You cannot effectively drive 1000w (RMS) amps using standard 12V battery supply. I have tried every trick in the book and you cannot maintain 14V for more than 10 minutes with the volume cranked up. I have now added a second high output alternator hooked up to a small battery in the back and two 2 farad caps. This goes straight to my Alpine MRD100 mono block amp, what a sound, sets off car and shop alarms continualsy!!! --------------------  More Power to your BOOM BASS |

I have no doubts that your systems are well put together, however you cannot run big bass amps off batteries as they require the power much faster than what a battery can give no matter what the size. Next, capacitors need to go between the batt and the amp, but they will lose their charge sooner rather than later. Most bass amps are rated at a constant supply voltage of 14V. You just cannot sustain that level of current with your lights, heating and engine all running and playing heavy bass tunes.
