[QUOTE="spoonraker, post: 2227834, member: 570956"] I have a 2000W Cadence moboblock amp powering an Audiobahn Eternal series 12'' sub in a ported box. Sony deck powering my speakers, standard 6x9, 3 inch doors and tweeter setup. It's not the best, but it sounds great and hits hard. My problem is ever since I had a car alarm installed it doesn't seem to hit as hard. If I have a sustained bass tone it seems to still have the power, but the initial punch isn't there. I listen to a lot of music with punchy bass lines like this so I really notice a difference. Also the headlights are dimming with the bass. Could this be caused by the car alarm taking power from the audio stuff? What would you suggest I do? Would doing the big 3 fix this problem? I've tried tuning my amp, thinking maybe a knob just got jarred or something but everything is dead on. In case it matters the car alarm is a 2-way paging alarm with remote start, trunk pop, and all the other options. [/QUOTE]
