WhiteLightning Posted October 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 You have much voltage drop with the cap and 1 battery? With the amp I had (Kenwood Amp) I didn't have much in the way of voltage drop. I've had the Alpine amp for about a week now and also upgraded the battery when I switched amps, and right now I could not tell you what kind of voltage drop I am having. Work and school have been busy. I'll try to take a look this weekend and see, if not I'll do it early next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowledge Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 welcome man dont be afraid to ask or use the search on top for way more info Quote REFF'SMy linkEBAYhttp://feedback.ebay...ck&myworld=trueI love car audio so much because I will never be done. I can never win, and I will never get it finished or perfect. It always has me coming back for more, I can never get my fill of it, but I get what I need.
