[QUOTE="ekah, post: 8537732, member: 665125"] i have a cab1600 powering a single 12 dd at 1 ohm and a 4 channel amp powering jbl p660c fronts and 2 alpine type s in the rear on stock alt and 4 gauge to sub and i think 8 or 6 gauge to 4 channel do i need to upgrade my alt or do the big 3 or could i just run a second batt in the back i honestly wanna avoid doing the big 3 since my alt is behind my motor and towards the bottom so its hard to get at and i dont wanna upgrade the alt any time soon. so i wanna just do a second battery instead since its easier even though i dont know how to do it but im sure theres videos on how to. just wondering if a second battery will do me enough justice compared to just running of a stock alt which i think is like 110 amps. anyone have any suggestions on secondary batteries i would appreciate. side note my sub seems to turn off when music is cranked up and comes back on maybe 2 seconds after and plays and then turns off. not sure if its because its because its demanding to much juice which i cant provide with stock alt.
