Im actually trying to do the same thing in my man cave, and im wondering if id need 6 power supplies to power the radio, 4 amplifiers, and a DSP? ive thought about an alternator running off an electric motor? Just not sure how safe that would be? Any suggestions would be awsome. Thanks

@@cuddles6569 one of the front pins, I think 34, can be linked for load sharing. I would look into that. You could use fewer supplies through a power distribution block.

Have you experienced any humming or ground loop associated interference noises when using these hp ac/dc supplies with car audio. Why have you moved the power on jumper wire since your earlier videos. Thanks

No audio noise whatsoever with the HP server power supplies. I initially tried one of those LED power supplies and there was lits of humm. I've used both methods for startup, both the single juper wire and the two wire method with the resister. I haven't noticed a difference with either one. As far as installing an on/off switch, better to do that on the power cord than the jumper wire. Some circuitry is active whenever power is supplied to the psu whether jumped or not. The terminals will not be active unless it's jumped though. Hope that answers your questions.

Thanks for the video. Somewhere I read that you have to be very careful when drilling through the PCB because there are internal traces running in a middle layer between the large gold-plates pads. Did you take any particular precautions to prevent the drill from cutting through those? Obviously your unit worked afterward.

The lugs are from Home Depot. I bought the 8 gauge version. I used a standard Dewalt bit with a point on the tip to keep it from wandering. Size was to match the thread diameter of the machine screw. Washer and nut to fit the machine screw.

You may have your amp gains set too high. Make sure you are running a wire from the power antenna/remote turn on from your head unit (usually blue or blue and white) to the remote terminal on the amp.

Dude, that Rockford 800x4 is a bloody nice amp if you can keep it cool, and the Alpine M65 is one of my most favorite amps I've ever owned, its absolutely tiny and never gets hot and it has *tons* of balls. I *really* dig those copper terminals you have used for the output on the PSUs, I really want to find some! Nice setup!

I can confirm, I have the 1400w platinum rated version and I modified it to output 14v and I draw 100A off it (its rated 12v 120A) and the fan is always almost silent which is amazing because its tiny maybe 40mm and you would think it would scream it's head off but it doesn't.

Use a bit that is the same or slightly larger diameter than the screw you intend to use. I used a hand drill and a bit with the point on the tip that keeps the bit from wandering. Use machine screws with a head larger than the hole in the lug. You'll want a nut and washer on the ottom side.

At 110 VAC the max output of these power supplies is 75 amps. If planning a system, add the amperage of the fuses in your amplifiers and multiply by 10. If you're at or below about 600 you should be good with one of these power supplies.

This power supply can put out 75 amps of DC power with 110 AC input. You would have to know how many amps your amplifier would pull. My guess is if you drive it hard then no, but if you're easy then yes. Two of these on the same home circuit at max power would be close to the limit. I have my two on separate circuits.
