For all the people who has helped me........Thanks a lot........almost there.....just ahve a few other questions.....as far aas hooking all these wires up.......what fun...

well I got rid of the 2300HCT amps, and the immortal subs....

A guy here in town has immortals in his car, and they sound great, but fom what he says....you can not play them all the time, they are mainly for competion use....which Im not doing....

well I went with the Audiobahn A2X600HQ Rack-Mount Style2-Channel

RMS Power Ratings:

  • 4 ohm stereo: 300 watts x 2 chan.
  • 2 ohm stereo: 600 watts x 2 chan.
  • 1 ohm stereo:1200 watts x 2 chan.
  • 4 ohm mono: 600 watts x 1 chan.
  • 2 ohm mono: 1200 watts x 1 chan.
  • 1 ohm mono: 2400 watts x 1 chan.

Audiobahn AW1508T 15"

  • 2000W RMS Power
  • Dual 2Ù Voice Coils
  • Protective Chrome Finish
  • 3" 4-layer Voice Coil
  • well Im got 3 of these instead of 4-12's. at least these will fit in my car...

    but I did a diagram on my pc, and it came out like crap.....

    but at the battery I have one inline fuse (300) then right before the CAP I have another inline fuse (200) then it goes to my cap. Then I have (2)0 guage going from my cap to my Dist. Block. .......that is as far as I got....The books I got with my amps.....says a lot of different ways to hook it up.......and to me that is like reading spainish...If someone could put all this in layman terms.......or maybe do a diagram  of you have time....and email it to me.....the best way to hook this up.......

    also would it hurt to get 3 of these amps, one for each sub?

    thanks a lot guys.....

    I'd look into a better brand than Audiobahn, but yes, if you want to spend the money, 3 amps that are 1 ohm stable would be best, because each speaker with both voice coils in parallel gives you 1 ohm. But I'd go for 1500W or lower amps if you do that. You can go with 3 of those 2400W amps but don't turn them past about 2/3 of max gain. And if you do get 3 of those amps, you will definitely need a very high output alternator. Hell, I'd say you should have a pretty decent alternator with just 1 of those amps.
