[QUOTE="KevinG, post: 7291954, member: 617598"] So I had purchased a new Interstate battery in November 2008 for my Acura RSX. I've only had my system in my car for 8 months. Here is my setup: -nine.4, -nine.1 -JL 10" W6. -0 guage power wire -distribution block with digital readout -0 guage battery ground wire -0 guage alternator power wire -0 guage engine grounds I never ran the stereo with the car's engine off. So I came out of work and just see dash lights flickering and no starter sound at all. Got a jump start and got it to the shop I bought the battery. Turns out the battery was done for and alternator was good on their tester. Now with my old Buick that had a 2300x MTX amp pushing (2) 12" JL W3s, I would go through an alternator every year, after the 2nd or 3rd one, I installed a capacitor and my troubles were fixed. I am going to install a capacitor and would like recommendations for digital vs. non digital. What are decent brands? Rockford Fosgate, Phoenix Gold, etc? [/QUOTE]
