When i say a huge load i mean the amp aswell as several other accessories in the car and due to its age it probably is only really putting out like 60 amps so overall my electrical system is overloaded.

I am driving an older subaru with lots of accessories and only a 90 amp alternator thats 10+ years old and a bad battery, i definitely am not experiencing any clipping its just a small electrical system with a huge load on it and i am just trying to see what the best upgrade would be. I am...

another option i have is to get an optima yellow top and use it as my main battery till my redtop comes in and then put my redtop up front and my yellow top in the back with my sub and amp

nothing huge, just 500 watt digital amp and soon to be 400 watts for speakers but my lights still dim a little on long hard hits

Wiring them down is definitely key. with that amp the way you have them wired you are getting 650 watts total so only 325 watts per sub and the subs are rated for 1000 watts each. when you wire them down your amp will push 2000 watts making it 1000 watts per sub which is exactly what your subs...

With my current setup do you think it would be worth having a dedicated battery along with my 35 farad capacitor or should i just return my second battery?

Last week I ordered an optima red top for my car, it is scheduled to come in in another week. This morning on my way to work my cars battery died so later today i am going to buy another optima red top locally. Currently i only have a 90 amp stock alternator however in the near future I will be...

its going to be a birthday/ graduation gift in a couple weeks so the money is non-negotiable but I need to decide quickly.

do you have a reason why or just because you like the brand? I want the real best choice not the best brand.

I am looking to get an amplifier to power a polk mm6501 component set. they are 2.7 ohms and they will take 125 rms. I would like to get an amp that is either just right or has a little headroom. the amp only needs to be 2 channels or 4 bridged. I was looking at one of these: Rockford Fosgate...

I would get the polk mm6501's they are like $175 for the pair. I will be getting a set in a couple weeks and ill let you know how they are.

did you mean for these to go to my other thread? I would hope you dont expect for them to be to run a 1000 watt rms subwoofer?

I have 50 holding 800 rms so i dont see how it wouldnt.

I have an mbq component set currently installed and I am not that impressed with them are their amps any better?

What are peoples thoughts on power acoustik mono amplifiers. they seem very reasonable price.
