Joshslvl4xl Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Right now i am currently running an alpine mrp m2000 which is 2000 rms and plan to add another one soon. I already have a 240 amp irragi alternator and my voltage sits around 14.5 at idle and 13.8 when im at full tilt. i have one small car battery in the back which dosent help me at all its just nice to have it there lol. but my question is do i need to spend $1200+ on 3 kinetik 2000's at the local car audio shop or will the optima yellow tops do just fine for me. i barley have any voltage drop as it is now with just the alt. i know the kinetik batteries are top of the line but i really dont feel like i need all that Ride-1996 Toyota 4Runner Limited Edition Head Unit-Alpine iXA-W404 Front Speakers-Memphis M-Class 6 1/2 Oversize Subs-2 DC Lvl 4xl 15's Amps-2 Sundown 3500d's Batteries-2 Batcap 2000's 240 amp Iraggi Alternator Wiring-Memphis 0 Gauge Kit Extra-Compustar Alarm/Remote Start/Keyless Entry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo_frog Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I've warrantied three of my 2400s through Kinetik. You just have to get the approval form and submit it. They will send you the info on what to do and ship new batteries quickly. Need an install? Hit me up.[email protected]Got car audio questions?

97SSBlazer Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I personally have Yellow tops and they work fine BUT I have never used a Kinetik or an XS battery so i dont have anything to compare it too. I have No voltage issues what so ever even before the XS VCM. lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
