jarrius Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 I have a Escape with a 110amp Alt. I have a very good feeling if i upgrade my system from a 600watt kenwood amp (15 years old) to a new AQ1200d amp i will have to get a HO alt. am i correct by that thinking http://www.soundqubed.com/AQ1200D-Amplifier_p_30.html There is a link to the amp i would like but i think i will have to upgrade the alt. 2012 Chevy sonic1xSQ HDC3 12 D2RF R1200d 140 square foot of Q-Mat(soon to be installed) 140.2Db sealed on the dash with TL 142 DB sealed on the dash with another meter (was dead on with the TL at a show i was at) 141 on music. strangeduck,on 02 Jan 2014 - 01:39 AM, said: when my car spins out i just put the car in neutral, turn in the direction i want to go and pucker my asshole
n8ball2013 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 do your big three. upgrade to a better bat and you should be fine. 2k plus is where you'd probably start to run into issues.

n8ball2013 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 as big as you can fit is always a good idea lol. if you go XS id probably look into a d3400. i think its about the same size as your stock.

WastedTalent Posted September 12, 2012 Report Posted September 12, 2012 Reading that inspires me haha. I have the same issue.. sort of. 110 amp stock alt, just some dimming lights when it's cranked up. was hoping big 3 would eliminate that but wasn't sure. With n8 saying what you just said, gives me hope it will be the cure! If not, then I'll just save for the h/o alt. But blood, look up XS batteries. There is a button up above for them. On their site, they do have a "vehicle guide" or something like that which will recommend what battery to fit on your vehicle. If you have questions, they have good customer service, so you can call or email and it'll be solved. Sheena = pedobear
jarrius Posted September 12, 2012 Author Report Posted September 12, 2012 Thank you guys so much i was under the impression since i am putting a 1200watt amp to a alt that only puts out 1350 watts of power i would be Ducked.
