[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8696802, member: 675210"] An alternator is going to charge your batteries somewhat slowly. Up to 14.4v typically coming out of your alternator, that's all. The Alternator is not supplying the power to your amplifiers. Your amplifiers are getting their power from the battery. Which are typically 3 to 4 times the amp output of the alternator at near the same voltage. Buy a second AGM battery, put it in the back and wire it correctly... again, double check those grounds and you should be good. If that single AGM is 600cca and you add a second in parallel you should now have 1200cca to feed your amplifiers. You aftermarket alternator shouldn't have a problem charging the batteries while driving with the volume pretty low. [/QUOTE]
