Ok so i was driving down the road had my system turned up to 30 out of 45 and all the sudden the subs amp and speakers and head unit were cutting out. for some reason it was cutting out at that volume which should not be happening since i have all my gains tuned right.

Fuking then as im driving home i turned it back up with bass bost lot lower than it was and my fuking car shots off. it started back up fine but im not turning that system on till i know wtf is up

Whats wrong?

Well other then that creepy ass avatar I'd say you need to trouble shoot all your electrical until you find something that we can help you with.

Also..... turn your bass boast off and tune with your HU

The lights were dimming a ton (just started happening tonight) and i dont have anything but after market battery from pep boys and big 3 . i had to replace the battery before because it was dying.

all i have are 2 12 re se's getting 600 wats ea. and BA SL80s getting 65 wats each. could it be the battery causing all this to happen is it dying?

get a DMM and test it out.

If its dead get a dry cell

if this is what the case is will that one battery up frot you mentioned be good or would u say get something for the back as well?

What kind of wire do you have going to the back?

 

[sleazebagger 10+ year member]

Having dry cells in front and back even for a small system is a good idea.

Don't make my mistake by putting the cart in front of the horse. You need a solid electrical or you'll end up paying for it in the future in burnt out batts, alts, and amp repairs.

Like I said, check your batt with a DMM with the car off first. If it reads under 12v then your batt is probably shot. Test it when your car is on and if it test under 13v then your alt could be shot as well.
