I'm lookin to see how big of a upgrade I need on my 99 Blazer.

I'm going to be getting a 1500 Watt amp and I know that seems to be alot of the electrical side.
I'm 17 , so I'm kind of on a budget.
so info would be helpful.

Also what is the specs on the stock amp alt. and battery in the blazer?

thnx for your answers.

 

What amp do you plan to get? Is that power for the entire system or just subs? You'll most likely want to do the alternator first and the battery last. 1500 watts i'd see how the stock alternator handles it first and upgrade as necessary.

 

thats total
what type of alt should i upgrade to?

 

i agree with mr blazer. just get it installed and see how your alt handles it, i have a 1500 watt amp on my stock alt and battery and it can handle it pretty good. i have been running it for about a year and just now starting to see some affects on it. you can check your local autoparts store and see what high out put alt they carry

 

sounds good,
thanks for input X

 

no problem

 

Is 1500 the "RMS" wattage or "Peak" Wattage?

 

well lets see.
2 800 watt RMS subs
1 1500x1 RMS amp
and i know that RMS is what its constently ran at.
so yeah

 

you will be fine, mine is 1500 rms not peak so youshould be fine

 

k good.
also i had a question.
does rap sound better if its in a ported or sealed?
