As of right now my electrical system goes as follows:

Battery: Odyssey Pc 1700

Alt: Excessive Amperage H.O. 200a

Wiring:4 awg to distro 1/0 from distro to battery - Big 3 wiring(1/0)

and it suits me fine for my diamond audio d6 300.4 and elevation audio 1500.1.

But im wanting to do a blow thru this summer and add 1 or two more Elevation Audio x 12"s which wrms at 1500 but can handle more power of course...so what uprades should i do if i wanted to run a 1500.1 to each sub? would i have more current draw from having seperate amps on each sub rather then having one single amp to produce that eq. power? just wonder because i was told i would need multiple alt, batts....i figured batteries....but would I be ok with a300 amp alt? was going to upgrade my current...

 
What I would do is purchase 43 2 farad capacitors, then i would ghetto rig a homemade amplifier to handle 12 Elevation Audio X 12" subs, using only a skill saw, phillips screwdriver, toothbrush and 4 boxes of toothpicks(250 count).
