white_boi_audio Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 well i was riding home bumpin some lil jon - white meat and i came up to the stop sign and slowed down to stop and i had my volume on 20 out of 35 and the car just stalled so i turned the music off and cranked it back up and just drove home. What do u guys recommend a like red/yellow top in the front of the car cause i really dont have room for a second battery and i still need to upgrade the big three and maybe a bigger alt i wonder if my alt says how many amps it is on it. My dad said i might need two batts but i said im only running 600 watts holla Quote "MY RIDE" 1987 Chevy Cavalier Z24 2.8L V6 -- CB Radio with PA speaker Head Unit: 7 inch Jensen Flip-out -- Speakers: 4 Visonik 6 1/2s and 4 Visonik 6x9s Subwoofer: One Audiobahn 18 - Sub Amp: Power Acoustik OV1-2000d 2000 watt monoblock amp -- Battery in back - Kinetic HC600 -- Sub box: Custom built 5 cubic foot tuned to 30 hertz Coming soon: Bigger Highs Amp, Power inverter "WhItE bOi AuDiO" "FEAR THE DUCK" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolwazabi Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 sound like since ur RPM's were going down... that will make the alt charge a lil less... meaning u might need a better alt or another battery... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 sound like since ur RPM's were going down... that will make the alt charge a lil less... meaning u might need a better alt or another battery... no it just sounds like his electrical had enough to keep it on. not really to do with rpm's. its kind of a "protection" that it shuts off. same with most amps. they shut off if the voltage drops too far down.

meade916 Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 big 3.....that helped when my honda was running 2 bd1500 on a stock alt. I could do the same thing. I dont see how 600w is doing that though unless you had a class A/B amp and a bad alt, complete with a battery thats not in the best condition. try the big 3 first see if that helps.

Eddy722 Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Your car shut down on 600 watts? DAMN! Do the big 3 first as it's the cheapest and very effective! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civichatch Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 I drop about 300-400 RPM wen the bass hits and im at a redlight. And ive done the big 3 and have a newer battery. So i think the next thing to do would be to get a bigger/better alt.
