okay....so ive been thinking alot...and i really want to get Jl audio subs.
i want to get W7. now im either gonan get three 10's or two 12's they will be w7's and i have yet to decide what amp to get. my only question is how hard will three 10's actully pound? i want to be able to atleast pound a little....like so you cna hear me coming from a lil bit away. i know the 12's will be much louder and pound more, but i really want to get that tight clean punchy bass so any feedback would be great! --------------------  KB |

so you're telling me the alternator switches? it decides to play for the other team? put a voltage meter on it... the battery is 12.5volts standing, 14+ charging... the current comes from the battery, not the alternator, alternator charges that's all, yeah 600 watts is the general rule of thumb for us who do this professionally, now theres always factors to consider but thats the general rule...

When the accessories do not require full power from the alternator, then part of its output is used to charge the battery. So yes, it "switches". If you are implying that the current to operate your accessories comes from your battery when the car is running, then I have an experiment for you. With your car running, unhook your battery. Do your power windows still work? Does your radio? So you are saying that 600 watts instantly requires a cap? Is that RMS or peak? Is this 600 watts based on a class A/B amp, a class D amp, or maybe a true class A? You specified something about the requirement being based on voltage before. What if I have an amp that draws 100 amps of current?
