Hey everyone!
Just got my sound setup all put in (nothing huge) Whats the best way to secure a 12" Sub box in the boot? So its easy to access the spare tyre etc. Also, when i have my sub cranking at night (headlights on full beam) they tend to have a slight flicker with the beat. Could this be from a bad earth? Or do i need to upgrade my battery? Or even my alternator? -------------------- ![]() |

This same equation in mind, a 2400 watt amplifier would be hooked up to 12 volts. 2400watt / 12 = 200 amps. Annnnd that would be why I have not seen a 200 amp circuit in a car... No intention to make my ears bleed. I'm running a 800 watt in my car atm, maybe 600...can't recall just swapped it. Either or, I don't have a cap, all stock alt...fresh standard battery. No issues. Peak power is a useless number. Its like saying all Celica GTs are 500 peak horsepower. Because the 5sfe engine block is capable of withstanding 500 horsepower before it literally cracks in half. In reality a Celica GT is 135hp, RMS or continuous if you will. Saying you have a 2400 watt amp or a 1000watt sub means the maximum amount of energy physically it can handle before you risk damaging it. |
