^This.

If your still worried about it, get a cheap-o voltmeter on ebay and keep an eye on it for a few days.

the hifonics amps are a bit power hungry just get a dash mount volt meter

 

[sandevb]

yes i will get that too. you recon having the kinetik hc1400 at the front and having the xs D3100 at the back will make a diff? also whats the worst that could happen if voltage really drops? amp cut out?

You can fry stuff if it gets too low. The amp more likely but the alt very possibly.

Just avoid it if possible.
