I've running the four speakers (3 ways) on one amp @ 125 watts each channel),the two subs ( 135 watts each ) on the other amp & got two channels free right now.
I bought the amps used in excelent conds,they are sony Xplode 550 watts each;didn't use the factory wiring,i runned the long way by adding new wiring all around the VX for all components,at 60% of power the VX shakes like a gelyou can clearly hear the music from out side.
Even though i love music pumping down the street i fall into the moderate group category.
Dakar was just the begining.
Yes thanks !
If wasn't because of the bunch of jerks always lurking to find a good deal breaking into cars i were put a nice NAV system at the upper DIN,but had to keep the set underlow by adding a cassette deck there,the digital EQ is located at the lower DIN & the 6-CD changer disguiss very well behind the center console thanks to its black color. All kenwood brand
see i went really crazy....i put a new panel up top where the stock radio goes to put switches in...for winches and lights....
then i moved the radio down to the place where the 6-cd changer goes along with modifying where the ash-tray and the cigarette lighter goes (see my gallery)...
it looks great..and it also keeps the theives from seeing the radio because it moves it down low...
Where did you run your ground to?
For the time being, I ran the amp ground to a paint-stripped/cleaned-up/dialectic-greased, front left of the four bolts that hold down the parking brake assembly.
It may not be optimal, but it was convenient and seems to be working fine. I had as many installers telling me that a body ground was fine, as I had installers insisting that a frame ground was necessary. I didn't feel like drilling a hole through the floor metal to affix the ground to the frame. I'm capable of doing it, I just didn't feel like it, and I used the conflicting opinions to support my complacency. All installers I spoke with, though, seemed to agree that the ground wire (4 gauge, in my case), should be kept as short as possible; no more than 9"-12".
