[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8284614, member: 576029"] you cannot escape voltage drop. where there is current, there is voltage drop. simple as that. as long as we are limited to alternators in the front and amplifiers in the rear, voltage drop will always be a problem. 12V batteries will never be capable of helping maintain 14V. only a very large cap bank can help maintain ~14V. battery banks are only capable of maintaining their float voltage: 12.5-12.8V or so. if you want a 12.5V system, buy a bunch of batteries. if you want a 14V system, buy a H.O. alt and cap bank.
