You cannot effectively drive 1000w (RMS) amps using standard 12V battery supply. I have tried every trick in the book and you cannot maintain 14V for more than 10 minutes with the volume cranked up. I have now added a second high output alternator hooked up to a small battery in the back and two 2 farad caps. This goes straight to my Alpine MRD100 mono block amp, what a sound, sets off car and shop alarms continualsy!!! -------------------- |

I am told that a fuse drops a volt due to resistance? am I right? I did a little test on my "cheap" dist block and found a 0.01 volt drop across my main fuse (120A). That was with a low current tho, things will probly heat up at high current but I doubt it will result in a whole one volt drop. -------------------- ----------------------6GC's FIRST V6----------------------
