The most effective way to run 12v ideally is straight from the source without busbars or distribution blocks but nit always possible obviously. But next best is to get muti-output terminals for your lithium/AGM batteries and again avoid distribution blocks or busbars and have straight complete runs without any roadblocks between 12v source and amplifier. But distribution blocks or busbars work but you will always lose a little something having to use them. But in some builds the fact it simplifies running to multiple sources (amps ect) is totally worth the small voltage/amperage loss! Even now I'm currently running buspars in my build. I also run 3 amps so simplicity and less headache for me 100% worth it for this build lol. But first video from this guy I have seen on here, very much enjoyed seeing how the bass hunt day unfolded from garage to stores lol ill definitely subscribe and check back in!
The clip light will not always blink if you tune them correctly. Lol. Taramps, and most other Brazilian style amps, only need about .9 to 1.2 input voltage on the RCAs to make power. Anymore than that and they will clip with little or no gain. Adjust your input voltage properly and set the gain clean with an Oscope and that little clip light will never blink... 🤷♂️
@phatboi1282 how do I adjust the input voltage? My amp keeps clipping when I turn my radio up higher someone told me I could be getting too much input voltage, but I don’t know how to fix that
@@MM-ej3df Should have a sub level on your head unit. Under speaker level. Turn it down into the negative numbers. You can check the voltage with a multimeter. Touch the positive to the tip of the rca and the negative tonthe shield.
@@phatboi1282 I don’t have a sub level setting I’m using my factory stereo. I have 2013 Ford Explorer, im getting my RCA’s off of a line-output converter
Jp amps sounds terrible. Subs mabye, but they have a ton of noise. P.s. clear plastic lets all radio interference through. That bottom cover is doing you no favors. I bought a jp95 and nothing but regrets
Hey boss im new to the Taramps game. I have the same truck. 4 skar 8s running about 400 rms each sub. I have 2 XS Power batteries on the stock alternator and im still clipping. I have a taramp bass 3k so im wondering what i can do to stop clipping. Im nowhere near maxing out the amp so I know theres more i need to do. I still see 9-10v when i clip so im forsure drawing lots of power. Would i need an alternator upgrade since my volts go down so much?
I'm running in to clipping problems on mine I'm running a big boss 3k only time I don't clip is with my gain all the way down what's getting me is there is a big jump with bass on my radio form 30 to 32
i have the same amp running dual 0 gauge direct from its own lithium 100ah battery about a foot away. i have turned my rca on the head unit right down too and also have my rca bass knob at half and it still clips at like half its rated power... my subs want 2000 rms each minimum so thought it was the perfect amp for the 2 subs but cant even get that without clip light flashing. anyone have any other ideas? good video still!! cheers
@@mouse_trap. thanks i do already and have dual 0 AWG all way from battery to amp off small buss bars and through a smd fuse block about a foot long distance in total too?
ok so i took this kinda into consideration for what i got i have big 4 under hood and 1 run of 0 to the back into fuse then to the ds5100 xs power i from there have 2 grounds a frame and a body then one that goes to amp and same on positive 0 in and then going straight to amp i have stock alt and the amp is a taramps bass 3k the clip light use to go crazy so i upgraded the 4g from battery to amp with 0 to a 0-4g reducer and boom problem solved now she only clips on them really low lows. thank you so much! in time i will upgrade alt but this should do for now till i get her
Great video mouse! Straight up . I was trying to figure the best way to wire my yukon and my 3 18s build. Always had problems with clipping from scar kicker. Anything I used. This should fix all of it. Also I wanted to ask you have tou ever had any of the stedson products? Supposed to be a few people who were working with taramps and did there own thing. I want a px2 taramps dsp bit stedson has a version too. What do you think of their 8 channel dsp in a 02 yukon with 8vto 10 channels or 11. 3 subs. Or the device itself?
Amps ground to the chassis and nothing else and it doesn't matter what brand it is. If you set your gains right you won't be clipping it's not the equipment it's the installer
I go to Tampa every year for Christmas. I'm from there. I'm going to check this store out next time I'm there. I'm kinda new to Taramps. Have 2 smart bass 3ks going to 2 Avatar stu 12s. Gonna go with the smart bass 5ks soon. Also maybe try using ferrules. I get the 18mm ferrules on ferrules direct. You won't have to worry about loose strands like on that one terminal. Just a suggestion
Get the Gravity GR-EQP11 Digital Bass Machine. All my friendsa laughed at me when i got one. Now they all have one. The price will go up once people catch on to them.
I gotta drive 45 minutes for some 0 gauge terminal connectors, those things are hard to find unless you order them. and I'll never order anything when it comes to subs I want my shit asap
Not to be a total smart ass but those are most likely tin platesd copper. You have to do a scratch test or a magnet test if you think it's solid tin or something else ferrous.
@@TellyKennyButters lmao no I have 2 extra batteries a 290 alt and zero gauge lmao but ok in my over 20 years of car audio I've only had 1 amp catch fire and it was that taramps and it was a 1 ohm version I had at a 2 ohm final load but say what u want when u have no idea what I have or what I'm running ok lmao

Already knew you was going to Live Wire! That's the spot! My brother Joe does all the installs there! You in my hood!! 💪🏻
You should pick up an oscilloscope and make sure the input and output signals aren’t clipping, from the head unit back to the amp output.
@titoham-DCXLs oh ok lol, that’s why I run Fosgate, tho I do have Skar in my truck that’s not bad.
How do you do that?

To distribute the power effectively is a good idea to run all the power wires to a buss bar, from the buss bars to the alt + and -

@titoham-DCXLs awesome ill double check that and fingers crossed thats all it is. cheers for the help 👌
Are you planning on getting a Timpano eq for the outside speakers as well? (Just asking) MTG stand up!
Oh ya most definitely!
Just curious, why do u choose an eq over a dsp?

Check RCA voltage set mine around 1.8 - 1.9 runnin a smart 8 on 2 custom zv5 15s and its a beast of an amp just a bit finicky to setup
How do I adjust my RCA voltage
Buy a Korean board amp brother you will love it big difference also do lithium maybe some yinlongs a small cmax bank

Ya wiring is my thing I love it..have a blessed Sunday big dog

Mine grounds to my big ass lithium bank, that bank grounds to thr chassis. No issues whatsoever, more than one way to skin a cat past 5k rms 😂
You still using agms?

How do you run multiple subs with one terminal on the amp that has speaker inputs wires? Do you run the subs in series or parallel?
Any product that people steady complain about is a product not worth buying no matter how much cheap power they are supposed to make.
I gotta drive 45 minutes for some 0 gauge terminal connectors, those things are hard to find unless you order them. and I'll never order anything when it comes to subs I want my shit asap
Or Amazon but 🤷🏾♂️
Thats a bad ass store
And they got everything in stock 🔈🔈🔈😬
whats the name of the beat
Everything you add to your system ads more noise and puts you closer to clipping
Not to be a total smart ass but those are most likely tin platesd copper. You have to do a scratch test or a magnet test if you think it's solid tin or something else ferrous.
Yes a bigger alternater will make a bid difference
