[QUOTE="SeanDub, post: 3051773, member: 568046"] you need to keep the voltage AT LEAST up around 12.5 to keep that amp from frying or burning up your stock alternator. Choice between alt or another battery? Get the alt; a battery is just another device for your stock alternator to charge. So for right now, be conservative with the volume knob and definitely do not play around without the car running, save your money, and get a solid 200a alternator from a reputable brand. Or get an amp with less current draw. I run my IA 20.1 @ ~0.5 ohm on a stock alt and small battery in the back and my voltage never goes below 13.5 if i'm not showing off. [/QUOTE]
