Brax setup

[johnsahl]

Hi all,

I am about to start putting in a Brax X2400 to run my four doors and a Brax X1000 for my subwoofer, but I am a little unsure if I should opt for a new AGM battery, or just keep the standard 100Ah battery already there?

Hi, Welcome to the forum.
Do you plan on doing more engine off listening to the stereo?

A bigger battery is just going to give you more engine off time.
I would just get a good reliable battery, that meets or slightly exceeds what the car requires.

How is your charging system?

[johnsahl]

Thank you. Charging system is almost new, battery as well.

Not planning alot of off engine time.

My system is: iPad, HRT iStreamer, Audison Bit Ten D, Brax amplifiers, Mundorf caps, Alpine SPR-60C speakers and a Hertz Mille ML2500 sub

I honestly wouldn't bother with replacing the battery.
The only thing I would do, is do theBig 3 for your wiring and you should be OK.

Thanks.. I already did Big 3 as well, and will hopefully have time to install this weekend!

Started replacing the old amps and building frame for the new ones

[Chris from Washington]

wow this is going to look nice.

be sure to add the pics of your build to your garage, that way they don't get lost in the forum.

[johnsahl]

I will look at uploading them there when I am done.

Placement of caps, any reasons not to put them here?

[Chris from Washington]

I think that would be OK.

Car Audio Power Capacitors

Got a little more done tonight, and tomorrow the caps are going in as well. Have been fiddling with the mount in order to have them sitting firmly in that position..
