Lol at sealed l7's!! They are Ported...I think at 36hz?? It's what ever the factory
One is...
Mono block is only running on 2 gauge..but I'm scrapping
That for 0...so I'll have zero from battery to boot to a distributor then to
Both amps...
Well it's tax time so I'll be doing the big 3 anyways...it may fix the problem
I don't have any gear to check voltage drops...do you just use a standard multimeter?
I may invest in one...
I think I covered all the questions?

Thanks for all the input guys
I'm just trying to get it all running good...no point
Having big subs if you have boot rattle and dimming
Headlights lol

you should set up a volt meter inside the car somewhere so you can see the voltage at all times, can get 1 for like 2 bucks on ebay lol, and yes you can use a multi meter to measure the voltage
