I will be running a 4 x 100 wrms amp (600 total) to my mids and highs that can each handle about 50-75 wrms. I also will most likely be getting a 1200-1500 amp to power 2 re se's. I have a regular walmart battery as of now, and are looking to find a perfect balance of safety (my car not dying out on me) and saving money at the same time. What are my best options? Here's a few that I've read about.
1) Put in new battery in better than the one I have.
2) Do the big three. But I've read this might not even be worth it if you don't have a h/o alt.
3) Get a cap, but read this is just a bandaid.
4) Get an extra battery.
I am trying to keep this as cheap as possible. I don't want to spend the money for a h/o alt and then to pay labor to have someone put it in because that is probably expensive. I could decrease the setup I have now to a 1000 watt amp or less powering 1 beefy sub, either way just looking for a solution to not have to get to many upgrades. I have a 1999 Infiniti I30 with a 110 amp stock alt, I think. I would really appreciate any suggestions as I know how important this part of car audio is and want to get it right. Thanks in advance.
