drumminian Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Ok so I have been running my system (2 kicker cvr 15s with a jl 1200.1 amp) on the stock battery and alt now for about 2 months earlier today I was driving and my headunit along with the rest of the system turned off at high volume continuously. Then my car stalled at a light and nearly had enough charge to do this. Do you think that upgrading the big 3 will fix this or will I need a ho alt? Or a nEw battery? Right now I let my battery charge by driving around the parking lo and it's fine for now. I also plan on buying component speakers and another amp soon so what will be best for me?
