harrisonG Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 well last night while i was at a stop light parked, my music was bumpin and i noticed the lights were dimming ever so slightly. well i am going to be getting a second amp soon and i can only guess that its not going to help the situation... so i was curious what would help this? should i get a more powerful car battery? im trying to stay away from a new alternator and in car batteries just because im tight on cash and im not going for a slamming system. the system i am shooting to have is whats in my sig plus soon an aq4x90 and im deciding between a lvl3 12 or 15. so this is where you guys come in... what should i do? i want to make sure my voltage isnt dropping that much, i also know a lot of you guys are against capacitors (even though im not 100% sure why) but any help would be awesome Harrison Quote 2000 Nissan Xterra -Infinity 6020cs components -Infinity 692.7 6x9s -DC LVL 4 12 -AQ1200 -Pioneer DEHP860MP H/U -4 channel amp for mids and highs???

finkster Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 (edited) First thing Id recommend is doing the BIG 3...if you dont know what that is then there is a How To thread in the electrical wiring section. It should only cost about 35 dollars. Good luck man EDIT: also, even with the subwoofer amp added you should be running around a thousand watts, which isnt too bad on electrical. If anything i could see you running a bigger battery up front.

finkster Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Kinetik HC 1800 is the biggest u can fit then.

harrisonG Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 (edited) oh it shouldnt i meant 10 wide 9 height 7 length and the dimensions on the hc 1800 are 10 x 8.2 x 6.5 inches and this would work as a replacement to my stock battery right?

lanman31337 Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 If you're going to run a big system and plan on spending money on amps and speakers, your're going to also need to plan money to have ample electrical for everything.
