Olive oil un-virginer
A few weeks ago I completely killed my stock battery. It won't hold a charge anymore. After I get a new battery, I'm starting on my next install. I'm running a visonik v4000xd that uses the same board as the MA audio HK4000d. Here are the rated figures, which I have read are accurate:
Rms Power @ 14.4V DC: 1 x 2500W @ 4 Ohm, 1 x 3500W @ 2 Ohm
Rms Power @ 17V DC: 1 x 3000W @ 4 Ohm, 1 x 4000W @ 2 Ohm
I have $120 of Sonicelectronix in store credit, but can spend more than that. I am pretty set on the XS D1200. I will be upgrading the alt as soon as possible. From stock battery location to amp, it takes less than 5 feet of wire. I have heard this amp does not like low voltage. It was made to run on 16v electrical.
My question is if the battery I chose will be enough for the amp. I'll only be running my Sundown X-10 in a 4 cube box until I upgrade my alternator. This probably won't stress the amp too much. I plan go get some Z4 10's or 12's in a month or so.
The D1200 is about the biggest battery I can fit. If you have any other suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated! Here is a link to the battery and alternator I am planning on buying:
Battery XS Power D1200 12-Volt Deep Cycle AGM Power Cell Battery
Alternator: DB Electrical - ALTERNATOR HIGH OUTPUT 220 Amp 2.8L S10 TRUCK 92 93 & GMC SONOMA
If you know of a cheaper/better alternator that would fit on a 2.5L Pontiac Fiero engine, please let me know!!! Thanks //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
