Jeep Guy 1608 Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 Stepping up my car audio system to 7100 watts RMS. Current electrical consists of an Autotech Engineering 320 amp alternator and 3 XS Power D3400 batteries with big 3 already in place. Should this be enough electrical to handle the added wattage?

ChevyBoy95 Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 On surface level, it looks like you'll be okay, but likely going to need to grab another D3400. And if you are going at it wide open, you will need every bit of that alternator output. What is the current wattage you are running?

Jeep Guy 1608 Posted September 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Çurrently running around 5700 watts RMS. Have had zero issues with it. Adding a Sundown Salt 400.2.

If it was a jump in bass amp size, you probably would see some change. Mids/highs will be a lot more dynamic where-as the sub stage will create a more consistent load on the electrical system.

Jeep Guy 1608 Posted September 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 Thanks for the reply. That's what I was thinking but wanted to get a second opinion. Making some upgrades and changing up a few things. Hopefully have everything installed and tuned within the next two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
