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!!! -------------------- |

These are the ratings from JBL for the Amps that have been used as examples. 78 to 190amps of current. This is by far way above what you can get from any stock Alt. The location of the Alt will prevent the fitting of anything bigger as it will hit the bonnet of the car. Please supply the batt details as I will swap out the one in the boot and let you know if its at all better?
