In the second picture, is that dual 1 awg inputs? What kind of alternator(s) are you planning on upgrading to so you can get the power out of that thing? What is that thing fused at? The only reason I ask is it is beyond me how someone powers one of those things to get 5000 watts rms. Heck even over 3500 watts rms would be hard to pull. I have done audio for years. I know from dealing with amps between 2000-3000 watts rms that draw b/t 200 and 250 amps, that they can and aubsolutely cut off due to low voltage. I say this even on dual battery systems, with 180 and 225 amp alternator upgrades, and caps. I have run those things and tried to make them hit when the voltage had dropped down down to 9 volts

yea dual 1/0 inputs, no idea on alt yet i know there will be a 300a one, dont know if im going to run dual alt yet or not: stock alt and then one for stereo
you have to provide fusing, they reccommend 500a fusing

Yeah...badass amp, but I guarantee you'll never see the "5,000 RMS"
Frickin' huge *** amp though, hah.
I used to run HiFonics amps, out of the 4 I used I had one that wouldn't run stable at 1 ohm as advertised, otherwise they were good amps.
For my next project/system I picked up a pair of Arc Audio amps. the 1500DR for my Brahma 15, and the 4150CXLR for my seperates. I can't wait to start the install next week :)
