Re: Question about voltage drop.


Which one are you gettting? On CA, a guy was having a group buy on tsunami rds9100. Its over now but he was selling them for $70 shipped. I dont think they are much more than that on ebay.

Re: Question about voltage drop.


So I got a battery for my dmm. I checked the voltages at the battery with the car off and with it on. With the car off the battery was sitting at 12.7v with the car on at idle I was at 14.07v. at the amp with the car on at idle I am at 14.04v. Thats with my 85A alt.

When setting the gains, and reading the voltage. What do I set the DMM to, to get the correct reading? My target V is 65v. I set the dmm at 200v and when I tried to set the gain using a 50hz tone, I couldnt get it past 13v with the gain maxed. What am I doing wrong? I followed the tutorial on elemental's site.

Re: Question about voltage drop.


and you are playing the volume at 3/4? that is strange. get another dmm and try it. same thing happened with my friend's. so he used my dmm and it worked.

also when you connect the subs to it, does it bump like it should?
