Question about Phoenix demo setup

Hello, I was told by my rep to get some help from Morgan on this forum. I am setting up a demo car, which is my 95 Mustang Cobra, for the shop I work at. The speakers I will be using are 3 sets of the elite 6 1/2 components. One set in the doors, one in the kicks, and a pair in the back facing forward. The rear speakers will be made in the fiberglass sub enclosure in the back. I am also doing three of the Ti2 10s d2 in a ported fiberglass enclosure where my back seats where; facing into the cab. I am currently upgrading my charging system and will be able to handle the current draw from the system. I am looking for some advise with the amp situation. I want everything to have plenty of power, and was thinking of doing a 1500.1 on the subs and a 800.4 on the highs. I want to make sure that that would be adequate without being overkill. If there is another set of amps that would work please let me know. Thanks again and any input from people with similar product would be appreciated. Thanks ahead of time for the help!!

Looks good buddy. What kind of alternator setup did you decide to go with?

I went down to my local alt rebuild shop and went over the options with him. He rebuilt it to 200A, can't remember what he charged but it ran my previous system with two diamond audio D9 800.4s with no problem and they were fairly large class a amps.

I have quite a bit of motor work done, and my current pulley configuration is robbing some power. I am debating on going with a stinger or having a local shop build mine. Those door panels are coming along nicely.

mine isn't stock much anymore either and if you are running underdrive pullies that is the first thing I would say to take off if you are concerned about voltage/current.

Yeah I have the stock altenator, crank, and waterpump pulleys to put back on. I don't see me going to the track much where I live now.

I had pullies and the only good thing about them for me was that I bought them used and was able to sell them for the same price I got them for. I know alot of people claim they did not hurt their ride at all but it was not my experience at all. IMO you will not feel the loss in hp but your voltage and temps will be normal and not such a concern. I have trickflow heads/cam and custom gauges to read all my info from.
