[QUOTE="mendon mafia, post: 5864878, member: 584590"] Adding Batteries should definitely help with voltage drops. Its not like hes playing 3k tones all day long (i hope not at least) so the alt should have plenty of time on average to charge the batts up to a reasonable voltage. i used to only have a 200 amp alt and stock battery and my voltage used to dip into the high 10's at full tilt. added an spv70 voltage never dropped below 11.5 added a second spv70 voltage stays in the 12.5-13 range all day long at full tilt. Im running an at3000.1d @ .5 ohm so about 4k+ rms. but i never play tones, only music so on average i probably only draw about 2000 watts continuously. but my alt has no problem charging the system as long as i dont play it full tilt for hours/days on end on bass heavy tracks. but to answer you question about why you didnt gain anything, Make sure all your connections are tight including your grounds and all wires associated with your charging system. if that dos not help then your batteries are probably not holding a charge and should be replaced.
