Okay, so I got the picture of under the hood. I unhooked my level 4s from the amp, and plugged in my Alpines, and it worked just fine. What a sad day

Well, the light wasn't on when I checked, either way, I'll look into getting a new battery, and in the future a new alt. Was looking around and heard some good stuff from Mechman, and the usual Kinetic. What size battery am I going to be looking for? I was thinking the D5100 from mechman. Since my car has such small space I was thinking a powerful main battery would be sufficient. I'm not so sure I have enough room for a second, is one big concern of mine.

What matt said. And thanks, I've ran into my first problem already :| the subs randomly turned off, I checked the fuse under my hood, and on the amp, none of them are blown. Tomorrow I have the day off so I am going to check to make sure none of the wires came unloose within the box itself, or the ground etc. Are there any other possibilities that this could be?

As promised, here is a photo of the car I am doing this to. I'll get another picture or two tomorrow to show some of the interior, etc etc. So far, nothing crazy, no aftermarket alternator/battery/extra batteries etc. Although, with me upgrading soon to the new amp, would it be required to upgrade any of the previously listed parts?

Hi, just a little introduction. I am a big fan of the car audio world, and looking to be a part of a community that is the same way! I'm mostly interested in the bass section of it, so that's why I'm here. Just a little about my history with it. My first pay check ever was spent on a fusion Amp/12" sub bundle (I was so proud of it then!), and ever since, I have been slowly progressing further and louder. Second set of subs was some Orion Cobolts(sp?) as well as an 800 watt Orion mono amp to go with it, then went onto some I believe Alpine's.. But that still wasn't enough, and so here I am now. I decided on upping to the real stuff, so last Friday I ordered 2 12" Level 4 dual 1's, and just got them today, and installed into my car the first few minutes they arrived. I'll post some pictures of my car/sub setup later tonight when I get off work. I'm still a rookie, so don't make fun too much. Edit: Forgot to mention, no I won't be keeping that little Orion amp! I'm going to be upgrading that as well to probably a Audioque 2200d as soon as I get the money saved up to throw down on it, unless someone could suggest something else! -Shawn
