Need help!

you dont need that 20 farad cap! bloody hell, you have any idea how much power that is? the arc of a cap that large could blow off a finger. you're looking more in the range of 2 fared, maybe 2.4-3 if you want some room. I have this in my system
http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8248_Absolute+KITCAP2507.html 2.4 fared, it's nice. and comes with tons of extras to help save ya a buck on instalation. I really like mine, i broke off the plastic plate that covrs the bottom but thats because i have **** floating around in my trunk.


the other stuff...sure sounds good, i'd use a rocker fosgate amp with a RF sub at least, especily if your spending the money, thats a nice sub. good power, and good SQ, and it'll hit nice, but with that kicker amp you wont get exactly what it can do out of it. not to mention, you'd never be able to wire a dual 2 ohm sub down to 2 ohms, you'd need a dual 4 ohm sub, wired in parallel, you want this amp.

it'll be perfect for your sub, and it's very under rated, your looking around 1100 watts rms, and with that sub wired in parallel, you're set down to a 1 ohm load. just make sure your installer knows you want it wired for a 1 ohm load. make sure you check it with a DMM once they do the install, to make sure they aren't stupid. some installers are pretty dumb.

 

No you do NOT need a cap. If your lights are dimming you need either another battery or high output alternator, or both. Using a capacitor is like putting a band-aid on a gunshot wound. Though I'm going to say you may not have any problem at all, you aren't running a TON of power but you need to run the big 3 with 0 gauge to help with power flow and charge then determine how the electrical is holding up. For wiring knukonceptz is great wire at a great price.

 

nah, caps are very usefull in a punchy system, even at 1000 watts, thats allota power being pulled out of the system, thought your right idealy a new batery\alt and or both is always properly, a cap can very much help keep up, worked in my case, i have over 1500 watts in my car with only 75 amps being pushed, with 1 single battery, and that cap, and it keeps up fine, a major thing a cap does it help keep voltages stable while on punchy music, or even constant draw for that matter, because whats happening when your lights dimming is your loosing voltage, meaning your amps are also switching internaly to the power lose, adding a cap will allow it to remain more stable. i can stay at 13 volts out of the 14.4 from the system with my week alt with the cap i recommended.

but don't go big with the cap thinking it means more room. its not an alt or a battery, you're just capable of adding more, but it makes no difference to the efficiancy if your only drawin 1200-2400 watts.

 

Seems you are headed in a good direction. Just make sure you order some extra 0 gauge to run the Big 3. As far as H/O Alt, yeah you probably will. Do you know the output of the stock alternator?

Also, what voice coil configuration are you going for in the XXX?

 

As for where to find a SAZ-2000D, I guess you'll just have to be looking out for one on the SSA forum. An alternative, and a great amp itself, would be the AudioQue AQ2200D

 

heh, i think you're getting to into it, you don't really need to go that big, but if you insist, than that stuff should work for ya, i'd think you'll be happy with that rocker fosgate 1000 rms i showed you. if you want the 2000-2500 watts rms, i'd go with http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_17683_Rockford+Fosgate+Power+T2500-1BD+-T25001bd-.html and get 2 or 3 of those subs you linked in your first post. and you'll be blown away..quite physically.

 

i dont know the specs of the 15" version of the T212D2, if i were you, i'd stick with that T212D2 12" and get that 1000 watt amp i recomended. you'll be very happy with it, you're getting to into it, you need to mentain sanity and practacality when building a system. you're not doing a show car, nore do you need to be top dog in town. you just need to be happy and content as you drive down the road with the sound of your system

 

I'd go with the 1000d or the 1200D, you're not going to find a decent single 15 that'll run 1800 watts rms with out a large buck. so, i'd personly go with the saz-1000D. but realy thats all up to you, you're asking us to pick dolors to dolors, at this point your picking good gear, we realy can't tell you exactly what to get with out telling you what we want. you need to figuire it out on your own, but still again.. that rocker fosgate sub you picked with that 1000 watt amp, and you'd be dandy. i'm very stuck on that for you because genraly your first picks are the ones you end up coming back to in the end. other than that, good luck!

 

i would buy a second battery instead it will supply your amp with the amperage needed for heavy bass notes; have you done the big 3 yet?

 

I 100% agree with Pedro. If your gunna spend some serious money, please do it right. That RF cap appears to be very expensive. Money would be better spent on an additional battery and the Big 3 upgrade, actually, doing that would most likely be less expensive and give you far better results than a cap.

As for a premade enclosure, I have no idea who makes a good one, i suggest to you sir that you find a VERY reputable shop and have it built. An educated installer can build a proper enclosure to best suit your needs!

 

I understand Dase..

As for a battery, heres what I will tell you...Others may disagree, but I have done this a "few" times... Read this

If done as it reads, any quality standerd lead acid battery will do a good job....you DONT need a" optima spiral dry cell never needs water and can fly in fighter jets battery".....a standerd automotive battery will do a fine job. If ya wanna pay extra for a "high end" battery...go for it but it aint needed!

 

hell i just installed a 3rd battery in my truck, and i only have 900 watts to my sub and 100 watts to my mids.
