[QUOTE="02WS6, post: 8692696, member: 678581"] It does, it makes a world of difference. Your amp may be able to provide rated power as a result but during extended listening times with heavy music you will eventually see voltage drop as the batteries drain due to the alternator not being able to keep up. I can't find any dyno's for the MD3000 - Only the MD1800 @ 2 ohms, 13.75VDC - Provided 2476 Watts of power @ 64% efficiency. Which equals 281 amps of draw. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20029"]20029[/ATTACH] Making a lot of assumptions, but with 95 Amp alternator and 2 AGM's you'll probably get 5-10 minutes of max (non clipped/distorted) volume before voltage drop/clipping begins to occur. Depending on AGM size. [/QUOTE]
