registered: Feb-08 | Yeah, im just gonna get the stock BTL with the cooling, but i was looking at an Orion amp, http://www.orioncaraudio.com/Products/Products.aspx?ProductID=509 how you think thatd work out? prices are around $600 i think. |
|
Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1607 Registered: Mar-07 | never heard anything bad about there amps i think if you wanted to save a lil cash the aq is like 5 bills i believe but leme check |

Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1608 Registered: Mar-07 | http://www.audioque.com/aq/AQamps2200D.htm im not the guy to ask about matching up ohm loads so MAKE SURE they are compatable b4 buying but heres the link to the amp |

Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 160 Registered: Feb-08 | rofl. nice bro. i think ill take you up on that idea. ;D |
|
Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 161 Registered: Feb-08 | btw, how would i set it up to run 4400 to a dual 1 ohm fi btl 18? EDIT: also, ive got the cash stashed away for the interior and undercar kit for LED glow, the undercar is the 3 million color bs. So with the LED exterior and interior kits, the AQ 2200, what batterie and alt should i get. I have a stock 2008 Nissan frontier crew cab. The alt is 110 amp alt i think. |

Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1611 Registered: Mar-07 | this is the point where i become usless im terrible at matching ohmloads and hooking subs to amps deff ask someone else you may need to get the d2 version this amp may not work at all all i know is this an amp a lot of people use and has a good price keep in mind if you go over about 1200rms you should prob upgrade your alt if you want things to run smoothly deff if you run 2k+ |
|
Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 162 Registered: Feb-08 | sounds good, know anything about alts or batteries? I edited my last post. |
|
Gold Member Username: Surferdude9371Get loud or go home.... Post Number: 1612 Registered: Mar-07 | are you planning on ever upgrading to a bigger amp? if so should save up and get the biggest they make for your ride if not id say a alt that produces 150amps at IDLE should be fine with 2 deep cell bats optima is a good starter brand for bats i use 2 of the yellow tops but there are much better bats out there they are just pricy |

Silver Member Username: DeanerjrPost Number: 163 Registered: Feb-08 | probably not for a very long time, ill be doing interior and exterior looks after this upgrade. |
