1000 per sub ...volt meter goes in ur car so u can monitor voltage drop

it will also let that amp draw a lil more power causing bigger voltage drops

Soo basically the big 3 is a positive and negative.

yes it lets u get the most fro. m your amp and help keep strain off urcars electrical but at tge same time if ur drawing more than ur car can handle its a downfall and wil lmake the dimming worse if u dont get a good batt under the hood and possibly another in back

I don't have any dimming at all unless I'm running full tilt.. Of course I'm only running about 2000w right now and have a battery that's about a year old

Back to my original question, when I have 2 amps hooked up.. Should I get battery in trunk than? Or just upgrade the alternator instead of a new battery in trunk..

Or just do big 3 and call it.

would do the big 3 and replace the battery up front with a good agm one and then go from there..also buy a digital. volt meter to mount inside car

more than likely ur voltage drop and dimming.lights will get worse if u only.do the big 3
