[QUOTE="kashikis, post: 5607685, member: 566855"] I recently upgraded my audio system and have a few things left to do. So I would like some advice on a few things. My current audio system: Power-Aukustic PTID-5800 DVD player CDT Audio CL-62CF Component set Set CDT Audio CL-6CF 6.5s Pioneer GM-6300F (60 x 4) (2) RE SE12 subwoofers HiFonics Brutus 1208D for subs (1200W) I have 2 aug wire running to my battery and eveything grounded nicely as suggested here. Everything works pefectly fine as is, however if I push the volume higher than half way I start to getting battery drain and light dimming. I will obviously need a bigger battery, but is that it? I'm not made of money and can't drop another $1000 on two high power kinetic batteries and a ho alternator. I don't think I'm pulling enough power to warrant buying all of that. I realize that's the ideal scenerio but I don't plan on upgading my stereo as it's loud enough for me. This is my daily driving vehicle if that plays a factor. From what I've seen and read I think I could get away with using a yellow top deep cycle battery and proper grounding. But I would like some additional opinions from you guys involving aveage priced brands of anything I will need. Thanks in advance. Nick [/QUOTE]
