I have all new compents being ran off a 400 watt amp and 1 12 on a mono 1200 watt amp (trust me it doesnt put out that much plus i have the sub wired for the least amount of power) Im all bout sound quality and not so much crazy bass. I want to do the big 3 with 0 awg and need a battery with top post so i can put new terminals on. any help would be great.

What kind of car do you have? Regardless of vehicle I suggest that you look into XS Power. They are a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.

I love my Kinetik, but like nightshade said XS Power batteries are great also. There are tons of batteries you could get since you're not going crazy on the build. Maybe look into like a yellow top or something?

since you don't need alot of juice I would stick to a Red Top Optima. The red's are used for starting batteries and the yellow's are more for a battery bank.

Yellow top is the deep cycle, I just re-read your first post and if I understand correctly you're going to replace your starter battery? If so red tops are used to replace your starter, but also Kinetik and XS Power batteries will work good there too. Just take your time and look into a few different kinds

EDIT: Sully beat me to it, haha

thanks you all for your inpit. Been lokking at some prices and Kinetik are little to pricey for me, xs and red top are about the same and kinda leaning towards the red only cause i can buy it local instead of waiting.
