m0rtin Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 currently while listening to my system the bass "shorts out" on heavy bass songs or even when volume turned half way of max clean signal. im thinking its due to voltage drop?? my questions are: 1. will big 3 upgrade cause more stress on the stock battery/alternator from drawing more from it?? 2. will a true good 1 farad cap help with my voltage for short burst when it needs it? (even though i know a cap is like adding a band aid) 3. or even upgrading to a better car battery? i got 4 gauge wiring. just want a simple quick fix to be bumping loud again!

SIDE SHOW Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 big 3, but plz explain what you mean by the bass shorts out........ do you mean the sub amp goes into protect?
kirill007 Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 What is the equipment used and how does the electrical look like? Thinking is the root of all problems... You ALWAYS get what you pay for.
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 The big 3 is not a cure all. I'd like more info as well, what do you mean it shorts out? That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Rich Schenk Posted March 25, 2015 Report Posted March 25, 2015 Do the big 4 to start then upgrade to a the biggest agm battery underhood that will fit. (XS Power). We will be better to help you with knowing what equipment you our running. Where is your amp grounded to? How did you set your gains?
