Master Plan for mt new stereo

[Dave K]

The front bow speakers MUST be on a level control so I can turn them down without turning down the other cabin or tower speakers. I will have a ton of questions, and I am sure this isn't quite correct but I would appreciate all the help I can receive from you guys. I am not sure how to post this jpeg in a higher quality though, but I can email jpeg to you if you would like to look it over for me.

My main focus is to get the wiring schmatic correct and then I will worry about all the settings.

I do have a couple of questions:
1.What is the best way to split a signal?
2. The wet sounds 420 will be at the driver helm. When I run rca's to the amp, do I have to be concerned about them being close to one another and create interference? I suppose I will be having (6) 3 sets of rca's from WS-420 to amps.








Battery hook up


1. Do I run 1- 0 gauge wire from batteries to a splitter close to amps, and then 4 gauge from splitter to amps? I am not really sure what the best is to fuse?

Rather than a syn-4 for the 2 rev 10's.... would it make any sense to get a sync-2 just in case I want to add a couple of speakers in the future? Do you really think I will need to add another pair is the question?

If you think that adding a 2nd pair of Rev-10 is in the near future, then go with the Wet Sounds Sinister series SD-2, or plan on swapping the existing Syn-4 for the SD-2 at the time the 2nd pair of Rev-10 are added.

With 4 amp and an EQ, you will want to trigger a relay with the head-units blue remote turn-on and let the relay carry the load of the 4 devices.

You need to have some primary circuit protection on that trunk line right off that battery bank if that B+ trunk is going to be more then 12". It can be either a fuse holder or a circuit breaker. With the right fuse holders and/or non-fused distribution blocks, you will only need a single B+ and single GND trunk line from the battery bank.

I didnt realize it should be a sd-2 and not a sync-2. Big bucks to switch. I think I'll just leave extra room on the amp for that upgrade in the future. This way I can buy all the LED rings for my speakers and cupholders now LOL !!!!

P.S. I emailed the schematic to you for easier reading.

Significant investment now, but a single SD-2 is less then 2 Syn-4, takes less space to mount, less RCA cables and would be more efficient.

using a single jl audio xd 600/6 on your cabin speakers with a HD rlc set to control the bow speakers would be a one amp solution and would cut down your rca run to a single run rather than having all of the cascading splitters. Cheaper and cleaner.

Is this ok?

Battery---1.5ft 1/0 power cable---Tsunami TSFBW-ANL (with 250 amp fuse)---Approx 4ft 1/0---Tsunami TPFDB-4PG (1-1/0 in & 4-4ga out)---2 or 3 ft of 4ga to each amp?

Do I require a separate in line fuse between dist block and each amp?

For the "-" cable just run a 1/0 ga close to amps then a Tsunami TPFDB-4PG and 4 gauge from there to each amp?

Total fuses on amps total 245 amp.

revised plan is coming hahaha

hahaha. I guess with my back and forth decision it making you spin too?? Well this time 100% this is it for sure....maybe

With this set up it should push me over 2000 posts?!#$%?

[Dave K]

I guess my next question is how many batteries do I need??
