Battery Upgrade ?

[chevyblazer]

If I get a better battery up front or even a second one next to my amps, am I going to have to get a H.O. alt as well. I have a 100 amp stock alternator right now, but I don't really want to upgrade it since I don't know how much longer I am going to have this truck but I'll have it for at least a year so I don't want to hurt it, or my music, either.

you need to include additional info, namely what kind of power are you running?

It all depends on what kind of amps you're running....what are they?...you may be fine with just a good battery in the back..

here's a link to my next planned set-up http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=365170

but the amps are going to be JL audio hd750.1 amp for my sub

and a then somewhere around 450-600 4 channel amp for my comp set and coaxial speakers--or-- a 2 channel amp for my component and running the coaxials off my HU as well as the tweeters.

and then have my pair of 4 x 6s run off of my H.U.

Dont worry about the Alternator, just get new battery like an Optima
