I am about to get my system installed and since my car and battery are almost 3 years old i want to put a better battery up front at the same time as the install. I have a old RF Power 1000.1bs for the subs and a RF Punch 400x4 for interiors. I had this same setup on my last car and I had no problems with the stock battery and alt but i only had that set up for about 3 months.
I want to only use 1 battery up front with none in the back.
I know 1500 watts isnt that much but i would rather be safe than sorry. The shop told me to go online and pick up an optima yellow top and i will be set but i am wondering if that is in face my best bet. I had a few shops also tell me my stock alt will be fine with this set up.
I dont plan on using playing the stereo while the car is off or anything like that..just a daily driver.
I did a search but most results came back from ppl with bigger systems and much more watts than mine.

Thanks!
