[QUOTE="Bass Xploder, post: 8703729, member: 679553"] Space isn't an issue, vehicle is a 15 ford explorer. I've had same amp running a jl 12 w7 with no problem but soon as I switched to the new subs, I noticed the issue with the engine rpm. If I'm driving, some songs can be full bass the entire song and some good ones cant. If I'm at a red light or sitting idle wether in drive or park, the engine rpms drop and rise as the big bass notes hit. I should have checked the voltage drop at the battery but made this thread while inside for the night. I'll check that tomorrow since I dont have an incabin volt guage or meter so this way I'll figure out where my current battery stands. I didnt think a cap would help in this situation since this issue arises without the additional amp. Big 3 kit is still being shipped so if it's the battery on it's way out, I'll be replacing that and the big 3 at the same time. Will do a ho alt if needed, but after those 2 I'll be adding an additional battery in rear to help out with the system. Any recommendations for a specific battery to go with in this scenario?
