voltage drop
well I have done the big three and have a new battery (~1month old), and I have been getting some pretty bad voltage drop with only 800watts. Just wondering if this is normal with a stock alternator and would there be any way to help out with the dimming? btw i got a PA a2400db amp

RE: voltage drop
well yea its a 1800 watt amplifier but I've got the gains set at 800 watts set with a dmm.

RE: voltage drop
? the gain isnt a power selector.

maybe he means he has the subs wired up to where he is only getting 800 watts to them. and he has the gain turned down.

yea I have the gains set to 800 watts on a 60hz test tone with a dmm. Im thinkin its my ground but I can't do much about it now its pretty nastyout.

RE: voltage drop
the gain is not a power setting

RE: voltage drop
see that doesn't make any sense to me... Because if you turn the gain down, less output which means less power consumption right? the amplifier isn't constantly consuming its max power correct?

RE: voltage drop
its called a clean signal, and a clipped signal, i believe.
power is created by the ohm load at the amp.
are your subs wired at 4ohms, 2, 1........8?...?

RE: voltage drop
yes blazing loud is right. your power depends on your ohm load. what subs do you have and what ohm load they wired up at
