Improving voltage
#21
it will probably blow your mind to find out that as soon as there is a signal going to the speaker the impedance is no longer 1 ohm!!! lol, it actually goes up and down.
factory raiting of an amplifier is more of a guide line, mainly due to alot of changing variables when the amp is in use.

wow i guess i do have a lot of learning to do........ lol this i did not know.
A friend of mine has been doing this for quite a while now and was doing it out west for a while and he has been teaching me everything i know, but obviously i have LONG way to go.
so first i should look at testing my amp to see what kind of power i am getting at it's lowest voltage point and then if I'm not getting full power, i should look at a better battery and more wiring to bring it up?

if you have a factory battery now you should probably replace that right off the batt.
i would not get kinetik, get something good like NSB or Odyssey
where is the amp grounded to? if it's grounded to the frame that's a big issue. gotta ground it straight to the battery.
also doing the Big 3 will help sustain voltage when the vehicle is ON.

I have priced up an odyssey 1750 for a really good price that i can get right in my area.
The amp is not actually in my car right now but when it was, yes it was grounded to the frame, but that's something i will change when i put it back in and start testing, for this year.
Big 3 is already done all in 0 gauge wire.

ok well I'll start there, looks like i got some shopping to do lol
also what tools do i need to test the actual wattage the amp is producing? i know one is a volt meter, but i cant remember the name of the other one.
