Default alternator

recommend one?

just got system, and bought a optima yellow top, and i had issues with the amps curring...


SO, the suggested solution after countlessly rewiring it was maybe trying a different altanator.

/\ what he said! you need a high output alt + a big three upgrade on your stock wiring and... a second battery couldnt hurt either.

Kinetik makes some of the best batteries for car audio out there..

do all three together and your problems will be solved!

Yup. 110 amps is plenty for most sound systems that generate a max of 1500 watts or so. I would also recommend a Kinetik battery and the big three upgrade for optimum electrical performance. If its still an issue, get an upgraded alternator .

I may just grab that 220 for my car! Thanks for the link!

Well, thats a fair bit of power but its class D power so its pretty efficient.
Upgrade grounds and alternator wire and see if that helps a bit. If not, upgrade the battery to a Kinetik then the Alternator.

Alternator is always the best upgrade but they are not cheap. I am also sure that 220 amp alt will rob your car of performance too. There is always a sacrifice when it comes to this kind of stuff.
