[QUOTE="Water Bear, post: 8863592, member: 673826"] That's kind of why I asked the question the way I did. I don't expect anyone to know if a specific electrical set up will work for a specific amp unless they happen to have done it themselves, which is probably rare. It's better to know a voltage target and then upgrade to hit that. I have a Tahoe so it's easy to go buy alternator brackets and stuff like that if I really need 'em. Thanks for your answer by the way, very useful info. My system is getting loud, but it's honestly not as loud as I expected. Two NSv4's on 3k in a Gately box. (Got a decent price on the NSv4's off eBay. Otherwise wouldn't have gone with that). Part of the issue here is that I need hella sound deadener. The poor Tahoe is gonna rattle apart at max output, and all that rattling is energy lost to noise that could be making volume. So I gotta learn how to do that job properly. For what it's worth, I'm looking at an SFB 8k but there's other options out there which I might try just for fun. And I do listen to decaf mixes sometimes. [/QUOTE]
