    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.

    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 -

      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... 🤷‍♂️

    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?

    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?
