[QUOTE="RAM_Designs, post: 5449488, member: 566575"] Music is dynamic, like you said, but because of that it's easy for an alt to keep up because of the dynamic nature of music. Having moments of "down time" from bass gives the alt time to recharge the batts. Tones on the other hand, demand more from the alt since there are no opportunities(during the tone) for the alt to recharge without a demand for current at the same time. Not to mention when I'm playing tones trying to throw up a high number, I'm clipping my amp much more than I ever would normally on music, and as a result drawing even more amperage than normal. I once did a series burps one cycle at a time from 40-55hz, back to back and about 3 seconds long for each, and my amp never saw less than 12.7V, and that was with the truck just idling. You seem to have the concepts reversed. [/QUOTE]
