[QUOTE="Mudflap, post: 8822778, member: 686701"] He actually should fine on stock electrical. My friend who has the 10's version runs them on 1200 watts RMS no problem, even at idle. He has a stock and original 90 amp alternator in a 19 year old car with a basic battery. The subs won't be getting 1200 watts most of the time anyways due to impedence rise, the fact that music isn't a strait sine wave, and that the battery acts as a buffer. The only way it wouldn't work if the alternator is bad and/or if the battery is bad. However in that case, those should be replaced regardless. Look up the alternator that comes stock with that car, it should be adequate. I do reccomend the big 3 upgrade though in any case. You can get away without it, but I reccomend it even with a lower power amplifier. [/QUOTE]
