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

QUOTE(nightrider @ Oct 10, 2006 - 2:06 PM) [snapback]489963[/snapback] Finally, I have added a pic to my profile, what do you think? Nice setup with that alt. Now how about some stereo pics? If you don't want to put them here, go to sounddomain.com and make a car site there. I've seen this done before, but usually with setups over 1000rms. I ran a lot more than that with a deep cycle battery, one 1 farad cap and stock alt and it ran great in comps, but if i ran my system "balls to the wall" for about 30 seconds, my system would shut off due to undervoltage, but why the hell I would run over 145db's for that duration is beyond me. You must be running constant, low freq, heavy bass all the time to require a second alternator with only 1000 rms and one 15. oh well, if you can get all that power and for some reason require it, then go nuts and have fun doing it.
