I am sorry, but i haven't tried my Amp yet. Yea i know, i bought it awhile ago but i will try to install it in my car this year. Ps i don't know if it will run on the specifications you wrote, i don't know so much about installing amps or subwoofers so i'll get a friend to install the sound in my car.

I understand why you would have the amp turned down but........correct power wire will give clean signal to your subs which is more important than keeping your gains down.......so to answer your question buddy, it is OK but we don't agree with ok.....we need 0ga in that vehicle.......also look into getting an upgraded alternator "only if you plan on keeping the vehicle. ......, phill

It would run them but i would not, running sub-ohm builds put a massive strain on your electrical system. I would do the Big 3 upgrade+new alt and battery if your looking to run sub ohm.

4 gauge ok,but 1/0. would be better- multiple runs of it preferibly to a secondary battery in rear near amplifier.More power less voltage drop.

This amp is more than sufficient and is actually to powerful. So make sure you keep it turned down to protect your speakers from blowing. I have this amp running 2 15 hifonic brutis speakers and it is still almost to much power. I have a 8 ferit cap and it still makes my lights flicker a little bit when it's really pulling.

Definitely not. You need atleast 1 XS power d3400 under the hood, or as big as you can fit, and an xs power d3100 in the rear. Just get rid of the cap. I would also recommend upgrading to 1/0 gauge ofc copper wiring. I ran Rockford Fosgate 1/0 with mine and my voltage dropped into the 11.5s when my system hit even with a blockshakers 1050watt battery. In order to save money if youre on a tight budget you should look into getting 2 1050watt blockshakers batteries and just keep your stock battery up front. But be sure to run 1/0 gauge ofc!

I would not run that amp with anything smaller than 1/0 wire and at least 1 extra battery. That amp is very unstable at .5 ohms. I had one blow on me twice.

12.5 running amps but you have startup of 3000 or 25amps for a short period.

The amp choice is really up to you and how many subs and how are you going to wire them up. I have one 12" Type R 4ohm sub wired to 2ohm. Using a Hifonics Zeus 1800 watt mono amp. Assuming that the amp is "actually" capable of pushing 1800w at 1ohm. It should be pushing 900w to the Type R. It sounds amazing in the trunk of my 96 Impala SS. Go with the 4ohm sub if youre going to use two subs, wire them down to 2ohm and find an amp capable of pushing a solid 2000w. Amps will state total power at 1ohm, 2ohm will be half that.

Sorry, the amperage is too high for your needs. It could overheat what you are powering.

You don't have to, your device will only pull as much current as it can handle. The 1300mA is an upper limit, not a fixed value.

I used a boss 4000 watts hits hard for a cheap amp... Always have more power on amp then subs so you can hit hard it wont harm anything. Forget capacitors ... you need deep cycle batteries red optima .. one for alternator and one in trunk .. one amp per 12" .. Dobt forget to wrap ya doors and trunk with sound and heat barriers helps rattle .. Enclosed box best... for deep bass or open box for mid level

Yes as long as your total amperage does not spike over 30 amps you should be just fine. I run 3 50 watt radios off of one power supply. As long as you don't transmit on high power on two at the same time you should be ok.

Here, check this out. 8 gauge and 4 gauge are correct, depending on the distance the amplifier is from the battery. The closer it will be, the less resistance created, thus you can use smaller wire. Also, like others said, the terminals are 8ga on the amp, but you can also use adapters to go from 4ga wire to 8ga terminals. Stinger makes some nice terminals like this that I am using on my setup.http://www.crutchfield.com/S-81IQYmtv6S3/learn/learningcenter/car/cable_gauge_chart.html

I would consider this amp underpowered for your task. Look at its rms power and you should understand why.

12 VDC, 4.2W. I used an 8 cell AA battery pack for my use. You could use any DC power supply generating 12 VDC & able to supply .4 A or more. I tried it at 24 VDC. They run for about 30 sec. & seize up for some reason. So I would not suggest trying run them on much more than 12 VDC.

If by 4a you mean 4 amp current draw then this 12 amp hour battery could run in for a max of 3 hours. About half that would be more realistic unless the power draw was less with lowered sound levels giving reduced amp needs. I run a ham radio transceiver with mine which pulls about 1.5 amps on listen and 10-12 on transmit. I have used it for over 2 hours of mixed use and it was still going.

Just like amplifiers, when it comes to capacitors the quality is much more important than the #s printed on them. The 2 farad will be plenty because the RF is way higher quality than the competition. That is as long as you are using the correct wire gauge and have enough power coming out of your alternator. Otherwise the battery will drain and you'll notice dimming... for one thing...

At 4 ohms it 1200 watts. At 2 ohms its putting out 2600 and at 1 ohm your getting 4000 watts. Its a true 4000 watt amp. I am pushing a 15 inch massive audio comp sub with this amp and it has no problems at all moving it.

I use the 70.2 amp as my second amp to run my HT speaker lids. I run the 40.4 HT amp To run the fairing and rear pods on my Ultra. I have no problems with FM reception runningThe HD short boom audio antenna in the stock location. However it did interfear with my XM module reception. I had to move the XM antenna from inside the fairing to outside. I mountedIt on top of the front master cylinder cover. Blends in and nobody ever notices it there, works great! �Love Hogtunes stuff.

Yes this amp is capable of running a 4ohm bridged load. But to be honest with the low power rating on your subs it could be overkill to use the amp in bridge mode. It's pretty stout just running at 4 ohms a side. You could do high pass and low pass with the built in crossover and runs your tops ans subs on one amp. I use this for my bass rig and run a 4ohm load per side. It screams....
1773028
2 15s, yes im runnin 2 phantom 12s at 4 ohms great bass and zero stress on the amp or subs, i do suggest a power cap though

Well didn't look up specs but if your running 2 subs I wouldn't overrun the subs rms too much. I wouldn't put more than 1200 watts on them. Over powering even though they are underrated certain songs like jeezy will burn your subs. I am running 2 jlaudio jx1000/1 awesome amp. I blew my obsidian 18 with that amp. So they are 900 watts at 12v I'm running them at 32 hertz. Loudest system I have had. I would run 1 Rockford to two if that is 1250. I also run two batteries for the two amps. I think that is making all the difference running rf 3sixty.2 whole car is dymatted. Do 4 sealed. With the two amps. These subs sound better sealed. 4 sealed on 5000 watts will sound better than 2 ported on 5000. I do prefer my 32 hertz box but you can really see what they can do sealed. Better sq. Although the sq is flawless anyway. Best subs ever man for the money. Will eat an idmax
