Exactly, but that's what i'm thinking about
Never saw the point of SPL, i always thought car audio was made to listen to...but that's another thread right there... |

i ran my SS 2000D on a stock alternator and a Track 11 plate battery for over a year and never had problems either with the amp or car... (the battery would only last about 6 months though..)
of course, i was always abit careful to not let the voltage drop to low below 12V... |

SPL is not about audio
SPL is all about the numbers
Just like drag racing as opposed to circuit
yuh car doh need to be pretty/have good cornering/have plenty whatever to drag. once it could stay in a straight line and get to the end very fast... yuh good.
in circuit racing there are many other factors.
understand now?
SPL is not for everybody, and for those that arent' into it... they will never get it.
It takes a certain level of dedication to turn a car into a big speaker box. |

Q is right pios....SPL is not for the everyday audio enthusiast and sometimes demands more than the usual from the competitior and his equipment...
Boom just wants to know if the amp can handle the strain of a 0.5 ohm burp
and since nobody knows for sure the answer will obviously be NO as it has not been tested yet and nobody want's to put up the paper in case the amplifier fails so end of discussion rite dey, the Atomic as far as "we" here in this ched know cannot go down to 0.5 ohm until proven.....
Boom purchase an amplifier u comfortable with, i don't think when you're doing a SPL vehicle you would want to have any doubts about the reliability of your equipment.. |

actually i spoke to some pple who compete and they say the atomic 5000d goes down to .5 as welll as the 1500d
my best bet would be to look at price and support ..i.e who u can call up and get instant help |

you can't be serious about SPL if u fraid to spend the money
because at the end of the day, equipment WILL fail, subs WILL burn.
either u in it or u not
and if nothing fail or burn... then you eh doin it right yet. |

yes it is... because imagine you are trying to squeeze every last watt of power...
you ARE going to strain the system
if nothing burn... there's more you can do
not so? |

| ^^^i dont think so ....are u aware that when someone breaks a record in IASCA they have to back it up 3 times before it becomes official???....if ure philosophy is true about u HAVE to burn/damage ure equipment in order to be at ur maximum potential then how do u expect to back up ure score if u burn everything down in ure 1st or 2nd attempt???? |

casper is right......
I think what Q is trying to say is that in the competition lane you will be pushing your system to it's limits and the probability does exist that something will damage or get burnt....it's a risk someone takes when they enter into SPL...
It's a risky & expensive sport...... |
