KickerKid58 Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 Planning on getting a DC 2k and want to know if I can power it by just upgrading and adding batteries without getting a h/o alt. I will be geting an XS D5100R under the hood along with another XS in the trunk. I know the 5100R says it can handle 2k watts as the primary batt but if I'm investing in a DC amp i want to give it plenty of power. Rockn a '99 Civic Lx Do you guys think just the D5100R as a primary along with a second XS in teh back will suffice? If so which size should I get in the back? Also already have the big3 and will probably do 2 runs of +/- from front to back unless it is really overkill... i dont think it is Thanks in advance!! -Andrew 06 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2 DC Level4 12" Soundstream TA1.3000d 4 RF Punch 6.5" Components 2 RF Punch 3.5" 2-ways RF Prime 400.4D XS Power XP950 +&-run of XScorpion 1/0 OFC My Civic Build

kam311 Posted September 22, 2011 Report Posted September 22, 2011 That should be good for electrical. The HO alternator would be a great addition in any case tho so far...
