Need some advice

[CeleronXXX]

I'm doing a setup right now with two sa15s and jbl components. I already have a JL audio e4300 for the components which will be 110 x 4 @ 2ohms. My question is for the sub amp. I was planning on running an SQ2200, however I thinking with the extra draw of the jl amp I will be underpowered on my electrical. I have big 3 done and a yellowtop for the trunk. The only HO alt I can find for my car I like 700 and stock is 120 amp so I was hoping with the yellowtop to be alright. Should I go for a smaller amp like the scv1500 or scv2000...ive heard they are a little less hungry...what do you all think?

Get a better battery. No yellow top. Check voltage while you play it. Back the gain down till its stable. If you have to back it down a lot start saving.

What's a decent battery for my needs...or little better than my needs. I'd rather have more power than I need than less. Car is a 2006 maxima. Wish I could find a 200 300 dollar alternator like I see for every other car for that price.

I still can't decide on an amp. I want to go with a 2000 watt amp but with the other component amp I'm starting to wonder if id just be better off with an scc2000 for the subs
