Time for a beefier alt, or do I need another battery?

[QUOTE="bananapehl777, post: 8700414, member: 679217"] I did think my battery was dying, so I just replaced it with a brand new one, but the same model, the Interstate MTP 35. The headlight dimming is still there, but not as bad I think. I think the addition of an AGM is going to help considerably. I may also install a voltmeter just to keep tabs on the system when I install the second battery. I have heard that halogens are very sensitive, but even the dash lights (which are not halogen) dim a little with bass notes. What my system really does not like is the punch bass where the subs are playing quick, short bursts. Makes my headlights into strobe lights almost lol. [/QUOTE]
