[QUOTE="ColterDC, post: 7391546, member: 612869"] The point is that if you have a good battery, even a stock battery, that holds it's charge and is working properly. Going out and spending $300 on some overpriced battery is not going to make any difference. You're better off spending that money on a HO alt. All of my systems (yes they're not 3000rms+ or anything) but they all run off stock batteries or regular autozone/napa/whatever replacements. It's the HO alternators that make the biggest difference. To many people see these pros with their 6+ battery set ups and think that's the cure to all their problems, when 99% of the reason they add all those batteries is because they need to run their systems with the car off. And don't worry, I didn't run home and do what you recommended. Unless you own certain pre 1980 cars, don't try and disconnect your battery after the car is running. Although early model cars do prove my point that once a car is running, the battery does become mostly obsolete in the electrical system. [/QUOTE]
