[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8781143, member: 614752"] Don't feed the trolls. Stetsom has a video of these making 4000W "peak/burst" on the dyno, and while that's probably unrealistic to see in your car it should be able to make rated power. That said, you should be setting gains with the amp loaded (subs connected). You may want to use a Y splitter to get signal to both RCA inputs in your amp, and default sub level setting on that head unit might be attenuated so you can experiment with that. IF things sound distorted at any point here you have reached the limits of something so don't push that for too long. Also I do not think that just 1 extra battery + stock alternator is going to be adequate to really feed 3000W amp. Try to read your system voltage when you are actually playing music hard. [/QUOTE]
