SnowDrifter Posted March 9, 2013 Report Posted March 9, 2013 I ran my 3500 at .5 off the stock alt lol It's just a matter of how long you can keep your voltage up. Since it sounds like you've already budgeted in an alternator, I'd get the biggest you can afford from either DC power or Mechman. You will keep great voltage now and have room to upgrade in the future ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444

So im gonna get my 4 channel and upgrade my big 3, then get my battery for the back and THEN get my 2500. If I need an alt after that ill get it 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows
